  I dropped Frieren one episode in because it was too slice-of-life-y for my tastes. Maybe I’ll give it another chance someday, since it seems to be so universally adored. 🤷

  Dungeon Meshi got a hard pass because it was a comedy that didn’t look like it would have enough non-comedic substance to keep me entertained. (To me, roughly half of all “comedy” is outright cringeworthy and most of the rest is somewhat less funny than your average dad joke . . . and “funny” isn’t a quality that I tend to look for in my entertainment anyway.) Most people seem to like comedies, so I find their ratings tend to be inflated.
