First and foremost:
- Enjoy anime and manga.

Besides this goal I'd probably say these regarding anime:
- Rewatch all of these (Gurren Lagann, Steins;gate, 3-gatsu, Lain, Texhnolyze, Haibane Renmei & Shinsekai Yori.)
- Clear out my PTW, I'm sick of seeing shows that's been there for years.

And these regarding manga:
- Collect all of the Hardcovers of Berserk, all of Vinland Saga and all of Slam Dunk. Read them all.
- Read the big three.
- Read Kingdom, GTO, Blame!.
- Re-read Goodnight Punpun, Monster and Vagabond.

I want to finish all anime on my on-hold list, and catching up to all the ongoing ones on it. The same with manga.
I take my time ofc, it is not a goal that I plan to reach in the next few years (as these lists are very long), so I watch and read everything I want in the meantime.

Well one of my goals when it came to anime was to go back to the medium itself as a whole which I've already done. So what are the other goals for it you may ask? Well they are as follows:

Complete Death Note (Which I'm almost about to complete by the way)
Complete Yu Yu Hakusho
Go back to Bleach at some point
Maybe try out One Piece
Try out some more classic anime

As for Manga?:
Well the only goal I have at the moment is just basically read more of it. I've got the first volume of Bleach so probably start. Oh yeah and basically read that manga volume that somehow I've had for several years and yet I've haven't read at all for some reason.

Otherwise that's about it for me.

Other than lowering the number of watching and on-hold, I have achieved all I wanted to achieve.

Got the 1000 TV/1000 Movie/1000 OVA/1000 ONA/1000 Special recently. Don't care about music all that much, but I could technically do that since I'm within striking distance

The cool thing I suppose is to get to 40k episodes, but that should be easily doable by end of the year at the absolute latest

Essentially I'll probably start doing a slow rewatch on some certain shows. My interest in watching has been pretty much exhausted.

Still will keep up with at least 5 new seasonal shows (10+ each season including sequels) and add maybe a few more completed shows

As a manga reader: I’ve only recently started to get into to manga so ig just keep going🤷‍♀️

No real set goals, but I would like to watch more from Kyoto Animation and CloverWorks, just because I've noticed I always really like their animation style a lot! Maybe also watch more shows specifically that my fave seiyuu have been involved in!

Other than that, the usual things I guess? get my PTW down to a reasonable size, watch more anime outside of my comfort zone, etc.




We can always go somewhere again.

First season of Re: Zero actually turns out to be a prologue of some sort, the beauty of the series comes out during the second part of the second season. It's just art and really beautiful character writing for Subaru's and Emilia's characters.
It's just something I'd recommend if you enjoyed San-Gatsu, or not x) do whatever you want mate

I've gotten into reading a lot of novels and manga lately, so it sure would be awesome if i could reach 1000 completed entries someday... I still haven't even reached 100 though, so i still have quite a long way to go.

The characters from the first season are not promising at all: a goody-two-shoes simp and his harem, with the main damsel in distress barely having any personality.
But ok, I think I'll give it a try later. You are not the first who insists that I should try to continue watching it.
I recall dropping AOT at some point and someone insisted that I gave it a second chance. And it actually worked.

Oh really? Did you enjoy aot or nah?

It's a hobby, not an obligation, so the only goal I set for myself is to enjoy what I watch and drop something if I don't. A passive goal which I'll reach eventually is 10,000 hours (416.7 days)

Short-term goal: Reach level 26 on MAL Badges.

Mid-term goal: Complete 2999 anime.

Long-term goal: Dunno...get/complete as many badges/achievement/challenges on MALGraph, MAL-Badges and AWCC as reasonably possible, I guess.

PS: For the fun of it, not (just) for bragging rights.

Now I'm trying to remember who that person was. Probably you?
I surely did enjoy it, although I felt kinda shy to admit it at first. I eventually raised scores from 4-5 to solid 6, which in my scoring system means nice show I enjoyed plenty.
My 4/10 to Re Zero is actually a neutral score, too, not bad.

Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if it was me ngl xD
But even if you didn't watch it or enjoy it, it's totally fine, watch whatchu want. I'm glad you enjoyed aot, no need to admit you like a piece of entertainment (whether it's good or bad, popular or not, that's the whole fun of taste)
Well I hope the second season of Re: Zero will get a higher score ^~^

Be able to write really good (objective) reviews that are less biased (Since we can't completely avoid bias).

Also, never tire of watching anime.

And, since I still don't read manga, I think I would like to invest my time reading them in the future.
