TIL a simple trick to actually finish those long anime series

I had 'Monster' on my list for over a year, always putting it off because of the 74 episode count. Last month, I tried watching just one episode every single morning with my coffee. It took about two and a half months, but I finally finished it without ever feeling burnt out. The key was making it a small daily habit instead of a big weekend binge. It felt way more manageable and I actually remembered the plot better. Has anyone else found a good way to tackle those intimidating long shows?

Didn't some study say people remember shows better watching weekly?

Wait, does that explain why I can still quote every line from old weekly sitcoms?

Ugh, totally feel this. I binged that whole new spy show in a weekend and now I can't even tell you the main guy's name. But I still remember every detail from that mystery show I watched week by week last year, like the red herring in episode four. It just sticks in your brain differently when you have time to think about it, right?
