Hi~ Thanks for the add! Nice to meet you too : )

Glad to see another 95 GitS fan (＠⌒ー⌒＠)

Ya, I haven’t. It’s been three months—actually, no, maybe more. Ya, it’s been strange, I guess. It’s not that I gave up on anime, I’d still love to go back, but those past 3 months were some of the most intense for me. I went through some tough days, I’m glad it’s over now. I can rest finally. But I’m in that state of temporal stasis—a state of mind where everything stays still. Days pass, but nothing changes. I’m finally free, but what did that freedom cost?

Excuse my bad attempt at being philosophical, but the truth is I was busy with life and sort of lost myself in that immersion—the immersion of reality as opposed to what we consider to be real. I don’t know. Feeling as if life is always a haste and wishing to stop the inevitable from turning the clock into the next day. Yet despite that, time flows indefinitely no matter your attempts to stop it. Seeing yourself in real time, yet in fact what your eyes just processed is only but a reflection of the past. It’s a scary thought, honestly.

I know I’m overthinking this, but I enjoy such ponders and love to get lost in that moment. It’s comforting to stop and listen. Listen to the buzz the world emits amidst the ambiance of living. Excuse me, I’m not making any sense, I know. I’m writing everything as I speak, and I might’ve spilled some of my raw, fresh, processed thoughts. I don’t mean to be deep or sound like it.

Anyways, I won’t delete any of this, but I’d like to steer the conversation a bit. You know that feeling of being so consumed by your work you start to forget how to enjoy the things you used to? I realized stopping somewhere, even shortly, turns a habit into a pattern and a pattern into a new way of life. Yet it happens so slowly you don’t notice it until someone points it out, and then you feel stunned in how it all came to be. Your sense of time becomes skewed as you try to retrace your steps and relearn yourself, seeing how you changed without realizing the change had even happened. It’s interesting how often it occurs—an inevitable consequence that even if you attempt to stop it, you may as well accelerate its progress without realizing it.

That holding on to the past will make the present feel more like the past, as you won’t get to live it. Like how gamblers hold on to the dice thinking one more roll will bring back their winnings, only to lose it all and gamble some more. I want to let go of that dice and be alive in the moment for a while longer.

Again, I don’t know what I just said. Anyway, how have you been? I missed our conversations. While I’m aware of me not finishing Nichijou despite starting it nearly 10 months ago, I still heavily enjoyed it and will commit to finishing it soon. Honestly, it was quite a journey, as it helped me cope with some tough days—hence why I kept it as backlog for that specific purpose.

I’m also excited for the new series City (Nichijou’s successor). I’m glad that style is back, as I knew I’d surely miss it once I finish the series. Not to mention having many on my plate, such as Monster, Violet Evergarden, Baccano, Jin-Rou, Stand Alone Complex, and many more. Not to mention getting back into video games after stopping for a long while. Games like Final Fantasy, Persona, Silent Hill, and a few more.

I’m glad I’m getting back to the things I love. I feel like I should balance out some aspects and enjoy in moderation rather than in delayed frequencies. Burnout goes both ways, and I need to remember that.

Thank you for the birthday wishes much appreciated!
