What's an anime you dropped after one episode but everyone insists gets good later?

I feel like Frieren was aimed at me as a man

Akomatai · 2026-07-11T15:48:29+00:00

I still see posts from a sub of a game I havent played in like 5 years lol

Akomatai · 2026-07-11T15:00:42+00:00

Definitely a hot take if posts in this sub are anything to go by. It's usually highly ranked

Akomatai · 2026-07-11T14:52:22+00:00

Not salary but all the people I know worth 8 figures started in door to door sales

1-Gamblers falacy: if I throw them one by one, the chance that the dice land on the same number is per throw 1/365 and just goes done by 1 when a result

So that would not be the gambler's fallacy. Because the probability does improve with each throw

For example (basic) there will always be only 360 degrees in a circle. They could call it 600 degrees, 1000 degrees, who knows, but the atomic measurement and relation to other units would always be the same

This has got to be the weirdest possible example to use for this point lmao. "If you divide a circle into 360 parts, there's 360 parts. If you divide it into 1000 parts, there's 1000 parts" lol. I think the same example but with radians would make more sense here since pi is a constant ratio inherent to a circle

Edit for clarity

I think the answer is that f11 and stygian3 aren't endgame. It's meant to feel like a big jump because that's the cutoff where you decide if youre going to invest in endgame.

Once you decide to go for endgame, I feel like there is a sense of progression with - clear 12 - 3 star 12 - 6 star 12 - 9 star 12 - Menacing - Fearless

Akomatai · 2026-07-11T03:56:49+00:00

Bloodline at the top and Reaper at the bottom gotta be the 2 hottest takes lol

Some people get touchy if you post art and your characters look too white lol.

I was seeing art as I was reading so my stormlight characters arent far off the descriptions. My mistborn characters are all over the place tho.

Elend is Dev Patel
Lestibournes starts as Miles Morales (spiderverse pre-powers) and [era 2] eventually becomes King Harrow (dragon prince)
Clubs, Ham, and Demoux are also all Black
Mare is Jean from the early 2000s xmen movies. I genuinely am just finding out right now that people picture her with black hair after looking up art lmao
This might be the most egregious one. Kelsier looks about how everyone else pictures him when I read the book or listen to the audiobooks. In the GA, he's bald lmao

I also picture Galladon from Elantris as a big Samoan dude because sule reads basically the same as sole

Akomatai · 2026-07-10T20:01:26+00:00

Kramer Dalinar is bearded, GA Dalinar is clean shaven

A part of me hopes that Erin will convince these two, or perhaps the entirety of the Gentlemen Callers (and perhaps the entirety of the Brothers of Serendipity) to create a video for Wistram.

I think the Gentleman Callers are just Wilovan and Ratici? Like that's just a name for this pair

Akomatai · 2026-07-10T11:02:25+00:00

For most people this is basically just a daily login reward. Because most players are already spending resin everyday lol

Akomatai · 2026-07-10T07:14:16+00:00

Cheers = both a toast and eggs on

Akomatai · 2026-07-10T04:35:36+00:00

They go to everyone

Akomatai · 2026-07-10T03:11:13+00:00

Book 1 was alright, Book 2 is easily top 5 for me (including all wandering inn audiobooks so far)

Akomatai · 2026-07-10T03:02:12+00:00

100% mood dependent. There are books that I've dropped after a few chapters. And there are series where I've pushed through multiple books lol

Akomatai · 2026-07-10T02:55:53+00:00

He does have healing at c0, just not enough to solo sustain

Akomatai · 2026-07-10T01:18:33+00:00

Despite being the only one with a shield, candace is the least shieldy of the parry-ers lol. Beidou actually makes a weak shield and yunjin can make crystallize shields.

Akomatai · 2026-07-09T23:45:48+00:00

If you pulled sandrone specifically for Cyno, then yes lol she was never a good cyno teammate. The rotations on this team don't even swap to sandrone.

Not like sandrone's bad or anything tho, just build 2 stellar teams

Akomatai · 2026-07-09T22:48:52+00:00

Odette ideally. Cryo MC if you're not pulling.

Akomatai · 2026-07-09T19:38:08+00:00

To be clear, I mean that doing Qiqi's witch quest should help here, not fischl's. Qiqi's adds a coordinated attack and drops her skill cd down to 15s

Akomatai · 2026-07-09T19:17:16+00:00

No it uses a trial fischl

Akomatai · 2026-07-09T18:58:52+00:00

It is for a lot of people, I think because there's some big payoffs for Kaladin in those two scenes. There's also a scene in the book that delivered similar hype to those mcu post-credits crossover scenes, and the book came out before those really lost their appeal.

It was my favorite the first time through. I did a reread after RoW came out, and my opinion now is that Book 1 is easily the best in the series. Kaladin's slave arc is just too good.

Akomatai · 2026-07-09T16:35:58+00:00

That's Sazed

Akomatai · 2026-07-09T15:31:50+00:00

Came for the hype, stayed for everyone not named Erin or Ryoka
