What is it about anime that makes it easier to watch than live action?

I can't seem to enjoy movies or TV dramas as much as I enjoy anime. I've always been an anime watcher but lately I've been trying to get into other forms of media as well because I feel like I'm missing out on something. I've tried some shows and the only ones I could watch until the end were Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. Everything else I couldn't finish, and when I do finish a show I have to drag myself through it.<br><br>I also never really enjoy it either, whereas with anime I just have fun and enjoy the moment. When I try to watch a live action movie I tend to rewatch the same ones over and over but I can't seem to watch new ones.<br><br>So what exactly is it about anime that makes it more enjoyable to watch in general?<br><br>&#x200B;<br><br>Edit: Thanks for the replies! So it seems that the biggest reasons are that anime covers more genres, it's more stylized, and the storytelling is more focused on a story rather than realism. I'll definitely take these in mind when exploring other media from now on, and maybe I can get used to watching live action eventually.
