About Me
Hello! Thanks for visiting my profile, my name is Lucas and I've been an active anime fan for the past 2 years now. For as long as I can remember I started off watching titles such as
Pokémon and
Deltora Quest and vampire knight on ABC3 during my childhood. I then later discovered a handful of StudioGhibli Films during Japanese classes in primary school, specifically
Ponyo and
My Neighbour Totoro. In 2013/14(I think?) I returned to watching a few anime and discovered
Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica while it was airing on TV, I was super hooked on it and would watch it every time it premiered, It’s safe to say this series is an all time favourite. In 2015 I believe I was introduced to the wonderful world of streaming and competed the first half of
Gosick. I then returned during late 2017 and got introduced to the site MyAnimeList, this was when I REALLY started to watch heaps of anime and basically became obsessed, bingeing series like
Kill la Kill, and
The Future Diary to name a few. Now 2018 has hit and I am still just as active watching a few episodes of anime per week whenever I can cram time in. I don’t tend to watch much seasonal anime anymore due to them being heavily saturated recently. A few may catch my eye but nothing more unless I get heaps of recommendations for that title. At the moment I’m currently trying to finish older series that I still haven’t watched.
If you’d like to send me a friend request please feel free to strike up a conversation first; I enjoy talking to people. I also enjoy watching terrible anime, knowing full well that what I am watching is terrible. I find it fun (most of the time) to sit and laugh while pointing out the flaws in a bad show and watching awful shows just makes me appreciate the good ones more. The only time I'll ever drop a show is if I find that show to be boring, so being bad isn't necessarily a game breaker for me, so long as I can derive some pleasure from it.
How I rank Anime:
10 (Masterpiece): A must see. Close to perfect, and deserving of several rewatches. The best of the best.
9 (Great): Highly recommended. Might have some minor issues, but still well worth your time.
8 (Very Good): Recommended. Genre enthusiasts should definitely watch.
7 (Good): Has some flaws, but still enjoyable. Check it out if the premise sounds fun to you!
6 (Fine): Mediocre, but almost good. Might be worth your time if you really like the genre, but there's better shows out there...
5 (Average): Meh. Mediocre, but almost bad. Probably a snooze fest.
4 (Bad): Not the worst thing ever, but not worth watching either. Might at least be funny in a so bad it's good way.
3 (Very Bad): Awful. Might have 1 or 2 merits that keep it from being a complete failure, don’t waste your time.
2 (Horrible): Almost painful to watch. Not even so bad it's funny.
1 (Appalling): An absolute trainwreck. Everything that could have gone wrong in an anime did. Avoid at all cost like your life depends on it. Eek

None of my friends buy manga like that and the only one who did has moved away since so I don't get to swap haha
Not watching much of the same stuff at all lol, just Darling in the Franxx - how are you enjoying it?
I totally understand the school schedule though, I've got an assignment due next friday that's 2000 words and I haven't even picked my topic yet ;-;
Watching much seasonal stuff atm?
I've found a few good shows this season but I don't think there are as many quality shows coming out each season as when I started watching in 2014. (who knows though, might have some strange nostalgia goggles on)
But yeah, I've been enjoying Hinamatsuri, Darling in the Franxx and S2 of Saiki Kusuo no Ψ-nan.
I noticed your manga list is pretty bare; do you not read much or have not put everything on your list yet?
I'd totally recommend Grand Blue as a manga (even though I only read the whole thing yesterday) its really good!
