What is the longest anime episode of all time? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

I've noticed that most anime have 20-minute episodes, so I've decided to start finding shows that go higher than that. Obviously, a lot of shows have double-feature episodes (such as RIN: Daughters of Mnemosyne), but here's the top 5 I've been able to find.

Made in Abyss: "The Challengers", "Gold" [reportedly around 60 minutes each]
Hellsing: Ultimate: "Hellsing X" [67 minutes]
Pluto: "Episode #1.1" [71 minutes]
Oshi no Ko: "Mother and Children" [82 minutes]
Key: The Metal Idol: "System" [97 minutes]

Please do not recommend episodes that are below an hour in runtime.

There's a few episodes of Detective Conan/Case closed that aired as 2 hour long specials. The longest I can find rn with just a quick search would be episode 345 at about 117 minutes.

That's a good answer.
