Art student - my list backgrounds were drawn by me :>
Studying Japanese and French - Fairly fluent in Japanese (Conan helped a lot); my French is awful atm
Off and on learning guitar, piano, and shamisen as well, I suck at all of them!!
Art and music lover ~favorite genres: jazz-funk, enka, prog rock, classical, ska, 70s in general
I love tokusatsu my favorite of all time is Godzilla, but also Kamen Rider, Ultraman, and Giant Robo.
With that, I just generally like anything with supernatural/monsters/ghosts/aliens/espers.
I've also watched a lot of French animated films; my favorite's A Cat in Paris

Favorite Quotes
Lupin: "There's only one person in the audience of your life: yourself. So what's the point if you don't care what happens next in the story?"
Tylor: "You only live once, so don't live according to someone else's rules. Always do what you want the way you want to."
Hayao Miyazaki: "Most important things in life are a hassle. If life's hassles disappeared, you'd want them back."
Spike Spiegel: "Oh well, whatever happens, happens."
Mamo: "Lupin doesn't even dream! Emptiness, nothing! Only God or a complete idiot would have a subconscious like that!"
Jet: "And really, there is nothing more innocent and cruel than a child."
Olivier Armstrong: "If he died with a smile, then we can't let ourselves weep over him."
Aya Kouda: "No one can compete with the perfection of the dead."
Ozu: "Can you really achieve personal growth by relying on an air conditioner?"
Lupin: "Don't worry about Hell, we're going deeper."

and yea good point, also Samurai Champloo has a good dub that could help newcomers if they aren't ready for subs yet.
Oh Minus One is that good? I haven't seen it myself but hearing u praise it like that makes me wana watch it, I'll let you know my thoughts when I do :)
Have you watched Godzilla minus one (black n white)? just kinda curious how it'll hold up to an actual retro fan
I think it's cool that you have more of a retro taste in things, and your art is really good, such a fun style!
