Is all anime slow? Anonymous 2016-04-13 23:02:42 Post No. 140089040 [Report]

Sup. First time on this board, just started trying to get into a few animes here and there, and this question popped up.

Tried watching both Puella Magi Madoka Magica and Kanon, and just...I watched Madoka quite a while ago but the first episode felt pointless and the second episode just barely got the plot moving. I'm two episodes into Kanon and I still don't understand what the underlying plot is, if it even has one.

Did I just strike unlucky on these two, or is a very slow start common among anime? I can work through it if I figure it's going to be worthwhile, it's just that it takes a long time getting to that point.

Hardly my first but I'm not a frequent animu watcher.

It's generally slower paced than western media, if that's what you're comparing it to. The payoff is often worth it though, Madoka is an example of that.
