Tried watching a 'slow burn' anime everyone raves about and almost fell asleep by episode 3

I gave Mushishi a shot because the forums won't stop talking about it. I got through episode 2 and nothing happened, no action, no plot, just a guy walking around forests. By episode 3 I was checking my phone every five minutes. Am I missing something or is this show really just 26 episodes of calm vibes? Has anyone else found it boring or do I need to stick with it longer?

Nah, isn't the whole point of "slow burn" just being an excuse for boring shows?

Slow burn just means a show actually respects your intelligence.
