| Personally I thought it was. I really struggled and had to force myself to finish it. However, if something is boring or not is a subjective result and you shouldn't decide if to watch/try something or not based just on other people's personal reactions. |
| No, it is not boring. Watch it. |
 |
| It all depends on you. Do you like slice of life shows? Do you like realistic character driven dramas? Do you sympathize with characters that have endured trauma? The show has some really good character writing, and the visual metaphors it uses for depression and anxiety are pretty breathtaking. But if you prefer something more akin to shonen anime then I suppose it’d be possible to find it boring. |
| If the Mc and themes of the show don't interest you then it would be boring |
 |
| Sometimes its boring especially when the focus is on shogi. But whenever the Kawamoto sisters are involved, the story suddenly comes alive. It's definitely worth sticking through the boring parts because season 2 is amazing. |
 |
| For me, it's boring. But for the second season? Nah. But only the first half. The Second Half... Meh. |
 |
| It depends on ur taste or genre preference. |
| It is boring and yet at the same time the best TV show ever created. KaiserHamuel said: How does it try to be "clever"?Yeah it was kind of boring. Tries to be clever and fails lol. Though I suppose it depends if this is your kind of show or not. |

KaiserHamuel said: It is the first time I have ever seen someone describing Sangatsu as clever tbh. The show has a similar formula throughout, so the first 8 episodes you have watched kinda represent how the whole show is. cchigu said: It is boring and yet at the same time the best TV show ever created. How does it try to be "clever"? I have no clue. That’s what everyone I’ve talked to seems to praise it for... I watched the first 8 episodes and didn’t get that at all. Was I mislead? |

| Its boring but a masterpiece. That aside it depends on what you consider "boring". Im gonna assume you'll find it boring since your list consist's of action anime, and the only SOL anime you really watched are tearjerkers or RomCom's. |
| I gave up on character of the week since it takes too much thinking. I'll just change my forum pfp to whoever I want every week lol. |

I enjoyed the chill first few minutes of ep 1 then characters started talking and it went downhill for me. I personally abhor melodrama. |

| I mean, it depends on what you classify as boring. it’s just really beautiful, and yeah it has a slow pace sometimes but it does a lot of things so well |
| I enjoy SoL a lot but barely managed to finish S1 of this anime. It’s like a depressing version of Chihayafuru where MCs go to training centre, play competition, lose, win, rinse and repeat. At least Chihayafuru has tense moment. This shogi game is pretty complicated and only involves thinking so the competition is dull. I believe the story moves on during S2 but I already gave up. |
| Truth is absolute but human perception of truth is always relative. |
| The idea of whether or not something is boring is entirely subjective since everyone can be entertained by different stuff. Personally speaking, I did sadly find it to be so but it's one of the most loved anime by the majority so hopefully that's enough to get you in |

Bhaskar_Singh said: The plot being "generic and predictable" is the strong part of the show. 3-gatsu no Lion is a show that thrives on the reliability of the characters. The more the plot resembles the mundane life the better the connectivity with the characters is. Yes. It over drags a lot of scenes by this silent moments in order to provide time for introspection possibly but it fails to create that wannabe deep atmosphere. The plot is too generic/predictable. It uses this abstract slow animation style to depict sadness but fails in that too. its to over dramatic which feels cringe.Music is good. Try it but if you feel you can't bother enough for what's happening, don't consider continuing. Avg show overall. |

| from day 1 ever since a certain moment early on it really hit me on a deep personal level so i can't speak for everyone but it's my favorite anime ever because it made me feel something no other anime has. whether you'll find it boring for a shonen type of guy maybe but it's up to you and your tastes. |
kyou_on said: It's literally character- focused. Shogi is nothing more than a window for the viewers to see the characters through. Sangatsu is about its characters and connection, and shogi is one such connection.I enjoy SoL a lot but barely managed to finish S1 of this anime. It’s like a depressing version of Chihayafuru where MCs go to training centre, play competition, lose, win, rinse and repeat. At least Chihayafuru has tense moment.

If you went into it expecting a game anime you were definitely expecting the wrong thing. |

| No it isn't boring. I found it relaxing and yet it still had a lot to say and the writing is very good. |
