shorts worth watching (episodes are <15 minutes)
Anime
i like to watch series with short episodes when i am drinking my coffee/redbull in the morning, or during a quick break from studying. c: here are the ones that i enjoyed, and some others i plan to watch (only listing first seasons)
almost every short series has a lower average rating- i assume its just because, for the most part, there is less of a plot/storyline, less time to love the characters, and less emotion portrayed in the short episodes/seasons. they are still enjoyable in their own way though!
(i've got a bunch more on my crunchylist but cannot be bothered to list them all... also, if you have more recommendations, please send me a friend request + message!!!)
