My attention span is not as good as it once was so it's a little tougher for me to sit down and watch, say, six anime episodes back-to-back. When I got really into certain anime I'd literally spend my entire day just watching episodes continuously, but that's harder to do now lol. I can probably manage 2, maybe 3 episodes in one sitting nowadays. What about you?
 
Maybe three episodes a day if I feel like watching something when I have a meal. I might watch youtube or read something instead, though.

There's no limit, really, but honestly, I haven't really watched anime in awhile due to cough things I cannot stated here. So. I usually can do about ten in on sitting, sometimes a whole 12 episode season if I feel like it.
 
usually 1 episode a day because of fatigue but if I feel just cool enough and the 1st episode of the session ended on a massive cliffhanger, I'd watch a 2nd
 
It heavily varies depending on how invested I am in a show and how much free time I have! Back when I was a teenager, I watched the entire Shiki anime (22 episodes and 2 OVAs) in one sitting because I was that hooked to the story LOL. I can still binge-watch a 12-episode series if my adult responsibilities allow it, but my current average would probably be around 4 or 5 episodes :chansey:
 
It really depends, my attention span is so much different then it was 5-6 years ago. When I really got into One Piece back in 2019-2020 (riiiight before lockdown) I was probably watching like 12 or so episodes a day from December to early March? But that was a really extreme scenario lmaooo. Nowadays, I can probably sit through like 3 episodes before my attention span moves elsewhere unless I'm really interested in it.
 
I usually only watch three or four at any given time.
 
It can be 1-2 or 4-5, depending on what I'm watching but also whether or my brain is dealing with depression in low tide or not. I kind of need it to be a good environment for me to watch too because I live with people who don't have good etiquette in regards to watching things in the living room (read: blasting social media shorts/tiktoks without earbuds).
 
As with several others here, I'd have to say it really depends on the series. And honestly, on my comfort as well. We don't have a proper lounge room setup here right now, with just an old and fairly small screen TV and a sofa that's.... serviceable, but not really that comfortable. Most of my watching lately has been on an iPad in bed, and I'm not managing more than 1-2 episodes like that. With a nice comfy sofa, some snacks, and a day where I didn't have a lot of work to distract me though, I could easily go hours and hours.
