I've gone without anime before, not by lack of avaliability, but by merit I didn't feel like watching anime for a month.

Well I am a huge anime addict and I tried to live few weeks without watching anime at all. The few first days were ok. After a week I found it wery temptating to watch an anime episode. Somehow I managed to keep my fingers out of keyboard by doing something else. But as the time passed I got a grater desire to watch anime. Finally after 2 weeks I was free to do whatever I wanted - to watch anime.

If you are an anime addict, I challenge you to live few weeks witout anime. You will have much more freetime and you can do "different" things. Tell about your experiences :D
I was in the military. Try 6 months underway with 100 hrs of work a week and no time for even just the tiniest leisures.

Been there, done that. It was a fairly boring couple of weeks.

Dude, this post sounds like we're all drug addicts. DONT HOLD OUT ON ME MAN I NEED MY FIX!! I'LL SHANK YOU, I WILL!!!1

But seriously, the longest I've gone without anime was one year, during summer vacation. The reason: I had no TV, cable, or satellite. Hell, there wasn't even any anime movies that summer. I cried myself to sleep every night..... and thats how my soul died. :lol: It was torture during those three months, especially with no normal TV channels to watch. Yep, it was during September we got a satellite dish. Thats when I got my non-life back. Yep, life's been good ever since.

Where do you live? Tell me FAST! I sweare When I know I will move there Faster than you can say "Magegigedegigebaba". One year of summer vacation! I could sacrefice my family in a bloody ritual for that!


The longest I have goon without anime was about 6 months. The reason was WOW. Now when I have stoped (momentarily) I watch like 3-6 ep's a day. Sometimes more sometimes less.

I would not call myself an addict cause I sometimes have to hit myself to watch anime. Im just to lazy :) But when I get started I can watch for a long time.

That's one hell of a challenge...

That's like asking someone who breathes oxygen to breath Ozone instead.

It's richer, but it'll kill ya eventually...

LOL

Sure I can have more time to do other things.

Like oggling real life ladies, watching real porn instead of hentai with the wife, drawing, more gaming, more working to make $$$ to retire at age 35...

But the problem is, when you don't have the resources THAT MOMENT to do those things [aka unavailability], ANIME is nearly unbeatable to pass the time...
