You know, it’s the Dan Quayle effect. You know, he won the second time — I mean, lost the second time, he got to run.

When you watch anime for the first time or are watching a new series jojo's bizarre adventure you may experience an effect which I coined as the 'The anime effect'
Symptoms include:
Can't stop thinking about anime
Your imagination is plagued by anime, for example you may be thinking about killing your annoying teacher. However now you think about it in anime
Everything you do will be experienced as an anime training montage
All thinks you experience will be unconsciously narrated in your head
When you imagine talking to somebody, you may talk in something that resembles Japanese in your head with subtitles

An effect often seen in books of the dystopian genre where the author inserts a slew of unfortunate, jarring events that leave the reader astonished and speechless, especially if a beloved character dies suddenly with little time to grieve.
In the book Mockingjay, from The Hunger Games Trilogy, the death of the character Finnick Odair shows A Hunger Games Effect in full force, where he dies so suddenly, it’s almost comical.

questioning the feeling of being in the wrong place when in a group or social get together, while inadvertently not having a point of reference while the parties chat away like old times, while you sip on your pint and think after 10minutes, this is a bit weird
going out with your boy/girl friend who still sees / communicates with the ex-partner on a regular basis, whilst inadvertently receiving the 3rd party effect when in social outings or arrangements that make you feel like you need not be there
