Yes.

I even consider 26 episodes to be too long for me.

50 might be the borderline for me. I usually consider 13/26 episode anime to be on the shorter side but have only seen a few anime that were in between 26 and 50 episodes, it seems to be one or the other so it would be weird to say that 26 is short and 50 is long.

In the end I'll say 50 is on the long end of medium length

No, I actually consider 50 episodes to be the perfect length for an anime. I only consider 200 episodes and up to be long.

That's pretty long. Anime with more than 12 episodes is long.

In a way. I mean it takes me a while to finish an anime that has about 20 episodes because of time. I don't always get to watch anime so it takes a while to finish one. Which is why most of the anime I watch range about 12-26 episodes. So watching an anime that has 50+ takes even a longer time. It's not as long compared to others, but to me I guess they're average.

As others have said, length is irrelevant. It's how long they can keep the quality up. Bad-short feels three times as long as good-long.

Depends for me, something like Steins;Gate which is 26 episodes felt like hell for me... because I just didn't enjoy it... but FMA:B which was 64 eps felt like I watched it all in a few hours.

One Piece has helped me get through longer series though...

Anything above 2-cour is longer than normal, hence it's long. Seems pretty clear to me.

Great point, enjoyment can play a role in what anime you feel is long or short. Serial Experiments Lain and Sky Crawlers felt really long and drawn out to me even though they were actually short (13 episodes series) (2hr 2mins movie). On the other hand Saint Seiya is a breeze for me even though it is 114 episodes long. When I reached episode 100 I didn't even realize at first that I had watched so much episodes already.

Thats really true, but only to a certain extent. I think the longer a show gets the better it has to get to not feel long. FMA:B also felt really short because it was so goddamn great.

I would say a show HAS to be great for me to enjoy it despite its length, aka something Id rate 8+ and the longer it gets the better it has to be.

If you mostly watch anime that is 20 to 30 episodes long (which most tend to be) then it's easy to see why more than that can seem like allot.

12 episodes is short.
26 episodes is medium.
After 26 episodes I start to consider it long.
I have't watched too many long anime to begin with.

I can see you

Seeing as todays norm is 12-26 episodes, 50+ is considered long,
but do i consider it long.......no, seeing as i have watched LONG anime like One Piece, Naruto (Shippuden), Bleach...etc, 12-26e are not long, if the story line is good or at least decent i prefer longer anime. Even though for some anime its good that they only had 1-6 ova or a movie ( Break Blade, Jin Rho: Wolf brigade...etc).

52 would be more what I would consider "mid-range" as in longer than the standard, but not what I'd consider long.

Short=1-14
Standard=21-26
Midrange=27-99
Long=100-375
Anime Death Occurs=400+

How about from 15-20 or 376-399? Would that be anime purgatory?

Not much tends to fall in those ranges, so I just passed over them....maybe "Midlife crisis" and "Alzheimer's" I guess. ;p

Bakemonogatari is 15 episodes. And Nisekoi is planned to run for 20. And there's also Bleach, which I believe was 376 episodes (or was it 366).
Those are the only examples I can think of... but I see what you mean. Gotta love the Lost Years :P

Used to the average anime lengths so 50+ usually feels really dragged out and I can lose interest, even if its good.

Nope. Longer runners are stuff like: Naruto, One Piece, Fairy Tail, Gintama. All the things that are over 100+ are long. 26 episode series aren't considered long to me; they're way too frequent. A 51+ series is considered long to me as well, but not that much.

id say the standard of most really good anime is 22-26 eps
stuff that exceeds its value in eps would be long example:naruto,bleach,one piece dbz, inuyasha
stuff thats 50-75 stretching it unless well written the less filler the better

I don't really refer to long anime by episodes but the anime in which an episode makes me look at how long it's still going on and think "Another 10 minutes, ughh". If I refer to long anime by episodes I guess it's 100+ anime, luckily most series have a season of 12/13 episodes. Sometimes it's even 25.

It usually takes me 4 days to finish a 12/13 episodes...
5 main aspects I base my ratings on:
1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it?
2. Is it better than Breaking Bad?
3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it?
4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL?
5. Is it actually good?

Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant...
