Hi, I'm pretty new to the anime fandom. A lot of my friends have encouraged me to watch anime over the years, but it wasn't until my brother forcibly sat me down and played Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood that I finally understood what the hype was about. You can say I'm pretty late to the game, but better late than never, right?
Some reasons I enjoy watching anime:
-the creative license that is not usually portrayed in Western television and movies. I have found that I have a penchant for exaggerated moments and gestures.
-learning about the Japanese culture and society through their humor, artistry, character relationships, or political leanings
-they're short
I just realized that I made an MAL account waaaay back in 2010, but soon forgot about it. Anyway, I hope this is a place where I can converse freely with other anime lovers and gain insight into this medium. After all, what else am I going to do with my time?
Drop an anime recommendation in the comments below and I promise I'll watch it.

I forgot to mention that I liked your Hyouka review, and that that was how I came across your profile. I agree with a lot of the stuff you wrote (though that wasn't the reason why I liked it) regarding character interactions and its overall subtlety. Good stuff!
I don't know if you're planning to watch them but you should look into Kaiba, Mawaru Penguindrum and of course, Boku no Pico.
Anyway, see you around.
