Hello, how are you? it's been a long time since we talked, so much thing happened to me but it all ends well. Anw, what have you been watch lately? saw you just finished HxH, but other than that, what else?
Haha, no worries at all! I am terrible at getting back with people on here in a timely manner so I cannot fault you or anyone else for it.
I heard there is a new Jujutsu Kaisen season in the works, but I have not heard about a release date as of yet. Hopefully sooner rather than later! xD
Hello Hisashiburi~ ๏ฟฃO๏ฟฃ)ใ
Just wanna let you know that I've completed Vanitas no Karte ! Hehe purposely waited till it finished airing so I could binge watch it in one go. (ใωใ)
Vanitas no Karte
Animation & art style look very good ! The story was rather confusing at times especially first couple eps but still enjoyable. I really like the OP & ED vibe too~ (Also, it was rather interesting that they went with the english ver for the ED song instead of the jap). Overall it was a good watch for me !
Thanks again for the recommendation ! Oh btw, I've FINALLY, yes finally, decided to watch Gintama as well ! Really excited about it ! This will be my 2nd longest series (which is also the main reason why I have been postponing it). I will be dedicating my entire month of October just for it. I see you are about ~70 eps in, will join you soon !
Cheers~ ส•ฬแดฅ•ฬสใฃ
OH YEAHHHHH???? What did you end up rating HxH??
Who was your favourite?
Here, let me give you my write up:
Arcs Ranked 1) York New: Kurapika is my favourite character, so an arc centered around him was exactly what I wanted. But the degree of how amazing this arc was surpasses any one character. We had Kurapika, Hisoka and Chrollo, and the entire Phantom Troupe. It was written more like a thriller, and contains my favourite fight in the series: Kurapika v Uvogin. 2) Election: I was warned that this arc would be boring, but I ended up falling in love with it. I love me some political intrigue, and seeing old faces made me smile, as well as meeting new ones (eg Alluka). Hisoka and Illumi had me rolling, and of course Leorio's whole nomination was grand. Seeing what Kurapika was up to was heartbreaking. The final episode was beautiful, and I loved the second version of the Hyori Ittai ED. 3) Hunter Exam: super fun, fast pacing, loads of fakeouts, introductions to so many characters, having the OG foursome together, people dying during the exam raising the stakes. My favourite part was probably the tower 4) Zoldyck Family: good intro to Killua's family, a bit short, rescue arc, Canary and that freaky dog 5) Heaven's Arena: establishing and learning the system of nen in a controlled environment. I love a good competition arc. Best fight was Hisoka v Gon. And, of course, the introduction of Bungee Gum (what does it do again?) 6) Chimera Ant: sue me. I thought this arc was boring and the pacing was awful. The best parts were Kite (my love), and Komugi + Meruem. I did not care about the rest. 7) Greed Island: oh greed island. You made me drop the show 5 years ago, and it was no more fun trying to watch you a second time. Super boring training arc (and this is coming from someone who loves training arcs). The only fun part was the end, when Killua, Gon, and Bisky fought their individual fights.
Favourite Characters: Kite because I have a thing for OP teachers who act nonchalant around their students, but in a pinch, they would lay down their lives for them. Bonus for white hair.
Kurapika is my favourite from this series though. Absolutely phenomenal story arc, showing us what it means to be a true avenger. It is dark and lonely, with no happy ending in sight, because no amount of murder can erase your pain.
The episodes were the best when the Shinsengumi were involved (Gintama, not HxH obvs)
Hey there! Thank you so much for accepting!
It is wonderful to meet you as well! I look forward to discussing anime sometime and making your acquaintance!
Oh good! Then you've met Kite! He is straight up daddy
The only arc from Gintama that made me laugh was the Scandal Arc, which is like 200 episodes in. But Okita made it worth the watch. I love whenever he is with Kagura
I see. I will take note on Vanitas no Karte. For Saiki Kusuo, I've caught up on the entire anime series too - really enjoy it ! Oh I have been planning to watch Gintama for a longgg time but never actually started it. Hmm perhaps now it's the right time I should seriously consider it hehe. ^^
Let's see. Then I shall try my best to piece a few recommendations for the ones you haven't watch yet, based on comedy and mystery ! (โงωโง)
======================================================================================
Don't wanna overwhelm you with too many recommendations, so I'll limit myself to just 2 per section below:
โCโoโmโeโdโyโ (โงโฝโฆ)
There's actually too many comedy series out there for me to choose - it's so hard. >.<"
Decided to go for two different types.
Nichijou - Classic 2011 Comedy. One of my favorite series.
Joshikousei no Mudazukai - Underrated series. This pure comedy series only has about 40k users completed.
โMโyโsโtโeโrโyโ (ใปใป๏ผ) Made in Abyss - Adventural mystery perhaps? Be prepared for unexpected discovery and great storytelling. Don't let the character designs fool you !
Bakemonogatari - Definitely one of my favorite mystery series no doubt. The entire series (if you follow all the way through) is sort of around 100 eps long with 3 movies. Of course you don't have to watch all of them. If the story interests you, try out Bakemonogatari first before deciding if you should continue watching or drop the rest.
โSโpโeโcโiโaโlโ โPโiโcโkโsโ (โงuโง) Sora yori mo Tooi Basho - A completed 12 eps series that focus on an amazing adventure journey with bits of comedy and emotional moments. It highlights the hardships and the great exploration theme that comes with it.
Yuru Campโณ - Are you familiar with the term "Iyashikei"? Iyashikei is the sub-genre of SoL, that focus on peaceful and healing theme which allow viewers to relax and enjoy the story without any drama or suspense. Yuru Camp is one of the few perfect definition of it.
======================================================================================
That's all for now. I hope you will find these recommendations somewhat helpful. Do let me know what you think afterwards if you ever decided to watch any of them, even if it's months later!
My favorite genres are SoL/comedy/mystery, but I do watch any genre. If you have more recommendations I'll always gladly take note of 'em.

You liked the election arc? I loved seeing everyone hating Ging so much that they would want Leorio to be the chairman just for punching him
Now I am watching MHA season 5!

Here is to a new found friendship and hopefully a new season of Jujutsu Kaisen and Kami no Tou in the near future!
