Rediscovering My Love for Anime
Hey there! I actually started watching anime when I was 14, but had to drop it during law school because studying and preparing for the bar exam took up all my time. But once I was called to the bar and finally got to do my dream job, I rediscovered my love for anime and have been enjoying it even more in the past 1-2 years! It's been so fulfilling and enjoyable that my other hobbies like baking and shopping just can't compare.
I even caught up on all the new seasons of anime that I missed during university (like Attack on Titan!) and discovered new favorites from between 2015-2021 that I could binge-watch without waiting for weekly releases.
But now that I've caught up on everything I missed, I'm wandering aimlessly through the vast wasteland of mediocre anime, desperately searching for my next great binge.
So, if you know of any anime with amazing art style and great plot (bonus points for unexpected twists!), dont be shy and please drop me a line! I can't stand boring shows. My eyes are hungry for some stunning anime, so don't hold back on your recommendations!
If you happen to recommend an anime that blows my mind, I promise to send you virtual cookies as a token of my gratitude!

I have alot of anime I want to watch but don't know whihc ones ot keep high priority. If you have time, I would appreciat if you look t my other ratings and see how my taste plays a factor. If not, just based on CW which ones stand out to you and how should I balance them in terms of LENGTH and GENRE. They are very mixed.

Alright, I'm not really into those genres like that but I may try it one day. I'm more into anything I find interesting and those genres haven't been in my list.
Yeah I really reccomend vinland saga, its just a masterepice. Espcially the second half of it is just peak fiction.
Yeha it gets much faster. That backstory was important because it introduced the entire narrtaive of the story so the pacing was a bit slow even though I still loved it. After that it gets faster and more fights happen.
Read your Nana Review. The only things you're saying are pretty much:
1) It's soso
2) It's not finished
----> 6/10
That's not a Review, my dude^^
Tell us why...I mean...make some points...write something. What was that? xD
No problem, I also look forward to talking more about anime. I've actually been trying to find an anime to watch lately, do you have any reccomandations?
If you want an anime recommendation from something I didn't see on your list I'd say Steins;Gate. It starts a bit slow but once it gets on, it doesn't stop. You might like it, I personally did quite a lot.
Yeah, glad to see someone else who thinks Tokyo Revengers lost its vibe
I'll reccomend a couple I think are very epic. Kurko no Basket is a great epic sports anime. Also vinland saga is beautiful in terms of epicness but also in themes and story. also code geass and jojo are great as well, first if you want that smart, manipulation hype and jojo if u want pure battle hype.
Anime recommendations - guessing you like Idol shows and performing arts? Here are a few:-
Drama - Showa Genroku Rakugo, March Comes in Like a Lion, Chihayafuru
Sport / Performance - Cheer Boys features male cheerleaders, that anime packed a lot of heart into 12 episodes.
Idol Shows
1. Paripi Koumei (Ya Boy Kongming) - reverse isekai with catchy OP that went viral, great story, music, made me cry. My favorite anime of Spring 2022 (beat DDD narrowly).
2. Eternal Boys - more realistic, very enjoyable, older guys form boy band
3. Phantom of the Idol - this has the best take on "fans" I've seen in any idol anime ever. The nerd fans were more interesting than the idols IMO. I hope this gets a second season so I can see more nerd fan reactions. The animation and songs are average, I just liked this because fandom is rarely explored beyond "ooo he's so cool."
