>but they are impactful if well-done
They sure are, and I want to avoid that impact like the plague.
>I need to space out the ones I watch to fully appreciate and recover from each, but I can see the appeal.
Right. When I read Orion I promptly went to the volume 1 I had purchased back in the day and ripped it apart. As each day passes, my hate towards the series and the author only grows. Maybe my recovery time is just extensively long, like a century or so?
>Why would you ruin that for yourself at every opportunity?
Because one, I enjoy stories more that way and two, it's the best way to ensure that I don't accidentally stick my dick in wood chipper again. I don't need more things to hate. Why wouldn't I take extra 10 minutes to read up spoilers on a story when I have only benefits for doing so?

>Stories tend to build toward a possible sad ending before it happens (or doesn't), so you can experience hope, fear, tension, uncertainty, and cope along the way before it arrives at relief or grief.
I don't want to feel half of those things.
>That's entertainment. That's art.
It's not entertaining, it's enraging. If that's what your definition of art is, you can keep it.
