Friend Request Policy:
I'm open to friend requests. However, before you send one, please leave me a comment or PM so we can chat first. I've gotten friend requests on MAL before. But I never felt comfortable accepting them because they came from random users I didn't know without explanation. (The two friends I have here are people I'm already close to in real life.) I'm more than happy to converse with fellow anime and manga nerds. But I need to know why you want to be friends. It's a safety thing for me. I hope you understand.

Thank you for providing a huge feedback. I expected it'd take you some time to watch everything as "My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU" alone is 3 seasons long + OVAs, I personally have so many debts from ongoings now that I'm not sure I'll be able to finish everything by the next anime season (-_-").
Can't agree more about "Tamako Love Story", it's definitely a "flagship" of the franchise and the climax of the whole story. "Tamako Market" is still good but after I watched the film I changed my view on the story from being "casual nonsense comedy" to a life lesson that you can't be stuck in time and one day or another the world around you will change, and you'll have to face with changes and make a life-changing decision.
Speaking of changes in life, I guess what you felt when Gama Gama closed in "Aquatope on White Sand" can be described as a relief that Kukuru can finally move forward after this painful but helping push. I think it's a good example of situation where person either becomes hopeless and thinks "glass of water is half empty", or realizes that "glass of water is half full" and moves forward with big changes. For me this anime feels also realistic, especially I think ocean life looks great, creating amazing atmosphere.
I personally had rather bad experience with "My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU" but I thought it might be better for you. The reason for that is because at first I associated Hachiman with myself (classic "literally me" moment), but then he started changing so for me every next episode was worse and worse because I was concentrating on him most of the time and didn't value other characters that much. Ending is good though, can't deny that. My hope was that you won't have that kind of connection with the main character and fully enjoy the anime, and I guess it paid off a bit but you still didn't enjoy it as much as other recommendations, sorry for that.
Your feedback was a very good source of information for me, thanks to you next time I will have better picks and more confidence in personalized recommendations. Have a good day! :-)
I am writing to tell you that I finished the entire fruits basket franchise ๐
It was an impactful journey filled with heartwarming,sad and cathartic moments. I wouldn't go as far as to categorise it a 10/10 masterpiece, but it's definitely a must watch for anime fans. I think its quotes are the most powerful, even among anime series that stand higher from it,in terms of quality and popularity. I am glad I gave it a watch and was able to appreciate its beauty ๐งบ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐.......๐โค๏ธ
I'm glad you liked all 3 recommendations so far. Tamako Market was really the last option I added in hope you would watch it, turns out I should've been more confident about this choice. I would like to see your thoughts after finishing them, looking forward to your reply :-)
Happy New Year! <3
