Report Mantron's Profile

Well I've been fine, currently in the third year of my college and it's been going pretty well. What about you?

Nah, anime watching has basically stopped for me as you can see from my last anime updates lol. I've still some interest in manga although that seems to be reducing as well.

Happy Birthday!! 🥳

Haha I feel ya, even I'm not as active as I used to be cuz of college. I've burned out of anime and am pretty close to losing interest in manga as well. Just barely existing here cuz of FG.

So how's your college life and how is life in Bangalore?

sup mantron haven't seen you in a while

If you're insinuating the english dub/sub is not complete, it matters not... i'm watching the italian dub <(￣︶￣)>

Hi dear Im doing alright! Just living outside of the internet thats all :)

Thank you for your message though, how are you?

hey Mantron, it sure is. we haven't heard from each other for over a year now i believe. what's up?

i've been really busy and borderline stressed this month. medsurg is brutal, research thesis gives me third-degree migraine, and graveyard clinical hours rob me of sleep — the cherry on top is the fact it is currently my exam week too. still all manageable, of course, provided i collapse in frustration every now and then, kidding. i came here to unwind for a while and breathe life into my dead account, although i'll still be inactive 'til holidays anyway. haven't been drawn to anime lately, but i'm into books right now.

and yourself, how have you been?

Yeah, I have plans of pursuing my career in a commerce field. Most likely Chartered Accountancy (CA), Company Secretary (CS) or Human Resource Manager (HR), etc.



Hope you're doing great now and will continue to do so.



Well, that is one of the most promising career in today's world. Good Luck with that! Best wishes.

I am doing fine as well. And yeah life has gotten rather busy now.
Just one more year and I'll be in college as well. (HOPEFULLY)

You had your comments off for a while and I was wondering if DM would be appropriate lol.
Anyways, what're you planning on doing in college ? If you don't mind telling.

>I had never heard of cumlaude before. Does that mean passing with honors?
Yes, it's a prestigious title that shows you're competent and honorable in your study. There's 3 level of that which are cumlaude, magna cumlaude, and summa cumlaude. Summa cumlaude is basically almost impossible for me since it requires 3.91 GPA at least, so right now I'm working for magna.

>Are there opportunities for campus placements in your college?
Do you mean campus exchange? Well yes in 5th or 6th semester you have the opportunity to study abroad and gain double degree (optional) in other campus that has collaborated with my campus. Although I will be choosing internship to gain real work experience instead.

>I had problems with my studies and distractions. Chemistry was a very tough subject
I almost don't have any science related subjects at high school since I took the social branch (in my country it's called IPS while science branch is IPA). However at secondary school I do hate subjects like biology, physics, etc. I mean biology not really since I still remember some stuffs I've learn and sometimes there can be fun learning types of animal or organs in our body however physics is just a total lost for me. Literally don't remember a single thing from it, and my grade for it most of the time was bad anyway. Good thing I don't have to deal with it anymore.

>Have your favorites changed form before?
Not really I guess. Just not often to think about anime anymore.

I agree that FMA 2003 felt more darker thanks to it's comedy timing, colouring, and soundtracks. I'll give credit to 2003 for being written way before FMAB (manga) even reaches it half however in my opinion 2003 is still far more superior. Although conceptually is interesting as it attempt a deconstruction of it's system and had an Evangelion-typish message to the viewers, I still think FMAB themes such as value of life, human's nature and relationships, etc to be superior. Shown as how 2003 removes The Truth that took away "Man vs God" personal reflection. Not only that but 2003 doesn't have the poetic writing of FMAB (7 deadly sins of Father, gate of truth, detailed dynamic even to characters like Hohenheim and Wrath which never interact with each others). I don't like the isekai concept of 2003, could have used other ideas to present "entrophy" instead of this since it felt forced.

>And are you watching any good anime these days?
Hmmmm only Bungo Stray Dogs season 5 I guess.

>sorry for the late reply
No worries.

Hey, How you doing? Been a while.

>And how is your college going and in which year are you currently?
I'm doing very well in university. Currently I have 3.77 GPA out of 4.0 GPA scale and still eligible for cumlaude. This September will starts the 3rd semester. I've planned to graduate with more than 3.8 GPA and cumlaude so hopefully I'll keep doing good in next semesters.

>So presently I'm trying to get into learning programming and web development stuff. Although I'm very slow at that but I will get serious about that as soon as I joined
Good luck with that. One of my friends used to be taking Computer Science major and he said it was tough as hell.

>Does your branch/course require coding?
In my 2nd semester there is a subject called Statistics that requires coding in Microsoft Excel. I think this is the first video that I've searched in order to do some of my tasks :


I think some subjects in this 3rd semester will also requires programming.

>So I started the main series and it became one of my favorite anime
It seems that currently your favorites anime still remains quite the same since 2021 when I firstly encounter you. Do you still often thinking about them?

Nah, I've never left India. It was possible for me to do because my relative was abroad, I have no idea how this whole thing works lol.

Nah that's fine. Even I reply pretty late these days, my social battery has been running low lately lmao.

You'll find something interesting to watch eventually I'm sure. Nowadays I'm really picky about the stuff I decide to watch since I don't have much free time. Tbh lately I find more comfortable with manga than anime.

I'm doing good so far and no I'm not searching for job. I'm planning to do master degree

Haven't seen DBZ anime, what's the point when I've read the manga? :p


That's where I hope to be soon. I'd rather be not very active on mal than be chronically online. Baby steps though, baby steps.


Nah, I'm not. If I was though I'd be in my third year which would wild. Maybe in some alternate universe lol. What's your major and all that jazz?
