3 Episode Rule – Komi can’t Communicate

3 Episode Rule is a series in which I watch the first three episodes of a new anime and decide whether to stick with it or drop it based on those three episodes alone.

This is my final entry into the Autumn season’s 3 Episode Rule series. In general, I have a habit of overcommitting myself to assigning myself shows and only actually watching half of them.

The previous two anime seasons fell kind of flat for me. I know that COVID crippled production within a lot of studios, affecting both the quantity and quality of the shows we got.
