Life doesn't exist for a reason. It just does. Though, would've been nice if the human race was never created.
Friend Requests
]
PLEASE do not send friend requests to me unless you have interacted with me for a decent amount of time. I want to get to know people before I become friends with them. Because I take friends very seriously.
Dropped anime
I am NOT willing to waste my time for an anime to, "get good".
However, I am willing to hear out any reasons why I should continue watching an anime I dropped.
Tastes
Iyashikei:I sometimes just love to chill and relax.
Arthouse:I love abstract, weird, stylistic shit.
Ecchi/harems:I want more than just generic boob/panty shots. Bonus points if there's femdom. But usually, I loathe tsunderes.
Psychological:one of my favorite genres in anything. I LOVE the exploration of the human psyche.
Horror:No, not exactly the gore kind (though I do like gore). I mean, REAL fucking horror, horror meant to really get under your skin.
Historical:do I need to explain?!
Mythology:Japanese mythology is my favorite, but anything else will do too.
Comedy:depends. I love dry, slapstick, absurd, but if it's just characters screaming every 5 seconds (*coughs* Aho Girl), then no.
Romcoms:I like lighthearted, mindless, turn-your-brain-off, easy-watch, dumb, romantic, fun.
Atmospheric:for any tone.
Hentai:only femdom. Including S&M, humiliation, pegging, and especially dominatrix outfits. I also love tender femdom.
Mixed tastes
Yuri/Yaoi:I won't watch if it's the ONLY selling point of the anime. I want more than JUST homosexuality. I also don't care much for gay drama.
Shoujo:I hate the fabulous gay looking art style
Romance:If it's the ONLY focus, then I don't care, unless there are other stuff going on. But I definitely do like twisted romance though. I especially love romance between a human and supernatural creature.
Sports:I don't care for, unless it's something insane and out there like Keijo.
Drama:I've gotten tired of "realistic drama". I now prefer drama anime that are, "artsy" or, "atmospheric", or drama anime that don't take themselves too seriously.
Mecha:Eh, I'm fine enough with the idea, but I need MORE than just giant robots.
Rating system
My rating score is based entirely on how much I like an anime, not necessarily whether I think it's good or not.
10/10:God-tier. Makes me go nuts. A classic. Resonated with me on the rawest level possible. Stick with me even after years later.
9/10:Deeply enjoyed nearly every second. Seriously hit me, but not quite at a level to make me go nuts over it.
8/10:Extremely interesting and enjoyable, and I genuinely loved. Stuff I might come back to again.
7/10:Pretty good time. I might think back on fondly, but I probably won't rewatch.
6/10:A decent time, but forgettable. I don't regret watching, but it didn't strike me as memorable, either.
5/10:I feel neuteral about. I don't exactly like or dislike. Probably would've preffered if I hadn't watched these.
4/10:Boring, uninteresting, forgettable.
3/10:Really annoyed me, but not quite where I hated it.
2/10:I utterly hated.
1/10:Absolutely loath. If this took on the form of a person, I would kill them.
List of problems common among MAL users. They
-Send friend requests, without having talked to you for a decent amount of time.
-Focus more on peoples' behavior rather than the point they're making.
-Will scratch, claw, to find ANY reason to argue, no matter how stupid it is.
-Nitpick, usually to throw away an argument, AKA straw-manning.
-Misunderstand constantly, no matter how clear the point is.
-Misrepresent peoples' points.
-Become condescending out of nowhere.
-Over simplify/exaggerate the points others make.
-Ignore key points/questions people make.
-Constant shitposts.
-Almost always respond to only argue, not actually discuss.
This is lo fi chillhop. Basically, songs that incorporate hip hop beats, relaxed melodies (usually jazz), and sometimes other noises (voice clips from inspirational speeches or movies, the sound of coffee in a cup being stirred, stuff like that), all with sound grain and put to a lower quality intentionally to give it an old-school feeling.
Yeah, that's what I mean by instrumentals.
I'd send you links to really good jazz pieces, but I've been overloading you already...
(Hey, you started me talking about music... once you get me going, I'll never stop). I think I've heard of it, listened to a few songs here and there, but never seriously.
By old school vs modern, I mostly meant rock from the 60s-80s, as well as rock that came out recently.
See, that's what bad music videos are. Good music videos add visuals that support the themes of the song. Some of my favorite music videos:
Elastic Heart (despite it being simple, I think this one's my all-time fave.. holy cow)
That sounds really cool! And even if the audio's garbage, I would love to hear it. I think it's awesome that you're trying it out! I don't think I've ever tried writing my own raps, haha...
Genius is fantastic. I also love watching the music videos (if they have one).
My tastes... well, in short, anything that's well-written, whether musically or lyrically. But, more specifically:
-any musical group that sometimes, but not all the time, sings about serious subjects (i.e. Gorillaz, Twenty-One Pilots)
-lo fi chillhop
-anime music (I have an absurd amount of it on my phone)
-instrumentals
-sappy (a la Ed Sheeran, old-school Taylor Swift)
-intense songs about sex and drugs such as this one or this one.
-elegant musicians, like Adele
-jazz ♥
-rock (both modern and old-school)
...that's mostly what I can think of for now.
Ohh~ If you do get the recording, I would love to hear it, I think that would be really cool.
Eh, 4 minutes isn't that long. Then again, I don't value my time as much as some people (obviously, having no dropped anime... RIP)
Seriously, though, Genius is amazing. I recommend looking up most songs on there, as a lot of times entries have analysis that you would have never understood or realized in the beginning. Besides, it's always good to look at the lyrics, anyway.
As for your tastes, I suppose that makes sense ...*decides to switch out the links to one of the songs*
Okay, noted that I'll like those two songs, but I've been kinda crazy busy lately. I have a huge essay due tomorrow at midnight, I'll be gone all day tomorrow, and I'll be working all day Friday. But I have a lot of time Saturday, so if I haven't done it by then, I guarantee that's when I'll do it.
I'll send you songs of my second favorite band later.
...I...ha... I hate to say this, but "CandleintheDark" is really cliche. I've heard that (and variations of that) an absurd amount of times in me life, it sounds hardly original.
That's a good idea. Keep it up, and keep me posted on how it goes.
See, it's not the "Death and Love" that I'm the most proud of. It's the "Of", as in "belonging to, relating to, or connected with." My username, my profile, my taste--it's connected to death and love. I write "of death and love". Sure, I could have kept it just "OfLove", but that wouldn't accurately represent my tastes or aesthetics. Which is why I decided to switch it to its proper name in the first place.
Eh. I always intended this to be my username (I've used it on other accounts before I made this one way back in 2014), I made a screwup when I first signed up and just realized that I could fix that screwup. I'm particularly glad to be rid of the 111. Numbers on accounts aren't my thing. So if it's trying to be "deep", blame my 16-year-old self (well, you could blame my current self for still liking it, but I have no regrets).

I know you literally just said that you hate modern rap, but modern's all I know, so here's one of my favorite rap songs (I also recommend you watch the music video). And here's another rap sing I was listening to the other day.
A few of my favorite bands' songs.
I'll send you songs of my second favorite band later.

Also, you never said what you thought of my new username :D
Punpun was just a reaction image from me.
I was talking about something non-Punpun-related, anyway. Do you notice anything new?
It's Punpun. Yes, he looks weird, that's the point.
That's not what I was talking about, anyway.
