hellooo!!
My name is Calandre, I really like shoujo anime/manga and cute things. I collect manga, I'm starting to collect anime DVDs, and hopefully soon I will be able to get some rare collectible anime items! Other than romance, I really like historical, drama, and comedy anime. Some of the anime I watch is just out of curiosity, so I don't only watch stuff I know I'll like. If you have any reccomendations please comment on my profile!!

Oh boy, it's okay, just keep practicing if you're still interested. I should probably do that myself too... ahh so long since I've drawn anything!! I think I'll try to practice some art nouveau and maybe art therapy techniques soon. How about you? And how's spring treatin' ya? ;)
thank you for accepting my friend request
~ nice to meet you ♡
🙏BLESS🙏
Do you ever participate in challenges like Inktober and whatnot? I really haven't, but... maybe you have?
I like finding niche stuff as an excuse to draw some new things if I like the series enough, so maybe you can try doing that as this new year approaches too! It does mean I get very little engagement if I post fan art of these niche series online, but eh, anything to make it a bit more popular I guess? Maybe? XD
Do you draw like I do? You might find it easier to do some visual doodling/note-taking, like maybe write down the kanji and draw the pictures of what it means next to it

And if you're alright with GL shoujo and josei:

https://myanimelist.net/manga/141215/Yume_no_Hashibashi?q=Yume%20no%20Hashibashi&cat=manga
I will mention that most of these stories are dark to a degree and feature themes like war and domestic abuse. Tendou-ke, Cocoon, and Firefly Wedding are probably the darkest out of what I mentioned.
Other historical manga that I like:

https://myanimelist.net/manga/21525/Akatsuki_no_Yona?q=Yona%20of%20the%20Dawn&cat=manga (Technically not real world history but it's definitely got a historical fantasy setting, and I'm obsessed with it so I have to recommend it).
