Record of the Lodoss Wars was what got me hooked on anime, thanks to my friends influence. We had an anime gang back in Singapore but I haven't been able to find a club in the States. Initially I thought anime must not be as popular but judging by MAL membership, there's a lot of fans here too, we must just be geographically spread out.
My old anime gang was a great cross section of people. There were the manga freaks, the serious otakus, the robot guys, the cutie pie clique, the fight club, the "pretty doll" lovers, the ecchi/hentai fans, the action figure painters (me) and the "must watch something to cry about" softies. Pity, they were great guys, we used to host anime viewing at different members' houses on a rotating basis, the only rules were (1) minimum disclosure of anime plotline - no spoilers, and prep in case some hentai is involved (2) pause VCR for food and bathroom breaks only during anime halftime. We would stay over and watch anime for like 12 hours straight, then go out and eat, then more anime! Sometimes I dozed off. Those were great anime weekends. I really miss my old anime gang but I think everyone's scattered to the 4 corners of the world now. My dream is to re-start a new and social anime club/gang where I live. The house is big so there's room for people to crash over on weekends. Sadly, real life intervened and I took a super long break from anime (10 years). I am back now that I have time, but my dream of a social anime club/gang has turned into an online one instead where I now discuss anime with friends from across the world. It's not the same as RL watching in a room but it's pretty good because you meet folks from everywhere. Anime discord friends, I salute you! The owner has given us permission to link it below. https://discord.gg/bp5GzYpcbq So, recently discovered Interest Stacks and am working on a few that I will update periodically (once every 3 to 6 months) as I watch more anime. I love Gourmet Anime and am trying to watch them all but some are really hard (impossible) to find on streaming. In any case, here are the initial interest stacks for gourmet anime.

I just looked up that Lodoss character and... wow, yeah you weren't kidding lol! Quite an outfit choice for sure.
I'm really liking Dirty Pair, I haven't gotten to the remake yet but I think I already know that I like the older art style better. I have a thing for 80s-90s art style anyway, but I particularly like Kei's design and also like her personality a lot, she's definitely my favorite character (Mughi is a close second).
Yeah the amount of trouble they cause is pretty hilarious, and it's one of those shows where I don't mind that it's episodic, because each episode has provided enough interest to stand on its own so far I feel like (plus I feel that it still helps develop Kei's and Yuri's personalities nonetheless).
It sounds like you had a really cool D&D group, that's awesome! I did for a short time have a Pathfinders group when I was younger, but it didn't last super long. A while later I had a D&D group for a short time, but then covid happened. I will say, Baldur's Gate 3 has reignited my love for D&D though, I imagine having a group to play with it could really feel like doing TTRPG sessions again.

this one my bestt journey of gourmet hahah :>
I still feel really new to anime as a whole, but I'm sure if I ever decide to get into ones that feature unusual butlers, I know exactly whose stack I'll be looking at. It's been a blast so far, hopping from genre to genre. I had absolutely no idea that anime had such a vast variety of content up until a year ago. Thanks for becoming part of my network of guides!
I found your profile because I'm always browsing reviews for everything I plan to watch, and then again whenever I complete something. I think I kept seeing your reviews pop up over the course of a few weeks, so I glanced at your profile. I'm also a total fiend for the "stacks" on here, so when I saw that you had created some, I had to take a look. I found one in particular that I really appreciated, and then decided to send you a request. The stack I'm referring to was the Educational Gourmet one. It's a genre that I've been meaning to get into. One of my hobbies is cooking for myself, so I'm interested in watching some of them for recipe ideas. Also to just take a look into another corner of anime that I've only briefly touched on. Your guide was exactly what I was looking for. I found your notes on each entry very helpful. Most stacks I view seem to be very low effort, usually just throwing 50 shows together with no framework, and no comments on what I'm supposed to be looking at or learning.
So it's nice to meet you, and thanks again. You should do more reviews for sure!
