Report Krautschi's Profile

I mostly watch dubbed Anime in English.
I am a native German speaker and English is my second language.
Most of my media I consume I do so in English, be it regular TV shows, Games or Anime.
I'm not very good with languages, so I consume most of my media in English to maintain my understanding of it.

I try to give any show I watch my full attention on my first watch.
No fast forwarding. No Distractions or other tasks.
If I watch Anime I do watch Anime.
I believe that when so much work and passion goes into the production of Anime every single show deserves to be watched with my best attention possible simply out of respect for the creators.

Around late 2024 / 2025 I started to rewatch some shows. Noticed I forgot huge portions of the plot of some to the point where I started to doubt if I ever even watched them in the first place...
That's why I started tracking my rewatches - I tagged those with "Rewatched" in my list followed by a x1 for first rewatch, and so on.

I have a Crunchyroll subscription. Although the selection in Germany is rather limited but for now I can get around that with a VPN.
I also started a small collection of Anime Blu-rays. I tagged them with "BD" in my List.

After ten years of watching Anime I bought my first Manga series: Noragami.
Maybe it is a start of a new collection? Tagged it with "Collecting".
I always had a dislike for reading... I'm a rather slow reader and I get easily tired from it.
In the rare case when I did read Manga I exclusively did so on my PC or my Smartphone... which is really bothersome because of all the scrolling around.
I got a new reclining chair lately and improved the lighting in my room so it is a lot less straining on my eyes to read.
I really hope I can keep up my passion for this :)

Rather new to the forums - have used MAL exclusively as a tracking site for over 9 years.
Want to write a bit more on the forums. Tired of doom scrolling on Reddit haha
Not a chit-chatter at all and I'm also not into series / episode discussion.
If you send me a friend request I would really appreciate it if you let me know how you discovered me! =)

My Dropped List is more like a trashcan for my overly long Plan to Watch list.
Started to add some more notes to my list. I try to keep it spoiler free as best as possible!
