New anime are getting short
SchoolDaysEX:
I actually think that 2-minute slice of life animes are great.
Nikkoru:
I only really care when they've got a fairly hefty manga and cut it down to one arc, and that's it.
Code Breaker, which isn't my favourite fictional work by any stretch, isn't worth watching for only 13 episodes. The manga is over a hundred chapters and several story arcs, 13 episodes is barely an introduction essentially.
Or for a LN example, Legend of Legendary Heroes. All this world building, character development, and basic epic-ness was never going to fit into 24 episodes and the anime knew it but royally screwed over the invested viewer.
So, 13-24 episodes? Fine. Write original content to fit the time allotted or commit to the time needed to adapt your source material.

Chitose Get You! had 26 episodes, despite it being a 3-minute show. May be the exception to the rule, but still, it's there.
I don't really mind short series, but they have to be entertaining, and not all of them are.
Mangirl! sucked, but Aiura and especially Yama no Susume were quite enjoyable.

Yama no susume, and especially Aiura, were both shows that I feel deserved to have full-length anime, not just a few tiny little shorts. I really hope they both get one someday.
Actually, I swear I read somewhere that Yama no Susume was going to have a full series made or something. Or did I just imagine that?
