| For me: Ergo Proxy. I hated the first 10 episodes or so. But i stuck with it cause i paid a pretty penny for the dvd and by halfway it started to get better |
| My waifu is the most wonderful waifu. Mai Valentine. We're freaking out that we're running out of time, but to do what? Should i stop and think of that? Is there something i could do to slow it down? Live in a day for once, instead of watch it sprinting by |
| JoJo's Bizzare Adventure, it only gets better. |
| I think steins;gate gets boring literally after the first episode until Only then does it get interesting. |

Tsuna Reborn is my top pick. It starts out a comedy that is ok, but turns into a peak battle shounen with a big solid cast. |
 |
| If I say Clannad, then that'd require the asterisk that "It gets better... but After Story might ruin it all for you". Of course Urusei Yatsura, as I've mentioned a ton here, is honestly pretty bad for the first 6 episodes (With a rare good moment here or there).  It gets significantly better after that. Way, way way way better. The remake doesn't have this issue at all... though it does lose some of the romance. |
 |
| The Dangers in My Heart: First 3 episodes were rough, but it gets a lot better after that. This is another best romcom I've watched, besides Love is War. |
 |
| One piece for sure, it has its highs and lows. There are stretches where the story becomes absolutely amazing, but then there are other points where it dips in quality again and feels dragged out. Akatsuki no Yona season 1 of the anime was just okay, it set up the characters and the world well enough, but it didn’t leave a huge impact. However, when I continued with the manga, the later arcs completely won me over |
| Hell Girl. It starts very formulaic before it gets awesome. TheBlockernator said: Ergo Proxy. I hated the first 10 episodes or so. But i stuck with it cause i paid a pretty penny for the dvd and by halfway it started to get bette I have to strongly disagree, the beginning of that was good, and then it fell apart when they left the city, then it became really boring and quite weird. |

| Dangers in my heart, first episodes were not much comedy and not much romance but it got better. Also less people talk about it, 'Love flops', it fist looked like a harem show but after 6th ep it was dark, loved it there. Similarly TBHK, it looks all funny in first season but it gets dark and serious in next seasons. |
 |
| Date A Live, it was a typical harem at first with a slight twist, but it evolved into a much better story after season 2. |
 |
| SAO got much better in the 3rd season, it paid off. |

| Gintama. Around 10-15 eps that is really where I gained the interest of the comedy arcs, as I patiently watched for the famed "serious" arcs. At the end, it paid off beautifully. |

| Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS is extremely weird structurally, the first 3-4 episodes might cause you physical pain on how repetitive and "Nothing really happens" they are, and the show only starts getting good around episode 8 (And only REALLY good when the Numbers and Vivio appear). Then you start having episodes where EVERYTHING happens, we're introduced to a fuckton of characters and they're all so fucking cool. I wrote in my review that it feels like it wants to be "the last arc of a long-running shounen", but without having all the other ones, so the result is that you have around 8 episodes of training arcs and then amazing stuff starts to happen. |
| That's usually battle shounen for me. Reborn, YYH and Bleaching get substantially better once their first bigger arcs start. Unfortunately this takes more than just a few episodes/chapters. |
