I am someone who enjoyed Stein's Gate in the current day, but I do have to say that you will only enjoy it if you finish it. The first half is literally all buildup for the last 3rd of the season and it is all done so well, but it does require a lot of patience and if you cant handle Okarun's Chunnibyoness I get why you can't finish it.

@damnation6667 Ай бұрын

The initial episodes are hard to get through but after episode 12, everything is so good that the later whole half is like the best thing in anime and its honestly a fair trade It had the perfect ending for a TIME TRAVEL FICTION which is so hard to do. And when you rewatch Steins gate again you feel like the initial half becomes sooo much more interesting and i feel like that makes this anime much more lovable and just amazing experience with this perfection honestly Like how rare is good ending these days and this one has the best one!

I watched steins gate well after it aired (late 2010s era). I got to episode 6 or so and dropped it, rewatched again a couple years later and it jumped up to one of my favorites of all time. I'd imagine each passing year attention spans are getting shorter though, so maybe even that's an opinion of a bygone era

True about One Piece. Greatest of all time in my mind, but I 100% would not be able to get into it from Ep 1 if I was a first-timer now. The Live Action did great things for One Piece. Hitting the Final Saga is gonna bring a lot of attention since OP stands head and shoulders over all other Shonen regardless, but having a digestible form is essential. Can't wait for S2

I love the Solo Leveling takes and this is coming from a BIG solo leveling fan. I agree with the points - I don't think the IRL game is lame per say - since its just leaning heavily into the power fantasy trope - but the animation needed to be at the level of Sung Jin Woo vs Igris consistently, I feel that would have elevated the show.

I'll back up Peter and say Mato Seihei no Slave or Chained Soldier in English is a really good action ecchi (fan service) series. I really like the art style, character designs, as well as the world building/setting of the manga. The anime adaptation wasn't bad, but I prefer the manga. However, it is an ecchi or fan service series, so I can't recommend it to everyone unless they are fellow degenerates. I find it interesting that Syd can't watch old anime. She's missing out on a lot of good shows. I didn’t think Solo Leveling was that bad. Granted, I read it back in 2019 and didn't continue or finish it.
