Thank you for your interesting answer.

You talked about how anime positively influences you. How about negative influence? Have you ever watched an anime and thought that it did or does or will influence you in a bad way? What are anime's (as a whole) bad points in your opinion?

It was good!! I started it because I was feeling sad and somebody recommended it to me as a good pick-me-up and it really was. It was very sweet and chill. ;v; Natsumi was my favorite, then maybe Hotaru. I liked them all though! I especially liked Renge and Candy Lady. Those scenes with them napping together healed my heart. I liked the scenes with the sisters picking on each other too, it definitely reminded me of my own sister lol. It's definitely in my top 5!! I will eventually, I'm kind of bad about watching sequels of even things I like. >v>' I still haven't watched Natume's Book of Friends season 4 or the 3rd season of Kyou Kara Maou and that's got one of my favorite characters ever in it. So yeah I'll watch it for sure but it might take a while. (´・ω・`)

Thank you for your interesting questions!

Honestly the only way I think anime has influenced me is that I'm kind of desensitized now. Not in the way middle aged people think video games desensitize kids to violence but like, to weirdness. For example, my best friend and I were watching Mob Psycho 100 and we texted each other after we finished the fist episode. She brought up the vegetable heads and the broccoli and tomatoes in the op and was very confused about it. But I just kind of went "yeah okay that's normal" and moved on. (ᗒᗜᗕ)՛̵̖ Similarly, we were watching Jojo together because a new episode aired but we were hanging out and she really wanted to watch it so we did. She was pausing every once in a while to explain things but I kept saying "no it's alright you really don't need to" because every time something happened I was just ready to roll with it, no questions asked. Basically normal weird things aren't weird to me anymore because I've seen weirder. I love that though, so I guess that's not really negative?

Besides that, I really don't think anime influences me in any way that I didn't already agree with as I'm a person who needs real convincing and good arguments to change my opinions rather than subliminal messaging or things like that. So if an anime has something big in it that I hate or heavily disagree with then I'll drop it and it doesn't really get a chance to influence me anyways. One reason I'll drop an anime is if I don't like how they treat the woman characters. If it's too fetishy or degrading then I won't put up with it. That's why I dropped Welcome to the NHK. The main character was a creep, but he was clearly meant to be relatable. Like, There's this one scene where he's got a camera and he's creeping around a middle school to try to gross himself out so he forces himself to change.. by taking pictures of middle school girls' underwear. He gets caught and apologies. Then the wind blows and skirts fly and he's taking panty shots of 13-15 year old girls. And it's played off as a joke? That's not funny, that's nasty. But like, no matter how many people tell me to get over it or it's not that big of a deal because "it's just a joke", I'm still not gonna be okay with it. Most of the things I've dropped after the first or second episode is because they were too gross.

That's definitely anime's biggest bad point for me. But still, it's not like it's in everything so it's not overwhelming. That and it's also not like the rest of the world doesn't also have this problem. The fetishization of women is definitely something I'd change if I could though.

Pffft I wish, no I meant aesthetic as in I find him visually appealing. He reminds me of the stars and I love that. ;x; I have an aesthetic blog on tumblr (that's not very strict because it's really just stuff I find visually appealing and that varies) but a lot of it can be summed up as Nova in terms of colors and.. I don't know, aura, I guess? >>'

Thank you!! (T ^ T) I honestly tried pretty hard because sometimes when I write long things like that my thoughts get jumbled and the product isn't very.. readable. I'd like to hear your thoughts on that as well actually!!

I'm not entirely positive how to answer that honestly? I just like it when gender roles are broken/ignored. I'm not sure which characters I could pick that break the most gender roles? The first characters that come to mind I guess are Ryouta Kawara from Hatoful Boyfriend and Haruhi Fujioka from Ouran though.

Ryouta just likes wearing dresses. Which is cool because the game doesn't treat it as a big deal, which is cool because it shouldn't be a big deal. It's just clothing. And, as a dating sim, Ryouta is the Childhood Best Friend™ character you, the girl protagonist, can date. Which is another thing I think is cool because wearing dresses and skirts, or being feminine in general, doesn't inherently make a guy gay. He's just a dude that likes to wear dresses and it's not a big deal and I like that. Also he's a fun and interesting character which is a big plus. (❁´▽`❁)

Haruhi is definitely one of my favorite female protagonists!! She has a lot of quotes that I really appreciate and here's my favorite: “Listen, Senpai, I don’t really care whether you guys recognize me as a boy or a girl. In my opinion it’s more important for a person to be recognized for who they are rather than for what sex they are.” That means a lot to me because that's something I agree with. I appreciate that she's never put on an unrealistic pedestal too. Or, she's always felt real, if that makes sense.

Rena is indeed great! She was the only one in the series who really sent chills down my spine, amongst other things.
I don’t think I’ve ever before heard someone describe episode 4 of Higurashi
That’s a cool opinion!
Are you planning to watch the sequel? It’s not nearly as horrifying or confusing, which is a bit of a shame, but the (non-filler) arcs of it are really, really, good imo and it answers the myseries, or by the least gives you keys to dig the answer for some of them yourself ;)

Oh, also Happy Birthday!

Not yet lol, we're kind of a lower-middle class family and mom didn't have the money to buy presents until yesterday, which was cutting it a little close. So we went out to eat tonight and she said she was gonna take me to gamestop tomorrow to pick out a game. ovob I might also get some manga which is always cool.

..Really?? I totally agree that's she's great but Shion definitely scared me the most lol. Me and my best friend were watching it together and after that one arc her introduction's pov was changed from Keiichi to Shion herself we had to make sure the closet was closed before going to bed because no. :)
I think we had a miscommunication somewhere lol, the scene I described in the beginning of the series gave me a heart attack. It was the last episode that I thought was

Definitely!! I think I'll actually rewatch the first season beforehand, both because I enjoyed it and might make my mom watch it and because I want to make sure I have a solid understanding of what actually happened lol. ...But it might not be for a while, watching Higurashi shaves years off my lifespan. It's so stressful. 8)
Sounds fun to me!! Honestly I don't think I'd mind fillers. I'd appreciate these poor kids having a break. I'd like to understand more too lol.

Because I felt like I could have been watching literally anything else. Also, it's way too creepy for me. And, y'know, I've thought about trying to overlook the fanservice for the story before, but a while ago I went to Books-A-Million and picked up one of the novels and immediately put it back down because the very first page was an illustration of the brother filming his naked little sister and another naked girl in a pretty obviously sexual manner. That ruined it entirely for me and I'm never ever giving it another chance. 83

I sure do!! 83c They're my fav kind of faces!! Not sure how to rank them but I'll try (ᗒᗜᗕ)՛̵̖ (note: all of these are gonna be taken randomly off google images)

Aoharu x Kikanjuu isn't high quality but I do really like Hotaru. A lot actually. I kind forgot how cute she was before I went searching for the right scene of her. I had a hard time picking just one screenshot though because she makes these disturbing faces all the time lol. So here's a few I guess:

What a sweet girl (❁´▽`❁)<3

Killua also has a bunch of crazy faces but picking just one was easier because I knew which one was my fav


and I really love how nonchalant Nagisa is about murder and death. May or may not qualify as a crazy face but I love his face so here it is regardless.




Recommend me anime with characters that make faces like these lol

Honestly I have been waiting for this question. I love Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid so much. It's SO GOOD..... It makes me smile the entire episode and me watching it is just like a constant flow of me whispering "I love you" and "I would die for you" at my phone screen. (ᗒᗜᗕ)՛̵̖ It's so cute and sweet and PURE. I love it so much. I can't believe anime of the year came out already. #KobayashiTohruAndKannaBestGirls2k17

What is so great in No.6 that it’s in top of your favourites list? I’m kind of planning to watch it somewhere in the near-future, but I can’t really get much out of the synopsis.



My favorites list is really out of order actually. My #1 favorite is probably Natsume's Book of Friends or Haikyuu. I'm not even sure if it's all added in the order of when I add it either, since I'm pretty sure the most recent one I added was Mushish and that's like, 3rd to last on the list?

I do love No.6 though. I love the novels even more so but I'm fine with recommending the anime too, since I watched the anime first and that's what made me want to read the novels in the first place.

No.6 is set in a post-apocalyptic world and it's basically about this kid, Shion, who is handed everything on a silver platter. He's very intelligent and therefore an important member of society so him and his mother live in a high class area and are very pampered. But one day a criminal who escaped the facilities of No.6, Nezumi, breaks into Shion's house. Shion impulsively let's him stay and takes care of him for the night. He's gone the next morning but No.6 officials find out and Shion's and his mother's elite status is stripped away and now they live in the trashiest area inside the walls of No.6. 4 years later, Shion gets into terribly big trouble and he's being taken in by the police to a place nobody ever comes back from. So Nezumi returns to return Shion's favor to him by saving his life like Shion had saved his.

This all takes place within the first 1 or 2 episodes and the rest is mostly based on Nezumi's and Shion's life outside the city walls. Which is dangerous and hectic and pretty fun to watch.

I've mentioned this before but the characters are definitely my favorite part about No.6, as I'm a very character oriented person and I actually don't care much for dystopian revolution plots. There's just so many unique details that set them apart from other characters and they're very well written and I love them. ;-;

Now, personally, I don't think the anime suffers much in the difference in the adaptation. Not plot wise anyways. The biggest (and only?) problem I have with it is that the characters are so much more deep in the novels. The part I'm most sad about though is that Shion is so much more snarky. My favorite part is when him and Nezumi are running away from the police, like I mentioned earlier, and while they're running Nez makes some comment like "What, you're not tired already are you?" and Shion just deadpans and responds "Oh, on the contrary, I could do with more exercise. Care for a piggy back ride while we're at it?" and I DIED. ....But he just. Doesn't have any of that in the anime. :') There are so many lines they removed. Nezumi is less of the typical stoic jerk in the novel too. He laughs more, Shion threatens to bite his nose off one time and he actually seems kind of scared, shows more emotion in general, ect.

By the way, if you're wanting to watch this I hope you know that it is gay, because it is very gay, and I don't mean fanservice gay. It's actually gay. (ᗒᗜᗕ)՛̵̖ It's like Yuri on Ice in terms of "Yeah they're clearly gay." but doesn't have a shounen ai tag. I'm assuming this is because it's not the main plot point and more of a sub plot.

All in all though I would recommend the anime (the ending made me cry), especially if all of this sounds interesting. Also please don't hesitate to ask any more No.6 questions if you have any because I love talking about No.6 but I felt like this was getting a bit too long already. 8') I hope that cleared some things up!!

Incidentally, the reason I wanted to watch No.6 was that in this year’s anime watching challenge there is a part where I need to watch an anime with a number in its name.

Do you usually prefer to binge-watch anime or watch it little by little? Also do you have some kind of a “schedule” for watching?

Well I made my sister watch Angel Beats, which was technically her first. She watched some of Death Note with me but the episodes she did watch were pretty sporadic. Kind of depends on their tastes though, because I also recommended Ghost Stories to a female friend of mine. As a default though, I'd go with Natsume's Book of Friends, both because it's a shoujo and a personal favorite of mine (I recommended it to a store clerk once actually.)

I'm glad!! I hope you like it when you get around to it, it's very dear to me. Yeah I agree actually, most of my favorite romances aren't actually romance centered. That's a relief lol, I tried pretty hard to give as many non-spoilery details as possible.
That's kind of odd actually, how many anime are there with numbers in their name?? How do you search for those?

I binge. I definitely binge. I watched all of Nabari no Ou in two days in a short period of time, like, I started it at like 5 PM one day and watched 15 episodes all at once and then I finished it the next day (although more intermittently since I had chores that day).

The only reasons I watch anime a little bit at a time are: 1) the anime is airing and I don't have any more episodes to watch. 2) It's boring me and I can only force myself to watch one or two episodes. Or, least likely, 3) I'm busy and have to stop myself from binging.

I definitely don't have any kind of schedule, it'd stress me out if I did. Then I'd procrastinate watching it and fall behind the deadline or whatever goal I'm trying to reach (which is also why I don't participate in challenges.)

That sounds very familiar, I watch pretty much exactly the same way. Especially with the three reasons to not immediately watch more anime. I’ve gone long into morning for too many times.
I do the challenge stuff to force myself to watch anime outside of my comfort-zone, but I don’t really stress about whether I actually finish it.

You seem to be liking Kobayashi-san chi no Maid Dragon quite a lot given it’s already a 10/10. What makes it such a big success?

It looks like a relaxing, cute fun time. This gif alone has convinced me to watch it once it’s finished airing.

I've always kind of wandered how people who only watch one episode at a time do it?? I have a friend like that, I've never brought it up with her because it's not that big of a deal but it makes me curious. Like what else are you doing?? Is there something more important??

A lot makes it a success but really I just like it because it makes me really happy lol. The jokes are funny and the girls are adorable and they're interesting characters and it's a good time. (ᗒᗜᗕ)՛̵̖

Final thoughts on Metropolis? ^^

It was good! It's not something I'll think about a lot if I'm being honest, but watching it was quite nice. That's saying a lot though considering I'm not especially fond of dystopian plots or things lacking deep characters. I'm half tempted to say it's a pleasant watch because of the animation and general aesthetic alone (that would be selling it a bit short though because it does have other things going for it). Like, it definitely is better animated than even quite a bit of modern things. For example ya know how in the Ace Attorney anime sometimes when a character turns their head their face just kinda squishes?

There are no frames like this ever in Metropolis.

One thing I found humorously bad though was the little protagonist boy's voice actor.

I would buy my best friend the Hisoka schwing figure without hesitation.

This was both ironic and to tick off aforementioned best friend. Also like, I did enjoy it, but I just... how am I supposed to look at these various schlong jokes (along with other nasty things) and go "yes good 10/10 material." The most haunting is probably the bath scene with the guessing game. (ᗒᗜᗕ)՛̵̖ I'd watch a season 2 if/when it comes out though.

Just gonna do the short version this time.

Step 1:
• Hunter x Hunter
• D. Gray-man
• Gintama

SF1:
• I kind of have to choose DGM and HxH as the best both considering I've only watched 15 episodes of Gintama and while I do genuinely enjoy it, it has bored me to sleep on occasion.

SF2:
• I have a bad memory I literally do not remember what exactly takes place in these episodes. ;-; Like I remember the stuff that happens usually (likely not small details but the grande scheme of things as a whole) but like, not in order. So I guess I'll go with HxH?? Not a lot of reason behind that other than the fact it's on my favorites list so why not

Final:
• Hunter x Hunter is best long anime

I will pretty much always choose Pokemon because I would kill to see my favorites in real life, but for the sake of switching it up every now and then I'll say Mushishi I guess? Usually while thinking about these things I try to avoid worlds I'd almost certainly die in, and Mushishi is potentially risky, but the sound of being a travelling doctor does sound pleasing.

In retrospect, this makes sense but I was starting to think you misspelled KFC or something. Yes, I'm not in love with the series or anything but I do appreciate Aikawa a lot (ᗒᗜᗕ)՛̵̖ I'd be in the faction that says he's a boy. Like, I think that him saying himself that he's a boy should be plenty and that's that. No debate needed.

#1 is MAL because I'm basically online everyday at least for a few moments to check the news
#2 is Tumblr
Not sure what #3 is?? Maybe KissAnime or Crunchyroll? It probably used to be DeviantArt but I presently hate DA so not anymore lol. Or maybe #3 is Youtube, actually...

Ahh the easiest was probably science or reading. And you know what I was also gonna list my favorite subjects via favorite teachers but my favorite teachers were my science and reading ones so that makes sense I suppose.

Good question!! ( • ̀ω•́ )✧

Boku no Hero Academia 2nd Season: The one I'm most hyped for!!! I'm really proud of Deku and I want to learn more about Todoroki and idk what's happening with dear, sweet Kacchan but I hope he undergoes some good character development from this lol. I think I like it more than first season? Maybe? At least from the beginning of first season probably. As much as I care for Deku, I do not care for shy, anxious, cry baby characters, and the cry baby-ness was a lot more concentrated in the first season. But I really like the intelligent, bold, go-getters which is also who Deku is so he's a a really well written multi-faceted character and he's good!! I really wish every episode was out already so I could binge it. (ᗒᗜᗕ)՛̵̖

Oushitsu Kyoushi Haine: Not sure what I was expecting with this but this wasn't it. It's reeaaally melodramatic and cheesy, but it gives me like one solid laugh like once per episode (mostly because of the teacher) so I plan on keeping up with it.

Seikaisuru Kado: Not sure how I feel about it but better than I was expecting?? Kind of hamfisted and repetitive with it's theme and messages, but pretty entertaining so far. I'm mostly hopping it goes for deep characters than anything else, I like the white haired boy's character design a whole lot and I want more info on him. Also for like, how he found earth and his reasoning for wanting to advance earth's technologies and stuff, because surely he's not exerting this much effort just out of kindness?

Shingeki no Kyojin Season 2: Also better than I was expecting?? I kind of forgot that I liked snk lol. After so long of hearing everybody saying it was way overrated and edgey shounen trash and also after that recent thing with Armin and spoilers and other unnecessary things, I really grew distant from it. So new season is a good reminder of why I liked it in the first place!

Tsuki ga Kirei: Kind of boring but I am holding out on the hope that it gets tragic since it's being worked on by a person who worked on Angel Beats and a person who worked on Orange, and if you know the ending of the one and just the plot of the other I think you'll get where I'm coming from here.

Honestly, most of the time they're questions I'd have fun answering myself. Other than that, I often go to a person's profile or anime list for inspiration, like most other people. I also try to ask questions where the answer could change over time for people with super long threads in case somebody has asked something similar before (for example: what are you planning to watch next?) Aaand sometimes I just get random ideas from random things so I write it down for later or something. Like, one day I was going through my fav anime amvs for whatever reason and then I asked a few people on here if they watched amvs.

But for like, deciding which question goes to who kind of depends on how well I know them? Or what I can assume from their profiles or previous responses? Like, if I have a question about a game I'll probably ask it to someone I think plays games. The people I don't know well or otherwise can't read get the more generic questions I ask everybody and the people I know or enjoy talking to get more personal ones usually. Unless I'm out of ideas or don't have the patience to snoop through older questions, profiles, and list for ideas, then everybody gets generic questions I ask everybody.

you and i are watching totally different shows unfortunetly this season haha
Seems like you have a generally positive impression so far ^^
I saved up Tsuki ga Kirei for marathoning so i hope it gets better since your first impression here is that it is boring...

Do you prefer anime related-questions or non-anime questions? :P
