Anime fan that's perpetually behind on my seasonals. Working on it, though.

Expect posts about anime, music (mostly from Japan) and sometimes games.

How is Train to the End of the World?

As is tradition, I'm behind on my shows (although not all of them, Girls Band Cry, for example). So I didn't get to start this one yet, but I did have it in the list I made in March about what I want to check out.

Huh... it seems that the account @apc is no longer around.

RIP AniMangaPictureChallenge?

@anianimalsmoe @apc I thought I was going crazy or blind. I realized I had forgotten to submit the uniform theme, and I went to search for apc to see what the new theme was. Usually they were the second or third result, but now it was nowhere. I went to my Follows and still nothing. Finally, I went in my own comment history to search for my "Welcome back!" message from a week ago. Gone.

At that point I figured the account was deleted (on purpose or otherwise, that I do not know), and then I found your post.

@anianimalsmoe @apc I just remembered about the first account they used, before AnimangaPictureChallenge was a thing. I can't find that one either. Then that makes this seem as a definitely purposeful thing, since both accounts dissapeared at the same time.

Anyone else find it difficult to start episodes of anime? The reason I'm always so behind is not even because of lack of time. It's just that I find it hard to start watching, and this has been a thing for a while now.

It's not that I no longer like anime, not even close, because once I do start watching an episode, I enjoy it as much as I did before (unless it's an anime I end up dropping because I dislike that specific one, but those are isolated cases). It's not the enjoyment that's gone, but rather the... energy? drive? to actually press play. I'm not sure how to describe it.

Anyone else like this? With anime or otherwise.

@gnitro Could be the paradox of choice, yeah. I know I get that with games.

And it's very annoying, because it's not even the "Oh, but if I watch this, it's a commitment for the next half hour" thing, because I would just go and watch videos on Youtube which, added up, is also half an hour, or maybe more.

@gnitro I actually did use random.org, set from 1 up to however many anime I had with at least 1 episode to watch, for a while sometime last year. Maybe I should get back to doing that.

Naz has convinced me, now thay I've finished Yu-Gi-Oh, to finally pick up The Promised Neverland since she's been reading it a lot.

Apparently I will enjoy it ​:ablobcatpopcorn:​

@Bard The phrasing of that last sentence makes it sound not as if she thinks you will enjoy it, but rather sounds like a threat: "You will enjoy it!" ​:leafeongiggle:​

I haven't listened to every song from Hakos Baelz's new album yet, but La Roja is amazing.

That's going on repeat alongside her Psycho, Drown and Boom. And her Identity with Towa if we count covers too. Bae might just be my favorite, music-wise, from HoloEN. I don't know about overall (if we include the Japanese and Indonesian branches Hololive members), but she's a contender for me, for sure.

Seeing everyone excited about Dungeon Meshi having aired its first episode really makes me want to watch it already. It's on my list on anime to try this season. Only issue is that out of all the fall anime I've started, I've only finished one (Spy x Family Season 2), and even that one I did so literally a minute ago.

I said I wanted to finish as many of the ones I already started before I dive into Winter 2024, but all the posts are making me want to start it now ​:akko_think2:​

Alright, so I'm trying out this place over here again. I come from Urusai.social and I also tried out Sakurajima.social back when it was on Firefish still (sometime during last summer).

Not gonna import anything quite yet, as I'm not sure where I'll stay by the end of these next few days, but I will manually refollow everyone I follow there to populate my Home timeline. I realize I follow less people than I expected, especially give than I'm on the Fediverse since November 2022, so it probably won't take too long. I will also be on the lookout for more people to follow.

Short and quick (re)introduction for people who find this account without knowing me from Urusai. I'm a big anime fan that's been watching, technically, since childhood (stuff like Pokemon, for example), but I consider 2016/2017 to be the year I really started watching, as that's when I started branching into a bunch of different ones, instead of basically just watching Pokemon, Digimon and Inazuma Eleven. Currently watching a lot of anime from Fall 2023 (which I've listed on my profile), but I struggle keeping up, which is why I have yet to start anything from Winter 2024. But anyway, what I usually post is anime stuff (of course), manga stuff, games stuff, and whatever songs I'm currently obsessed with (mainly songs in Japanese).

Thanks youtube for recognizing I am really digging myself back into Vocaloid pit.

Here's a nice song I have not heard because I've been out of Vocaloid for ten years so I am still discovering new old things:

Life Hates Us Now, covered by Mafumafu, produced by Kanzaki Iori: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eq8r1ZTma08

It's about living on despite everything.

@rei@sakurajima.social avatar

@geraineon Fun fact, Kanzaki Iori himself also sang this live at one point.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f9S6ArF5b9k

Granted, I love Mafumafu's version and so I like it more, but Kanzaki Iori's version is definitely worth listening to too.

What should I watch next from my backlog. (Chosen randomly I promise).

Poll will be live for 12 hours, and I'll start watching whatever was chosen tomorrow before I go to work.

@gnitro I didn't check posts for the past day, so I didn't know about this and by extension didn't vote (I'd have voted for Yuru Camp, for what it's worth). But this is actually a pretty cool idea.

I didn't use to have a proper Planning, was usually just kind of a mental notes thing, but I did start adding some stuff recently. Once I add more stuff and once I consider I have enough time to start something new (that or I finish something), I might do this myself.

@rei@sakurajima.social avatar

@gnitro That second paragraph is a mood.

I could theoretically go full random and generate just 1 show and then that's that. But generating 5 and making a poll sounds fun!
