The first time I watched 2001: A Space Odyssey, I thought it was pretentious, boring and slow for the sake of being slow. I hated it and didn't even completely watch it. Years later I gave it another go, on a whim. And this time, it just clicked. I was with it this time and it had me by the grip. I had a completely different outlook on this piece of media and the messages it was trying to convey. If I didn't give it another chance, I would've really missed out.
Sometimes you need to read something twice to get it. You might need to watch a movie three times to understand it. You might have to have that album on repeat for a week until the lyrics make any sense. You're allowed to engage with it and can keep engaging with it until it means something to you. People will see a painting at a museum and laugh about not getting what the big deal is but like you can come back, you can see it at another time, and maybe that next time it'll be different for you. I'm of the belief the "media literacy crisis" would solve itself if more people just sat down and did it again. Watched, read, played, listened, etc like I don't think people are getting more ignorant necessarily I just think we're not glorifying personally replaying things nearly as much as we should be.

Artwork that appeared in the table of contents for either and early volume of Berserk or a magazine an early chapter was published in and nowhere else apparently. By Kentaro Miura, obviously.
