Well, it's 5-minutes episodes to begin with, so binge-watching them only take a few hours.

I feel like there’s a variation of the “You guys are getting paid?” meme in there somewhere with the fact that Yami Shibai got ELEVEN SEASONS. Most anime don’t even get a second!

To be fair, I'm sure Yami Shibai is a lot cheaper to produce.
Could've finished the first season and found out they still had enough budget for several more.

I assume it's also easier to get greenlit If you only need twelve 3 minute stand-alone stories for a season as opposed to the 4 hours for most shows without having to worry about promoting the source material.
I mean Teekyu also had 9 seasons, but you could watch all of it in like 3 hours.
