This was originally a secondary account for tracking manga/anime while my primary was in A-P and what do you know I use it more now. Scoring is mostly based on enjoyment, then consistency and actual production values. Nowadays I watch anime sparsely throughout the year compared to when I started but I kind of use this site daily. If you want any recommendations on anime take a look at the shows that I rate from an 8 to 10 on my list. My tens have their flaws... obviously! Manga tastes are still up for debate. I decided to switch some of my favorites around since that could mean I'm looking for those kinds of shows at the moment. But all of the top 24 hold a place in my heart (corny af). Gn! (I don't count recaps but do fillers. Notes contain spoilers and are cringe-inducing, you can look at all anime extended notes clicking on the '[Check Notes]' tags and then on 'More' in each entry.)
For those who send me requests, remember:
1. We at least need to have talked before, I know I've accepted people who haven't done that but they did respond to my messages. If you can, please state your reasons, I'm open to discussions on shows however if it's just to increase that already massive friend list count me out, unless, of course, you have something to discuss.
2. If you can please send a message in your request, I've done it myself, you'll be doing far better than those who just send it without any context.
Some of them go on to more seasons and I count them as such, nevertheless, there are exceptions for either bad sequels or great seasons (as well as OVAs and Specials) that surpass the original. Honorable Mentions are kind of difficult to properly rank so don't pay much attention to what spot they're in (after the top 24). Currently aiming to do a TOP 100 for recommendation purposes.

To me anime is entertainment, sometimes I get too caught on to it but believe everything I say here is a personal opinion, I'm not shielding my tastes as they're here for the world to see, I still engage in discussions because there's value in doing so and may give me interesting conversation pieces and refreshing takes to listen to. But there's no reason I'd compromise my entertainment by getting sour and down over disagreements, once you take something as an insult, getting defensive as a result, you've lost your senses. You have tastes, do not make something your whole identity, don't make it all about taking a side.

Just before you look at this list, I have not played that many games, like, at all. I'm just getting into it and it's not my priority.
1. Cruelty Squad: Took 14 hours to get all endings but now I feel like a C E O.
2. Rock of Ages II & III: Fun and addictive.
3. Half-Life: If you give me the option to quicksave I'm going to do it every 3 minutes.
4. Portal
5. Stardew Valley: At a certain point it became a chore to keep track of what I wanted to do in an in-game day.
6. Tomodachi Life & Miitopia: I have a thing for games with character creation even if it's one of the shittiest RPGs where you can only control one character.
7. The Coin Game: For idle time, I love arcades but barely get the chance to go to one.
8. Guitar Hero: Not like I can play it anymore since I sold the guitar and console.
9. Toy Story 3: Never, not even once, touched the story mode.
"Currently playing": Fear and Hunger, Kenshi, Amazing Cultivation Simulator, Earth Defense Force 5, Sifu.
Yikes! You want a live-action (gross🤮) ranking instead of animuh ranking! At an animuh website! You disgust me.

I have a Letterboxd, very easy to search.
What am I currently focused on reading? Even I don't know! So here's my Manga Plan that I may or may not follow!
Favorite OPs and EDs (Be aware it takes a bit of time to load, sometimes it'll outright freeze)
Edit 2023: I decided to scrap the 'Plan to Watch' list as it usually takes up a large space of my progress bar, you can still look at all the mess in my A-P but basically this is to tidy up the profile, have the shows I prioritize seeing in 'Watching' and counting episodes watched.
Edit 2024: I decided to clean my profile again, this time the 'Plan to Watch' is much smaller and manageable as is the 'Watching' section, if there's a show on dropped it doesn't immediately mean I won't pick it up again though it's on the far end of my priority list, at least with the series in 'On-Hold' it means it piqued my interest one time, though now that I got back into reading more manga that'll be my focus.
It's a very entertaining manga. With Jojo it's always hard to stop reading/watching because of all the shenanigans, you just have to open the next chapter to see what happens next. Can't say it deserves # 2 spot, not a masterpiece, but solid. Scary Monsters and True Man World are my favorite arcs so far. Diego is one of the reasons I am reading it in the first place :''D him and Valentine. Came back to this manga after all the Trump memes.
So far Part 7 a little bit better than Part 8, which is also good (put it on pause). Can't get into Part 9 at all, read all of the chapters. You really should read 7-8, I don't think adaptation will come anytime soon.
Yea don't see English translation just yet, but 1st ch is... promising. Plus great art. But I think after Usogui and Liar Game it all will feel "so-so"
Thanks for your quick answer. Perfect so I will binge Part 3 to 5 soon and then I will put the series on hiatus again until it moved on. Hopefully Part 6 is finished by then and let's see how Part 7 goes. Yeah I heard from this Golf Manga. Did you read it? Heard great stuff about it. FKMN is just a great Mangaka in term of art and mind games.
Hello, when I look at your favorite, it seems like you like gambling and mind games manga/anime. Since it been ages ago that I read Part 1 and 2 from Kaiji, I want to ask can I just re-start the series and where should I pause? I heard that part 3 to 5 (or 6?) is all at the same day/night? Or should I wait until the 6th part is done? Whenever this should happen...

Perfectionism is a double-edged sword... I'll watch the movie when it's avaliable, so far it looks wonderful
