I also like seeing Anime and Manga as an form of art, they are some crazy artists out there, that make amazing work. Well for me its quite the same, how I got into anime. I do currently live in Germany, but have some plans to go abroad for maybe a year. I know Adult Swim and Cartoon Network, but in Germany they are not that popular than in the US. Cartoon Network showed back in the days some anime like Dragonball Z, but nothing more. Adult Swim came up the last 3 years and mostly they were more showing shows like Rick and Morty or somthing similar. When I was a kid we had a channel called "Pukito" where pretty much every basic shonen was shown. Thats were I started watching stuff like Dragonball and Naruto. Then I got pretty much into every series and had shows like Death Note or Cowboy Bebop get me even more into the anime world. Nowdays the channel doesnt exist anymore, which is pretty sad, but I love looking back at the time, when I came home from school and watched a new Episode of Naruto or something else.

Hey, no problem I wasnt really active in the last days, so its okay, that you reply now. Well that sounds like a nice collection you have there, I collected some stuff for quite some time, , but I made it really my hobby in the past 4/5 years. Literally everything I have is great, so its pretty hard to pick a favourite :D. But I would say one of the Items I have a great memory with, is the first figure I bought also at an Convention. I picked as my first figure Ace from One Piece and thats where all my collecting began. Im searching now for a good looking figure of Cowboy Bebop (I Dont really know If I want to pick Spike or Faye). I feel also the same about anime/manga based decorations. When I got in my first own home not a while ago, I had some great time decorating and searcing for nice stuff to buy.
I like our conversations and im glad, that we can exchange our hobbys. So how did your Journey start into the world of Anime/Manga? :)

Thank you for the friend request!

Thanks for the recommendations! I also like to collect anime-related stuff. I got me a, I would say ,good collection of manga and I am also starting to collect some figures. Which one do you got?
Well I started first also collecting DVDs of animes, but they are way to expensive for my budget (atleast in Germany )
I buy me some manga like every 2 months and you could say I´m pretty addicted with collecting stuff.
I collect these stuff for like atleast 9-10 years,how long are you collecting these stuff?

Yeah I would really recommend you to watch/read it, And if you also love Kyoto Animation then its best to start with the anime.
Oh, I heard of the fire in one of the Studios of Kyoto Animation, but didn`t know that it was attacked. They are doing an amazing work and im excited to see some new things from them.
Okay, im going to set Sound of the Sky on Plan to Watch and watch it when I have the time :)
Is there any other recommendations you have? ^^ (not asking for one genre just generally)

Oh thats nice, Girls and Panzer sounds kinda familiar to me, could be that I have seen it in the past. There are some amazing tournament arcs out there, I also like watching them here and now.

When it comes to Slice of Life and Mystery series, I like some classics like Suzumiya Haruhi (also Hyouka, because I have a guilty pleasure for all things done by Kyoto Animation, it always looks amazing)
I dont know Sound of the Sky, but maybe I should give it a read sometimes,

I have watched Nichijou and its pretty good! Yeah ,Sakamoto has a pretty weird kind of comedy ,sometimes I laughed at it and sometimes it made me cringe. But it was still good to enjoy. Well, whats your favourite genre? For me it would be like a mix of Slice of Life and Mystery. But I mostly can enjoy all kinds of genres, how about you?

Hey, yeah Cowboy Bebop is amazing! It is one of the first animes I have watched Konosuba, its okay, I heard many people talking about it, like it is the best comedy anime of all time. I think it was good, but there are definitely funnier shows like Saiki K (if you havent watched Saiki K, you should really give it a try, its very funny). So what do you think of Konosuba?

Nice I don't really have much knowledge about the composers usually but my favorite ost is from Yosuga no Sora from Bruno-Wen Li. Clannad also has a really nice OST. I usually just refer the OSTs to the anime's.

I know I also wouldn't be able to just choose one film, but LotR is indeed a masterpiece, I also really like Deadpool, Kick-Ass and like every Disney/Pixar movie. XD
I've not looked into it to deep, but I think your dad is right. The fact that it's depressing doesn't matter for me, I've seen more depressing ones. I just felt like the ending was such a weird one, like your missing half of the movie. It doesn't have to be a happy end, but a ending would be nice.

Yeah I agree, it was a bit frustrating for me, he gave up on all those great girls to choose his sister and then they just end it. I know there is heavily hinted that they still love eachother, but still. I would have been fine with him choosing Ruri Goko as well. She was such a interesting character. I've been reading the LN and I have the Games as well, in the game you can end up with all the girls. It's just very hard for me to keep reading the LN and I've been reading it for over 2 years now I think. It's weird it says the LN is published again, be I would have sworn it was done already. There where 12 volumes, weird. :o

I have no idea, I think the first volume should be out, but I'm reading online, so no idea if It's also available in the west.

It sounds very interesting, music can also really make an anime shine. What is a good action scene without some fitting action music. I mean the OP for the first season of AoT was already enough to get me in the mood. Music can really add strength to the mood they want you to feel. Like a sad song during sad scenes can really make it more sad. I also listen to anime music OP/ED/OST etc when I'm just listing to music. What kind of music do you listen to?

Haha nice, I'll look into the The Thing then. What is your favorite movie?
I'm not the biggest fan of open endings, but Kimi no Na Wa was very good, I enjoyed 5 centimeters per second a bit less.

What did you think of the ending of Oreimo? Haha well I have seen some others, but most are pretty bad, and wouldn't be worth watching unless you have intrest in those kind of anime. I would say "Siscon Ani to Brocon Imouto ga Shoujiki ni Nattara" is a very nice and lovely manga about brother and sister falling in love. I't doesn't go far, it's just really cute and I wonder if people would still disapprove their relationship after reading it. (it's still being written). Yeah in the past Incest was pretty normal, especially in the royal families.

It sounds interesting, I'll listen to the TED talk, Maybe that would be a book I'm willing to read. :o
Haha no problem. ^^

That is true, I just don't get the same feeling reading action manga, in comparison to the anime. The anime usually gets my Adrenalin pumping when there are really good awesome action scenes. Like the scenes of them flying trough the city and fighting the titans, I don't see how that can be as awesome in a manga. So I only like manga's that are based on story. Or of course when an anime has doesn't have an ending and the manga does.

I usually like tension more than jumpscares and such. As soon as you see the demon/monster or whatever it's not scary anymore. That's why I like the Blair Witch project, have you seen it?

I see I'll look into it, after Higursashi I'm gonna watch something more easygoing so maybe after that. I also need to watch The Thing someday. I have seen most well known horror movies, but The Thing still not.

Body and gender swapping also sounds interesting, I've only seen it happen in Kimi No Na Wa.

Thanks!

It depends on where you draw the line. I would say Koi Kaze is the best. It has a very mature approach to the topic, it's a bit slow, but if you don't mind that it's good. Yosuga no Sora goes a bit further, but only the last arc is interesting. If you want something more light Oreimo might be a good choice. It's a very typical harem anime though.

If you watch it let me know, I'm not so much into reading, so I rather go with the anime, unless it's really bad in comparison to the manga. :)

Yeah I have been a big horror movie fan in the past, until I saw almost all good ones and they stopped scaring me. Usually the story of horror anime isn't good, but with Psychological horror the stories are usually better. I really like those that give you a uneasy feeling, instead of making you feel scared. I've seen A Cure for Wellness in the cinema, it was okay, it was a bit weird, but atleast it was unique in a way.

Haven't heard of those, but no more in a controversial relationship way. Like forbidden relationships, because they are family. It's interesting because it give you something to think about. A bit of moral vs feeling matter.

Yeah true, I just grab anime from all over the place. Higurashi is from 2006, while I also plan on watching the latest spring/summer anime's I've been interested in soon.

Yeah that is the nice thing about winter, you can always add more layers. ^^

Never heard of Claymore, it sounds interesting, is the anime also good?
I've seen the anime of Made in Abyss, it's one of my favorites I really look forward to the sequel movie.

I haven't heard of any of those movies, I'll look into them.
That sounds cool, I also always want to see a anime movie in a theater/cinema someday.

I finished the first season of Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni this weekend. It's a psychological horror anime. it was pretty good. It wasn't scary nor really disturbing, only one scene kind of disturbed me. Well I've already seen so many horror movies in the past I became pretty immune.

As for things that catch my intrest, well I'm not really picky and try to mix up genres. I can really enjoy a good romantic drama, but also some psychological horror or comedy. I do like to watch more controversial anime's once in a while. How about you? ^^

I'm doing good, thanks for asking!
I'm not to keen on cold weather, but it beats the hot summer we had >w<

What anime/manga are you currently working on? :)

Hello thanks for adding me,

How are you doing? :)
