MY HISTORY WITH ANIME
As a kid, I watched English dubs of "kiddy" anime like Pokemon, Gundam SEED and Duel Masters (the less popular cousin of Yu-Gi-Oh!).
I don't remember watching any anime for a few years, until 2016, when I decided to relive Gundam 00 to hype myself up for a trip to Japan. However, I would only occasionally watch a few Gundam series like Iron-Blooded Orphans and The Origin and a random anime, Infinite Stratos (I don't even remember how I came to know about it).
It was only in February 2018, right after my exams, that I decided to delve into anime with Psycho Pass. And just like that, I started watching one series after another.
MY FAVOURITE GENRES
- Mecha (Definitely influenced by watching Gundam as a kid)
- Sci-Fi (I've always loved the genre regardless of the medium)
- Slice-of-Life (I only found it through anime, and it is great)
MY LEAST FAVOURITE GENRE
- Horror (Never liked scary stuff like ghosts or gore)
MY RATING SYSTEM
10 - May have a particular issue with it (e.g. excessive gore, polarising among fans), but the impact it has left on me will stay with me for a long time. Would definitely recommend many of them to first-timers.
9 - Great characters, story, execution, etc., but not as memorable or impactful as my 10s
8 - Engaging (whether it be the characters or story) enough for me to want to binge-watch as it means I am getting invested
7 - Solid, but has a number of issues that stop it from being engaging (e.g. slow pacing)
6 - Would get a rating between 1 and 5 if not for a few saving graces
5 - I wonder why I watched this, probably only because it's part of a bigger whole
4 to 1 - Varying degrees of "What a waste of time" to "This is blasphemy, why does it even exist?". Thankfully I haven't had to rate anything this low. Yet.
