I do nothing but homework, which I do at night. I try to get in at least 8-11 episodes on days with school. My entire day is systematic, so I have no problems with my schedule. I'm the type to memorize everything, so studying is irrelevant.

Yeah, I work.

The majority of my completed anime came back when I was still in college.

Nowadays, I can only watch about 5 or so anime per season...IF I'm lucky.

Also....watching an entire season (12 episodes) can easily be done in ONE day if you have 7 or so hours to kill.

So, it's not THAT hard.

easy dude, do all the shit you need to do, and then watch shitty anime. Don't sleep. Then after 5 days of sleep deprivation, fall asleep for a week.

Eventually you'll fall into a coma or something but you'll keep up with all that seasonal shit.

Other than being jobless, basement-dwellers, degenerate neckbeards or NEETs? It's probably due to padding from specials, OVAs, shorts and films.

The vast majority of anime I watched was during college, so maybe youre trying too hard :P
Anyway theres only like Drifters cause Hellsing mangaka and To Be Hero cause anime needs to be saved from the rest of the shows airing.


Oshii is probably the only director that loves dogs. He thinks he's a dog himself.

That's right, its slime! It will dissolve your clothing slowly before my eyes!

This is pretty legit, trust me. I do make time for anime after my classes and work but there are some people I've seen that go to college but fail their classes because of skipping and watching anime in the cafe. They make me cringe

Idk how your college life looks like if you literally do nothing but studying and sleeping with no free time whatsoever 7 days a week. That's fucked up and I'm worried about your health if that's really the case.

Even people who work 8 hours 5 days a week (normal 40 hour week) have the weekends and about 6-8 hours of free time per day depending on how much they sleep and how long their commute is. As an university student I have more than that. I could fit in even more than the ~4 hours per day average I spend on anime while still advancing my studies at a normal pace but I do have other hobbies like going out with friends and I tend to waste too much time on the general internet as well.
I probably regret this post by now.

set your priorities, convince yourself to pass this semester, end up watching anime all day instead
that should do the trick
and binge watch, that's the key, there is no such thing as "i will just watch 1 or 2 ep today"

all you have to do is spend some of your free time watching anime, and watch each episode the day it comes out

unless all your life is nothing but things you ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO do, i don't see how you don't have free time to watch anime

Yes being in work or in college will make you watch less anime, anyone who watches so much is clearly not working enough or is skipping college.

But you can certainly watch sufficient amount of episodes if you are a person of order and know how to make a good schedule for your time.

Been watching a long time with a couple long (years) breaks, back in middle/high school era.
i multi task so i can chat with people and watch at the same time, or play a game and watch at the same time.

So it is possible with everything as i get quite busy and still manage, although i haven't felt like doing much these last 4 days or so plus having a terrible headache, i am also single so there is that so a girl doesn't take up any of my time.

If you don't have time to watch anime, then don't watch it. It's not something you make time for.

If you have free time and are willing to spend it watching anime, then do it.

People who watch almost every seasonal anime exclusively spend their free time watching anime. As far as people who have lots of anime on their list, it's mostly watched anime accumulated over time. Some people are a mix of the two.

Many people also have a lot of fluff in the numbers, meaning that many of the anime on their list are either single episode OVAs or shorts, adding to the illusion of having watched a lot of anime. The number of days spent is a better measure of time spent watching anime.

I notice a few of the higher 1000s completed people watch 6 or more episodes a day. Without opening, ending, or commercial breaks that's about 20 minutes an episode or two hours of watching anime a day. Normal tv watching time for the majority of people.

If you pace yourself to six episodes a day. You will watch 2190 episodes a year. Divided by the current cours length of 12 and that's 182.5 series a year.

Years of watching a lot of anime is how you get massive lists. Also ovas, movies, specials, and other short shows can pad your numbers as well.

So you are saying you spent all your time at your house studied ?

Except the days I went hangout with friends, What I did was, finished my homeworks, have a dinner, have a shower then watch anime as much as I want untill I get sleepy because you got nothing to worry about in college.

I do supposedly 40 hours of study a week. But I try start watching anime by 6pm so I can get in at least 12 episodes. Some nights I'll watch less and do OVA's instead if I'm gaming with friends.
It's just balance and planning I guess. It's definitely doable but it's also different for everyone. Some people have more study and work to do than others so it's definitely whatever your schedule and stuff allows.
