Don’t let them fool you! I saw all first season (20-something eps), anm while it’s true he ends up growing a bit, it’s not much, or at least so it was to the point I saw. Not sure if it’s even worth it to have to endure 20 episodes just to get to “the good part”.

I’ve been able to resist One Piece, I can resist RE:Z

2 episodes frankly isn’t enough for any of the qualities of Re:Zero to be apparent. Subaru starts out as an ass and it’s an important part of his character early on. His shitty behavior is basically the sole cause of the first actual character defining arc
Yeah 2 episodes definitely isn’t fair. Although I don’t want to get stuck like One Piece fans saying you need to watch at least the first 100 episodes lol

The episode that got me hooked is episode 15 but to avoid spoilers all I can really tell you right now is that the first arc or two is somewhat typical isekai bs in that Subaru thinks and acts as though he’s a Mc in one of those stories. In doing so he humiliates himself among other things. In short it’s not a story about some dude who gets isekaid, has checkpoints and gets everything he wants.
If you are just meh on Re:Zero try get to episode 15 at least, that’s the best episode of season 1 imo and episode 18 puts up some serious competition.
That’s good to know but idk if I’ll make it that far. Not that I don’t believe you, but I have a lot of other animes I could be watching instead.
