It's probably about 5 hours when I marathoned Fate stay/night last Dec 31, 2007, just after the New Year's eve celebrations.
I was able to do it because Jan 1 is a holiday, no work requiring me to wake up early.

Ah Nadesico Marathon... I did the same thing, only I'm not sure if I had the movie yet. Watched it dubbed, then again subbed, though that was with breaks. It's one of only a handful of series I can say I've watched completely both dubbed and subbed.

I believe I watched 15-20 episodes of Yu Yu Hakusho once (courtesy to every episode ending in a cliffhanger). But I had short food/lunch breaks so I don't know if that counts.

That's nothing compared to my friend. I lend him my copy of Fullmetal Alchemist, and he watched all 51 episodes in 1 afternoon/night. The guy's amazing. I wouldn't ever have the patience to do such a thing.

The only time I dedicated a whole day (from morning, say 9:00 to late evening, say 23:00) to an anime marathon has been 4 years ago when I was sick in bed for a flu. I was getting better, but staying in bed and watching tv was the max activity I could aspire to do in those conditions. The anime was Card Captor Sakura, don't remember which episodes (the anime is long) but I'd say a total of nearly 20-25.

Other marathones I've done in a single session, were generally never longer than 6-8 hours. I can spend half of a day marathoning a 12 eps series, but if it's longer I split it in parts. Been at least 2 years since the last time, by the way.

The first time I watched Monster, I guess. I started early on Saturday (skipping OP/ED) and finished in the early Sunday afternoon. Never slept, nor felt like sleeping.
Usually, if I have nothing planned for the week-end or don't go to work, I might (re)watch anime from 13 to 26 eps. in one go.

I've only really ever done a marathon two times...

Once, a couple years ago, when my cousin wanted to watch all 24 episodes of Love Hina from the DVDs I then had (Didn't have the Christmas/Spring/OVA DVDs yet; God help us if I did)...We did that marathon, do the math for how long that lasted...We ended up staying all the way up until 6AM, which is something I regularly do these days on the weekends, but a couple years ago during our high school years, that was a lot of time without any fucking sleep...

I came a couple times close to that over the past two years, watching episodes hours on end of Bleach and Naruto to catch up to the current-running episodes, but never anything nearly as long on a single sitting as I did with my cousin on Love Hina...

Well, except for a couple weeks ago after New Years Day, where I was stuck in bed sick over some stupid virus...With nothing to do and no motivation to do anything as active as playing PS3, I decided to run through all 25 episodes of Code Geass R2 in a single sitting...Straight through all by my sick self...One more episode watched in my Code Geass marathon than I did with my cousin during the Love Hina marathon...Holy shit, was I restless...

That's my personal record...

I personally can't stand doing the "same thing" for more than a few hours but when a title hooks me it is a scary thing. I think my record stands at 15 eps straight of Elemental Gelade before needing a rest. So something like 7 hours.

I was stuck in bed with a bad flu a few weeks ago and I spent the whole day (excluding a few breaks for meals and 7 or 8 hours for my naps, obviously) watching Eureka 7. Painful headache after that.

Just did this earlier.

Minami-ke + Minami-ke Okawari + Kannazuki no Miko.

13+13+12=38 eps

I remembered it was about 19 hours. With all the breaks in between. Yes, 19 hours. Madness and laughs, although Kannazuki wasn't event meant to be funny.

Downside? Now I can't make out which is [Saotome]Mako-chan and which is Mako-cakes

It was in the summer, when I finally decided to watch all of the episodes of Naruto (though I cheated a bit and skipped like, 50 ;_ Good lord, 2 weeks of just sitting there watching it, and then I would sleep and get up. (Reason why? I was too young to get a job, and I go away to school so none of my friends were at home)
Ugh. Almost as much as a waste as when I tried to watch all the episodes of Inuyasha. Atleast Naruto actually still had a plot ;_;

I highly recommend you to do the same for One Piece. You will be handsomely rewarded from the experience.

The longest marathon i've done is probably about 100 episodes of one piece over about 2 days.

I don't know anymore. I know that there were a few days where I've done nothing except watch anime, bathroom, and eat, but I do not recall to what extent or how many hours in a row. I'll never do it again.
