Vent: Why does everyone ignore the bad pacing in that new anime?
I get that fans are into the characters, but the plot moves way too slow. I binged it last weekend and kept checking my phone during the filler episodes.

Look at the production schedule forcing those slow episodes. They rush animation and stretch scenes to meet deadlines. The bad pacing comes from behind the scenes chaos, not artistic choice.

Oh come on! The pacing is just fine if you actually pay attention to the mood it's setting. Those so-called "filler" episodes, like the quiet one at the beach or the whole festival arc, are gorgeous. They build the world and let the characters just exist together, which is the whole point. rileymartinez might have a point about how we watch now, but that's our problem, not the show's. This anime is about letting things breathe, not rushing to the next plot point.

Maybe everyone's used to week to week releases where slow parts give you time to talk with friends. Binging the whole thing at once makes those filler bits way more obvious and boring. The show was built for the old schedule but we watch it in the new way. It's like the pace is broken because how we watch changed.

Riley's point hits home. I tried binging that camping anime and the quiet scenes just blurred together into a snooze fest. But watching it weekly, those same slow episodes gave me something to look forward to and chat about online. The waiting built up the vibe. Maybe some shows just aren't built for our instant watch culture, you know?
