Yes, yes, nice healthy target, exactly! I also find that they tell the story better in less episodes, though it's sad when it's over, you feel that you just watched something worth while...but when it's long you're like 'WHAT WAS THE POINT OF HALF OF THOSE EPISODES!?'

EXACTLY EXACTLY! It's the EXACT same way for me. Give me the answers and the story already in one sitting so I don't have to pause, go to next episode...'cause with that pause I'm tempted to do something else.
Preeetty much. Just kidding~ I think my limit is anywhere around 15-20. After that, I've got to be really motivated/have a lot of time to kill to finish it. Most anime nowadays though has around 12 episodes which is a nice, healthy target.
That's almost exactly like me! I'm more of a movie person myself though. A series every once in a while is okay, but I'd rather sit down and get my whole story in one go without any interruptions.
If it reaches the double digits in episode length, I'm out. Well, not quite, but I agree. Having so many episodes to watch can be daunting.
The first episode is usually a decent benchmark for estimating what's to come. Though sometimes it needs another episode or two to really pick up. But other than that, yeah my reaction isn't too far from yours.
"52,068 episodes? Nope. *throws laptop out window*"
If it gets up there...I don't know what I'm going to do. Unless I'm absolutely in love with it I probably won't go on...sometimes if I don't even like the plot synopsis enough I won't even attempt to watch it.
Haha, 26 isn't that bad for me, but if it's like in the 40s or 50s then gahhhh, it's too much for me~ Although I don't really have a say since I haven't been watching an anime for a long time haha!

XD If that were true then I think you would have seen very few anime since most anime hits at least 10 episodes! XD
