Hello. I'm wondering what was the anime series had you guys hooked within the first 3-4 episodes.
Not just a good series, but one that made you very eager and excited to watch. You just could not stop watching/could not stand the wait for the next episode.

The most recent one that was like this for me was Parasyte. The last one before that was probably Attack on titan.

Any genre is fine, as long as you were hooked. I'm just trying to find something that can hook me too.

Lately I have been in a state of apathy when it comes to watching anime. I dropped some and I put some on-hold for more than 2 months.

But yesterday I decided to continue Nanatsu no Taizai. God, the second half of the anime is just way much better than the first half. It got me so hooked that I've watched one after another all the episodes from 13 to 24.

Hyouka was the first show in a while that I could watch more than an episode or two in one sitting. I also watched all of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure (2012) in a few days, it was really good.

Tokyo Fool and Akame ga Shit?! These predictable things of crap? Never.

Kaiji ultimate survivor was awesome, thrilling and a masterpiece. While Monster is really awesome itself it still has 74 eps, which can be quite long.

If you want to watch Death Parade go for Death Billards. It's the one-shot which DP was based on but is far, far better.

Claymore has a shitty, original ending, whilst the manga is very good.
worst year for anime: 2014 - Akame ga Shit, Tokyo Fool and many more
