Yeah haha, I think I’ve only once read a story longer than 50 episodes, I dropped it at about 60 lol. I’ve seen a few that are still going strong by the late 40’s, but it’s definitely a skill to keep the plot fresh for so long. There’s no way I could write one that long and not bore the heck out of everyone lmao.

It kind of depends on the story.
If I’m invested in it from the beginning, then I’ll read as many episodes as they come out.
But if I see a story that has 40+ episodes and I haven’t started reading… I might give it a miss.
If the story has very short episodes (5-10 mins), I’ll be more likely to read more chapters of it as they come out.
If the story has 3+ seasons, then I might give it a pass.

hey!! 
10-14 episodes is a good amount since you will focus on the main parts of the story and won’t drag the story on. good luck in continuing writing your story
however, for me I like when the stories are around 20-30 episodes (if the story is really really good, I would also read more than 40 episodes). it always depends on the plot and if I made a connection to the main characters!
and this is my story if you are interested

I think 20 episodes is a good number. 30-40 episodes maximum for any story, otherwise people lose interests. They are better off doing a Season 2 after 40 episodes. I have never seen a story with 100 episodes thank goodness!!!

I think that’s a good number! I usually like around 20 episodes, but if it’s a really good story I’m fine with it pushing 30 or 40. However, if it is that long I don’t want it dragged out so it purposely will be that long, and if it’s shorter (like 10), I don’t like it being all jumpy, and I want to know the story. So, I guess it kind of just depends…

20 -25 is how long my stories are. I don’t like extremely drama stories. There is a plan that I always follow.

I think 10 minimum, 30 max. If it has multiple seasons then maybe 10-15 episodes per season.

For me it has to be longer. I dont like a story that is 10 chapters long because you can finish it in one day once its fully released. I’d say have more chapters then 25 so the reader has some more time to read.

I think that a story needs at least 15 chapters because it would feel too short otherwise.
In my opinion it also depends on how long each episode is.
But if a story has more than 40 chapters I usually give up reading after ~35 episodes if the story isn’t very interesting. 
The story just shouldn’t feel like it’s too rushed or too dragged. 
For me, it really depends on the story…I would read a finished story with 10 episodes and one with 50 but also like you said 100 episodes are too much. I would probably loose all interest tbh 
Anyway, it would be great if you could read my story!
