Well, sure. And it's great to have at least a character or two like Homura because it makes a show a bit more intriguing.

And the "slowly pulls back the curtain" approach is fine, and probably even ideal, for side characters like the ones in Steins;Gate that you alluded to.

But I think that your main character is somebody that the audience should have a real feel for after even just the first episode.

And what do we know about K's main character?

That's not just a rhetorical question, by the way, as it would be interesting to see what the biggest fans of this show can say about him.
