    For me? Frieren.

    I am still gonna try two more episodes, but episode one was boring and underwhelming to me. Not that anime needs to have action, because I also like slow films (one of my favorites being Rear Window), but episode 1 of Frieren did not hold my attention that well.

    At the end I said out loud “this is what everyone is hyping about?”

    Maybe I change my mind by episode 3, but if not I guess I will just have to leave my enjoyment of it to the memes.

    Neon Genesis Evangelion for me. The original ending where everyone was clapping around Shinji was so weird. It’s at its best when it’s about giant robots fighting the angels but gets really strange once the characters are out of the cockpit.

          When you’re done with that marathon of a video (based on post timestamps I’d guess you’re about halfway through it now), you might enjoy Brilliant Century Duck Crisis

          Explanation

          Regular Show is a (brilliant, IMO) western cartoon that eventually did an anime parody episode that started with parodying the NGE opening - which is what I’ve linked above. The plot of Regular Show builds up slowly so I wouldn’t actually recommend jumping in with this episode as I’m not sure it would make much sense… but I couldn’t resist linking it anyway, sorry.

      I was the same. Watched the first season as soon as it came out and thought “It’s a little murder-porny but I’m kind of intrigued to see where the plot goes.” Then after the first season the plot got worse instead and I lost interest. People seem to love it though.
