You probably check this as often as I do, which is next to never, but if you see this, I am curious. Would you say that your top 20 list of anime has changed at all, as the years have gone by, or does it remain the same?

I actually liked watching Tower of God; it was a treat for the eyes. My brain just struggled to keep up with or even find the plot. I kept thinking I had missed something! It's not a fun feeling. But I love a good overpowered shonen fantasy. Just need to be able to keep up, and I'm a firm believer that an adaptation should be able to stand alone. I like having the option to go check the source material, but I don't like being forced to. Not sure I'm making sense at this point.

I overdid it this season! It'd be easier to say what I'm not watching at this point. I doubt I'll keep up to date with all of them, but that's okay. Some shows you need to see right away, but others are nice to build up so you can marathon. Got any standouts, or ones you've already dropped or are going to?

I'd heard they did not adapt GoHS well. Apparently source material fans said the same thing about Tower of God. *shrugs* I did like the fight scenes in God of High School though, so it wasn't a total loss. My bar's a little lower this year overall with little on regular television. I'm watching a lot more anime than I usually would.

Oof, Journey of Elaina is rough. She almost not even amoral, just, I don't know. Like they were aiming for neutral and she's just awful. I'm too far in to give it up now, but I may knock down the score a bit to even it out.

Yes, even if it's no longer that easy to update after the apps stopped working years ago, still I persist. Plus, it's where I met my husband, so I'm always going to be weirdly and unnecessarily faithful to this place. Meanwhile, he's moved on to AniDB. XD

Sorry about the anxiety. Do you see someone for it? I'm pretty much low key anxious about this world I brought three humans into all day long, so that's fun. But anime's my retreat from all of that, so I'm not going dwell too much here.

I'm drawing a blank on "fun" right now, I watch too many serious shows. It's hard to find a good comedy since it's so subjective to each person. I am liking Jujutsu Kaisen a lot, but I think I was unreasonably cautious after the hot mess that was God of High School. Maybe it's a source material thing. You watching anything you like, or have anything on your radar for winter or spring 2021?

Hi!! It's going, well, about as well as can be expected from 2020. And yeah, I'll probably use this site until it's gone. I don't do change well. XD

How are you?

gundam the best

If you're looking for more like Shingeki Genesis, I recommend Tiger and Bunny, Lupin III series and Soredemo Sekai. :D

Aw, I kinda like Black Bullet, even though it's not exactly bringing anything new to the plate. I see some potential there, but I've been burned before.

I am so ridiculously happy about Fairy Tail. The rest I'm having fun with, except maybe Mekakucity Actors. It feels like we're in for a whole bunch of introductory episodes, and I don't think think it's longer than one cour, so meh. But you know how stubborn I am, a show has to be pretty damn terrible for me to drop. It may take me six or seven years, but I'll get there eventually (lol).

I've actually been working on my backlog a bit this year. It was easier last season when there was practically nothing worth watching (imo, of course), but I'm still finishing a good three or four shows a month from my on hold/to watch list. It helps that so much is available streaming these days. I'm also trying to find balance between all my hobbies, instead of my usual obsessed with one thing at a time style. I feel like I wasn't retaining anything doing it my usual way, so what was the point, you know? Argumentatively, some shows aren't worth remembering, but I should still be able to remember a basic plot. I look over my completed list sometimes and have no idea what some of them are (MAL's insistence on all Japanese titles no matter what may be a small reason).

Sage! We should talk more. Even though I'm pretty sure you're crazy busy right now. No pressure.

Any strong yays or nays for the spring season yet? Although I'm already watching way too much. It feels like the old days again. :) I'm in my thirties now, I can say things like that.

hey buddy your prayers will be heard ...just wait patiently for some time... togashi got some huge kick-ass plans for gon...and i mean it

Ha ha, the dub, but it has nothing to do with that. For one, his dub voice isn't so bad, for two, I keep track of things the dub is cutting/removing/etc.

Jack I like. He's not my favorite or anything, but he seems to be redeeming himself.

I love Fairy Tail. I know it's trope-ridden and I can guess what's coming miles away, but I adore the goofiness. It's just so...fun. Too many other shounen titles take themselves too seriously. It's not a bad thing, but Fairy Tail's just so refreshing to me.

Hmm, 5D's.

It's hard to say, since I have watched it in a really long time and only recently picked it up again.

My only thought at the moment is I don't like Crow. >.>

Well, tons, as I've been trying to finish off my formerly huge list. And it was difficult, considering I was a good 12-20 episodes behind on everything. Hey, sometimes I have a mini-burnout, you know?

So there really hasn't been much I've been watching consistently, so not a lot sticks out in my mind--the danger of both marathoning and finishing off 20~ series in one month. Durarara!! is probably the only winter anime I truly love, but Baka to Test did surprise by being a lot more fun than the original premise entailed. Kimi ni Todoke was my favorite from the fall...it was very honest for shoujo.

And what have you been watching?

Thanks! I know; I actually looked you up to see if you were on fb before asking.

I'll go ahead and send the request. :)

Hey, do you mind if I friend you on facebook?

That way, we can keep up with life there, and leave here for anime/manga. Then my response time might improve.

Just a thought.
