I've been trying to get into Re:Zero. Seems like something I'd like based on what I've read about it. I'm struggling to get interested because like you said it seems bland. I'll keep giving it a go at least through the first season maybe will grab me.
Oh ye I watched season 2 when it came out earlier this year. I might pick up the Light Novel - sounds like a lot of important details weren't included in the show, well I suppose that's true of most novel -> show adaptations. One of the things that draws me in the most to a series is the world and the details the author has placed within it.
What's funny is I rated season 2 higher than season 1 on MAL without even realizing it.
Theres some pretty great moments but i felt the same way about it tbh... I powered through the first season though and it gets better, theres some pretty fucking powerful scenes/moments but like... man. It does get better though but it feels like a whole lot of nothing happens for a while until it picks up.

I watched ReZero a few years ago, but your comment was so full of compassion that I'll have to go read and the source material now lol.
My current fix is the Mushoku Tensei web novels.
