| Its very slow paced. It is pretty good though I definitely see how a lot of people can be put off by it. |

| @AnimeDownUnder They're trying to do something different that's more unique and better suited to the themes of the show by building atmosphere and suspense. There's definitely more dialogue in later episodes but the series stays true to this approach and that's a big part of why it's loved by its fans. |

| I happen to have Tex downloaded so i extracted the subs files and counted the words... it has 21792 over 22 episodes, so about 1k words per episode. I hope you learned an important lesson that extrapolating from a single data point (=1 episode) is never a good idea. Also you could have literally skimmed through a random episode to answer this quicker >_>' Kids nowadays prefer reading a lot of words instead of cinematographic masterpieces that show dont tell :( |

| Yes, Tex is definitely one the more experimental anime and defnitely worth a watch, especially if u like a grim story that makes you think. It's the opposite of the spoon-feeding we so often see in axtion-shounen anime, you'll have to give it attention while watching else you'll miss out on a lot. Although as far as I am concerned, not talking isn't a bad thing, one of my fav manga Blame! has a lot of chapters where no one speaks a word and it still manages to get across more than some other manga where it's just constant dialogue. romagia said: I happen to have Tex downloaded so i extracted the subs files and counted the words... it has 21792 over 22 episodes, so about 1k words per episode.

| Can't comment specifically on this show as I've not seen it myself but I've seen enough examples in other works of fiction where there has been a covering up of terrible writing/direction by trying to claim that it was just too damn clever for your average Joe Soap to understand. EDIT:- Thanks, I will :) Mod Edit: Removed baiting. |

| I had a hard time getting into it, I think that you should try until ep 10. I got engaged around 6 or 7 if I remember correctly. After that it becomes amazing. Mod Edit: Removed baiting. |

| It's a show not tell kind of Anime. If you don't want to have to use your brain a bit to put the pieces together or think critically then you'll find it boring and confusing |

AnimeDownUnder said: There's a lot of short films which have no dialogue like the house of small cubes and rain town. You'd probably like angels egg and cat soup too though. I saw a few anime like this already and I can't get into them Saw both Angel's Egg and House of Small Cubes years ago, I consider the latter one of my favorite anime movies of all time, I'll see about the other 2, thanks. The first episode has some dialogue, did you miss it? I was somewhat disappointed lol |
| Top tier anime if you're a big brain |
AnimeDownUnder said: shign said: I think something like 70% of the anime is no talking Oh that's rough, thanks I might give this anime a pass and find a different series to watch talk about no attention span, key jingling anime mode activated |
