>Most of /a/ in 2017 hasn't even seen 100 shows Embarrassing.

I haven't seen more than 30 animes and I still know how to talk about it better than most of you.

What constitutes as a show? Why would I watch a thousand shows if shows are at least 12eps long?

>>162079712
going off my list im on 361, but I rewatch some series and have watched nearly every long running series available, so the length can add a variable to this. Alternatively ive watched 14531 episodes

I feel like I've watched a lot more than this, but I guess I only really started tracking stuff seriously after ~2015 or so and didn't get a MAL until 2016.

>>162079976
Why would the episode count matter? Watching 500+ episodes of something is no more but watching the same shit for 500 episodes, doesnt really generate any additional value. You arent more knowledgable about the medium due to it.

>>162079793
You are a delusional shitstain.

Its you who apparently does that since you felt that it was necessary how you have a lot of episodes watched.

After this season I'll pass 700 shows watched. I need to watch more movies though. I'm only around 140 but most of backlog is now movies.

Minimum required for posting

>>162080347
You were trying to inflate your e-peen in your first post by saying that longer-running series should count as multiple series. This is in a discussion about how completing more titles makes you more qualified to discuss anime on /a/.
Therefore it is only logical to assume you were speaking in terms of the discussion, instead of randomly spouting about how much "fun" you have with long-running anime, which adds nothing to the thread at all.
But keep backpedalling.

I have over 170 completed shows on my HDD and those are just the ones I've not deleted cause I liked them enough. I'm certain I'm easily over 500 shows though.
I doesn't really matter as long as your not a skipping or 1.5x fag and actually enjoy watching all Anime.

>>162079712

Ironically, I have not watched as much anime as I normally do this year.

>>162082773
>skipping
Like someone who skips episodes or something? Do people actually do that?

>>162082573
Guess there's a large entry barrier, 'll be back after 670 shows.

>>162082906
No, like skipping forward in the episode, clicking forward in the time bar on the bottom.
Yes, people do that. Just like how people literally watch anime at 1.5x or even 2x speed.

>>162082773
>actually enjoy watching all Anime
How much of a deranged retard do you have to be to unironically do this? Do people who think like this simply lack standards, taste, personality, opinions, or a combination of all the above?

Don't worry, in hell those people will be forced to endlessly watch filler episodes at 0.25x.

I had 1000+ titles on MAL when I stopped watching anime 6 years ago.

>>162079712
I have watched +200 anime without including any ova/movie or any kind of other shit, but that was 2 years ago, since then I haven't even completed 10 anime

Every year this elitist stupidity gets higher numbers. You can watch every anime relevant to the medium long before 1000

>>162082682
He's right, there's no way someone who's that into anime doesn't have a backlog, especially if the number of 'watching' is a number low enough to be only currently airing anime.

>>162080780
Because you project your ignorance and inferiority complex onto better posters to feel better about your inadequacy.

>>162083116
Just cause I watch almost everything doesn't mean I lack any of those hence the 170~ shows I've kept because I enjoyed them enough to rewatch episodes or arcs.
When you watch at least half of the shows every season for years the numbers just add up.

Oh fuck I just finished 0079 and was looking forward to continuing the series. Is Zeta really that bad?

Am I supposed to count how many anime I watch?
I've probably started watching hundreds of shows but I end up dropping half of them because they either suck, or just aren't good enough to keep my interest over other shows.
I don't willingly watch garbage either, I don't think the number of "completed" anime is any indication of someone's taste or "patrician status". Someone with 1200 completed anime like >>162080585 would likely watch anything, no matter how shit it is. I hold myself to a higher standard than that

>>162083537
I only score 9/10 or nothing at all. there is no compromise

>>162082574
>>162083302
Maybe he doesn't use a list to maintain his backlog and just knows what he wants or has enough drive space to download everything he decides he wants to try? My "want to watch" section has like 8 anime in it but I sure as hell have more than that I want to see.

>>162083814
No, i'm watching and really liking it kamille is annoying tho

>>162079712
Honestly, what's the point of watching 100s of anime series just for the sake of watching them? Why force yourself to watch something mediocre/sub-par just to say you've watched it? This is a serious question, I had a friend who would watch tons of shows just to tell me how boring she thought the majority of them were.

>>162084158
Sometimes I watch shitty anime with cute girls so I can fully appreciate the H-doujinshi. I don't know why I bother when the ones with the best porn are typically the good series and the shit ones are lower reward for a more painful investment.

I'm getting close to 100, I'm in the 80s right now

>>162082594
>I have no idea how many shows I've seen
That's why, retard.

>>162083814
I'm watching it at the moment, and it's good. The MC makes me laugh because of how dramatic he is though.

Friendly reminder the required minimum to post on /a/ is 300 completed series (majority not being OVA/shorts/movies) and lurking for 2 years before posting.

>>162079712
>tfw only watched like 3 to completion.

It's not even that I'm scared to finish them it's that I'm scared to start something new.

A monkey could watch 100 shows, that's easy shit.

What actually matters is if you've retained a significant amount of information from the things that you've watched beyond the most rudimentary things like a fucking plot summary.

Ultimately if you can't even remember half the details in a show then your opinion and thoughts on it are ultimately worthless regardless of how much anime you have watched.

>>162091180
I agree with this, because we usually forget things we didn't like as much and that we didn't pay enough attention to.

He's right, I have a friend who watched like 25 anime at same time he did catch up to me (300 watched) but he don' t remember a single plot point or name even in his favorite anime.

What's the point of you watching anime if you don't appreciate it and just rush everything and some people just watch 2x speed.
