Kon'nichiwa! Welcome to my humble corner of the internet. I am a creative short story writer by trade, and I review and critique anime alongside gathering fresh ideas for my stories. It is my personal philosophy to give every genre a shot whether I find it initially interesting or not, and I will watch pretty much anything between the early 80's and currently airing anime. I won't go further back than that due to quality and length concerns, with the only exception being anime with historical or artistic value. Seasonally I watch just about everything that releases per year, only skipping those that are clearly terrible or too much time investment to catch up to. As a result, I usually watch 5-6 hours of anime per day. Yes, anime is my life. My list will make that clear enough. Aside from older anime I watched back when I first started getting into anime, I review everything I finish. Short versions are right here on my anime list, and full-length versions with notes are compiled in a separate Google doc. I am also reaching completion on a long-term vintage OVA project, with the best discoveries reviewed and listed in this interest stack. I generally have a penchant for seeking out obscure or underrated anime; popular series often don't do much for me. When it comes to manga, I am an absolute yuri fiend. Cute girls are my lifeblood. As such, expect any legitimate critiquing to be tossed wholesale out the window for my manga list. Other than that, it's really just appreciating good artwork when it comes to manga. A good story to go with it is the icing on the cake. But enough of my monologuing. I have squirreled away all of my extensive ranking lists within the tabs below, ranging from anime rankings to seasonal lists and (very) outdated waifu lists. Also, make me feel better by checking out my chronological Monogatari list below; just maybe someone will find it helpful. With that said, I will leave you with one of my favorite anime quotes: "The separation between love and hate is no thicker than a whisper." -- Rurouni Kenshin: Trust & Betrayal, ep4 Ordered left to right, top to bottomA Place Further Than the Universe, Puella Magi Madoka Magica, Kuzu no Honkai, Violet Evergarden, Monogatari Series, The Ancient Magus' Bride, Fruits Basket, Eighty-Six, Frieren: Beyond Journey's End Remaining Anime in Top 20 Rank 10: Heiki Monogatari Rank 11: Serial Experiments Lain Rank 12: Aria the Animation Rank 13: Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation Rank 14: Bloom Into You Rank 15: Psycho-Pass Rank 16: Bocchi the Rock!

Mai-san is my only #1 forever.] Top 10 Favorite Characters (Non-waifu) Not every character necessarily falls under the 'waifu' category. Well-written engaging characters have always been a large draw for me in how good an anime is, so I have a category devoted just to them. The following are favorites who truly define the anime they are a part of through relatability, impact or simply themselves being what makes their anime excellent: Rank 1: Chise Hatori (The Ancient Magus' Bride) Rank 2: Yona (Akatsuki no Yona) Rank 3: Akane Tsunemori (Psycho-Pass) Rank 4: Homura Akemi (Puella Magi Madoka Magica) Rank 5: Tsubasa Hanekawa (Monogatari Series) Rank 6: Violet Evergarden (" ") Rank 7: Akari Mizunashi (Aria the Animation) Rank 8: Ranka Lee (Macross Frontier) Rank 9: Anzu Hoshino (Romantic Killer) Rank 10: Ryuuko Matoi (Kill la Kill) Top 10 Favorite Lighthearted/Funny Characters Sometimes all an anime needs is that one character who's a fun ray of sunshine to prove engaging and enjoyable to watch. This category is rather wide, so consider this to only be a rough order: Rank 1: Ranko Hata (Seitokai Yakuindomo) Rank 2: Mako Mankanshoku (Kill la Kill) Rank 3: Yoshinoya (Hidamari Sketch) Rank 4: Elucia de Lute Ima (The World God Only Knows) Rank 5: Hotori Arashiyama (SoreMachi: And Yet the Town Moves) Rank 6: Miyuki Kobayakawa (You're Under Arrest) Rank 7: Rin Shima (Yuru Camp△) Rank 8: Darkness (Konosuba) Rank 9: Tsuyuri Kumin (Chuunibyou demo Kai ga Shitai!) Rank 10: Poemi Watanabe (Puni Puni☆Poemii) Genres: Psychological, Historical, Shoujo Ai VTubers: Shirakami Fubuki, Hana Macchia, Amelia Watson Singers: Minami, Hoshimachi Suisei, DiverDiva Gacha Games: Arknights, Azur Lane, Genshin Impact ———————————————————————————————————————————————— I score based heavily off of story, with animation/art being a secondary influence and overall enjoyment bringing up the remainder. There are plenty of 5 or 6/10 anime that I've enjoyed but don't score highly due to their limited plot (Seitokai Yakuindomo for example). ~ 10 ~ Strong emotional impact/highly memorable anime with next to no flaws. 9 ~ Highly compelling story or simply all-around very well made, although not without minor flaws here and there. 8 ~ Has one or more elements that make it stand out from just being ‘good’. 7 ~ My ‘baseline’ score for any anime that I then go +/- from. If it’s fun to watch and, while not necessarily standout good isn’t distractingly poor either, it’ll fall here. 5-6 ~ Has one or more elements that are rather poor, but not so much so that it ruins the anime as a whole. 3-4 ~ Has distractingly bad elements that detract from the overall anime. 2 ~ Very bad overall, but 'might' have something good if I look hard enough. 1 ~ Irredeemably terrible, lost braincells watching it. ~ As for manga, it's more or less a simple 1-10 enjoyment rating. I'm not overly picky as long as the art and story are interesting.
