I know I'm late, but I wish you had a happy birthday yesterday

You should watch Kaji is a great psycholigical gambling anime and Gintama has one of the best written protagonist.

thanks for the link

Hello :D

I really like your list design, may I know how u made it?

It was fine. I know I wasted soo much time though, there's so much more I could've accomplished, unrelated to the lockdown.

Happy new year!

How was 2020 for you? If you could look past the pandemic, although it may be difficult for you, what would you say?

Hello! How are you? As you can see I've changed my username but I will change it again lol

Just in case you didn't receive a notification, I replied to the PM you sent me with your short story. I'm sorry for the late reply :(

Since you said you like to analyse Anime, I'm really interested in knowing what your rating system is!

I see that you are rewatching FLCL , for me rewatching FLCL made it
became one of my top 5 favourite anime, how is the rewatch going so far?

Apart from that, I think I have a live-action film to recommend, The seventh seal directed and written by Ingmar Bergman ,
if you don't mind black and white, is an excellent commentary on death, with stellar cinematography and a great script.

This response is probably coming in late, so excuse my absence from the site.
If you want my honest opinion, there really aren't many anime shows that actually care about exploring philosophical concepts, let alone differentiate movements. I guess fans enjoy labeling their favorite series as "philosophical" because it feels like it adds imaginary merit to the work, when in reality they just tackle subjects that exceed the ones of your usual TV show. This might seem like a controversial opinion, but if you seriously want to see art's relationship with philosophy, I think other, older, more mature mediums will much more suit your taste. Mostly because the mediums themselves matured from sculpting themselves to suit the audience into actually serving as a way of expressing ideas.
Now I'm not particularly a huge nerd for literature so I guess recommending books as a medium would be pretentious of me, even though it's probably the best way to go. I think painting/sculpting and music care the most about philosophy, as they lived and developed hand in hand.
I'm currently obsessed with film which, albeit new as a medium, has a LOT of pieces well worth your time.

I hope this answer helps you in some way, even though it's coming awfully late.

Friend request accepted!

I totally agree about Wolf Children!

Go ahead & send your story!
You're studying Chemistry? well, I thought that was one of the hardest subjects I've done in highschool even though I found it quite interesting, so ofcourse I made sure to completley avoid it when choosing a college course, since I knew that even if it wasn't all THAT difficult in highschool, it would only get worse in college.
But I hope you're enjoying it!

I would love to know why you Wolf children is one of your favourites.

I don't have a discord tag. The reason you weren't able to send a PM is because you need to add me as a friend first.

Oh, I would love to read your works!! If you don't mind sharing them ofcourse.
Are you enjoying Mushishi so far?

Well, if I had to choose from my favourites list, Mushishi is currently my number 1. Others would be with Wolf children, Konnichiwa Anne, Barakamon & Your lie in april. But keep in mind when I watched these my ratings were mostly based on enjoyment, which is partly why I'm re-watching them.
Which ones of these have you seen? what are your thoughts?

According to your age, you would be in college now? What are you studying? if you dont mind me asking.

How good is Kaiba so far, is at the level of other yuasa works like ping pong o tatami galaxy??

It's not often I find avid rewatchers, most on the forums don't seem to consider it. I often have more fun experiencing the story a second or third time, especially now that I can watch all of my old favorites in full HD. My latest joys have been discovering all these Blu-ray remasters that have been released in the past few years.

I definitely have a preference for action. Doesn't matter how crummy, if it has decent action I'm probably watching it.

Hello my fellow midwesterner. Looks like you're watching a lot of great titles. Though like me trying to watch 20 all at once. Are you a big re-watcher like I am?
