The change in heart experienced by many viewers is a transformative experience that opens up new perspectives. In that journey, the initial perceptions are often challenged and replaced by a deep appreciation for the unique qualities of each anime series. Fans have come to recognize the importance of maintaining an open mind and being ready to adjust their opinions, as this can lead to astonishing discoveries and a broader appreciation of the anime world.
Below are insights from anime fans that have led them to “change their minds”:
– Fairy Tail. I initially skipped this series due to the childish nature of the characters, but I have since rewatched it for the third time.
– The events in Attack on Titan have significantly impacted me; I was completely captivated by how it unfolded. In just four years, I lost the joy of watching anime weekly.
– I usually avoid shows deemed too cute, like K-ON, Lucky Star, Maid-Sama, or even those like Little Busters. However, I have since come to appreciate many of their elements.
– Re:Zero was quite enjoyable for me because it offered a unique perspective on the concept of second chances.
– Demon Slayer. Zenitsu often annoys me, but by the time I reached the Mugen Train arc, I lost interest.
– I used to dislike Sword Art Online, which affected my enjoyment for years. I’m glad to have revisited it and formed a new opinion.
– For me, Gintama is a series I’ve watched 5-7 times, and I often find myself returning to the last few episodes, as I initially found it boring. In the end, I grew to love it.
– I once didn’t like Don’t Toy with Me, Miss Nagatoro due to the first few episodes giving me a bad vibe. However, after watching more, I realized it’s quite a good series.
– JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure initially felt too outlandish for my taste, but over time, I came to really enjoy it.
– Sousou no Frieren, I initially thought was overrated, but now I consider it a masterpiece.
– The Monogatari Series, especially Bakemonogatari, didn’t resonate with me at first due to its pacing and style not aligning with my preferences.
– My Hero Academia… I used to dislike it because of its fandom and tropes, but after watching five seasons, I found myself hooked.
