About Anime and Myself
I discovered anime when I was 6, and it is my only interest that has lasted for such a long time. Usually, I get bored with something in 3-4 years, but anime was an exception: as I grew up with it, my passion only became stronger. I currently see manga and anime as an integrant part of myself.
My profile name comes from my own manga character. "Konoko" is the alias of the MC from the game Oni (that I never played, but I loved the name 😋), and "Asada" is a mangaka's surname that I picked randomly from a borrowed manga's front cover.
My profile image represents my first sketch of Konoko Asada which a MAL friend (unfortunately, no longer on MAL) encouraged me to draw. It's actually part of a larger drawing that I've been working on since 2021 (Yeah! That's how inconsistent I am. 😋) Hopefully, things will change this year.
The top image is an extract from another project. For years, I've kept a sticker with that image of Naruto as my lucky charm in times of adversity. The drawing is my attempt to create a personalized design for a T-shirt. I put the in-progress image here as a reminder to continue. I hope to gradually bring updates.😉

MAL Rewrite Writer & Editor
MAL Rewrite is a community of ambitious people who aim to write top-quality original synopses for anime, manga, and novel entries across the entire database. For me, every synopsis I write or edit becomes a delightful, memorable mini-adventure.😊
From left to right: the first represents edited synopses for two new manga discoveries. The next five represent edited synopses for new anime discoveries. The next three represent edited synopses for anime I love. The last one represents the only synopsis I wrote in 2023 (One Piece anime series).😂
What Happened in 2023?
1) The anime that still shakes me even after 8 months since I watched it: Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso
2) The most healing anime I've ever watched: Usagi Drop
To me, Rin and Daikichi embody the true essence of humanity.
3) The anime music that conquered my heart:
I. Suzume no Tojimari Theme Song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xs0Lxif1u9E
II. Berserk 2nd Season Opening Theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CVNy1p3CrVM
III. Hajimari no Boukensha-tachi: Legend of Crystania Ending Theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RzCKaV1V3zs
4) My favorite 2023 anime character: Nirasaki from Ookami Kodomo no Ame to Yuki
5) The most breathtaking fight I've ever seen in anime or anything else (although the series' CGI was a torture!!!): Guts & Mozgus -> Berserk (2016).
6) The most harmful manga for me: Takopii no Genzai
I don't deny it vividly represents a painful truth, which is a beneficial wake-up call. However, the message is too aggressive for me; not my cup of tea.
What do I look forward to in 2024?
1) Yuru Camp△ Season 3
2) Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica Movie 4: Walpurgis no Kaiten
3) Bleach: Sennen Kessen-hen - Soukoku-tan
4) Hibike! Euphonium 3
5) Gekai Elise
6) Yarinaoshi Reijou wa Ryuutei Heika wo Kouryakuchuu anime adaptation

Do you know if there are any older paintings of 鶴の恩返し? I couldn't find any.
I did find 鶴下絵和歌巻 which is a little bit like a comic strip or film. You can almost see the cranes flying! Someone made a short animated film inspired by it.
Also, do you know of any other anime based on folktales?
