Happy Birthday!

Then I suppose I'll just watch the first seasons of the show and see if I like it. I'm not really into Shounen anymore. What about Yakusoku no Neverland? Any good?

Nice one, man.

What do you think of the MHA manga? I see you're current on it. I read a lot of American comics, so I think I might appreciate the references to Golden Age comics and such.

SRY, but I had to send a request. Yet alone that there is somebody out there who watch Hyouge Mono and liked it that much and for Versailles no Bara ( I´m still in search for the manga in German) and at last not the least for your score on Guilty Crown, XXXD, oh, that made my day!
I´m not alone and it feels good not to be alone. XD

I agreed to the score you gave to SNAFU. For the first time in my life I've seen a lot of closed minded pessimistic MC that judge the world and the people surrounding by his own viewpoint and people think is monologues are correct even though they are really wrong and to add up obnoxiously selfish (Teenage EMO's or Introverts that think they are rulers of the world) but this thing is near almost impossible to become near to the realistic approach. I was going to have pity to a guy but the way the show present it's look smart, even though it doesn't and glad they didn't anything actually, and trying it best to become something else by escaping the tropes. It still do the same thing but much more worst. In the end nothing huge nor something noticeable. Well everything was force in the first episode.

What's your though while Watching Eden of the East? I am going to on-hold the series for a week so I can have some time in Space Brothers. The 2 episode kinda confusing which direction it's aiming for it more like recollection of one identity in relation to "Major" event happening. But the NEET thing is pretty interesting after episode 3 concerning the cruelty of "job interviews". I know because I am experiencing the same thing I could say myself an official NEET after graduating with currently no job yet and waiting for a blessing to come.

This is a pleasant surprise. To be honest, I went ahead and decided, found sources for, etc. the Precure I'll start with since your reply didn't come before, and was planning on starting today or tomorrow. I still greatly appreciate your reply though since it gives me context on a lot of Precures I know less about, and makes me feel more confident in my pick-- Heartcatch, which seemed generally well liked all around.

I had generally figured that Heartcatch, Fresh, Futari wa, and Princess would be the ones I'd be most interested in with Suite, Smile and Maho Girls somewhere behind. I had read about Maho Girls and thought the magical school idea sounded interesting for a mahou shoujo, but I was hesitant because of the seemingly negative reception you mentioned. After reading your thoughts I feel more confident in the three I was most interested in, more confident in giving Maho Girls a try since you liked it, and less confident in Princess since my basis for that was very one-sided. I also get the impression that there may be more Precures to my liking than I initially assumed. Suite and Smile in particular were big question marks for me since I wasn't finding much info I felt I could rely on, whereas now it sounds like they would definitely be worth giving a chance at least.

Also, I don't generally buy into the whole "nostalgia" deal unless it was an anime someone watched in their childhood or one of their first anime that they recognized as anime. If you watched Futari wa and thought it was good, I'll take that at face value rather than trying to diminish it.

So, again, thank you. That was very helpful!

Annnd I just found out that Futari wa apparently has a more physical take on fights itself. For some reason I was under the impression that the earlier, less flashy Precures approached combat like a traditional mahou shoujo. I'm kinda conflicted now because I tend to like approaching things from the start/their most significant point when I'm not looking for something specific.

The something specific in this case was actually the unusual (for a mahou shoujo) take on combat. I'm not sure if getting the visual candy from the get-go is as important if the original series delivers on story and action...

Would you consider the action aspect in Futari wa interesting? Or are there particular merits to starting with Futari wa (akin to, say, starting with U.C. in Gundam)?

Hey. Do you mind giving me some advice concerning the Precure franchise? You're one of the only people I know of who has a lot of experience with the franchise coupled with taste and storytelling values similar to my own.

For my first Precure I'd prefer the best looking one-- especially in terms of combat-- that doesn't unduly neglect the story aspect. Which do you think would best fit that description? Fresh and Heartcatch both seem like they might fit the bill.

Funnily enough, I still have Crash downloaded, haha. Okie dokie then, I'll be contacting you in a week or so, since I'm wrapping up some university related stuff. I have a couple of subjects left to pass so that I can get my bachelor's degree, haha.

Hey, sure thing! We could finish Bubblegum Crash as well, haha. I've been a bit busy for the past several months, so I barely managed to watch anything. It was only near the end of December that I got back into anime again, just in time to wrap up the Fall season.

Which Gundam did you have in mind, or did you want to watch Gasaraki first?

Hi there, did some SAO research and saw some old thread where you discussed it and i am impressed by your statements and arguments.

here is the link where i saw you: https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=504373&show=20

Well put forward arguments about plot holes and what more. It would be awsome to have a nice discussions with you on anime in general. You seem to be quite intelligent.
