Wow bit late, forgot about this but ya its shit... However I do personally enjoy watching garbage anime.

Have you watched any good anime yet?

My bad, I saw a spoiler, and wanted to finish it before replying, but kept stalling, and it's not even much of a spoiler. Lol. I still understand why you would want to put it in a spoiler area, though. At 25 episodes, I think it's 10/10. I don't think I've seen a show before with great Shounen-style animation that also has a slower pace, and a lack of a need to constantly have "Shounen-style" highs. It's a compulsory 10/10 with some lukewarm feelings. Kinda like the final seasons of Attack on Titan, it feels 10/10, but I have 9's that are more favourites than it.

The 2nd one is Asuna-san https://myanimelist.net/character/36828/Asuna_Yuuki?q=asuna&cat=character

And who seriously didn't watch Sailormoon in the 90s? Only if you lived under a rock, or in a cave maybe ;-)

I wouldn't say there's a such thing as a failed pianist, as long as you're playing for your own enjoyment. Yeah, yeah, easy for me to say, even as I kind of consider myself one. But, never too late, I suppose.

Music to share: No performances just yet, though I'm working towards putting a few on YouTube. Right now I'm working on Chopin's Revolutionary Etude, Rachmaninoff's Prelude in G Minor, a couple of Debussy pieces, and trying to add more in in the limited time I have to practice. I also have a few compositions, which I'm happy to share, but if you're interested I'll do that in DM because that would reveal my real name. And I'm not keen on doing that in public.

Any pointers... hmm. that's really a tough one. I'd say my biggest pointers are: use the right tool for the job. By which I mean get something as close to a real piano as you can. Trying to learn on a casio synth isn't going to do you any good. Find yourself a decent teacher - I can recommend a site in private that has affordable teachers from around the world that I've had decent luck with. And, practice every day. Even if it's not necessarily what you're supposed to practice, practice *something*. You're not going to get good by osmosis, but as long as you practice, you *will* get better, even if it takes months or years. You'll be surprised at what just starts happening. I guess that applies to anything, huh?

And most importantly, enjoy it. When it becomes work, it stops being fun, and then what's the point, really? Work is for what you have to do to eat, hobbies for what you work to be able to do.

I'm currently working on an orchestral composition. I'm making progress but it's slow, I'll let you know when it's done if you want.

Happy New Year to you as well... may next year be better than this one, though that's a pretty low bar.

Some of my best pieces:



Sry if they're 90° on the side^^

Gotta make some new photos first, or dig out & upload older ones, that can take its time... :'-(

Collector of Profile Badges (moderately)? Desktop Buddies, Adoptees? Check. Physical collector of Figures or other Merchandise? Double-check (I'm probably running out of space right now)...

One person or multiple people sent me three messages but they got deleted, either by themselves or the moderators. I'm just assuming they were mad at me or something, idk.

Tjenare! Har ej sett serien så jag har tyvärr ingen åsikt på den. Man blir dock lite småsugen på att kolla på den nu när du har nämnt den, så jag kanske återkommer!

Thanks for the update! It's still on my PTW, I didn't have much time for anime so far this year. Yet I really want to watch one again. Frieren would be a very hot pick, given the raving reviews.

how is Mushishi? been wanting to pick it up someday

Collector of what?

Thanks. I remember sending a friend request because you had such great taste. There are so many I still need to watch from your favorites. Have you made any new favorites lately?
