    Stein’s;Gate—talk about a slow starter (and I was watching it when it first came out, meaning I was waiting a week between episodes). I came pretty close to dropping it before it finally picked up the pace.

      I’m in an anime club and we replicated this.

      It was such a slow burn that when we told a new member to watch the show before we all started Stein’s;Gate 0, all the old members kept insisting it was worth watching, but were very clear that they wouldn’t start seeing any payoff until roughly the middle of the show.

      But what a payoff!
