So uh, my real name is Dimas S, and I'm 19 years old at this moment. People usually call me Dimas, but you can just call me Ganshine or Rei since I'm also called by that nickname pretty often on the internet. I was born and still living in Indonesia up until now (which means English is not my primary language, so please keep it in mind XD). I've been watching anime since I was little, but I've been into anime since I was around 14 years old. Fairy Tail was my gateway show (yeah, it's actually kinda sad. Some other anime that is way better than Fairy Tail must have been a good start for me to enter the 'anime world' but, oh well :/). Then, albeit rather slowly, I started to watch those non-long running anime, anime while it's airing on that season, and such.
I've been learning Japanese language since I entered senior high school in order to pursue myself into the journey of becoming the ultimate weeaboo and I am now taking Japanese literature as my major. Why Japanese lit, you ask? Well, because I believe that you'll most likely to enjoy your work, even to the point that you don't have to work for the rest of your life, if you choose to do what you're interested in.
So I guess that's pretty much it about my personal introduction ^^
Thanks for your time! Have a great day :)
My Personal Favorite Anime Series and why:
Nichijou. aka. the holy anime. Believe me. Some random plox said that you better watch it when(ever) you feel depressed, stressed, or sad. To be honest, I couldn't agree more with that. Never got bored from rewatching this. Random skits were scattered everywhere in each episode, and they were all hilarious as hell. One thing left me confused is that Nichijou got a bunch of positive comments outside Japan, but wasn't selling really well in Japan itself. How... come... T^T
Clannad: After Story. Loved the drama. Only few drama shows that managed to make me shed my tears, but only during the finale. This one is different. Starting from episode (spoiler) until episode (spoiler), my tears just won't stop. Well, it might sounded like I'm exaggerating, but you get what I mean. Oh and also, the romance and the fantasy touch were amazing. Atta boy, Jun Maeda.
Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun. One of the few anime that makes me laugh so hard lots of time from each episode. Second best in term of Comedy. Also, CHIYO SAKURA BEST GRILLLLL. Seo is also a god-tier gril. Cons? Need a sequel. Really bad. SO BAD.
Hibike! Euphonium. A late bloomer. Starts off as an average show, but is getting pretty decent afterwards. I mean, what can you expect from KyoAni this time around? The answer is this. Touching drama, outstanding art, and very enjoyable. Another reason for me to not missing out every KyoAni's works. No matter how bad it is, I assume. (Yes, I'm staring at you, Musaigen.) As for the second season? I'll never forget how beautiful it is.
Rokka no Yuusha. Despite for being called as a fail in both adventure and mystery category, I just can't deny the fact that I love this anime. I enjoyed it since its premiere. Probably it was because Flamie.Nachetanya too. Nah jk. I loved the plot. It's intriguing. This anime makes me really curious about what's going to happen for each episode of it.
No Game No Life. I've rewatched this show more than once I believe. Overrated? Well, of course it is, but in a good way. I loved the concept. All in all, it was obviously enjoyable. Less fan service would be much better, though.
Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso. Beautiful art. Nice romance. Awesome OP and ED. 'Nuff said?
The iDOLM@STER : Cinderella Girls. Literally my personal favorite. I know this Idol anime isn't all that good. But, I still love it. Enjoyable slice of life, gr8 grils, also not a bad idea to put a little conflict and drama into the second season, although it's way inferior compared to the first season imo. The main reason why I started watching this series was because Rin, though. Honest. She was too gorgeous I just can't resist.
WataMote. Another literally my personal favorite. The animation was okay. Watamote barely has plot in all of its episode (since it's a slice of life show, duh.). This might sounds like I'm exaggerating, but I feel like I can understand what Kuroki is feeling (lel). Not the kind of anime that I would like to re-watch every time, but it was a good time waster.
Fairy Tail. The reason why I started exploring the anime universe. Which is why I can't drop this so-called garbage by people (and yes, I also admit that.). It was quite funny, and also has a little bit taste of sadness. Just, it needs to decrease the amount of pointless fan services, like, seriously. The nakama nonsense power, too, ruined the quality. It's the only long-running anime I'm watching currently up until now.
Honorable Mentions:
AnoHana. Great drama anime, even though its supernatural element is kind of absurd.
Barakamon. One of the best slice-of-life anime, duh?
Bokura wa Minna Kawaisou. Quite funny for most of the time. Very worth watching.
D-Frag!. Also one of the best in term of comedy. Another anime that I think needs a sequel.
Gugure! Kokkuri-san. Pretty much Barakamon with a touch of supernatural.
Nanatsu no Taizai. Favorite shounen anime I've ever seen. Not to mention catchy OP and ED as hell.
Selector WIXOSS. Left many unanswered questions, yet the dark theme really got me.
Shirobako. Very inspirational. Shows how hectic it is working in an anime industry. Don-don-donuts, let's go nuts!
Shokugeki no Souma. We rarely see any cooking anime nowadays, don't we?
Yuuki Yuna wa Yuusha de Aru. The finale was a bit of letdown, yet a brilliant concept.
My Version of Anime Ranking of All Time:
NOTE : This list is only based on all the anime I have completed watching. Short duration anime, anime movies, on-holds and dropped anime, OVAs, ONAs, and special episodes are excluded here.
There might be some slight differences with my personal favorite and best of the year anime list as what I classify as favorite doesn't always mean it's better.
Anime in bold are the shows that I consider worth watching.
Also, please keep it in mind that this is MY own list, so please bear with my shit taste. This section might be outdated since I rarely edit this one.

Music. Example : Hibike! Euphonium

Romance. Example : Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso
Fantasy. Example : Yuuki Yuna wa Yuusha de Aru
My preferences on deciding NOT to watch certain anime:
Its rating Nope, not the score rating, but what the anime is rated. I usually don't watch R-rated anime because I personally couldn't stand gores, body dismembering, seeing internal organs, and even bloods at some point, no matter if the plot and its enjoyment are said to be really good. Madoka, Parasyte, Shinsekai yori are some of the example. I'm also not really interested in those with R+ rating because, well, it makes me uncomfortable for some reason. But of course, exemptions can still be made for both rating.
Bad art and animation. Like, really bad. Unless their plot are really that good, or if they have a really good score on MAL, such as Ping Pong the Animation, or Nobunaga Concerto, then I might reconsider it. (It's not like those that I mentioned are bad, though. More like, they have unique art style.)
Their debut time. As I said earlier, I don't watch some anime because some of them has an awful art and animation. Well, sometimes, the reason being they aired at least a decade ago. But, like I said, it's just sometimes, since I managed to watch some, like Clannad, or Tokyo Mew Mew.
Not recommended, and not enjoyable, duh. Well, even though I watched those like Koufuku Graffiti, Mikagura School Suite, and Mekakucity Actors. I don't even know why I watch them, so don't bother ask.
Short duration. Well, to put it simply, I don't watch most short anime. The only one I found quite enjoyable so far were The Disastrous Life of Saiki K. (if you consider that as short ones) and I can't Understand what My Husband is Saying.
Ayo! Long time no talk ^^ (Or in this case, not at all! xD) I was wondering if you could click on any of these lil' eggs, cause it takes quite of time to hatch them, haha. Even if it's just one, I'd appreciate it, thanks!
