That one week my anime backlog finally clicked, from zero to 14 episodes a day
Last Tuesday I had a bad cold, so I stayed on the couch with my old laptop and just let the dub of Gintama play in the background. By Thursday I was hooked on the subbed version of Oshi no Ko, and suddenly the pacing made sense because I stopped skipping the OP every time. The trick was turning off my phone and putting it in the kitchen drawer, that killed the 10-minute scroll between episodes. I ended up finishing a whole season in two days, which I haven't done since 2019. Has anyone else had a random sick day that turned into a marathon, or is my attention span just broken when I'm tired?
Ugh, the sick day marathon is a real thing! Once I had a fever and blasted through all of Attack on Titan in three days because my brain was too fried to do anything but hit next episode.
