I like 90s and 2000s anime films, experimental styles, non-cliche dialogue, and gritty, mature stories and aesthetics. Not a big moe fan, with a couple of exceptions. Also not a fan of most battle shounen, light novel anime, romcoms, or anything with a "typical" anime style and feeling. Main exception being a show that is efficient and doesn't waste time about appealing to horny fantasies, which I appreciate and respect a lot more than shows that throw that stuff in there as an afterthought. Not trying to sound pretentious or judge anyone- just my personal taste.

Top 5 non-anime films:

1. Blade Runner 2049
2. Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring
3. The Shawshank Redemption
4. Jagten
5. Incendies

Top 5 non-anime TV shows:

1. Community
2. Breaking Bad
3. The Americans
4. Better Call Saul
5. Scrubs

Top 5 novels/book series:

1. The First Law series
2. The Wheel of Time
3. The Red Rising series
4. Project Hail Mary
5. A Wizard of Earthsea

oh hey! yeah, I found him around the time he was reading One Piece and Berserk, this whole thing really came out of left field. glad it seems to have wrapped up as quickly as it started, it was rough seeing everyone turn on him instantly

Vxerix Jul 18, 2023 7:35 AM

Thanks, I’ll say the same to you having nice taste yeah our taste in anime is quite similar even though we may disagree with many things but it’s whatever I don’t mind

Yeah go complete monster it is worth it

Doshigatai Jul 18, 2023 2:16 AM

Yes, I love Ghibli and Gainax anime. And thanks for reading my review. As you say, the film is abstract and bizarre, and the public's opinion of it is quite divided, but it is one of my favorites. I hope it will be one of your favorites too! Last but not least, thanks for the friend request!

jkubed Sep 19, 2022 1:48 AM

man, it is so good. Imaishi with freedom from broadcast restrictions is absolutely bonkers. Netflix finally validated its insistence on being a part of the industry. I was pretty skeptical about how Trigger has been taking franchise deals over more original IPs, but the results are solid.

It made me actually install the game. hopefully that won't ruin it lmao

jkubed Jul 9, 2022 3:23 PM

It's been a few months since I was reading it so it's not entirely fresh in my mind, but I was loving it as much as BH for sure. Senya's great, kinda like an Akane 2.0. his relationship with the demon bros is the absolute best, and the fight against the dragon boy whose name escapes me ("I came to play with you."). Ahh and the fist guy that the dragon trains with. But Shinsuke will always be my boy.

I can't get enough of the "mythological legend" sort of tone in a story. it's so damn good.

jkubed Jul 8, 2022 4:17 PM

I'm still waiting on RightStuf to send me Spirit Circle before I read that one, it's been on back order for like 4 months now. Gonna curse myself forever for not finishing Samidare and buying all of it when I had the chance, that shit is never getting reprinted lol.

yeah, considering he waited ten years I can understand the desperation. hope he learns a lesson, dreaming of the anime is better than this.

at least we have CSM anime at some point and Part 2 next week to ease the pain

jkubed Jul 8, 2022 2:54 PM

bro. it's so bad. why is it so orange and brown. where are the panties. not sure I like most of the VAs either. I was willing to forgive the lack of Pillows but they're going too far!

The absolute pity I feel for any anime-onlys. I'm not sure I would even be able to appreciate how well the character development is handled if I first saw it through this.

at least it's getting me back in the mood to finally finish the last few volumes of SY.

I wouldn't really say I didn't mesh with it. Parts of it I loved, namely the character designs and the gorgeous street punk/noir/somewhat gothic atmosphere. IMO it was all bogged down by the focus on Kaneki and his angsty inner conflict, which as far as I can remember, was overly melodramatic and edgy. I really think it would have been great as a series of short arcs focused on the side characters. That was all regarding the original btw, not :re. Won't say anything about it cos you haven't finished it yet though.

qvvd May 7, 2022 3:25 PM

Yo been a long time, apologies for the late reply, good to see you're well. As for what I think of it... pretty hard to sum up lol. Me personally, it made a strong impression right from the Makima introduction scene, she has some crazy presence. The rest of the cast are just as colourful and those small over the top things that you just don't expect (like the barf scene LOL) really combine to make it super addictive. Completely unhinged and it feels 100% natural. That vibe is one of a kind. I just finished volume 3 and more shit's going down, pretty impressive how it keeps on upping the madness.

Also idk if it's just me but the setting and art give strong tokyo ghoul vibes, although the tone is quite different.

jkubed Jan 30, 2022 12:48 PM

yooo it took me three tries to read through Biscuit Hammer, but I finally finished. the themes and power/character progression all across the board were incredibly well done. I'm sold on Mizukami forever, and the fact that this isn't universally considered his definitive magnum opus has me excited to read the other contenders

I had never heard that the hope was a classic Gainax anime with the Pillows until now, so reading it fresh off of a FLCL rewatch with the OST on loop made it totally click (esp saw parallels with Eva/FLCL/TTGL).

feel any hope for the anime? I'm worried given the director and suddenness of the airing, but if it at least nails the atmosphere and emotional moments I could consider forgiving a lack of sakuga in the crazy fights

Happy belated birthday!

Azizdy Oct 11, 2021 7:31 PM

I've been doing great! Just got into University and even moved out recently as well. Things are at least going good in that department.

I've been rewatching some anime too, actually just finished up a rewatch of Fate Zero, which went great for me! What have you been getting into lately?

Azizdy Oct 7, 2021 8:47 PM

Hey, Scenery! How have you been doing man? Its been a while since we last talked, and I wanted to come by and check if you were doing alright.

JRads47 Apr 7, 2021 8:11 PM

"Damn that's too bad, I hope that the anime can improve them somehow."

Manwagy2020 Mar 16, 2021 5:16 PM

Hey man thanks for the accept :)

I actually dont know how i stumbled across you, i was doing a deep wiki type dive on the MAL and browsing loads of profiles and managed to come across yours. You had a pretty cool profile with similar tastes to mine.
