Have you ever feigned sickness just to watch anime and stay home?

Never crossed my mind but then again, never had a paying job for more than a decade

I was too much of a goody two shoes but secretly envied the braggers who'd tell us they got away doing that.
To be fair, most of the cartoons I was into happened during Saturday's early mornings and week evenings.
If at all, I think Zenki and The Vision of Escaflowne were my biggest temptations in that department.
