I even finished watching Technolyze recently.

    I’ve had long break (I mean like 7+ yrs) from watching animes and recently started watching new stuff in my free time.

    Honestly it’s not bad, but the hell with all of them having such a slow pace. Literally none of them have a finished story, all in long ongoing phase with plans to run for ages.

      That’s just the natural result of so many of them being based off of manga, but there are exceptions! Takopi’s Original Sin and LOOK BACK are both recent excellent anime that don’t suffer from these issues. One of them finishes its whole story in six impactful episodes, the other is a movie that wraps up in under an hour. Both will make you cry.

      By the way, have you ever had that feeling – “I need to finish this episode… But when the hell will it end?”

        Eh, not really. I mean unless episode sucks. But I’m mostly having issue with unfinished stories rather than episodes being bad.

        Like I’ve watched multiple 20-40+ episode titles that about ran to sorta culmination point… so I’ll have to wait like 3-5 more years to see how they end.

        I like when a season actually has a finished story. Even if the next season would use the same characters.

        Recently I got that watching episode 1 of Takopi’s Original Sin not because of the pacing but because it was really intense and I needed to relax and I didn’t realize that the first episode was double-length!
