My name is Karen Nguyen. No nicknames please.
Hello. My name is Karen Nguyen. I'm just a random socially awkward and socially anxious anime fangirl that loves to watch anime. I watch most genres including donghuas (Chinese anime) but love fantasy and wholesome/heartwarming slice of life the most. I prefer happy endings to remind me there is hope in our current disturbed world. While it looks like I watched a lot of anime, roughly half are commercials and pvs and mvs I watched and logged. I'm OCD so I prefer to record everything I've ever watched. My profile pic and About me pic are from Mo dao zu shi.
A Harsh and Unique Way of Rating and Ranking
My rating system is MUCH harsher than others so if you see a lot of low scores it doesn't mean I think the show is necessarily bad. In my mind, 5 is average (the equivalent of a 6.5-7.5 on myanimelist). Anything below a four means I objectively found it boring/offensive/disturbing/inappropriate. However, any piece of media has a purpose and an audience and my scores are based on my own judgment and personal enjoyment. Please remain respectful.
My rating scores are as follows
10 - NEVER; no such thing as a 10 or perfect show
9 - masterpiece; as close to perfection as possible
8- WoW! Amazing! Great! Touched my heart and Left an lasting impact
7 - good; was fun and kept my interest or makes me cry and depressed or angry at the injustice of the world and makes me think
6 - not bad; something different or just something fun
5- average; in the middle; not bad or good; was alright
4 - not my type
3-boring
2- bad; offensive or inappropriate
1- regret every watching; RARELY ever give this

About fan service, i didnt mind it at all .. i do like fan service .. but only if its done in an ok manner and not on some loli ... tho , i did felt a bit werid cause how many times they focused on how small wendy chest is .
Ic well hxh has super comple systerm just lik jkk .. jjk curse energy thingy is super confusing and too much info .
Well with lucy , i think her main tools are celestial only . Surely she coud gets stronger by herself but i think most Celestial wizards rely on their guardians only and using them also takes lot of energy . Erza to me was the best in the show and her armours were cool .
Hmm , each character were soo good .
I actually skipped all filler arcs .. so cant say how good or bad it was . Animaton in fights were def good
It's 3-gatsu no lion, it tackles themes like getying over a depression and cherish the people who are important in your life. It has a very lovable cast, great story telling and the ashes episodes in season 2 are in my top 5 favorite anime moments. I'm caught up with the manga and the serie keeps being constintantly amazing all the way trough.
I've seen My Roommate is a Cat and really liked this one! I prefer more light-hearted and cozy slice of life shows. My favourites are Flying Witch and Akebi's Sailor Uniform. I also enjoy watching cgdct shows like Yuru Camp and K-On which I think can be classified as sol as well.
Well, I've been putting off Dandadan since I knew it had a sequel coming up, so that for sure. People are already kinda killing me on My Dress Up Darling like they did on S1 so Idk if I'll watch that right away Orz, But it looks good? Kaijuu 8 I'm hype for. I can't believe Call of The Night is getting a s2! My friend read Gachiakuta and told me that one will be hype so it's on my list. Ofc Sakomoto Days and Dr. Stone I've been waiting for. My hype for Panty and Stocking is a little killed with the VA change.
Wasn't expecting to see Rascal Does Not Dream of Santa Claus, there's a lot of variety this summer.
Kind of waiting for Psychic Princess and Bai Yao to drop their latest season before I start those :3.
