I definitely would have been less overall annoyed if they had not made that journey one of a 9 year hiatus and only returning with another whatever short story compilation. At least when Twelve Kingdoms finally came back it was with a 4 book behemoth to close out a longrunning story.

tbf from what i can tell the hiatus was because he was incredibly depressed

Love having another arc that is like three books long and ends with nothing of consequence happening and just reverting back to the status quo because the author had absolutely no idea what to actually do with the story.

If you hated it...
FUCK U and never come back
endless eight is really funny from a "wow, they actually did that" perspective

but i don't have the patience to actually watch more than 2-3 episodes of it myself

The trick is to watch season 2 four times. You just switch up which two of the eight you watch each time.

That comic sent me into a mood dip for at least an hour.

It's well-made, and I'm not upset at anyone, but it does cut to the core.

I did not like Endless Eight. Felt it was a waste of my time after 3-4 episodes. However, it is 2022 and it would be wild if I still had the energy to get angry about something so minor. I'll admit I did not know each episode was directed by someone different. Who knows, if I cared to rewatch it that might paint the experience in a different light. Movie was good, though!

Endless 8 is good, and the fact that there's 8 episodes of it just means it's 8 times as good.

i dont think that gives you license to tell other people their experiences and the ways they deal with them are invalid! that's kinda a weird way of going about it when they're not forcing anything on you!

like poo poo man it's healthier to just not care in this case

In short,
Not everything in the world is created for your benefit. If you don't like a genre, you can avoid it and reduce its impact on your life to nearly nil. Any remaining harm it causes you is far outweighed by the enjoyment it brings other people.
