After falling in love with 100 Girlfriends, I watched the first season of KonoSuba on a recommendation and didn't like it much. I didn't hate it but if it wasn't only 10 eps I probably would have dropped it. For whatever reason most of the comedy in KonoSuba doesn't land for me like 100 Girlfriends does. Kazuma isn't very likable, he just seems selfish and gross. The girls are fun, if mostly a little one note. I get the Megumin thing though, she's great and I see why she's so loved.

I dunno, maybe I'll get back to it at some point.

That do be like that sometimes. Entertainment is subjective; humour even more so.

He is. IMO he follows the trend of anti-hero protagonist who behaves like a dick (e.g. Deadpool). I can see why people dislike him.

Personally, I hardly give dropped anime second chances. I don't have a lot of time, but there are so many anime out there. Every minute I spent trying to make it work is time I could have spent watching another show, anime or not. Or reading another book or manga, or doing something else in my life.

I'd imagine it'll be the same for most people. Of course, if we have all the time in the world, it will be a different story.
