Yes Gakkougurashi Manga a bit underrated tho, so not much people knew this Manga

how has 2025 been for you so far?

lol

Hmm, for the new season, I really enjoyed Kusuriya/Apothecary's first season and its first episode this season was also really enjoyable for me. Aside from that I haven't really tried anything of the new stuff yet, only the leftovers from last season like the Kenshin remake and Ao no Hako/Blue Box.

As far as rewatching is concerned, because I spend lately some time with studies about the sengoku era, I started rewatching Oda Nobuna no Yabou for the umphteenth time. The show has a killer soundtrack, if nothing else. And even though I first got subjected to it like 15 years ago, I still somehow enjoy historical characters made into anime girls, like Fates Saber or said Nobuna.

But a friend also trapped into Genshin with that music video of blazing heart, so I have even less time for anime now. But I know Genshin never holds me for longer than 2 weeks, anyways :D
I would love to ask what you've been up to watching, but you already said that you haven't touched a show in a long time, so... some interesting game caught you recently?

Grüß Gott, schön zu sehen, dass es noch andere Deutsche hier gibt und deine Nomengroßschreibung gefällt mir auch! :D
Gerne doch, mich freut es besonders zu sehen, dass es noch andere Benutzer hier gibt, die einfühlsam und mit Mitgefühl reagieren. Soetwas wird gerade hier sehr gut gebraucht, denn es gibt so einige hier, welche schwere Zeiten hinter sich hatten, bzw. noch durchmachen.

Danke für deine aufmunternden Worte. Bei weitem nicht so weit wie ich um die Zeit kommen wollte, aber das Leben ist kein Wettrennen. Ich mag vielleicht weitesgehend ausgebrannt sein, aber ich bin guter Dinge, wenn ich sehe, dass ich würdevolle Nachfolger im Forum habe. Mach' weiter so!

Thanks for the well wishes and I appreciate you reading it :)
Ah I don't mind discussing it all, have done so quite a few times on MAL already.
I get apprehensive about certain replies though, as I know it's quite unbelievable sounding.
But your right that it sounds like a movie plot, it totally does. My mother even wanted books and movies made about it if we were allowed to, but all our reputations are too badly damaged (save for a court judgement if there was one) and we were dealing with other stuff, just never had a moment to give it real serious thought. My (unwell) sister was a good writer though, she wrote an unpublished novel before she went strange 🥺

It's not totally an unheard thing regarding the NHS to do something like this, but it's notoriously difficult to pursue them, as they close ranks to protect themselves and the NHS especially.
We really had all the proof we needed, but they decided to take the option that they did unfortunately.

My sister is in kind of a difficult situation. She's under the care of the local council there, they even went to court to obtain care over her from us, as the relationship between my family and care teams wasn't ideal. They had their own ideas and wouldn't listen our wishes and considerations, and they thought she'd be better living away in a flat complex with other similarly affected people instead of at home with us, and they didn't want my mother seeing her.
It's difficult actually trying to contact her, as she doesn't seem to remember anyone or fully grasp the real current world and situation, and how she is changes often, like personality disorders I guess? but she might also be suffering from a some sort of brain damage... really not sure :/ she's been admitted into hospital about 3 different times and each time she got released she was less & less like her normal self.
It wasn't quite so bad before, as I could at least visit her and tidy her place up, as she hoards stuff. But since the pandemic lockdowns happened, she seemed to think none of us cared about her, but again that changed to her being like what she is now.

But mental health procedures have changed since these episodes of her's happened, and it's more difficult to get to her without police intervention, and she's not an outright risk to anyone, she's just odd and hides away.
My eldest sister tried contacting her after my mother passed away, but she didn't recognise her and told her to go away.
We've tried contacting the hospital where she came out of about her, but all they could do was get her GP to write to her, but she'll just ignore the letters.

It still affects me because our medical records within the NHS have been doctored and shared around, and the true ones hidden.
I think my true ones are under a butchered version of my full name to make me female, but I don't know for certain as my mother was told that off the record.
I do have true private records, but getting people to seek them was always difficult with our deliberately ruined reputations and the wrong records on-hand. People usually just see that and go no further.

I think it's too far gone to overturn it all now.
My life currently is much more settled and I'm doing some things I missed out on, I get a bit scared about going too far away from home though 😅 and I still go to my big sis for help on things, as most stuff was quite new to me.
I was always a bit of a loner, but I'm starting to meet people through hobbies. I'm apprehensive about getting too close to people though, would love to have a family of my own, but don't know if it would be safe to if nothing changes.

Ah I guess it's a bit like better the devil I know when it comes to my country/location...
I was very sheltered and haven't been to other countries until fairly recently. I can't drive so I would prefer somewhere that's easy to get around without one.
I liked the Isle of Man - which is a small island off the UK that isn't part of the UK, but my country defends it militarily.
That felt like a much better version of the UK and doesn't have the NHS. Not sure if I could afford to live there though...
My eldest sis has a home in Spain that she lives between there and here, but I'm not a massive fan of the country. It's much bigger than here and hard to get around, and I don't like the climate 😅
I don't hate the UK though, just don't feel all-that safe or comfortable here... but I can get to my hobby stuffs much easier.
A lot would have depended on our case's outcomes, as if we won we could have stayed and felt safe here, as we would probably have been untouchable. Or could have gone abroad also.
But at the time of this happening, there wasn't many places in the world that was able to treat patients such as us, and one of those was in England near London, whe just needed funding to pay for it.
Probably many other places in the world have these capabilities now, but trust was a much bigger thing. I still hopefully have my private Dr to go back to, but unfortunately she's not nearby, as the family home near her is rented now, me and my eldest sis are landlords of it.

You know, back in my days we were working all the time and had no time to be on the internetz...
Nah, just kidding. Not sure what I can really tell. I've been watching less (new) anime lately and often rewatch stuff, and haven't really found lot of time for gaming, which is kinda... sad. But the ones I do watch are usually enjoyable, so I guess everything is good, I'd say.

How you doing, son?

Ah hi, still living in the UK where it all happened.

Well I'm doing better than my sis is currently... Both my Dad & middle sibling (sister) suffered from some strange mental breakdown-type episodes which can mimic our true illness symptoms about 17-18 years ago now (our true illnesses are affects from organophosphate poisoning), but our illnesses aren't recognised by my country's state healthcare system (NHS), as it was caused at one of their hospitals in Wales where staff & patients died from it, others were secondary exposed (like my Dad & middle sibling) and those pregnant had problems with their newborns like I was as a surviving twin, my mother was a nurse there at the hospital.
It was a massive scandal that's mostly been covered-up, and getting treatment for us all was very difficult as recognising our true illnesses is a big headache for people and government.
My mother was a whistleblower there, but because of that she was career assassinated and she was blamed for various things concerning it - making it up for money, abusing patients as well as myself, and making me think I was unwell, and that's what caused care orders for me as a kid.

We all had private treatment when we managed to find people brave enough to help us, but even some of these turned on us as they were helping those against us. The last Dr. that was a great help to us was our private one I mentioned that we moved area from.
When my Dad & Sis had their problems, they were just processed as regular mental health patients, not considering their severe allergic reactions to certain drugs and chemicals, and to me & my mother at the time, they were in the wrong treatment facility.
But getting across our true illnesses and that we had our own places to be treated at was always difficult, as like I said before, we all had falsified medical records within the NHS, so they just did whatever without much input from our private Dr. or listening to our very real concerns.

My sis currently doesn't remember her own family and can't look after herself well at all, she presents as very troubled and unkept.
I haven't seen her for a while as she lives in my hometown, not where I live currently.
Whatever treatment she had absolutely didn't work.
My Dad was similar, but he at least was allowed back home and my mother and I cared for him.

My Mum & Dad passed away in 2019 & 2021.
Together they worked on all the legal cases involving us, and it did go through all the courts, but only really got properly looked at the final one that it ended up in, and I'm not sure what the outcome even was, as they said it would take years to go through it all, and my mother passed away before getting back to them.

As for myself I'm mostly okay. It was a big shock losing my parents, as I'd always lived with at least one of them, as what we were involved with made them very protective of me, and I had the care orders that my parents protected me from by moving around our 4 different homes and not announcing where I was.
I also have my eldest sis who's been a big help to me in finding my feet and it was nice reconnecting with her and my niece and nephew, as they were made to keep their distance from all our hassles, incase they got caught up in it.
I guess my biggest problem is if I get ill, because I don't think the wrongness was made to be corrected, save for a court judgement I don't think much can be done, my parents did all they could and were allowed to at the time. It made my childhood-teenhood quite different and difficult, even left school for safety and bullying reasons to be home educated.
We were never financially compensated as far as I'm aware? and even though my family were in a decent financial state, they spent lots on private healthcare & legal representation, as usually our lawyers dumped us or got tempted by those against us.
We hung on some how.

Sorry that's a big read 😅 it usually is when I talk about it, as it happened a long time ago and a lot happened in that time.

I'm just 3 years older than you, but... sure, if it makes you happy, of course you can call me Dad! I don't mind.

Hey, thanks!
