Started watching a 90-episode anime this month and got burned out by episode 12

I thought I could binge that long running shonen series everyone raves about, but by episode 12 my brain just checked out. Same fight scenes, same power-ups, same yelling. Did I miss some hidden gem in the middle episodes or is it all just filler until the last arc? How do you guys actually finish these 200+ episode shows without losing your mind?

Burned out my buddy Matt so bad on episode 15 that he actually fell asleep during a main villain monologue.

Matt probably would've been more entertained watching paint dry, honestly. That just means the pacing was so slow that even a main villain couldn't keep someone awake.

Yeah I used to defend that episode but you just changed my mind honestly.
