Always going for the steak or do you try other food?


Recommended Posts

My brother in law and I have different order tactics in restaurants. We often have a discussion over that. It doesn't matter where he is, wich city, country or restaurant;...he orders a steak. I often ask him, jeezz, try something new. Where he says: "but i know i like steak, why take the risk i order something i dont like?". Well because now you will never know if you like other dishes more than steak. Perhaps you order something you dont like, but maybe something great.

In all my life this has been my philosophy. Sure i have my favorite meals, people, countries for holidays etc. But i am always willing to try something new. And sometimes it backfires (seriously, Afghan restaurant,....2 liter rose water with everything?),..but often i find a pearl.

Nowwwwww, my point is: why dont i have this with Anime??? 95% of what i watch is isekai, adventure, magic. If i read the words "slice of life",..i feel my food getting back up. Buttt i must admit to myself;..there is also a very specific nice i also like. The strong villainess meets the prince romcom. Haha i dont watch it much but when i do;..i like it. Why do i refuse to give other anime genres a chance?

What are your opinions on this? You like to take a chance on anime and dont mind wasting 2 hrs if it is not good?

Watching series that are too similar to each other especially during the same season makes it too easy to confuse which events took place in  which series. Besides I need some CGDCT & moe content to balance out my mood after sone of the darker, bleaker, more violent series. Increasingly though a series needs to make some sort of positive (not ambivalent) impression on me in the first couple eps or I set it aside for future consideration if I can’t find anything else to watch.
