Anime is a bastard that takes up all my time....... damn straight.
Profile pic is Tetsugaka Letra, love it to pieces.
Welcome To My Profile You Randos
Pretty much a nobody in this world (cyber or reality) so lets make friends, mentally insane and has a weird disability of remembering names, like Alzheimers for the socially awkward. Real life superpower is eternal invisibility, call me John Cena. I like to judge shows and people's tastes, you can call me a critic for my amusement. Compliments makes me embarrassed and gleeful at the same time, which makes me want to smack them, well kind of makes me part tsundere. Have soft spots for good ships. Generally the nice guy, don't mind to pull a few hairs though. Pretty low maintenance, ya know conservation of energy, don't do stuff if you don't have to and if so do it quick. Hey wait why am I wasting time writing this...
I'm pretty easy to impressed as long as the show remains engaging in the way of animation, story or characters
1. Art & Animation- A very impoertant factor definitely affects my enjoyment of the series, sometimes I could love mediocre shows based on animation alone. Action oriented shows get a direct pass if the animation along with fight choreography is not on par. The presentation is the frame to contain the story and how you see it move. Cinematography can portray emotions to create an added dimension towards the show, an adequate example: neon genesis evangelion or any new kyoani production.
2. Story- I like i when the story's plot and characters go hand to hand. If the story elements are clever and well thought out throughout the show, it gets a hefty praise. Stories can be simple, but how they integrate each piece together can make or break a show. Of course to have a decent story is to have decent conflict or motivation to move the story. Stories don't have to follow a strict plot progression as long as there are things happening with thematic correlation also maybe a touch of creativity or interesting elements.
3. Characters- Probably the most important aspect of a show, it affects a shows ability to tell its story concisely as they are the portals through the story. My personal view on a good character is that 1) they are complex with flaws that drive the themes of the story 2) have traits or personality that is engaging but not stagnant 3) or they are very funny then they are off the hook.
Scores
It's pretty random so if your show scores lower than you intended 1) don't be so butthurt I can like what I like 2) eh I don't really have a distinct scoring system and some shows I don't like are ranked equal as others that are better imo. So my average if I like the show is a 7 anything above below is all a scattershot. I'm pretty lenient anyways
Since you are participating in the PRC over at the Anime Guild and have seen quite a number of seasonal anime, I wanted to invite you to take part in the guild's annual Anime Trivia Challenge in case the notification bugged out. It's basically a series of rounds that test your knowledge of the anime that have aired in the year. In contrast to previous years, participants would need to sign up in the sign-up thread in advance, so if you are interested in participating you may head over to https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1684592 to sign up/find out more :)
If you have any questions, feel free to message me.
Cheers!
Greetings Kyon,

Hana to Kishi is a decent shoujo manga. I'm a huge fan of Line Webtoons though. http://www.webtoons.com/en/ unTouchable, Cheese in the Trap, Ecstasy Hearts, Girls of the Wilds, and I personally don't like Orange Marmalade but that's wildly popular on there too. It has a lot of other great dramas that aren't as overtly romance.
Hello, and thanks for reading the second edition of the Anime Guild's Newsletter!
We are proud to announce that we’ve introduced several new features to our line-up of great activities =).
Our first new feature is our Seasonal Opening Competition. We at the Anime Guild provide a great assortment of Seasonal Activities and we believe that this will be a great addition to the line-up. So if you’re a huge fan of openings make sure you pay attention to the rest of our tournament -.^.
Secondly we are attempting to incorporate more Manga to our club with our Weekly Manga Discussion. Where you members vote upon what manga to read for the week and then can discuss that with other members of the club.
Lastly we have something a little different in our Seasonal Power Rankings where we take a group of people AND SHOVE THEM INTO A STEEL CAGE TO FIGHT IT OUT! Nah seems too violent if you ask me. We’ve set up a power ranking committee that will come together and discuss which x-amount of anime to watch per season and rank them from 1 to 10-15 every 3 weeks during the course of that season. Please enjoy our masochism =p. Second Edition should be posted on May 18th.
We are now halfway through the Spring 2015 Season and our Seasonal Discussion continues to grow as one of the more popular activities in the club. Please join the discussion if you want to journey with us to the climaxes of the various shows =O.
Salutations from your friends at the Anime Guild!
