hellokitty4 Posted September 3, 2011 Report Share Posted September 3, 2011 I prefer the longer anime because the shorter ones seem to very short and I want to watch more of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yukaru00 Posted September 5, 2011 Report Share Posted September 5, 2011 I don't mind watching long-running anime series if they are not as stupid as Bleach and Naruto these days. Stupid fillers, made by one stupid studio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allycat413 Posted September 5, 2011 Report Share Posted September 5, 2011 I like watching a good amount not over 100 episodes. But if the series is amazing I want more than 24. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjoxford2007 Posted September 5, 2011 Report Share Posted September 5, 2011 I enjoy a little of both. I guess it just depends on how involving the story is. Most of the anime out there though is pretty short (around 24 episodes). Or at least most of the ones I've downloaded, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelzbuckwheat Posted September 6, 2011 Report Share Posted September 6, 2011 I would have to say that if the anime is as long as, let's say Bleach or Inuyasha (not pointing fingers or anything), I wouldn't stay committed to it because I like to have answers questioned and questions answered. But, a series like FLCL is too short, because an entire series of that would be simply amazing. So a length like Soul Eater or Rurouni Kenshin would probably be my cup of tea.

swbl01 Posted September 6, 2011 Report Share Posted September 6, 2011 I don't really have a preference but I find that a lot of the short anime series that I have watched I wish were longer. I also find it easier to watch a short anime without subs as opposed to a long anime because there are a lot less episodes and it isn't as time consuming.

RFS671 Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 I feel like with shorter anime series the story is a bit more conclusive. With the extremely long series, it can get annoying that nothing really gets done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
72night Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 Depends on what you'd call 'short' and 'long'. If 12/13 or 24/25 is considered short. I definitely prefer shorter series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jclub Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 Prefer the longer run anime but watch them all from 12,24, to 100+ episode series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunter Posted September 22, 2011 Report Share Posted September 22, 2011 In my case I prefer shorter and longer animes until they aren't boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drgs Posted September 22, 2011 Report Share Posted September 22, 2011 Definately longer, I just can't seem to find many long term anime's out there that I enjoy. I dont think short anime's should be extended for the sake of it or with "fillers" but if i find an anime i like, i would prefer it lasted longer or was ongoing.

oondawg Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 I like the longer ones around 50 eps or so .... not the really long ones like bleach and one piece Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vespalyn Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 Only recently have I decided to venture further outside the Bleach realm. With Shakugan no Shana/2 being the first one that I've completed, I'm already more partial to short animes.It's also less time downloading. Currently trying to fill up a new external HD with as much anime that I can download until I build a better computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgomez246 Posted September 25, 2011 Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 From what I have found, shorter anime usually has more action or plot to it than the longer ones since its all compiled into a few episodes and not spread out over 100s of fillers O.O In most cases when I reach the end, I wish that it was much longer >.< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lockhart Posted September 25, 2011 Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 Long animes take too long to finish... I don't feel I have much time or patience, and it feels like they drag on soo much... but I mean, it's still really bad if an anime is longer than it's supposed to be, if they have fillers or just drag on even if they're short. If people tell me that an anime is over 100 episodes I just say no, I really can't watch that long to see how it ends. I mean it's not that I only care about how it ends but sometimes it feels like long animes make you wait and wait and wait on purpose and it just gets so annoying.

rocky26au Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 I like short anime but the long anime ones are fairly good too. In my opinion though, anything longer than 100 episodes is stretching it. I'll probably drop the anime and the come back and watch it later on. But the short ones are classic and memorable, so I like them alot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomeMexicanGuy Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 Shorter series are usually the better ones. It gets really hard to keep a story fresh and unique past the 50 episode mark (with a few exceptions like FMA or Kenichi) and also for an audience to commit that much time to one series.

lemmingllama Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 Longer is only good if I want to sit down and watch for like a week straight. Otherwise short animes under 30 episodes are for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shunsuke Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 Depends on if I like the series or not.Air Gear is a nice size 24 or 26 episodes I wish it was like Onepiece or Shin-Chan 500+ episodes. I wouldn't complain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
