KIRA KIRA KILLER, LUCKY LUCKY LUCKY, MIRAI WA HORA HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY!
...oh crap, didn't see you there. Hi! I'm Tin, also known online as ShadowMonkey, oni_no_onii_chan and....Radioactive...C*nt-*AKHEM* Anyways I've been watching anime and playing Japanese games ever since I was a little donkleberry, but it was around the age of 10 that I started actively picking anime to watch and got myself into the community. 7 years later I'm pretty happy where I stand with my list and I think my taste has evolved quite a bit during my years of watching anime. I'm open to any genre, but most of all I love sci-fi, mecha, psychological, adventure, and comedy. What can I say, I like big-ass robots and coming-of-age stories, mang. I guess, apart from ecchi and hentai, I care the least about stuff like RPG fantasy and isekai. But as I said, I'm open to anything and even among those I'll find series and things to like and enjoy. I tend to prefer cel animation and older anime in general. I find myself nostalgic about the past as well as melancholic that I'll never get a chance to experience the times before I was born way more than enjoying the present and/or looking forward to the future, so naturally, I'll find myself way more enthusiastic about older stuff than the newer stuff, most of the time at least. I'm not often drawn to dark/depressing stories, and when I am it's usually stuff with an optimistic outlook and/or positive outcome, unless I think the darkness is really well done...which is often the case but still, there's edgy stuff out there I adore bizarre psychological/dementia sh*t, as well as unconventional and experimental animation and storytelling. Huge animation nut. The type of nerd that watches sakuga MADs for hours and researches which animator did which scene of a show. I am proud shounen and idol trash. I tend to prefer complex dialogue over flashy battles, but I like both. I guess my favorite setting is a post-apocalyptic or dystopian sci-fi world type of thing and my least favorite an RPG-inspired medieval-like world, but I'll appreciate good worldbuilding no matter what the setting is. I have a guilty pleasure for murder elimination/battle royale stories. I also adore coming-of-age stories with a "boy/girl meets creature/robot/alien/whatever" premise. Heck, I love Digimon and my favorite movie is Bumblebee. As for slice of life anime/manga, I mostly prefer deep seinen over iyashikei, but I love both. I like my slice of life stuff with both comedy and drama. My favorite video game of all time is NieR:Automata, but my favorite gaming franchises are Sonic the Hedgehog (Dreamcast>Modern>Classic), Shenmue, Ape Escape, Klonoa, Yakuza, King of Fighters, and Tekken. My favorite Japanese bands are the pillows and Sambomaster, my favorite non-Japanese bands are Streetlight Manifesto, Pixies, and Kero Kero Bonito, while my favorite albums are In the Aeroplane Over the Sea by Neutral Milk Hotel and Knife Man by Andrew Jackson Jihad. I follow a bunch of Western comedians and their podcasts, but I adore Japanese comedy as well. If I had to pick a single favorite comedy series, I'd go for either Arakawa Under the Bridge or Dr. Slump Not the biggest horror junkie, but when I do watch/read some it has to be cleverly written and psychologically challenging rather than just spooky for the heck of it. An example of my type of horror is Hyouryuu Kyoushitsu. I'll take romance over ecchi/hentai any day. I'm a demisexual and find sex and sexual stuff in general either gross or just don't have any emotions towards it, even in real life p0rn thingies, so when it's getting shoved in my face in media you can imagine I won't really enjoy it (part of the reason I enjoy a smaller percentage of Western media). I'll much rather just look at cuties and feel all fuzzy and fluffy rather than...you know, watch them getting...screeeeewed....WAIFUS MAKE MY HEART WARM AND NOT MY PEEPEE HARD! OKAY MOVING ON THIS INTRODUCTION IS STARTING TO GO DOWN THE SH*TTER Anime that are left dropped at -/? scored - are shows I watched as a kid on TV or something. SCORING SYSTEM Please consider that the reason I give such high scores is that I rate subjectively and always look for the best in everything I consume, as much as I can. That being said, I do have a critical mindset it's just that I'm not a very strict person. I start anime optimistically and try to stay that way for as long as I can throughout watching them. However, if an anime has problems (that bother me personally), I'll notice them (mostly sensitive to crappy visuals, unnecessary sex, and unironically edgy stories and plot-twists). I use my scores exclusively as a means of getting across how much I liked the thing. If you want my further opinions on a series, by all means comment on my profile or PM me :D I remove myself from cynicism and negativity as much as possible. I don't look at community scores or reviews at all before starting something. I give everything an equal chance, without any kind of bias or prejudice, really focus on and try to appreciate every aspect (that's worth appreciating) of whatever I'm watching/reading, and approach everything subjectively and personally, without any kind of influence from any individual (friend or stranger) or the public opinion. That's part of the reason you'll frequently find my opinions differing greatly from those of the often closed-minded majority. Basically, my philosophy is to make the most out of everything I consume and not to try and play critic per se, but to completely realize and communicate to myself (and then gladly to others as well) all of my personal likes and dislikes regarding a series, instead of being exclusively "objective", flaunting my taste, and building a superiority complex or whatever people like doing these days. Also, I am particularly perplexed by people who call my (or anyone else's) need to add everything tied to a franchise and/or shorts/animations to my list "list-padding". I tend to be very passionate about every piece of media I experience and not adding a single one would be illogical and false to me. As a completionist, I have a need to see everything related to a franchise, even specials and CMs, and as an animation nut and connoisseur of abstract media, I like to pursue the shorts, animations, and music videos that dwell at the bottom of MAL's database. Just because you're not passionate about those things, doesn't mean that anyone's consuming/adding them has the sole purpose of "padding" :) 10 - genuinely enjoyed the whole anime/manga and there's nothing that bugged me with it (to be a 10 it also has to blow me away...either by just being really awesome or making me feel connected to it on a personal level) 9 - enjoyed it a lot, didn't necessarily have problems but it didn't blow me away either (my go-to score I usually give to the ones I really liked) 8 - liked it as a whole, but I either had more than a few problems with it that I didn't manage to forget/forgive by the end or it just simply wasn't captivating enough to get a 9 7-5 - ehhh (more extreme versions of 8, leaning more on the unforgettable problems/less entertaining side than the "liked it" one) 4-1 - didn't like it I write reviews only if I have something to say about every aspect of the anime/manga. I'll usually leave "mini-reviews" in the tags for anime/manga I don't write a review for although more often than not I'll forget to do so. Oh, and also, don't take my scores for things I'm currently watching/reading too seriously. I'll usually gather all my opinions after completing. MUSIC CORNER Favorite video games: Favorite anime from 2017 (no sequels, no particular order after first): Favorite anime from 2016 (no sequels, no particular order after first): (these are from back when I watched seasonals and I can't bring myself to delete them uwu) Things I adore: Things I can't stand: Now that you know stuff about me...probably way more than necessary, don't hesitate to talk me about anything and everything (~‾∇‾)~ I accept all requests, even if you're a spambot. However, if you ever try to do anything bad to me, Yotsugi-chan will come, squash you and protecc her onii-chan...yay. Those are her words not mine  Profile views as of 18 Sep 2016: |

Usput, ti bi moga pogledat Natsume Yuujinchou ima elemenata koji bi ti se mogli svidit :)
found it a bit hard to get into and too slow at times, but apart from that it was nice and had nice moments^^
i liked the other movie more though xD
https://mangapark.net/ is this the right one?
It felt great turning 16, but then my father still treated me like a child and gave me zero independence, that I hoped for receiving when I was of that age, so I'll feel exactly the same being 18... and still being unable to even do things with friends such as visiting them or calling them, or buy my own items and food without "parent's permission" and them being excessively nosey about my life. It has not gotten better so far, and all I know is that I am getting more and more neglect in every form from my father.
Venting aside, I really couldn't do an online school. I have never been allowed to call friends, so being taught in that way will be borderline impossible for me.
It's good that you can talk to others during that. I can't even text a hello to my class without getting paranoid.
Technically, I'm also the only sibling that isn't allowed any privacy whatsoever. Everything I type online that he doesn't see, he gets angry at and assumes things, and now this stupid quarantine has made it nigh impossible to visit my mother even once. My sisters grew up with my mother whilst I did not, so they got spoiled, fed well, and respected a heck of a lot more. The ironic thing is, is that my mother is jobless, and somehow, in some world, she's able to give us pricey food (once in a blue moon if I have the chance to see her). My sisters are also allowed to talk to people and invite their friends with no need for permission, etc.. I don't know how to feel.
I won't go on, but there are so many reasons to how my parents have stumped my communication skills and forced me into certain categories along the way. I won't mention anything about my primary school years for now.
You're very lucky.
I've had to write one dissertation alongside two other lengthy projects for this entire month, it has burned me out. I only have one left to do, but my motivation has slumped.
My mother was actually planning on buying me a fancy cake and taking me to an aquarium, and especially Italy (All of which I've wanted to experience for years, and only someone like her would provide that. Mind you, it's my 18th, so she wanted to do something really nice for me... like a mother should). That won't happen anymore... It's as if I only have a voice when I'm around her, but then again, visiting her is so uncommon.
I like venting a lot. There's a whole lot more pent up and I could write a frigging novel with only the main factors. I'm sorry about that.
What about my other comment? Don't forget about it oof.
How are you doing? Planning anything special for your 18th?
There's an arc where the men turn into women and even they're godly
