My anime tastes are fairly broad. I tend to prefer Shounen, Seinen, psychological, mystery and comedy but I'm more than happy to watch drama, romance, echii etc. if the show resonates with me. I'm generally not a huge fan of drama for the sake of drama, pure romance and pure tragedies but even then there are exceptions.
I've written brief comments on most of the series in my watchlist if you wanna know what I think about a specific series (although given that most of them were written multiple years after viewing they are likely to be biased. Also keep in mind I don't always have a lot to say about individual seasons so you will find a lot of the latter seasons of a show blank ).
A little note on my recommendations. I've tried to give proper justifications that are possible for you "to weigh" when contemplating whether you wanna watch what I'm recommending (e.g. if I say show B has more drama you can reflect on whether that's too much drama for you or closer to the level you're looking for). These short descriptions are meant to reflect the type of experience I had with the show and what drove my interest when watching rather than superficial similarities (I can't believe people are basing recommendations on things like the sex of the protagonist or that both shows are set in a school environment -_-). I'm also trying to avoid obvious recommendations that you could probably figure out by yourself. I feel like a good recommendation links shows that are not the necessarily the same but rather can be enjoyed by the same person. If some of the recommendations seem a bit strange to you, that is most likely the reason, or it may be that I'm partially insane.
My rating scale:
10: Basically perfect barring nitpicking. I wouldn't know how to even begin to improve it.
9: Effectively a 10. It may be a 10 that is not exactly aligned with my tastes, or a show that does a lot right but has one glaring flaw.
8: A 7 that is a cut above the rest. 8+ is what I consider a great show almost universally worth watching.
7: Basically a good show. This is my baseline for a show I enjoyed or a show that is basically well made
6: A mediocre show that is a step above average/forgetable(5) or a good show (7-8) that has too many flaws to overlook.
5: Middle of the line average. Barely passable. A show you probably wouldn't rewatch and about the lowest rating I would bear recommending.
4: A show that I would probably tell my past self to skip. A semi-decent show that has one too many flaws and is therefore rendered borderline bad
3: A bad show with some redeeming qualities or a contentious show with some undeniable issues that is a bad match for my tastes
2: A firmly bad show with little to no redeeming qualities
1: A god-awful abomination
Feel free to message me if you wanna discuss something, a recommendation etc.

Well there is a lot of lore in this book of mine haha, with a lot of cultures merged and some basic stuff like vampires even but with a twist.
Probably in two hours I will start drawing something
My story takes place in Hell XD - a girl commits suicide because she thinks that "real life comes after death" - she becomes someone who does missions for Demons in the many floors of Hell and shit happens. There's gore, It is reverse haremish, but mostly because MC Abigail is mad in the head.
Yup, that one Charizard exactly! XDDDD ur story is crazy haha, sounds funny ngl. In my Pokemon world, some Pokemon turn into humans while feeling really strong emotions [also in the past people married Pokemon] [that's actually canon pokemon lore] , so it just turns into reverse haremXD
haha I was in college for a year and there were a few classes, right now I'm on a break I guess [need to start looking for a job] [I don't really wannaXDDDD] then I'm going back to studying I guess - mostly to get rent XD
Physics, yup I admire people who study things like this, cuz damn I'm so bad at math XDDD
haha i actually wrote a book once - over 300 pages - a year later I decided to rewrite it and now It sits at 100 pages - and It's stuck, gonna come back to it someday. But yeah it's in polish XD
Also my Pokemon human [husbando] versions are also part of my own Pokemon Universe, so yeah I tend to think about stuff like this
Yup, from Fate I have at least more than 50 husbandos haha [mostly because of the lore and franchise nearly every guy becomes hot XDDD] my best bois are Merlin, Gilgamesh, Ashiya Douman, Oberon Vortigern, Jason and one NPC Woodwose that I went crazy for haha,
Oh I didn't know about the models XD Interesting.
now Offtopic - next anime I'm going to watch is Nabari no Ou, don't know much about except that is from 2008, made by J.C Staff - I remember putting in on the plan list, cuz the cover has a pretty artstyle XDD [and... yeah the pretty boys on the cover are also [not always!!] eye catching]. I love good stories, but if they also have someone to look at then I'm not going to be mad haha.
Cuz yeah, I also watched few shows when I didn't had a best boi to my collection XD [even though I can find one almost everywhere, even Bocchi the Rock! had one pretty guy, that even got fanart!]
Nazo no Kanojo X is also on my planned list, so somewhere in the future I will watch it XD.
Yup, Overlord is great, "Kaikai Kitan" from JJK is a basic joice, but jesus the visuals and song slaps ngl. Yup HXH is a bop + the opening musicaly didn't change through the whole series so It's iconic. Ah yes the Magi opening is great! and of course Kaiji! Great choices, funny how I seem them all haha
Heritage XDD - well you are right, I guess I also need to make a spot for Gerald in my Husbando Heaven [he's not there unless I play it/watch it/or read itXD] HHAAHAH Angry Birds, I didn't know they were from Finland lmao, the more u know.
Yup, u can send it :DD
I really enjoy when characters have beauty marks, the most common one is under the eyes or lip, but I would love to see more ngl [or at least more freckles and other features in general]. Yup Perky ears are for the win for me too, at the same time I didn't see many characters with other type of ears than the perky ones. There need to be anime with dog people in general!
lmao didn't know that about second season hahah what a chad. Well Kazuma also stands out by just having green eyes. Any other colour than grey, black, brown and sometimes blue works + his more green colour scheme in general. [Most isekai protags have either blue or black]
haha yeah I draw pretty quickly!
... I just realized that I'm not sure how to send a picture here haha
Oh yeah, Ghillenne is great, but I don't think it would happen haha, I like actually like Rudeus cuz he doesn't look bland, he has blonde hair, beauty mark and green eyes? now that's rare for an isekai protagonist!
I also love cat girls, but cat boys are even rarer. The most bland animal eared blond design is Kitsune with long white hair - I have at least 10 of those and I love every one of them - still give me some variety!
Ah I didn't watch Konosuba 3rd Season yet! I didn't watch anything from 2024 either haha - I'm taking a break and watching some older stuff - and in a month or two I'm gonna start with Winter 2024! - when it comes to Konosuba I love the girl designs and colours ngl - Kazuma is fine for a protag, It's his personality that gives him a spot in my [bland isekai husband group haha], I guess Vanir from Konosuba is the only other man that I find pretty from Konosuba.
I already sketched your OC! I you want to see her I can send it to u
I mostly play gacha games like Genshin, Fate GO, Cookie Run Kingdom - when it comes to the games I completed there is the first Hades Game, Omori [It's an amazing story] , Yume Nikki [surreal, needed a wiki to beat itXD] , Nier:Automata, some visual novels but not much [I need to play more] and I also played Sally Face [great story, with bullshit puzzlesXDD].
I read the Baccano novels in english [props to u in reading them in japanese lmao], found a pdf on the net XD. Would love to order them, but they are quite costly for me right now.
I always watch long anime series not chronologically but in the way they came out. I started with the original Fate/Stay Night from 2006 [u don't need to technically watch it] - then I watched Fate/Zero and Stay Night Unlimited Bladeworks [Zero is one of my favorites.] - then I watched the rest like Apocrypha, Extra:Last Encore and the adaptations of Fate GO - Babylonia It's great but I'm kinda mad they didn't adapt the game chronologically so It's all over the place XD - I played the game [gameplay is tedious, story is long and one of my favorites. I'm even up to date right now lmao]
The newest Fate that is going to come out is Fate/Strange Fake and I truly can't wait for the adaptation!
There is a lot Subaru fanarts that show his other versions [from different timelines???] I'm not sure, I didn't read the light novels, but the concept seems interesting. [Like there was some kind of corrupted Subaru lmao] [and well Subaru is not the pinacle of pretty boy, but in these Isekai's something the MC is all I get XDDD] [then well Re:Zero actually has a few of the male characters so that's great!]
I started watching anime, I think also 10 years ago? I'm 21 now, and well - I guess depression? and a lot of free time? Also my pace of watching anime is pretty good [I try to balance it with "normal" movies and tv shows/games but anime is still in the top!]
Hmmm I'm not sure if you've watched Monster - but It's my favorite anime from Naoki Urusawa. Johan Liebert the main antagonist is my favorite character ever - even though he doesn't appear that much in it. The story, secrets, realistic character drama and the main character are something that made me fall in love with Monster!
I also really enjoy Baccano! a shorter series that never got It's full adapation. I actually read the novels and their fantastic. [a shit ton of characters, everyone has something to do, everything is connected. 90'/80' vibe, immortals.] - the anime is special for me mostly of the climate, music and animation. It's a shame the novel is on hiatus for a while now, at least with this novel, as Narite the genius also writes Fate/Strange Fake [I love Fate Francise] and Dead Mount Death Play [also a shit ton of characters and events going on, It's his style] - He also is the author of Durarara! an anime that I would love to rewatch someday!
I also draw things, mostly oc's or some more abstract pieces with the use of photobashing, I guess I put most of them on devianart [yeah the site sucks, I just keep them there for fun. If u wanna check it out, my username is also Szczelajo.
When it comes to Re:Zero I like the concept of dying, resurecting and keeping actual trauma from the ordeal. I enjoy the world and the characters. Isekai Proteganists tend to lean heavily into many tropes, I think that after a while Subaru kinda becomes more himself than a typicall self-insert. I also like when stories have a lot of characters and this one has that, from the men XDD I certantly like Roswaal, Reinhard and Petelguese [his lore is cool] also Otto got some good development. [Subaru has a shit ton of good fanart lmao]
Yeah I don't have many MAL friends, mostly because I just became active XDDD as I decided that maybe I can write something on the topics. [I also like people reacting to the number of anime on my account XD]
I like your avatar [I read in ur profile that u drawed it, It's cool] It reminds me of Ashita no Joe artstyle at first glance lmao, looking at it closer it kinda looks like this memeish Yugioh face. But overall I like it and the dog is a nice touch. I also like how u drew the hair.
Interesting that you dislike Re:Zero XD but well, I as u can expect it gave it a pretty high rating - one of my favorite isekai probably XD. [still I need to rewatch it before season 3]
