| Not too many shows leave me HAVING to watch the second episode. It's usually more that I'll like it, but can put off continuing it for a little while. But there are a few shows where the first episode was so amazing that I had to come back for #2: Code Geass Death Note Bleach |

 |
| Hmm, that's a pretty good question. There aren't many that have done that to me, but there are some. Most that I do get hooked on take until episode four or later. Umineko no Naku Koro ni Full Metal Panic Fumoffu Gantz Mnemosyne Trigun |

| 80% of my collection Sometimes the story takes a few shows though to make it hard to pause for the day. |
| While not technically anime, currently I am a big fan of Hatsune Miku. At least I can go see her in concert. |
| Basquash! Speed Grapher Robotech Baccano! Kaiba Mushi-shi (probably helped that every episode was similarly episodic and great, you can start anywhere in that series!) Sci-Fi Harry Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei They Were 11 (a movie, but worth nothing that it hooked me within 5 minutes) |
| Bleach Elemental Gelade K-ON! Kimi-kiss ~ pure rouge Special A Toradora! |
| Death Note and Higurashi. Ok, maybe Higurashi was from episode 2 or 3, but that's close enough, right? |
| Nodame Cantabile, I watched the first 16 episodes without stopping. note that generally, i dont have the patience to sit through one episode of anything. |
| Most of the anime on my list, but the most notable ones: The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya Paranoia Agent Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei Trigun Monster Welcome to the NHK Death Note (although I was REALLY drawn in by the second episode) |

| Gankutsuou |
I enjoy watching people's favorites. Recommend your favorite show to me, even if I have it dropped/on hold. |
| Clannad |
| death note, samurai champloo, and elfen lied done it for me! evangelion was a good first episode too. |
  |
| few that I love since episode 1 Seto no Hanayome Clannad (both series) Mahou shoujo Lyrical Nanoha A's (I don't think this one counts since it's season 2, took me a while to love season 1.) yup, that's it. |

| Toradora Detective Conan Cowboy Bebop Pokemon Inuyasha Naruto One Piece FLCL Black Cat Chrono Crusade Higurashi no Naku Koro ni And manyl more that I can't think of at the moment. |
        |
| None. Death Note at Episode 2 maybe.. |
| If it doesn't hook me from the first episode, then I won't watch it. |
 |
| Recently it was Skip Beat [I couldn't stop watching it o_o;; it's so good >////< ] and also Glass Mask[2005] <3 |
| Cardcaptor Sakura fo'sho. |
 |
| FMA, Higurashi Kai, and most recently, Shakugan no Shana. |
| NANA Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Ga-Rei -Zero- Mushishi D.Gray-man Junjo Romantica Lovely Complex Maria Holic |
 |
| So far there are Hayate no Gotoku, Lucky Star, School Rumble, Shakugan no Shana (especially II), Clannad, and Minami-Ke |
| Azumanga Daiou Card Captor Sakura CLANNAD Death Note Elfen Lied Hayate no Gotoku! K-ON! Kamen no Maid Guy Kodomo no Jikan Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha Moetan Needless Pani Poni Dash Rizelmine Shakugan no Shana Just to name a few. Note that subsequent seasons of a show count as well, unless I mentioned otherwise. |

| CANAAN. |
 |
| Spice and Wolf, Fell is love with it instantly and only wanted more after it ended. but then good thing season 2 is out now, it's just hard waiting a week between episodes. |
| It doesn't think, it doesn't feel, it doesn't laugh or cry..... All it does from dusk till dawn is make the soldiers die. |
| Fullmetal Alchemist, man that was good from the start. Other then that i suppose One piece and Bleach. |
 |
| Clannad, Kanon, Full Metal Panic! and Neon Genesis were probably the most successful at keeping me infront of the computer screen ready to click the next episode. Or the TV, but that was only FMP! because it is close to impossible to get any of the other three on DVD here in the UK. |
