I've watched 200-odd episodes (plus several movies) of Detective Conan, AKA Case Closed, over the years, because sometimes I just need a mildly entertaining timewaster. So I've seen maybe 20% of that series as it presently stands.
Other than that, some long-running shounen nonsense (Hero Academia, Black Clover, Bleach, Fairy Tail, possibly others I'm forgetting), all of which would have been better if they were shorter. I've also seen most of Sailor Moon at one time or another, and it would have been better if it had ended sooner than it did.
The Slayers (104 eps) and Kyo Kara Maoh! (117? eps) were the longest I can think of that were worth watching a second time. Saiyuki (if you count all the variously-titled bits as a single series it must have passed 100 by now) might also qualify if it ever achieves a decent ending.
(I'm sure there are others I'm forgetting—I've seen a lot of anime.)
