To me, it's totally fine if you don't talk 24/7. After all, I am also re-watching the series (first time in english) :)
It's totally normal to not get alot at the beginning. Try sticking to it, at least up until episode 12. It's gonna be one hell of a ride. After all, this is my all time favourite :)
By the way, some episodes (not many) have IMPORTANT after credit scenes. So at least skip until after the ending every time :)
