| Like everyone else is saying, One Piece. |
| Bleach. It's the only big shounen I haven't watched. I should've watched it in my early days. Nowadays I have no time. |
| Legend of the Galactic Heroes is probably *the* one although I start to hesitate any time I plan to watch anything over ~24. |
| I second Detective Conan, but I'd be more interested in the subplot between ShinichixRan tbh |
| Sadly, anything with 100+ episodes feels intimidating to me. I’m a completionist for the most part, so it would be hard for me to commit to a series I may not be obsessed with. That, and I like watching a bunch of different series, so I would not want to devote too much time to just one series. |
| too many episodes: one piece, detective conan i usually end up liking long running stuff once i finally get around to watching it but those ones are just too intimidating bruh the max i can do is like 400 episodes lol (i think the only thing ive ever watched thats like 700+ is pokemon & naruto if u count all the series together) confusing watch order & too many spinoffs that overwhelm my brain: fate, gundam |
| One Piece, because I can't stand 1000 episodes of a series where everyone is retarded. |
| Bleach and Fairy Tail probably And I watched hundreds of eps already but it was so long ago I don't have the will to do it again |

| One Piece is my favorite on-going show ever and there should be quite a commitment when you sit down and watch and for its credit, it's very rewarding but then, if your time is short, you might skip on some other Anime shows that you might miss out because of it. That's what happened in my case and now, I'm catching up on everything. The last longest Anime series that I've watched was Cardcaptor Sakura which is 70 episodes and you know what, that made it to become my favorite Anime ever. Also, I completed GaoGaiGer which is 49 episodes, that isn't too long and I'm about to dig into Angel Heart because it's part of the City Hunter universe which greatly adore. |
 |
| Basically any shounen that isn't Fullmetal Alchemist. I can go for 50 episodes. Not 500. |
 |
| After catching up with One Piece, long series don't scare me anymore. Also, longer series tend to be my favorite like JoJo and Gintama. I have said this before and I'll say it again, it's a shame that people will miss amazing shows just because it has "a lot of episodes". |
 |
| Fullmetal Alchemist. I've heard it's superb and really damn good; Brotherhood being the #1 in here. But I'm kinda fearful I lose interest on it because it has a lot of episodes. Gintama is another one I have on hold for the moment for having so many episodes and too little time and energy to watch them. |
| Pretty much any of the ongoing (and finished) shounen ridiculousness, like One Piece and all that. I think the only exception I'll make is Gintama - I'll get to watching it someday, only because the little that I've seen of it already is pure and utter hilarity so I'm really intrigued. The rest, heck no. |

Excusememasen said: I second Detective Conan, but I'd be more interested in the subplot between ShinichixRan tbh There is not much going on there....because Shinichi is Conan 99% of the time. But there is also Sonoko with the karate champion + her obsession with Kaitou Kid. Heiji and Kazuha. And pretty much everybody from the Tokyo cops (we even get flashback about inspector Megure). Others... "Love is all around" in Detective Conan. |
| Gintama.. watched some episodes, movie and followed the 2nd season a bit. I find the show entertaining, but the number of episodes are too much, so I gave up. |
  |
Don't miss GaoGaiGar Final - it's movie quality OVA. Best action and visuals in the franchise. |
| Nah long runners are the best, you live with the characters and let things simply exist, it's nice. Switching your mentality from length to a matter of interest makes watching anything (or doing an activity in general) so much easier. If you get through one, you can get through anything. |
| Sailor Moon. I really do.... but I really don't. In fact, most anime over 26 episodes I find intimidating these days. I found it more encouraging a few years ago to conquer the amount of episodes, but I'm less likely to start a series as soon if it has a lot of episodes. But most of all, Sailor Moon. I sort of like it, but it's not my priority. also, Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu, and the Gundam series. Gintama and Pretty Cure to an extent, as well. @ecstxsy without missing information? For me it takes 30 minutes to an hour to finish a single volume. |

| Naruto and One Piece come to my mind now. Naruto is also in part because I just spoiled me most of the story with videos that Youtube recommended me. One Piece looks interesting and I watched like 200 episodes a long time ago on TV, but now I don't feel like to start it. |
 |
| I watched One Piece until its latest episode but I just don't feel like watching Detective Conan |
 |
| I wouldn't say I don't want to watch them, but it might be difficult to invest in, and that series for me would be Detective Conan. Unlike One Piece where you can watch the series with the same pacing as the manga on onepace, it would take me maybe 4-5 months to get through the 900+ episodes and dozens of movies and spin-offs without cutting out the filler and not trying to burn out at the same time. Though I'll get to it one day, I'll stop myself and stay to one massive series (500+ episodes) for once every year or two. |
| all of them, im doing a 100 anime challenge but after im done with that probably none |
| yum riceballs i just want a baccano! season 2 |

(Still Magic Kaito 1412, Lupin III vs. Detective Conan and Lupin III vs. Detective Conan: The Movie are worth it.) Yes, there are some hints in the movies about the show but they are very rare and you can go without them. And if you go with the manga it's relatively fast to read and pretty close to the TV series (well, not in the beginning but after certain point - definitely). |

Even if they are unimportant to the main series, if you take a look at my list, a lot of the series that I've watched are 100% finished (OVAs, movies and all (excluding airing and PTW stuff)). It's just how I roll when watching anime and adding stuff to my list. |

I am just informing you that Detective Conan is one of these franchise in which you can ignore everything else besides the series. On the opposite side are shows like Youjo Senki. You should definitely watch its movie since it's part of the main story. |

I'll keep that into consideration when watching the main series first and then the other stuff afterwards when I feel like it. |
| Literally every long running Shounen ever |
 |
| I'm at the age where I have to be a little more picky so there are a few anime like Detective Conan, Gintama and Hitman Reborn that I want to watch but won't because of length |
 |
| heh none, only cowards do that...:^) |
 |
| pretty much all of them. I don't go out of my way to watch long-running shows because it is a commitment to stick with one show for anywhere over 50 episodes. Besides, they do get boring if you watch too much of one show in a short amount of time. I'm sporadically watching One Piece and Pokemon on the side, but at this rate the shows themselves will stop airing by the time I catch up. |

| Like nearly everyone said here: One Piece. Probably also HxH but it is at least on my to-watch-list. |
Shogo Makishima... just an unemployed bitter lit major who wanted to be a cereal killer. Remember, kids, it is called looting, not shoplifting. |
| Definitely One Piece, friend of mine suggested it but the total amount of episodes just turned me off |
| One Piece, I really don’t feel like watching over 900 episodes and counting because it still airing. |
| I find long series to be quite enticing; the longer a series is the more likely that I will add it to my PTW, providing that it is interesting enough for me (as with every other series). Besides, long series tend to get better the longer they go on, especially in terms of characters as they grow on you throughout the journey. The plot, most often than not, also gets many opportunities to expand its reach and flow better. Long series can also fix their faults later on. So my answer to the question is: there isn't any long series I'd reject just for being long. ...That said, I'm reluctant to start anime with complicated watch orders :P |
