About Anime and Myself
I discovered anime when I was 6, and it is my only interest that has lasted for such a long time. Usually, I get bored with something in 3-4 years, but anime was an exception: as I grew up with it, my passion only became stronger. I currently see manga and anime as an integrant part of myself.
My profile name comes from my own manga character. "Konoko" is the alias of the MC from the game Oni (that I never played, but I loved the name 😋), and "Asada" is a mangaka's surname that I picked randomly from a borrowed manga's front cover.
My profile image represents my first sketch of Konoko Asada which a MAL friend (unfortunately, no longer on MAL) encouraged me to draw. It's actually part of a larger drawing that I've been working on since 2021 (Yeah! That's how inconsistent I am. 😋) Hopefully, things will change this year.
The top image is an extract from another project. For years, I've kept a sticker with that image of Naruto as my lucky charm in times of adversity. The drawing is my attempt to create a personalized design for a T-shirt. I put the in-progress image here as a reminder to continue. I hope to gradually bring updates.😉

MAL Rewrite Writer & Editor
MAL Rewrite is a community of ambitious people who aim to write top-quality original synopses for anime, manga, and novel entries across the entire database. For me, every synopsis I write or edit becomes a delightful, memorable mini-adventure.😊
From left to right: the first represents edited synopses for two new manga discoveries. The next five represent edited synopses for new anime discoveries. The next three represent edited synopses for anime I love. The last one represents the only synopsis I wrote in 2023 (One Piece anime series).😂
What Happened in 2023?
1) The anime that still shakes me even after 8 months since I watched it: Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso
2) The most healing anime I've ever watched: Usagi Drop
To me, Rin and Daikichi embody the true essence of humanity.
3) The anime music that conquered my heart:
I. Suzume no Tojimari Theme Song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xs0Lxif1u9E
II. Berserk 2nd Season Opening Theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CVNy1p3CrVM
III. Hajimari no Boukensha-tachi: Legend of Crystania Ending Theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RzCKaV1V3zs
4) My favorite 2023 anime character: Nirasaki from Ookami Kodomo no Ame to Yuki
5) The most breathtaking fight I've ever seen in anime or anything else (although the series' CGI was a torture!!!): Guts & Mozgus -> Berserk (2016).
6) The most harmful manga for me: Takopii no Genzai
I don't deny it vividly represents a painful truth, which is a beneficial wake-up call. However, the message is too aggressive for me; not my cup of tea.
What do I look forward to in 2024?
1) Yuru Camp△ Season 3
2) Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica Movie 4: Walpurgis no Kaiten
3) Bleach: Sennen Kessen-hen - Soukoku-tan
4) Hibike! Euphonium 3
5) Gekai Elise
6) Yarinaoshi Reijou wa Ryuutei Heika wo Kouryakuchuu anime adaptation

I mean... I understand that he cares her without showing, and also can show...ANGER if someone goes in their way, but surprised? That was a first.
Still dont started, its in plans, someday. Checked some random parts and scenes of the original characters in this one, still not going to share spoilers ^^
I wish you all the best as well. You seem to be a really busy person, so all I can do is hope you get to relax as much as you want in all these endeavors. Stay safe out there.
Anyway, been a while Konoko, how have you been?!
I found out about the Final Act here at MAL! That's one of my favorite things here: you can find out if there are any sequels/specials/ovas that you never heard about it!
(sure, sometimes a random person shows up and send a random FR asking if you like Inuyasha, still)
There is this scene in Final Act where Rin asks Sesshoumaru if he will miss her after she dies that really got me. I guess it got HIM as well, he even shows emotion! xD
Did you watched Yashahime?
Oh, Inuyasha fan? Its a forgotten gem! It took me years to find out about the "final act", its a great ending to the series!
