It should be pretty easy to tell at a glance if an anime is going to be like that.
I don't know why anyone sits through an anime even a second past the moment they lose interest.
Let alone whole episodes.
Even the best anime are episodic.
The last episodes are rarely that much different than the first.
Except for super rare instances like Cop Craft, which went from dark and serious for the first few episodes, then out of nowhere turned into the funniest fucking anime I've ever seen.
Then there's 98 Trigun and Gurren Lagann's tonal shifts halfway through, but, I can't think of any other anime that change that drastically over a run, even between seasons.

You should check out how it doesn't actually repeat any of the scenes in the same way.
Otherwise i'd call it a mood, enter your own mind and feel the windless heat.
>>
>>284671280
>>284671358
They're all just slight permutations on the exact same thing - there's no actual advance in either the plot or the character's relationships at all. Compare that to Stein's Gate which excellently shows how to do this: despite the fact the Kurisu is meant to know nothing for much of the plot, we really see her and Okabe's relationship grow.

How is that replicated at all?

Open your eyes when watching anime, analyze the things that penetrate your eyeballs.
You're so blind you could see Mount Fuji and say "hmm is that Tokyo Tower?" it's a fucking mountain you squinting bastard. Stop pretending to be retarded, it makes your post nothing but retarded so you don't get to ignore the fact absolute 100% of the entire board is more intelligent than you right now. Faggot.
Everything your wrote in your post is dumb as shit.

Imagine ever doing this. I haven't watched the vast majority of mainstream anime because I just don't want to, yet I've still racked up several hundred anime over the years. Of MAL's top 50, I have only seen 6: FMA:B (on request), LOGH, Kusuriya no Hitorigoto, Ashita no Joe, Mob Psycho 100, and Bocchi the Rock, and I dropped BTR around episode 9 or 10 because I got bored with it. I've got a similar ratio with a lot of /a/'s classics. Frieren is on my backlog somewhere, probably. I'm doing just fine. Just watch what you like.
>>
>>284668437
Anime watching is a passive hobby. There is no skill to gain from it. Being an anime critic isn't a skill.
You shouldn't force yourself watching an anime when you don't like it.

1. Still a faggot u mad a little.
2. It's not about the plot, plotfag. They go to the pool, how could that be an interesting story?
- Because they go to the pool over and over again which is that summer existence, art is about life, endless eight is the summer you wish you had.
- If these episodes were a cheap scheme then they wouldn't have animated and voiced each scene differently each time.
- If these episodes were a troll then they wouldn't have played a triumphant musical theme at the end. This ride was engineered on purpose.
3. I've read the novels, not great, the animated form of this story is superior, kyoani added so much dimension to it.
4. Straighten your jim jams. It's going to be alright.

Someone said that every book he reads is a book about personal development and someone else said: who gives a fucking shit how long a scene is.

Haruhi and Code Geass are meme anime, you watch them for the shitposting and the irony, but if you want a good anime you are beyond fucked because they suck big balls.

>>284671417
Endless Eight was a what we call "a style exercice" in french.
It was KyotoAnimation trying to innovate the medium in way never done before by doing the exact same 20min story 8 times in a row with completely different visual presentation each time. There isn't a single reused shot in the entirety of E8, in fact every episode is different from its color key to its direction and compositing.
The thing is, such an avant-garde concept of representing concrete repetitive time loops would be something usually found in very obscure, even underground production, not in a broadly appealing otaku anime like Haruhi is.
Back in the 2000s, it was still relavitely common to see studios/director experimenting within the medium but nowadays it has become completely lost.

Indeed, I loved the early 00s, because of the full jump from cel to digital you had a lot of experimental anime going on, specially with CGI too, a lot of anime originals thanks to that, good times, now anime originals are very few each season.

>You say that as if that makes it automatically good. E8 is boring as shit.
I won't claim it's good but KyoAni undeniably executed their concept perfectly proven by the fact there is still seethe about it even 16 years later.
It's a proof of Haruhi's lasting relevance that people here or even in normalfag anime circles will still put Disappearance as one of the greatest anime movies ever even though you need to get through the massively shat on E8 to watch it.
The boredom you felt watching E8 was the point quite like the disgust you feel when watching snuff movies.
