Anime/Manga How many anime series can you keep up with at a time?

Anything between 7-10 in a season, but that depends on how much time I have. I tend to watch a completed season of 13 episodes in a weekend, if I'm lucky.

It's kind of easy for me to do, if the 7-10 series episodes air on different dates because then it gets me into a rhythm of knowing what's on when.
 
I can't keep up with more than one anime per season. Usually I'm just too busy watching shows on my never ending backlog.
 
1 at a time! I am not a multitasker at all and prefer to sit through a complete series before starting a new one. That being said I am happy to switch to different anime after finishing a complete season but I would still count that as finishing an anime series before moving to another one. Where an anime I'm watching is longer like HxH (2011), then I'm much more likely to be watching another series in the background so I can have a change of show. It took me 3 years to get through HxH so I think it was a smart choice as otherwise I would have not seen anything else in those 3 years :D
 
Zero, waiting week-by-week for new episodes is infuriating and I'd prefer to just watch it all at my own pace when it's finished. Nothing worse than finishing an episode and having to wait an entire week for the next one =/
 
I get overwhelmed with just one then leave for six months and find something new then stop watching that one and eventually find my way back to the original and finish it maybe.
 
It depends on what is currently airing, but I can usually juggle 2-3 anime series at a given time. I prefer to watch shows that are currently airing because this means I only need to set aside a 1-2 hours per week to stay up to date. If the show is really good and also complete, I then risk marathoning it, which takes my time away from work/sleep/chores. I can't risk that! I am slowly getting better at pacing myself..
 
It depends. However, if I must have schedule for watching anime, I would set it up so that I could watch two episodes of one show per day. Each day of the week would be a different show. Thus, as the weeks go by, I can watch several shows and keep up with them.
 
It used to be about 5 or 6 anime at a time plus a couple non anime series. But nowadays I prefer to binge watch whenever I have the time.
 
I'm keeping up with 6 this season, which may be a record for me. But there are so many good series out currently - sequels to Sound Euphonium, Yuru Camp, Idolm@ster, and of course my current favorite anime, Whisper Me A Love Song.

Mostly the number of anime I keep up with is related to the number of anime I find to be worth watching in any given season.
 
When I watched seasonal anime I regularly kept up with roughly 5-6 shows per season. Though it might change depending on whether I drop or pick up shows as the season goes on.

Watching anime is a hobby though no?
 
These days there's so much media competing for my spare time (and my not spare time since reviewing/analysing media can also be work for me) that it's honestly become really hard to have more than a handful of things in general going at once. I'll often have one or two anime series going though.
 
Most of the time it'll either be struggling to keep up with one series, or watching nothing at all. This current season looked really interesting to me though, so I decided to really try to get back into watching anime and to watch things as they're airing. So it's at the point where my AniList page is separating the currently airing shows from the "Anime in Progress" tab.

I'm currently watching 3 series on my own (Pokemon Horizons, Girls Band Cry, Whisper Me a Love Song), watching 3 with my boyfriend (Demon Slayer, Spy x Family, and Yuru Camp whenever we have the time to start watching this new season) and I'll likely binge Seiyuu Radio and Hananoi-kun once they're finished.
