Monster. One of the best anime series I've ever seen.
I tried. I tried so hard. Attempted 3x to watch this. First time I got 5 episodes in. Second time I got 12 episodes in. Third time I got 16 episodes in.
Each time, I tried so hard to continue going. I'm sure it was great when it was released, but holy shit it was such a SLOG.
I'm with you. I watched it all though. They really needed to speed things up.
IMO, it's not that great.
It's a seinen. If you're more into shonen, then it's not going to be as action-packed as you might be used to.
I don't normally watch the same thing more than once, but I've seen this one three times (first time in college; then some years later I wasn't sure I finished it the first time, so I rewatched the whole thing again; then more years later I watched with friends from work on our weekly anime night)
I've watched plenty of sienen that weren't as bad as this.
I go it recommended and watched it all. I kept waiting for it to become good. 🤷
