hello:)
thanks for stopping by my profile!
feel free to send me a friend request if you'd like. i accept basically all of them. don't hesitate to start a conversation either. i enjoy talking about interests with people. recommendations are always welcome as well!
i'm not very good at expressing myself in words, so i apologize if a lot of what i say comes off as repetitive or exagerated.
i haven't been watching anime for very long. i started in 2021 and have since fallen into the hole that is anime, and more recently, manga. i've since watched many different shows, but it still feels pretty new to me, haha.
my first anime was seven deadly sins. yeah, i know, probably not the best anime to be my first now that i look back on it, but hey, it caught my attention enough to get me to watch more animes, so i'll take it.
besides anime, i enjoy watching horror/mystery movies and shows. i also enjoy queer romance shows. as for books it's pretty much the same thing. mostly queer romance novels, mystery, and sci-fi.
im not really sure what else to say, so i'll leave it there for now. thanks again for stopping by!
ratings
i rate everything purely based on how well it entertains me and keeps my attention. things like how technically good the writing or animation is don't particularly bother me as long as the show is able to hold my attention. the higher i rate a show, the more i enjoyed and was immersed in the story.
the same applies with mangas. the more entertained i am by the story, the higher my ranking will be.

Happy birthday!
Due to my final exams and Japan travelling, I've fallen behind a lot and I'm trying to muster up the motivation to catch up soon.
I'll give my EJU exam in Nov. and see how it goes from there.
Ah, that's totally valid. I've been away from family ever since the start of my second semester of University so it's been about 3.5 years now. Since I am currently in Nagoya, Japan, the distance has gone further up than when I was in Hong Kong (relative to Beijing), lol.
Thanks, and you too!
Glad we got the sequel instantly :) I was hoping BokuYaba, Undead Unluck and Sousou no Frieren would get the announcements too, but sadly not (yet).
True, I was listening to Florian Bur the other day during one of my study sessions, so that's a welcome change in a while, lol. Usually I'm not picky, it's just I don't get exposure to different types and I normally don't go out of my way to broaden my horizons either.
Yeah, it's been pretty hectic, as you guessed. And thanks! I've been set on Japan even before my Bachelors' but chose not to move there earlier because of lack of funding but I'm back to looking for further study options there now. Career-wise, I'm cool with anything that has some level of social engineering elements. I totally understand that dependency feeling though, it's just I have been living the expatriate life all along so I didn't find it as daunting, lol.
Sorry for the late reply btw, I seem to have missed your message.
Ah, I've been considering the same, lol. It's been such a delight and I know it's doing well in Japan, so hopefully they announce a sequel in two weeks' time. Light novels generally take a longer time to translate, you're right. I don't know how quick the manga updates are but I've heard that the manga is still a long way ahead.
Oh, that's impressive! I wish I had a music background too but because of my family's religious stance, sadly, I didn't. I did try the drums a bit secretly but realised I've no talent there, lmao. I get new songs from YouTube Music radio playlists so I probably listen to songs that aren't too varied usually. Other than that, I keep an eye on Oricon charts to see if there's something new trending.
Oh no, not at all. That was the only time I did club stuff in my entire Uni life, xD. And I don't think I'll do more since I'll be graduating in 2-ish months. I totally get your feeling though, I wouldn't have done it either if I weren't eyeing to move to Japan honestly.
Ah, it was decent. Cool action scenes but the story was wayward.
Oh thanks, and you too!
Oh, no worries, I didn't really mean anything specific, lol. On the topic of manga, I can totally relate, I've phases where I read a bunch of manga for a week and then take a half-year pause. Since I've plenty of well-renowned manga in my on-hold list, I'm hoping to get around to finishing them first before venturing into new ones. Although I've got a feeling a couple from BokuYaba, Kusuriya no Hitorigoto, Sousou no Frieren and Undead Unluck might go straight into my reading with full priority depending on how the shows end, my mood then and if there'll be a sequel announcement.
That's interesting! To be honest, I'm not that familiar with music, I prefer keeping up with Jpop and Jrock instead in my free time. The only time I do care is during study motivation but anime osts seem to work the best for me, so I haven't tried exploring much else lately. I would imagine the results being vastly different with a few trends because music is one of the most subjective pieces of entertainment, especially when it comes to favourite artists and/or album/song choices.
Hey, that sounds cool, congratulations! You're doing better than me, lol. I'm swamped with Uni work right now and I just finished a 9-hour shift at the Japanese Culture Club of my University for their biggest event ever, so I've been getting by at least.
I've started watching a Netflix original Jdrama called House of Ninja but I'm pretty sure I'll binge that tonight and then get back to anime, xD.
Ah, I don't know too much about Ishura either and I've been finding it fine so far but I totally get your point. Same with Bucchigiri, it's been alright. Haven't watched delusional monthly so no clue about that.
Anything besides anime you've been up to these days?
