How big is your downloaded anime / backlog folder? Don't

>>157574311
I just streamed Koe no Katachi and I loved the movie. You can't stop me.

>>157574369
This.

My download folder on my active hard drive has some 400 GB. The majority of my collection is on external drives.

>>157574311
>having a backlog
I wish I could go back to those times

>>157574920
Switch to a better ISP.

I delete everything, so it's usually a dozen of episode + a single show from the backlog at best.
The only thing I keep is what I seed.

>>157574311
>Don't tell me you're one of those plebs that streams their anime
I prefer watching shows in bed on my phone instead of at my battlestation. So yes

It's not very big.

about 800GB
I download most of my shit in 720p and only get BD rips for the really good shit due to a slowass internet connection

2TB, shoutout to Coalgirls

Almost 8TB.

The weird thing is that I know that within my life I'll probably never watch it.

But I keep hoarding it anyway.

I'm one of those plebs who streams their anime. I'd rather torrent but comcast kills any torrent protocol after a couple of minutes of downloading by killing my entire connection. If the download is left up they pulse the kill-switch every 60 seconds.

>>157574311
Like 6 shows because I'm too poor to afford a big hdd, and most of my space is used by music.

>>157579092
>I'm too poor to afford a big hdd,
Do you have any idea how cheap HDDs are?

I'd say over 1TB.

I think that one day I'll have watched it all, then again, that's not even half of my backlog.

This desu. Sometimes I rewatch stuff but it's <5% so it's not really worth it to store it. Plus I have vestigial instincts to delete everything unncessary from the Windows 95/98 days where you barely had any hard drive space and you wanted to keep as much free as possible to not slow down the pc

~1.4 Tb out of 2
I don't really manage it in any meaningful way.

Only about 30GB, I keep the things I really like but I'm so used to having a small hard drive that I still delete shows I'm finished with despite having had a 1TB in my pc for a while that isn't even that full.

It's one coalgirls rip so 370 gb

>>157574311

>>157574311
My NAS has about 10tb of anime on it, about half of which is unwatched.

I seed stuff till a ratio of 10 then delete it.
I only download what I immediately plan to watch.

So at the moment, it's small (8GB) since there's only 2 series in there not counting currently airing shows that are seeding.

>>157574311
After it got deleted twice, 213GB.

>>157574311

I don't really have much of a backlog now.

504GB right now. I delete 99% of the stuff I've watched.

I really want to get stuck into my backlog, but depression just prevents me from doing things. Even playing games is a chore half the time.

About 150 GB. Most if it is backlog shows, but I keep a few shows I really liked or I think I might want to reference at some point.

581 GB for my backlog, 834 GB for my archive. My archive is kinda inflated because I have Urusei Yatsura taking up 354 GB, JoJo's taking up 118 GB (almost 10 GB of which are manga archives), 81 GB are Monogatari, almost 100 GB for Eva and others, but I guess it balances out because I own some physical stuff like the Haruhi BDs.
My backlog is also kind of inflated because I have lots of Lupin, Conan, and One Piece episodes there, plus a few Gundam series I still need to watch.
Anyways, a 3 TB drive was a great investment and I highly recommend it, especially given how cheap storage has become.

Exactly

Fucking streamfags

I only download if I'm sure I will someday watch it a second time. I've downloaded 4 shows. and one (Haruhi) has already proved to be a mistake.

That's a disservice to the creators, they want you to watch it in Blu Ray quality with as big a bitrate as possible.

1.16 TB.

My archival and backlog folder on my external is 351 GB. I usually delete after watching but I'm starting a larger archive. I've only just started on it so it's still small.

My folder where I keep things like one-off OVAs that I have yet to watch and my seasonal shows is only 9 GB.

even worse.

I stream everything via SMB from my NAS.

Come at me.

>>157587009
I don't think either of us are disagreeing with you.

200 gigs of anime anime and movies so far since im going on vacation soon and I can't trust hotel internet to download at half decent speeds.

>>157586537
>Kissanime
well of course faggot

>>157587288
Are you going to try and claim that your streaming site is somehow better? They're all shit.
At least HS rips can be cleaned up somewhat with debanding.

>>157574311
I have no life my backlog hasn't been more than 10 episodes for the past 10 years.

>>157574311
The chance that'll rewatch something is under 50% and I know there's tons of animefans on the interwebs so there's no need to hoard it on my hard drive. I hope it'll always be there for me to stream it when I need it

>>157587364
hey crunchyroll is pretty good

The only thing I ever stream is rasslin and that's because it's the only way to get it. Torrents are just reencodes of the streams.

The fact that there are people that legitimately believe this is concerning.

I download every episode I watch and then replace it with bd rips after they are released. From there, I burn each series to disc and put them on the shelf ordered in alpha numerics. At one point I lost ~600gb of japtoons because I rewrote the wrong hard drive. Disc last forever. Disc a best.

>>157587885
>Disc last forever. Disc a best
Boy, you're going to look like an idiot in 100 years.

>>157587885
Would be simmilar price to just buy another hdd than buying dvd/bd drive and all the discs and cases and the time spent... not worth it just keep a backup.

>>157574311
There's no anime worth watching this season so I've just been rewatching old shows online.

Close to 10TB

God damn you Coalgirls and EG

>>157574311
a true patrician only downloads his waifu's anime, and streams everything else.

anything that doesn't contain his waifu is a waste of hard drive space that could be used for material of his waifu.

Something like 20 series and movies, which is constantly expanding as I move into older and more obacure anime

>>157589382
Fucking pleb. I have a 32GB SD card that I keep waifu material on.

Holy shit. /a/ really is dead if we have this many streamers in this thread.

I dont stream or torrent. I sneak into Japanese homes and hide in the walls and hope they watch something good.

>>157574311
I have a NAS server with about 8tb of stuff, and stacks of manga and LNs because I know moon and buy those. Anyone with less than 2tb shouldn't even be posting on /a/.

Never again.

>>157591078
Hoarding is good, especially when you're seeding all of it. When the apocalypse comes, the hoarders are the only ones who're going to have any anime. You'll be lucky if they share.
