← view full thread · What anime you really tried to like, but you just couldn't?
death note. i watched the first two episodes and was like "meh." maybe i'll give it another go someday...
I wouldnt recommend first half masterpiece second half ruined it
it's not like you can't watch through episode 17 then drop--i wouldn't say you'd get quite as much closure that way as if you sat through the entire rest of the show but i feel like it would still be a pretty satisfying place to end things
deciding from the first 2 episodes is a bit misleading, like we are talking about a 37 episodes long show and i don't think just 2 episodes would be enough for you to decide if you want to watch it
For a lot of anime, that's true. But there are plenty where it is enough.
For Death Note i think it's a fine amount. the atmosphere of the first 2
episodes is the same for the rest of the show. Mystery, dark, main character
getting himself into questionable things. If a person isn't enjoying the first 2
episodes, then it's likely they won't enjoy the rest.Personally, i enjoyed the series the first time because of the mystery and
waiting to see what happens. But rewatching the show is unbearable from
right off the bat in the first ep because it's way too dark and gloomy for my
taste and Light isn't a likeable character to continue watching his journeyYeah, you are mostly true. Thinking back again, the first 2 episodes does a really good introduction to the series however the mind-games in the rest of the show can be what attracts them to watch the show for some people, so i think watching more would help more about deciding if you want to watch it.
Even if you decide to watch it then the show goes to shit in the 2nd half anyways
