I agree! Art and philosophy are like different perspectives of the same questions. Like the Räräkurlu. It seems scary because others were scared of it, regardless of if it intended to do harm.

I have the David the Gnome book too but I didn’t realise it was a sequel.

Salut! I said in my friend request that I enjoyed your reviews but I realised too late that I had mixed you up as someone who had reviewed Puparia that I had read a few moments before finding your stacks. I do very much enjoy your stacks and favourites though. I was quite sincere about that.

If you notice any inconsistencies or have questions, please let me know. I have a friend who is helping me with titles and to drive some title consistency in the database, so we'd like to be aware of anything that seems off.
Regarding the MnU (thanks for submitting it!), the title should have actually been submitted as "Teruteru Bouzu wa Osamurai" (since corrected).

From my friend:
"The オ O is a prefix intended to show respect for something or used for formal language.
E.g.
Father = Tousan or Otousan
In this case, it's just weird since the title is written in katakana instead of hiragana."

Yeah, it would be great if all the Geidai films could be added. I talked with a mod, and in the future a lot more may be eligible, since most of them have been released on DVD by the university. For the time being though, I know quite a few which do qualify if you'd like me to pass along some for you to submit (I am submitting things too, but I don't have timelines when specific things will be, since I have so much on my radar). You can always feel free to pass along works for me to check if I think they are eligible. Working at a studio is one way for their films to qualify, but even just having a professionally produced commercial or music video is fine. I agree that it would be nice if some of the more impressive doujin could be submitted (or all doujin for that matter, I say the more the merrier), but I don't think perceived quality should become the determining factor, since that would probably lead to even more denials (experimental works don't necessarily have widespread appeal).

Glad you liked the music video, I'll need to check out Off Course.

The artists that are on MAL are a result of user submissions; if it's someone who contributed to a series or is popular, there's a greater likelihood they'll be in. Essentially, if you want to see someone on the site, you'll need to submit them or hope someone else eventually does.

MAL uses the Hepburn romanization system. Macrons are never written for Japanese words here, so you'll want to sound out the vowels. Taking ō for example, I understand if it's at the beginning of the a word it should be "oo", and otherwise, "ou" (with the rare exception like koodori, but this would show up in a dictionary). You can also compare against other titles in the database when you're able.

Edit: I was having an issue sending my reply - seems to have been the Wikipedia link to Hepburn romanization? Or maybe not? It failed last night and this morning after multiple tries. Oh well, I guess, lol.

Here is another APOGEE music video on MAL: https://myanimelist.net/anime/32868/Spring_Stranger
I didn't appreciate it when I first saw it, but revesting it later and now I do, especially the song.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UlZNDGMh8bQ is another one you could try adding. It's related to https://myanimelist.net/anime/10533/Fujilog but should have unique animation (you'll recognize a familiar face making an appearance).

Added

Nice, thanks.

Couldn't agree more, part was definitely handled the best. Especially for the depiction of Goemon and Fujiko. This is my favorite version of both of them. Thanks so much for the comment ^^

You are right with the uptake on her works, there is humour in her works for sure but it depends on how you look at things. I just see most of what she produces as lust if it took on the shape of surreal art. It is true that mainstream anime is on the more "polite" side of things, getting there with falling into temptations we suppress every now and then, but Kabuki just goes for it. I respect that a lot honestly, she's not afraid to throw out outrageous truth, then again, she is on the safe side of the medium making shorts only a few care about. Not enough spotlight to cause a stir.

There's a link on the github page that should show an invite to the server: https://github.com/seanbreckenridge/mal-notify-bot

I would imagine all would have probably thought the works were from some kind of genius. I mean, at the time, this was all groundbreaking stuff. But I would also imagine that the technology would have been praised more than the actual story and such itself. That's how I look at things at least. I feel as if anyone would naturally get invested in the concept and how things work. Probably applies more to an older generation, but even now, I suppose the same is true.

Yeah, it is quite hard to find people who are invested in shorts. Sometimes a small minority would question why even go to such lengths? It makes the anime experience a lot more vast and diverse imo so it is something of a pleasure to see others enjoy it as well. I will never really understand why people will rate them as they would with mainstream anime but it isn't me who has their eyes at the end of the day. Oh well, at least they came across something odd.

Btw, there's actually a discord server for people who like shorts. Idk if you want an invite but I can send one over if you are interested. Said server is also made for notifying when new anime is added into the database.

Ah, Kabuki's works are just amazing. Doesn't try to hide her perverted side which really gives off the right effect when watching her stuff, like some kind of wild art orgy. People like her make the medium that much more interesting. I still haven't finished everything she has, but I might do that soon one of these days.

Thank you for even noticing them lol. It is always nice to see someone else like shorts in their own individual qualities, rather than something comparable to mainstream anime. You might like some MVs from ZUTOMAYO, Harumaki Gohan or YOASOBI. Or if you want something nonsensical, you can try takena's works.

Whilst I like the second season, it just felt a bit disconnected for me in general compared to the first season where it felt like everything happened at the right pace, with the right development for the most part whereas with the second season, it felt a bit all over the place for sure without much genuine progression in Yakumo's character as a whole compared to what we could already figure out from the first season except some plot revelations even though I agree that they were overdependent on it (the yakuza stuff was a bit out there too). Still fairly liked the season overall too despite the issues there. I can understand why most people would love it and say its flawless given the nature of the story and the power and impact the directing and storytelling tends to have on most people and for good reason, I personally just wished for some smoother storytelling and better execution at times with less reliance on out there plot revelations to truly make it a great season like the first. Glad you got to read those comments and feel happy about those.

Okay, sounds like there's a big age difference. In that case I can understand why you haven't seen Muumi. I have also seen Peukaloisen retket but that was in early 00s. I've also had my breaks from anime, didn't watch for years after childhood, but then my friend recommended some anime to me, so I started watching, then I had a fight with my friend and we weren't friends anymore so anime didn't feel like a fun thing to watch anymore, I took a break for many years and then in 2019 I started to watch again because I felt that I was bored and didn't have anything to do.

Inuyasha doesn't have too much romance in it, as you said it has more to do with adventure and action. There is some romance but it's not really an important point in it. And there is also an annoying perverted character, because of course there is.

I can very well understand dropping a series after breaking up. Prince of Tennis probably has its place on my favorite list because it was the first sports anime I watched and I started to play tennis because of it. So it is kind of special to me. But picking it up again sounds like a good idea. Of course it also can get maybe a bit repetitive as it is pretty long and as with many of this type of anime, the plot goes around "playing a match > winning/losing > becoming stronger"

I find Ranma quite entertaining as something more lighthearted to watch, but it does seem repetitive at times, almost all the episodes being about people being after either Akane or Ranma. Of course that's because it is episodic so there's not really any long plotline going on and I guess episodic anime, or actually any tv show usually are like that, having the same basic things every episode and then doing something else with that. And I also dislike characters like Happosai, this kind of perverted old grandpas are way too common in older anime. And very annoying. I haven't seen Urusei Yatsura or Maison Ikkoku, but for Rumiko Takahashi's works, I really liked Inuyasha (well, of course I guess that's also her most known work).

Gintama is pretty good. Of course because it is a parody, there's A LOT of references to other anime (and other media too) and the comedy is quite ridiculous at times (let's say the range of comedy is everything from very well thought jokes and funny things to poop jokes (mostly poop jokes)) but the actual plot behind everything is actually pretty great. The problem is that the actual plot stuff happens most during the few last seasons and the first seasons have only like an episode or two having to do with the actual plot.

What's wrong with Muumi? lol. My childhood Muumi craziness got revived after watching Muuminvalley (Muumilaakso). And yes. you should be deported to Norway for not watching Muumi. Be ashamed. Well at least my profile picture is not Nalle Luppakorva.

Hey man, just passing by to say that i enjoyed reading your tag mini-reviews (or whatever people call them)! Your ratings may seem harsh to some, but you never seem to stoop to a level where you insult a show or where your comments seem unfair.
I gotta say, i really admire that and i hope i can achieve that skill as well at some point in the future.
Cheers!
