Hey so I love over-sharing and talking about anime stuff so I thought this would be a really fun thing to do! (I like anime and character specific questions the most!!) |

Hello fizzy! (can I call you fizzy?) Why did you give Shinsekai Yori 1/10? |

Hey! ^^ How are you today? What do you think about recent seasons and is anime still on the right path (whatever that means)? |

Hiya miossi ovo (yeah, please do!) Uuhhh well I'll put that in a spoiler because it'll be long and, y'know, spoilers. And with that said if you like Shinsekai Yori don't read this because I'm a negative nancy. I think one of the biggest problems I had with it was not only did it not follow the "show don't tell" rule. There are multiple scenes where the characters say something, then directly contradict what they had just. Like, in episode 8 (I think? It was the Gay episode) the others approach Shun and Satorou holding hands in the hallway and say something among the lines of "oh looks like they're as happy as ever," clearly implying they are in a stable relationship. Later Shun straight up ignores Saki, walks past her, to see what Satorou is doing insteand. Of course there's also the field scene. And when Shun dies he tells Saki he always loved her. But he had never given any kind of hint that he was even remotely attracted to her? Except for maybe when they were small children but this is /years/ later. Not only that, despite the fact that Shun or Satorou (I forgot which) says that Satorou was too clingy/needy in their relationship, there was never any implication that either of them were unhappy while they were actually in a relationship. Like, at all. For another example, Maria and Murmuro's kid was completely uncalled for. Like it's not like Maria stayed platonic with Muromuro because she was in a relationship (of sorts?) with Saki, because like she kissed Saki and then encouraged her to ask this other dude out. So it's not like she was strictly unavailable. She just wasn't interested in Murmuro. She rejected him at the valentines thing. She went from "let's stay friends" to "I'm pregnant with your child" and absolutely none of it is shown on screen. I can understand Saki and Satorou being togther at the end of the series. They had actual development. When the series first started and they were stranded together I thought "okay, I can see this eventualy leading up to a relationship when they're older." But when a child appears and the mother is a girl I had previously thought to be lesbian and the father is someone the mother previously had no romantic interest in, I become confused and frustrated. Even the main antagonist is super wish washy. Like, Squealer has always been a sneaky and manipulative jerk. He is /so/ underhanded. And the series tries to play him off as a martyr but it just doesn't work with his characterization. He says at one point, near the end, that the powers these people have are satanic. But how many times has he begged for help from these people? How many times have these satanic powers saved his life? Like, all this hatred towards the humans and what they've done coming from the character that would easily sacrafice the life of another for his own (which is kind of what the humans are doing in a way?) just seems really hypocritical and dumb. I don't remember much of the actual plot because I found it painfully boring. And even then that wouldn't be so bad in itself because I focus a lot more on characters (like I can still enjoy a thing with a bad plot if I like the characters and I can dislike an anime with a good plot but has boring characters). But I found both the plot and the characters to be bland and I had a bad time. :') Literally the only thing I thought was well done in this anime was the animation. It was unique and nice to look at. Memor said: Hey! ^^ How are you today? What do you think about recent seasons and is anime still on the right path (whatever that means)? I'm fine, thanks for asking. ;v; I've liked the past seasons pretty well! Anime has been getting more mainstream so yeah I think so. As long as each season has variety so everybody has a little something to watch I think it's fine. I kinda wish there were more sequels and reboots though.. >>' Zaheezy said: What do you love about yourself? My ability to keep an open mind, I guess? I try hard to see where another person is coming from and stay amiable even if we disagree on something. Tarotist said: Do you like the Ecchi? It's not my favorite genre :') |

The only other game I'm playing right now is Touken Ranbu but I'm not sure that counts ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ I'm playing Hatoful Boyfriend because I started it as a joke but then it got absurdly dark and I am very intrigued, DeSu2 because I love Saiduq very dearly, and Touken Ranbu because I love to complain lol Zaheezy said: What do you hate about yourself?

PhKay said: How did you get into anime?

Like when I woke up at 4 am when I was 9 maybe 10 I'd watch whatever episode of Naruto or Bleach was airing even though I knew I wasn't allowed to be watching stuff with that much cursing. And I grew up watching Pucca, Deltora Quest, Kimba the White Lion, and of course Pokemon (+a bunch of other anime influenced cartoons like Avatar and Teen Titans). What made me watch what I consider my first anime, Tsuritama, was this one artist I liked that liked other cartoons I like and also drew a webcomic I liked. And since she liked Tsuritama I thought I'd give it a shot. I didn't really consider myself a fan until maybe a year or two ago though, because although I enjoyed Tsuritama, I tried a few others and couldn't get past the first episodes (I think my 13 year old brain just couldn't handle it to be honest). I was still kinda iffy about anime but curious and I'd been really interested in watching Attack on Titan so when my best friend said she'd watched it and told me I should too I did, loved it, and binged watched a lot of other series like Death Note and Black Butler and now I love anime. ;v; Haaaa sorry. :'D Glad I wasn't too obnoxious then??

hehe no it was alright. You expressed your dislikes well and everybody has the right to have his own opinion. It would be boring if we would agree on everything. This place is not the open forums where a bunch of idiots would´ve called you names by now ^^ Wanna give surveys a try? ;) Here´s the current one: (no need to read the rules before surveying...) Welcome to HST Survey Number 55! As always, if you feel like participating please answer this question game until Sunday, 7pm CET. Please check for your local time zone if you can´t do this survey before Sunday! If you aren´t familiar with surveying yet, here are the Overview for Newcomers: HST Surveys (named after the Monia Cafe Hot Seat Threads since this is where it all started) are fun surveys held once a week. There will be a new topic for each survey each week and we will crown a winner for each survey every Sunday. However, these surveys are not just asking for your opinions, but rather consist of a "question game" with sometimes very random questions, so you might end up with a result that will surprise you ;) Our first season which ran for 42 weeks (= 42 surveys) is over, and what you will be reading here are the rules for our 2nd season which will start on July 25th :) Participating: There are two ways to take part in the Surveys here in Monia Café! 1. If you have a Hot Seat Thread, i will be posting the new survey there every week and you can answer it there too of course. 2. If you do not have an active HST, you can take part by posting your answer right here in this thread as i will be posting the surveys here as well and change the title of the thread each week so that it fits ^^ You do not have to participate in every single survey! You can do as many or as few as you like ^^ Procedure: I will be posting a new survey each Monday. If you want to participate, please answer the survey until Sunday, 7pm CET. I will collect all results and then present the final standings on Sunday. Each Survey will consist of a "Full Version" and a Short Version. You can do only one of those two or both if you feel like it. The Full Version will always consist of 4 Steps, with Step 1 making you nominate your Anime Characters or Anime and Steps 2-4 making you eliminate them from the survey until only one nominee is left. The one left standing is your winner of course! Full Versions are designed to take you between 10-20 minutes on average, though how long you take depends on how detailed you feel like answering. Short Versions consist of 2 Steps. Step 1 is a nomination step and Step 2, called "Eliminator", will quickly bring you down to your winner by answering a few short questions. Short Versions take less than 5 minutes to complete. Each survey will be ranked like this: 1. Most Total Wins 2. More Wins from different Participants 3. More Full Version Wins 4. More Finals 5. More Total Nominations 6. If still tied, Voting Poll KEEP IN MIND THAT HST SURVEYS WILL ALWAYS HAVE ANIME CHARACTERS OR ANIME AS WINNERS! THIS IS NOT A COMPETITION BETWEEN THE PARTICIPANTS!!! How the Season works: The Season will run until the end of May 2017. Everybody who has won a Survey until then will qualify for the Finals where we will crown the Overall Champions of the Season! I archive all results! If you want to look at the 1st season, you can look up the victory presentations of all surveys in my blog section here:http://myanimelist.net/blog/PhKay Don´t spoil yourself! Don´t click the next spoiler button until you have answered the question/step you are currently at. Also don´t take this survey too seriously and have fun! ^^ You can do the Full Version, the Quick Version or both if you feel like it! THE MOST ECCENTRIC ANIME! (created by sytemet) Step 1: Nominate four anime that dazzled you by being completely out there. Anything goes as long as you thought it was crazy! Step 2: Competition time! Every competition awards points and may sentence penalties. After all competitions, send the anime with the most points straight to the final (Step 4)! Eliminate the anime in last place! The other two anime are moving on to Step 3. TIEBREAKER: If two or more shows are tied for 1st or 3rd place, break the tie by redoing C1 with the tied shows only. C1: Rank the competitors according to the craziness of their premise. Give them +2, +1, 0, -1 points with the craziest gaining 2 points and the most normal losing one. C2: Give the anime with the most creative visual effects and art direction +2 points. The anime with the most uninspired visuals is given a *BLANK CANVAS*, which will stick with it for the rest of the survey. The anime with a *BLANK CANVAS* cannot get more than 1 point from a single competition hereafter! C3: Which anime is the best at hiding themes/social commentary/thought-provoking subtexts behind its insane façade? Give it +1 point and a *MONOCLE OF VIRTUE*. The anime with a *MONOCLE OF VIRTUE* will always win in the tiebreakers. The anime with the least substance cannot gain any points in C5. C4: Which anime is the least predictable? It steals away a point from the anime that has the most points and is not this anime! If there is a tie, the point gets snatched from the more predictable one unless it has *MONOCLE OF VIRTUE*. The least predictable anime gets -1 point. C5: Time to give out bonus points. Give +1 points for each anime that: Has a staff member in your favourites Has under 100k registered users You have watched more than once Greatly exceeded your expectations Step 3: Think of the most ridiculous scene in each of the competitors in this step. The Anime with the most ridiculous scene is sent to the finals. Eliminate the other. Step 4: Welcome to the Final! Choose one: Anime is… If one of the anime has *MONOCLE OF VIRTUE* it wins. Otherwise the anime with the higher mean score on MAL wins! If one of the anime has *BLANK CANVAS* it loses. Otherwise the anime which is favorited by more MAL users wins! Crown the Winner “The Most Eccentric Anime!” Step 1: Nominate four anime that dazzled you by being completely out there. Anything goes as long as you thought it was crazy! Remember that if you also did the Full Version, you can´t nominate your Full Version winner here again! The Eliminator! E1: Eliminate the Anime with the least crazy characters! E2: Eliminate the Anime with the least crazy story! E3: The Anime that makes less sense or doesn´t take itself serious wins! Thank you very much for participating in this survey! ^^ |

This place is not the open forums where a bunch of idiots would´ve called you names by now ^^ I really appreciate that... 8U Honestly the reason my post count is so low despite being on mal for a while now is because I seem to have a knack for ticking people off in forums. Yeah I like this place a lot so far. And yeah I was kinda hoping you'd get around to giving me a survey lol, they look like a lot of fun. Step 1: • Concrete Revolutio (????????????) • The Devil is a Part-Timer (pretty self explanatory) • Cute High Earth Defense Club (it's not even the magical boy part that's that weird it's just literally everything) • Assassination Classroom (kids with bad grades have to try to murder their octopus teacher) C1: • The Devil is a Part-Timer +2 • Assassination Classroom +1 • Cute High 0 • Concrete Revolution -1 (the concept itself isn't that weird. it actually could have been pretty normal if it was made differently) C2: • Concrete Revolutio +2 • The Devil is a Part-Timer is given the Blank Canvas C3: • Assassination Classroom is given the Monocle of Virtue C4: • Concrete Revolutio is least predictable and snatches a point from The Devil is a Part-Timer C5: • Concrete Revolutio +1 (under 100k members) • The Devil is a Part-Timer +1 (exceeded expectations) • Assassination Classroom +2 (watched more than once, exceeded expectations) Step 3: • Assassination Classroom Moves onto Step 4 with the most points • Concrete Revolution moves onto Step 4 with the most absurd scene(s) • Cute High is eliminated due to lack of points • The Devil is a Part-Timer is eliminated due to lack of absurdity Step 4: • Assassination Classroom is crowned The Most Eccentric Anime I kinda have a headache now bUT THIS WAS FUN!

I've still only actually seen a few though so I plan on watching a few more to broaden my view on it. I'm not too big a fan of harems because while I like romance, I'd prefer it take a back seat to the plot. But if the plot is romance/finding best girl/best boy, then?? There are a few harems I like though so if the plot interests I'm willing to give it a shot. I don't like mecha because it feels a bit impersonal. I like cool action scenes and I'd rather see my favs fighting themselves than in a giant robot, y'know? Also most of the time mechas are cgi and for me, cgi is very unpleasant to look at. I don't think I like dementia either because it's a bit too all over the place for me. It's a little Too Weird for me. Sorry I don't think you were asking for an essay but!! I like talking!!

Memor said: What do you think about curiosity and can someone be too curious? I think it's good to have a healthy curiosity. It's definitely not a bad thing to want to know more about or understand something. I think that people can be curious to the point of being nosy though. Like even if you're curious ya gotta respect people's boundaries, y'know?? If they don't wanna answer something then it's none of your business. moissi said: fizzytastic said: moissi said: Which anime genres do you dislike and why?

I like cool action scenes and I'd rather see my favs fighting themselves than in a giant robot, y'know? Also most of the time mechas are cgi and for me, cgi is very unpleasant to look at. I don't think I like dementia either because it's a bit too all over the place for me. It's a little Too Weird for me. Sorry I don't think you were asking for an essay but!! I like talking!! (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧ You can write all you want, I like reading essay answers :D Which genres do you like the most and why? Thanks for paying attention to me lol, I'm glad ;v; Well I've watched comedies the most out of every genre, so I'd have to say that's my #1 fav. I think it's pretty safe to say that's because I love to laugh. Not every anime manages to make me giggle but even then I just think it's nice to see the characters you like be happy and goofy (or comically frustrated). And on the flip side I like action a lot because I love anime violence. ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ I can't tell you how many things I've watched just because they look bloody. I don't know, I think it also has something to do with the fact that I like overpowered characters. I like seeing my favs beat up other characters. :3c I also like shounen and adventure for pretty much the same reasons, they're just super fun to watch? Like even if they're not High Quality anime I just (usually) have a really good time watching them. A lot of my fav anime are shounen actually. Fantasy and supernatural are also cool things to watch. (・∀・ ) Puchkov said: What do you think of Elfen Lied? I liked it. I don't think about it too much so it's not one of my favorites, but Lucy and Nana were cool characters and I liked the violence so I had a good time watching it. The incest made me uncomfortable though. :'D |

Erza is such a smart cookie, I love her✨ and Natsu is dumb but he makes dumb look cute lol. Naahh not really. I mean it's definitely not creative but it doesn't particularly bother me. Edit: Honestly though, who wouldn't love this majestic creature? |

This place is not the open forums where a bunch of idiots would´ve called you names by now ^^ I really appreciate that... 8U Honestly the reason my post count is so low despite being on mal for a while now is because I seem to have a knack for ticking people off in forums. Yeah I like this place a lot so far. And yeah I was kinda hoping you'd get around to giving me a survey lol, they look like a lot of fun. Step 1: • Concrete Revolutio (????????????) • The Devil is a Part-Timer (pretty self explanatory) • Cute High Earth Defense Club (it's not even the magical boy part that's that weird it's just literally everything) • Assassination Classroom (kids with bad grades have to try to murder their octopus teacher) C1: • The Devil is a Part-Timer +2 • Assassination Classroom +1 • Cute High 0 • Concrete Revolution -1 (the concept itself isn't that weird. it actually could have been pretty normal if it was made differently) C2: • Concrete Revolutio +2 • The Devil is a Part-Timer is given the Blank Canvas C3: • Assassination Classroom is given the Monocle of Virtue C4: • Concrete Revolutio is least predictable and snatches a point from The Devil is a Part-Timer C5: • Concrete Revolutio +1 (under 100k members) • The Devil is a Part-Timer +1 (exceeded expectations) • Assassination Classroom +2 (watched more than once, exceeded expectations) Step 3: • Assassination Classroom Moves onto Step 4 with the most points • Concrete Revolution moves onto Step 4 with the most absurd scene(s) • Cute High is eliminated due to lack of points • The Devil is a Part-Timer is eliminated due to lack of absurdity Step 4: • Assassination Classroom is crowned The Most Eccentric Anime I kinda have a headache now bUT THIS WAS FUN! (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧ ah i see it seems you were already aware i do those surveys haha glad you liked it ^^ Do you like Sports? Are you supporting any teams? |

I'm not gonna get too into it because it's a bit too gruesome but basically spiders and other bugs take over the world. ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ PhKay said: ah i see it seems you were already aware i do those surveys haha glad you liked it ^^ Do you like Sports? Are you supporting any teams? Yeah I stalked other hot seat threads for a bit before making one so I could see what it was like so I saw you around ovob Pffffftt nah. I find matches pretty boring. Honestly I don't even like sports anime so much because of that. o3o I mean, I still do like them, Haikyuu!! is one of my favorites ever, but matches are still kinda boring. I guess I support the football team, Steelers though? My aunt really likes them so I buy merch for her sometimes. |

Yeah, the mangaka drew the other characters like this too but this one is my favorite lol. Sometimes I feel a little bad for Jellal. It's k. :] I'm more interested in the characters than the plot so far. Plot is nothing new but it's not terrible either so I'm down. But I'm really curious how the thing w/ Kobayashi is gonna go? I'm assuming he will not die at the end but depending on how they go about having that orange dude convincing him to stop trying to kill himself has potential to be really intense. So I'm willing to stick around for that. ovob I'm gonna be so disappointed if they just brush it off though. |

Let us assume that watching movies includes anime. Eating satiates hunger, Sleeping replenishes energy, and Anime maintains your sanity. Of the three activities that the true man cannot live without, which among them do you think is the most essential? |

Melody_Tsukiyomi said: If you could enter any fictional world (anime, movies, games, etc.) for one day, which world would you choose and why? Probably a basic answer but I'd wanna live in Pokemon universe the most. I would love the have my favorites in real life. ;3; Though I'd have to keep a fire type on hand to get rid of all the big creepy bug pokemon. Memor said: What sound do you love the most? My all time favorite noises are soft little cat sounds. 8l like y'know, the mrrrps and the trill-y sounding ones. My cat does that a lot and each time I love her like %5 more. I also really like water noises like rain and crashing waves too though. kacaj said: I´ve seen that you gave Game of Laplace 10/10 . So do you know the "law" of determinism on which the anime is based, if yes what are your thoughts about it? Ranpo Kitan is bad. Like, it's mostly episodic and it has an over arching plot. But it explains that plot /so poorly/ that is basically doesn't have one at all. I've watched it twice now and I get what they're trying to get at, but it's incredibly confusing and doesn't make a lot of sense. And not to mention it's like, extremely fetishy. And that's pretty gross. But it makes me smile? I like the characters? The jokes make me laugh? It's so over dramatic and edgy but I love it? So like, I know it's not good, and I understand why it has such a low score. But I rate anime on how much I enjoyed them and I had a really good time watching it so I gave it a 10. I hope that answers your question about determinism?? 8l I don't really understand what you're trying to ask (sorry) but I tried. Feel free to ask again if this answer wasn't satisfactory though.

Also I really relate to my zodiac sign, Aquarius, so I like my birth date. ovob |

The anime itself is kinda crappy from my opinion, but it tries to build on a philosophical theory called determinism, it is an interesting theory for me so I was amused by the few references in the anime about it. There aren´t many people who know much about this topic, so I was just wondering if you knew about it. ( Because I couldn´t imagine another reason for rating that anime 10/10 ) |

Hey Hey what do you say! It´s survey time again!! Happy Monday and Welcome to HST Survey Number 56! As always, if you feel like participating please answer this question game until Sunday, 7pm CET. Please check for your local time zone if you can´t do this survey before Sunday! If you aren´t familiar with surveying yet, here are the Overview for Newcomers: HST Surveys (named after the Monia Cafe Hot Seat Threads since this is where it all started) are fun surveys held once a week. There will be a new topic for each survey each week and we will crown a winner for each survey every Sunday. However, these surveys are not just asking for your opinions, but rather consist of a "question game" with sometimes very random questions, so you might end up with a result that will surprise you ;) Our first season which ran for 42 weeks (= 42 surveys) is over, and what you will be reading here are the rules for our 2nd season which will start on July 25th :) Participating: There are two ways to take part in the Surveys here in Monia Café! 1. If you have a Hot Seat Thread, i will be posting the new survey there every week and you can answer it there too of course. 2. If you do not have an active HST, you can take part by posting your answer right here in this thread as i will be posting the surveys here as well and change the title of the thread each week so that it fits ^^ You do not have to participate in every single survey! You can do as many or as few as you like ^^ Procedure: I will be posting a new survey each Monday. If you want to participate, please answer the survey until Sunday, 7pm CET. I will collect all results and then present the final standings on Sunday. Each Survey will consist of a "Full Version" and a Short Version. You can do only one of those two or both if you feel like it. The Full Version will always consist of 4 Steps, with Step 1 making you nominate your Anime Characters or Anime and Steps 2-4 making you eliminate them from the survey until only one nominee is left. The one left standing is your winner of course! Full Versions are designed to take you between 10-20 minutes on average, though how long you take depends on how detailed you feel like answering. Short Versions consist of 2 Steps. Step 1 is a nomination step and Step 2, called "Eliminator", will quickly bring you down to your winner by answering a few short questions. Short Versions take less than 5 minutes to complete. Each survey will be ranked like this: 1. Most Total Wins 2. More Wins from different Participants 3. More Full Version Wins 4. More Finals 5. More Total Nominations 6. If still tied, Voting Poll KEEP IN MIND THAT HST SURVEYS WILL ALWAYS HAVE ANIME CHARACTERS OR ANIME AS WINNERS! THIS IS NOT A COMPETITION BETWEEN THE PARTICIPANTS!!! How the Season works: The Season will run until the end of May 2017. Everybody who has won a Survey until then will qualify for the Finals where we will crown the Overall Champions of the Season! I archive all results! If you want to look at the 1st season, you can look up the victory presentations of all surveys in my blog section here:http://myanimelist.net/blog/PhKay Don´t spoil yourself! Don´t click the next spoiler button until you have answered the question/step you are currently at. Also don´t take this survey too seriously and have fun! ^^ You can do the Full Version, the Quick Version or both if you feel like it! BEST LOLI/SHOTA CHARACTER! (sponsored by Zaheezy) Step 1: Nominate your four favorite Loli/Shota characters! Since the definition of these terms vary, we will stick with this view from MALs Loli Toplist: “Loli (girls) and Shota (boys) are young looking characters. The general idea is that these characters come off as really innocent, mainly because of their youthful appearance. Whether actually young or not, loli characters have always been there to add a more cute and vibrant atmosphere to their shows. ” Step 2: Pick SERIOUS OR RANDOM! Eliminate the Loli/Shota from the Anime you enjoyed the least as a whole! If your birthday is during Anime Winter Season, eliminate the Character you nominated first. If it is during Spring Season, eliminate the character you nominated Second. Summer=Third. Fall=Fourth Step 3: Competition time! For each competition, the winner gets a chocolate bar and the Loli/Shota in last place gets a grapefruit. After all competitions, send the two characters with the most chocolate bars to the final! Eliminate the Loli in last place! Tiebreaker: If there is a tie, the character with more grapefruits is eliminated. If it´s still a tie, redo C4 with the tied characters only! C1: Which character deals with perverted lolicons in her anime the best/worst? C2: Which character is the cutest/least cute? C3: Which Loli/Shota is most confident despite her appearance? Who is least confident? C4: Which character fulfills the most of your favorite loli clichés? (like being tiny, clumsy, whatever comes to your mind when you think of Lolis). No grapefruits here! BONUS Choco! Give an extra chocolate bar to… …each Loli/Shota who is actually 16 years old or older. …each Loli/Shota who has an awesome fashion sense. …each Loli/Shota who has a body complex and overcomes it during the anime. Step 4: Welcome to the first and only unrestricted final of the month! Which finalist do you like more? Crown her/him “The Best Loli/Shota in Anime!” Step 1: Nominate your four favorite Loli/Shota characters! Remember that if you also did the Full Version, you can´t nominate your Full Version winner here again! Since the definition of these terms vary, we will stick with this view from MALs Loli Toplist: “Loli (girls) and Shota (boys) are young looking characters. The general idea is that these characters come off as really innocent, mainly because of their youthful appearance. Whether actually young or not, loli characters have always been there to add a more cute and vibrant atmosphere to their shows. ” The Eliminator! E1: Eliminate the tallest character! E2: Eliminate the least energetic character! E3:The Loli/Shota who positively influences her anime more wins! Thank you very much for participating in this survey! ^^ |

A two I guess? I hate it but it's not like I hear it often and It's not the sound I hate the most I think Ah, maybe a shark? 8I I mean like, not a particularly a big one like a great white. I actually did a bit of research on this and I can't seem to find a middle ground of not too small (because that kinda goes against your question as they are commonly kept as pets) and not too big (because although I think sharks are beautiful creatures I would like it to not be able to swallow me whole). But assuming that I did manage to find a shark breed that would be okay in captivity, had the resources to feed it properly, and had enough space for it to live comfortably, yeah I could probably handle it as a pet. I think. I forgot how to spell curiosity a lot, I think it's because I keep thinking it should have another U but it does not. Restaurant is also weird. |

Hi fizzytastic :) Thanks for your neat questions on my hot seat thread, I thought it was time I asked you something back so now I've stalked yours :O It's been interesting reading your answers. You mentioned that you wished there were more sequels and reboots coming out these days, so I wanna know: which anime would you most like to see a sequel or reboot of? (no matter how unlikely!) PS: I really agree with the likes and dislikes lists on your profile! Maybe I'll send you a random friend request... PS2: omg I love this emoji ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ |
