Shoutout to the guy who explained the 'three episode rule' for seasonal anime on the Crunchyroll forums last year.

I was about to drop a show after a boring pilot, but his post convinced me to watch through episode 3, and now it's one of my favorite series.

Honestly thought dropping a show after one episode was the move. That forum post made me give a few more a real shot, and now I'm glad I stuck with some slow starters.

Tbh @taylorhunt, that's how they get you. Next thing you know you're five seasons deep on a show you swore you'd hate.

Fair point. One episode is a trap.
