How much anime have you watched?

Okay. Here is everyone's chance to brag or do whatever they want concerning how much anime they have watched. This is something I am doing for kicks and because I have no life whatsoever. No. Really, I just think that this might be a bit on the fun side. Just a couple of rules: please post your sources to minimize the chances of someone making up the amount of anime they have seen. Also, just post the number of series you have seen in their entirety and the ones you are still watching. That means no dropped series or series you will not watch. If you can also provide the amount of time spent watching anime, even better. So, here goes. I have seen 384 series, movies, OVAs, etc. in their entirety and only parts of another 77. This is according to what I have posted on http://www.animenewsnetwork.com. My screen name there is scrwbll19. It is the same at http://www.anime-planet.com, where I have about 5-6 months of time marked.

That works, but it is more fun this way because anime-planet does not have all of the series I have seen like Ghost Hunt.

Whoops. I have it highlighted and all, but I must have glazed over it. Oh well, but the second Minimi-Ke series is not in there. There are probably some others, but I do not have the time to do a list by list comparison between that site and my animenewsnetwork account... :?

I think I'm at ~200.

I was at ~140 three or four months ago, so I expect I'm at 200 by now.

The only anime one can watch too much of is bad anime.

Oni, define "too many." I know people who think that too many is only after they end up like some Korean StarCraft players: dead from dehydration. I also know people who think that too many is anything over a glance, so I guess it depends on the person...

Well, once you reach 1/3 of your entire awake lifespan, I think it's too much anime.

Well i guess i give the term "too many" when i frequently have to burn off DVD every month to make way on my collection of hard drives for more anime.

I have in total at leased a 1terabyte of accessible space, only 60-70GB are for music and a measly 30-40GB for programs.

I have in addition to that, 63 VHS tapes of various anime, which are for all intended purposes in the garage since we threw out the old VHS player 7yrs ago.

Most memorable series i had was:

Ranma 1/2

Patlabor TV series one

patlabor TV Series Two.

You're under arrest

Elhazard Series one

what-it-called? the one where this girl is whisked away to this parallel world where the main hero pilots this mecha that use only swords, with a big jewel form a dragon heart on the front? and he has white wings?

Nadesico

I have 560 disk of 600MB VCD of various anime with Chinese subtitles, some series are entirely dubbed in Cantonese.

I have three 280 soft DVD cases full of various Anime DVD's that i have burned off.

two are completely full, 4.6GB x 560 = 2.576TB.

The third has at leased 40+ empty slots.

As for my official DVD anime collection, i have three boxes of DVD's, each one roughly holding 30+ DVD's. some have two inside, cvan only remember four of them.

I have 10+ complete collection i forget exactly, the rest are movies or loose dvd's.

I have:

Eva platinum collection.

Rune Hunters

Yukikaze

Macross TV Series

Macross 7 Series

Nadesico (love the series!)

Vandread

Rahxephon

Ghost in the Shell: SAC

Ghost in the Shell: 2nd GIG

that's all i can remember off the top of me head.

I know there are more, but i can't seem to bring up the titles, i hate it. all i can remember are like the characters and the theme songs.

how frustrating.

:roll:
