I started getting into anime and manga in the Spring of 2013. The first anime I watched, High School of the Dead, at the recommendation of my college roommate, I ended up watching in one sitting -- up until the wee hours of the morning. When he woke up, I had just finished the last episode and was preparing to go to school. Looking back, it was not that that series in particular was brilliant -- in fact I watched it with some poor quality English dubs on Netflix and have watched anime that I have enjoyed a lot better since. Yet, it served as a gateway for my interest in anime and manga.
I'm a guy who loves literature, otaku stuff and writing. I do each of these as much as my schedule allows me. My favourite genre is Slice of Life. Non Non Biyori and Nichijou will remain very dear to me. I feel a bit sad every time I think about not being able to watch these with the joy of one watching it for the first time ever again. If anyone has recommendations for some nice SOL's, I'd be very happy to receive them. I like to laugh.
Something about this medium just keeps pulling me back. I can't quite put it into words, but I found a community of people who loved it too and wanted to discuss it with me. I think that, more than anything, made the experience so magical. If anyone wants to be friends with me, just drop me a request. I like discussing shows and chapters a lot. I would like to do it in a place other than the nefarious /a/.
As for the future: I've spent about 8,000 hours on anime and manga. I'd like to see that reach 10,000 -- just for giggles.
EDIT: I've crossed 10,000. Oh boy, where do we go from here? I can barely recognize this stuff I wrote 8 years ago.

I haven't used reddit in years, but I do use discord. I'd be down to exchange information if u don't mind.
Muzan was born into a noble family and was always very sickly, meaning he probably always had people doting on him as a child which would lead to his narcissism as an adult. So just show that. Muzan also has the world view that everyone that's nice to him is good and everyone that's mean to him is evil. We can see this with him calling the demon slayers a group of demons and thinking that yorichi is the monster, not him. So show why he believes that. Show a scene where he gets mistreated by other kids or by a caregiver and one of his parents steps in, scolds them, and says something along the lines of "I can't understand why anybody would ever be mean to you Muzan, you're so sickly/ a noble/ etc".
Muzan had no problem killing the doctor or eating people. So show a scene where someone has died and he's the only one not sad, he's just a cold emotionless child that never developed empathy or understood why death was a tragedy. Show a scene where he comes across a body as a child and is unfazed. Just show some reasons for why he is the way he is. Just show the type of child that was able to grow up into the demon king. In the databook it said that he was such a monster that he drove 5 of his wives into killing themselves. So SHOW it. Show his interactions with his wives and how he was even able to do that, show how even before living past his lifespan he already saw others as tools to fulfill his wants. It would explain why he treats his demons the way he does.
Muzan didn't need some tragic past that explains why he is such a killer or what drove him to kill others. He doesn't have to be an anti-villian. Just for the love god show why he is the way he is. Otherwise he doesn't come as a character and more just as a representation for evil.
madara is a wayyy better villain lmao dont compare him with muzan... n yh even i felt like the last arc was kinda boring, kaguya is another example of a bad villain lol
also ur right naruto was the reason i started watching anime XD n i was planning to Nichijou this week :D
anyways let's say that he got that cure, what's he gonna do after that? kill all humans? if that's the case why?
the author literally can start a sequel to demon slayer if he wanted to, some1 can get/make the medicine that turns humans into demons...point is I feel like the back story to muzan is weird, the author really shud hv thought of sumthing else than a frickin medicine cuz medicines can be re-created even if the recipe or whatever has been lost for hundreds of years...
all characters in demon slayer is super bland....
typical mc n side characters, no thought has been given fr most demon slayers characters other than some tragic backstory
demon slayer is a mediocre anime with really good animation n stuff but just becuz it's mediocre doesn't mean i didn't enjoy the anime tho :) t just lacks so much other stuff which makes an anime a masterpiece
sorry if my grammar is messed 😅
