Long or Short anime series?

[Zero Blitz]

In my experience, short anime always turn out better than long ones just because the plot doesn't have to be spread too thin, they generally don't require filler episodes and they usually have some source (e.g. manga, light novel, visual novel) so the creators of the anime adaptions are able to spend more time/effort/money on making the anime look good, sound good, etc rather than building a plot which probably won't have much to it. When people make manga, or write light novels or visual novels they are able to spend so much more time on the story than an anime write is likely to have. Not to say that a long anime can't be good, if it comes from an already lengthy, well-written source. Naruto was good until the fillers started. Bleach was good until the same fate. I'm sure that one day there will be an awesome anime over episodes long that's just as deep as Air. ;P

depends of the anime because some of them are really interesting and when it ends it s so uncool...but others ...for example if the anime is kinda boring...better a short end

i'd prefer short ones because i get bored of the long ones after a while and so i end up not downloading anymore

I likes short ones since I can't stand the ones that are too long and drag the story. Some are good long but some not. Depends on the storyline to me and the capability of the writers to keep up the interest.

Long or short, bouth are fine with me as long as the story is good.
But if there is an ending i like it to be a good one and not a ruhsed one or a vaigh? ending that lives me thinking what it was all about.

i dont think i realy care if its long or short-if your watching good anime it shouldent make a diference if its long or short..........good anime keeps you wanting more even when its over

It depends on the story. Some go on and on forever....just to go on and on forever (Naruto, Inuyasha). Others go on and on forever....because they have a long story to tell (Major-although it's not too long yet, Prince of Tennis). Short ones are usually good because they stick to the story and don't have lots of filler episodes. Sometimes they end too soon, though.
