I'm three episodes in and not really vibing with this show. I'm not huge on bombastic comedy or the dream of "going viral". I didn't really get Viral Hit or Jellyfish Can't Swim in the Night either (although the latter did pick up towards the end). And the humour I'm into is more the kind where you think about it for days afterwards, like Übel in episode 27 of Frieren.

I want to give it the benefit of the doubt since it's an anime original, but I also need to be more selective with what I watch. This show being kinda watchable without really being compelling or interesting to me in any way makes it a tough decision.

I guess I like that it's yuri, it's evocative that Masaki's gonna die to achieve virality, and I guess it was kinda funny how Masaki crashed the stream in episode 1.

EDIT: Having watched episode 4, on the advice here, it still didn't really vibe with me. And come to think of it by the time I made this post I had probably already made my decision. Starting the other few anime from Summer 2024 made it clear that I'd rather be watching something else.

Im surprised someone takes the time out of his life to write something about an anime you can just watch to a degree untill you think its enough instead of going on a platform to ask if it is worth it, people are gonna have different opinions.

Anime is anime, if your not enjoying it nobody is forcing you to watch it, watch it if you want to, don't watch it if it feels like a chore and is boring you watch it if it brings you comfort or enjoyment, not just to get it finished lol.

I'd say you at least should watch episode 4 to get a better idea of the variety in the show since that has a more serious tone to it unless that isn't your thing. It's not about any end goal so much as it's just about the characters relation with eachother.

I mean personally I never drop anime because I feel like even disliking a show I like finishing them just to get the film experience.

And in that sense some shows have turned around eventually making it worth sticking it out.

I mean in this case probably just drop it of your not vibing with the comedy since it’s a big part of the show.

Also idk where you got yuri from this show never had any yuri in it that I remember

I dropped Viral Hit twice. I gave it the benefit of the doubt and I should have stuck to my guns. It was not good.

Jellyfish was good but Girl's Band Cry which aired the same season was much much better.

As for this one... Personally, I loved it. Great songs, great characters. The plot might be somewhat simple but it's cute fun with adorable vampire girls. It did dip into some serious subject matter on occasion (episode 4 being one of those times if I remember correctly).

Anyway, I think it's worth continuing. It's a cute little series.

There is 1 episode in this show that is very sad but very good. Besides that, there isn't much more here.

As someone who's watched this entire series, if you don't like the first 3 episodes then I'd say drop it. the type of comedy is basically in the whole anime. It does get a little serious in the last 2 episodes, but it's only like, 10 minutes of seriousness combined.

if you don't like what it's doing by episode 3 you won't start liking it more. Don't believe in Time-Sunk Fallacy, drop shows if you aren't enjoying them it's not that deep.

I'd probably drop if you usually drop after 3 episodes of not liking it

The vibe doesn't really change, so if you're tired of it after 3 episodes, don't bother.
