As far as episode (or even time) length, what is the shortest anime series you have watched and completed? Note that can include an OVA title, but not a feature-length film.

The shortest anime I've seen was a one shot OVA called, Ichigeki Satchu Hoi Hoi San. Lasted only 10 minutes, though I would argue it had enough substance in it to be considered a "complete" title.

The azumanga daioh movie is like 10-15 minutes. But I haven't seen it

The shortest ive seen may be a 13 episode series. Like Air or Paranoia Agent.

Edit: I forgot about FLCL

The shortest series I have are Kanon and Ikki Tousen, both of which have 13 eps. I know FLCL had 6, but I'm not buying 3 DVD's for 6 eps. That's a ripoff.

for me probably Hoshi no Koe (voice of a distant star) or final fantasy 7: last order both were a half hour i believe

the shortest ive seen is FLCL

i would also have to say FLCL

FLCL

Anime I LIKED that was pretty short...or time was short...

Haibane Renmei-13 (took me a few years and I am missing a few episodes)
Pretear-13 (a few days)

Kaleido star Season one- 26 episodes, but I watched it in less than 3 days..

Gunsmith Cats OVA - three episodes over three videos, but I bought it on dvd with all three on.

Grrl Power which is a 25 minute OAV.

Full Metal Alchemist. 52 episodes.

The only other anime I`ve ever finished is DragonBall Z and Dragonball which are long...

And all the other anime I like are in progress.

Iria is 6 eps so that wins for me

flcl, but as far as individual episode length, then digi charat

Haibane Renmei - 13 episodes

Elf Princess Rane -- 2 episode OAV. I was enjoying it, too, I wish they had made more.

Lemme see... D.N. Angel, which was 26 episodes, and Tsubasa Chronicle, which has 26 episodes, too. They're still making Tsubasa, though, and I haven't seen episodes 24 or 25 yet. =(

The BLAME! OVA thing. like, 25 min I think (if that)

I remember watching long time ago "Blue Submarine No. 6" . It came on Toonami when it used to be on weekdays. I like tha ending theme song "Whisper".

I think it needs to be clarified. with OVA, it's easy to find 1 ep DVDs that are 25 minutes long, since there were a lot of one shot anime.

For TV series, I think the shortest I know of (episode length) wise were those 5 minute segments of You're Under Arrest (which shared the show with "Colorful" and another feature) or Azumanga Daioh which ran for five minutes each daily and a 25 minute episode made up of that week's shorts

For shortest TV series, I think Hand Maid May only had 11 episodes (most series run for 13, 26 or 39 episodes per season)

Voices of a Distant Star--25 minutes.
Pet Shop of Horrors--4 episodes.

The shortest anime I've ever seen is Moeyo Ken. It's only four episodes long and not very good; however, it's one of those anime that are fun to make fun of.

FLCL, 6 eps. But because it wasn't my favorite, I'll also mention Air. 12 episodes (technically). Yay!

I think the original Aa Megamisama was only 5 eps...

FLCL only consisted of 6 episodes?

I hope they air it on AS again.

Voices of a Distant Star

Letsee....

Chibits was a 1 ep like 16 min OVA I think it was :/
Either than other 1 ep OVAs I've seen, the new FMA OVA series that I'm downloading have 3 eps altogether, but the only 2 eps released so far are 11 and 6 mins long :/

....and now mentioned the Azumanga movie WAS very short too^^

It would have to be a tie between FLCL and Gatekeepers 21.

The shortest anime I have the complete DVD collection of as far as smallest number of episodes would be Chance Pop Session.

Flcl, 6 episodes, shortest anime I've ever seen, though it would be nice to get a flcl movie around.

Azusa Will Help! - OVA, 1 ep.
