I'm sure a lot of three episode rule people won't keep this on their watch list thanks to the slow build up but once things get rolling it's worth it.
"What can ya do." Well, as the audience, nothing obvious. As the writer, a plethora of things. Like making it ten minutes. Or show him going from hiding spot to hiding spot to get moments of rest. Like, anything other than what the writer actually did.

And I think it's important for your show to meet the three episode rule. There is a reason Oshi no Ko went with a first episode that's 100 minutes long. Once again, there's a bunch of things not only the author, but the anime adapters could have done here.

...Such as compressing the first three episodes down to a single episode. You know, remove all the useless fluff?
