hi there, MAL's resident byrb of prey here, sportin' that obsessive anime mindset
My current anime consumption arc focuses on extrinsic reading rather than intrinsic, meaning I'm interested in analyzing the historical and cultural context of the work whenever I find an angle, mainly focussed on otaku culture and anime internal references.
I also apparently like fun now, post-elitism is one hell of a drug. Stay woke, be cool, remain epic. (2020)

Anime hasn't really been my main source of entertainment and deep dives for the past 2 years now since I've been completely consumed with watching hololive. Only watching anime sporadically these days. Stopped watching seasonals in 2021. It has been a solid run since 2017 in which I watched pretty much every seasonal that even remotely interested me. (2023)






how my rating system works:

10 - PERSONAL FAVORITE
9 - MASTERPIECE
8 - FANTASTIC
7 - GREAT
6 - GOOD
5 - AVERAGE
4 - MEH
3 - BAD
2 - TERRIBLE
1 - NOT VERY GOOD

remember guys, its all subjective.

A wonderful retrospective look at a studio that faded from its short time in the limelight (I've also attempted to write some blogposts on arms once lol):

An interesting look at the concept of the otaku database mindset and it's equivalent in the industry (from otakus - for otakus):


The quintessential video on Satoshi Kon, strap in for a heavy ride on this one:


Over an hour of pure joy:


Stand-in for the Cartoon Cipher's many great videos on the (western) anime industry:


The quintessential "digi" video on a particular creator:
