Your most likely on this profile cuz you saw the Advance Wars signature or maybe you saw a post I made sometime in the 2010s. I spent a lot of time on Casual Discussion under the name Coolspot, but I changed my name to Mirania to reflect what it is elsewhere. My current favorite fandoms are Lodoss, YKK, and Patlabor( Discord below). I listen to music more than I watch anime but generally do not share tastes with people in the anime community.
My Discord is Mirania, but you may want to DM me here first, I am hesitant to accept random friend requests on discord. If I unfriended you at any point between 2015-2024 it was most likely because there was 3+ years of silence.
Can't really remember when I first watched it (probably late 90's on DVD), but I've rewatched the series and the movies a few times over the years. My personal favorite of the franchise is and will continue to be the Patlabor 2 movie. Patiently awaiting the next entry, Patlabor EZY, but hoping (probably fruitlessly) that it won't be full CGI (not a fan) like the "movie" Patlabor: Reboot was.
As time has gone by I've found that I prefer the subbed versions over the dubbed ones. All to often, while the English VA's for various series have done a fair job, it feels like they're overacting when they do some parts. Particularly when it's a "law enforcement" series or movie. Mind you, I've run into that same feeling with the original cast members as well, on occasion. Either overbearing for the male parts (think: Dirty Harry) or almost schreechy (think: fingernails on chalkboard) for the females.
I'm in the same boat nowadays, but my taste used to be more restricted some years ago. Now there are more artists in my group of preference, and lately the ones in my playlists. The Who went here once in 2017, but I couldn't attend the concert and other ones in the same year. I saw Guns N Roses and Foo Fighters though; really enjoyed their performances. Lately, I was listening to Traffic and David Bowie. I never noticed how Winwood is a great composer.
That's really good to hear! What did the Duolingo founder have to say?
Also, we're getting really nice weather here this year as well, and summer came early for my area. It's currently around 80°F, which is hot for this time of the year, although that's probably not considered hot where you're from, lol.
Yes! For me it was a beautiful manga that was an absolute pleasure to read. Gives a feeling I haven't really experienced before, in manga anyway, this kind of calm, relaxing atmosphere. Unfortunately, I haven't seen the anime adaption.
I'm glad you're still going, though, and I hope at least that by saying you haven't changed that much, it's not a negative thing overall. Of course, we don't really know one another, but I appreciate that you've taken the time to respond to my message :-)
I was going through some old forum threads, and found a post by you from 2015 about your expectations of the next 10 years. As it has almost been 10 years, I wonder how everything worked out for you. You were a bit ambiguous, but I hope everything panned out okay and you gained the knowledge you wanted.

Hmm I don't think so... I don't use my full username on Discord. Only "Kitsu". What kind of songs do you like?

So, how have you been?
Happy belated birthday, nonetheless.
There's some stuff every now and again. Have you checked out Frieren? Despite the hype I though i thought it was a pretty solid show.
Have a good one!
