I started watching anime not labelled Pokemon/Yugioh at around 2012 to 2014, and I have been pretty much nonstop for the most part ever since.
I sometime write seasonal reviews, but with the current handling of reviews on this site in general, I won’t write one unless I feel the unbearably strong need to discuss a particular series.
Btw, feel free to talk to me. I’ll accept any friend request, but it’d be nice to talk about a few things every now and then, as I don’t usually initiate a conversation. Of course, be respectful and considerate about my opinions possibly differing from yours.
“I was the last one left back then, and that’s how it’s always been till now. That’s why I have to take them with me. I’ll take everyone who fought and died alongside me to my final destination.”

“Just because you're doing something for someone else doesn't make it right. Kindness and beauty can sometimes be cruel."

“People have very complex and sensitive emotions. Not everyone can express how they truly feel. They end up contradicting themselves or lying.”
-Violet Evergarden
"Do you value your life? Do you think that your family and friends are important to you? If they are, then you should never think of changing yourself. Otherwise, you will lose everything that is precious to you."
-Homura Akemi
"You fought to the end. You survived. That's why you're here now. I think that's something you should be more proud of."

BTW, I have a YouTube reaction channel. Feel free to follow and subscribe if you like, please!
P.S. These are not my own videos, but I found them very helpful and well thought out in terms of analysis on some of my favorites.
Random Hot Take: The criticism for Madoka Magica Rebellion is more unjustified than not. Its divisiveness and compelling, daring twists were actually what made it a masterclass anime film in the first place, if not THE best.
OCCUPATION: Self-employed seasonal anime gem finder. I aspire to find at least one or two really good shows from recent seasons, regardless of the doubts in the current state of the anime medium by a bunch of pessimists on this site I know too well.
KEEP IN MIND that it doesn't mean I give generous scores that easily and that often. There are series I still enjoy a lot but still rate very low due to flaws I can't ignore or aspects I highly dislike. My mean score is pretty damn low mainly due to rating certain OVAs, specials, or some other shows that never saw the greenlight for high production value, as well as having seen a majority of, if not all, of what the anime medium has had to offer. I’m admittedly critical to a fault, but I genuinely endeavor to have fun with even bad shows, which means I still love this medium of fiction.
My Favorites in terms of anime need two or more of these qualifications:
1. At least have a score of 9 or 10 by me.
2. Attained at least above average in terms of enjoyment levels.
3. Have at least one or two prominent characters I really like or love.

Your friendly neighborhood “unconventional elitist".........DESU.
Thanks for accepting the friend request! Can't say I agree with everything, but to be fair I haven't seen the massive amount of anime you have. I've been interested in reviews and analysis of different types of media for a while now, so I appreciate and respect the amount of effort you've put into your reviews.
hello... may i ask for help.. actually i'm hmm if i want to say it "rabbit-hearted?" I can't watch anything scary,horror or etc.. but actually I'm interested in that theme. What's more, most anime nowadays have that, right?
now.. I'm having a hard time finding anime that I can watch.I'm afraid that if it goes on like this I won't be able to watch anything other than maybe slice of life.. and it will be really boring..and sad..(I don't want to stop liking anime.)
I want to learn to be braver I see you've watched a lot of anime. maybe you can give anime recommendations that can slowly (starting from the lowest level...). make me like genres like that....
I've tried to find it myself.. but I always fail to enjoy it.. the level of scaryness is too high. so I think I need help from an expert... please...
Hey, nice to hear from you! As per my norm, it's taken me over a month to respond to your last comment lol. Just want to say that I love that Homura image on your forum picture. Good stuff.
I log on today for the first time in weeks and learn that the Mal review system had died XD. Ok, that's an overreaction, but it's still a weird and unnecessary change imo. What do you think about it?
Oh, and I hope the covid19 situation in your area has gotten better since your last comment.

Yes Saber Marionette in particular does feel like that.
