was tagged by @podcastingpineapple for a “9 people I'd like to know better” thing! hi hello!👋 i don’t think im one of the cool people but i like doing these sooooo (runs away and hides and comes back hours later) (ive decided i have nothing to lose so im just gonna give honest answers)
last song: super star spectacle (karen and hikari’s song from the revue starlight movie)(was listening in honor of yuri day)
currently watching: ummm seasonal anime mostly: skip to loafer, gundam witch, oshi no ko. also star wars rebels for amca podcast (but i accidentally got carried away and am a season ahead already)
currently reading: i’m rereading shimanami tasogare/ our dreams at dusk by kamatani yuhki. ive started to do this every summer, it always hits home around this time of the year. i am also reading a number of enstars stories at once (i guess sudden death would be the most noteworthy here). i know neither of these is like reading reading but this is where i’m at!
(i’m adding a secret bonus category of currently listening to just to say that i’ve been enjoying my archive 81 relisten~)
current obsession: uuuuuuu. well it’s enstars. theres just so many characters and so many things to know about them my brain feels like it’s jumping up and down on a trampoline (positive), plus theres the rhythm game aspect. it is so much fun. im having so much fun right now
plus the new palisade episode dropping is my favorite time of the week! and amca every two weeks.
okayyy tagging people… no pressure though!!

Let’s talk about Romance Mangas!
My say to those I have read and loved: (not ranked)
1. This Manga hurts my heart. I read it while on high school and it kinda hit me with how lonely I am because I never had an Ayane-chan and Chizuru-chan, and Kazehaya-kun to downright change my life to better. But I did enjoy those time because I had romance manga to begin with. Kimi Ni Todoke might be the one that get me into read romance mangas. I liked it because I somewhat relate to Sawako, being outcasted and all. I grew to love their story, and found myself hoping that maybe love will come to me too.
Kimi Ni Todoke (From Me to You)
2. In this spin off featuring Kurumizawa Ume (a character from Kimi Ni Todoke) and Sawako’s cousin Eiji Akahoshi, my hope for meeting love blooms even greater. They were soulmates as the title suggests so they were literally speed, but then I haven’t read the latest chapters yet because I can’t find them (if anyone know, pls let me know). As I was saying, they literally skipped the slow burn but still works because we can now root for the former second leads. (Yes, Eiji is from another romance manga from the same author: Crazy for Love)
Kimi Ni Todoke: Soulmate
3. What do you do when you accidentally married a man twice your age?? Some may not want age gap romance, especially when the age gap is 20 years, but you might change your mind reading this manga. It’s wholesome and you can actually find yourself smiling and rooting for their relationship to work. This manga has been going on the internet, it’s popular so you may had heard of it, it’s where I heard of it, so I think I don’t have to had any say except I enjoyed it and I am finding or accepting manga recs similar to this.
Gomashio to Pudding (Sesame Salt and Pudding)
4. WHOLESOME IS THE WORD. This manga is fresh breath of air. I’m pretty sure most of you guys have heard of it as it’s one of this month’s anime. I just love how cute they are in each chapter, even the other couples. And I thoroughly enjoy Himuro’s monologue. :)) If you guys were bothered by random pacings, you should watch the anime instead. They swept up the plot.
Koori Zokusei Danshi to Cool na Douryou Joshi (The Ice Guy and His Cool Female Colleague)
5. Wahhhh this is really addictive, I can’t stop myself from thinking that the whole time I am reading. A combination of slice of life, comedy, and romance genre, huh. Who knows it will all work beautifully as in this masterpiece. (Also, Sousuke Shima’s character design reminds me a bit of Miura Kento from Kimi Ni Todoke)
Skip and Loafer
6. HOT. I have no other words. Some may misunderstand though. But it’s what I think of it, like will you look at them!!! They’re attacking me. I hope we got to see how their relationship progress soon. Btw, I’m all in for Ichi, I’m sorry dear Oji.
Uruwashi no Yoi no Tsuki (In the Clear Moonlit Dusk)
Aaaand I just rumbled my thoughts on the last part. I may edit it for a more serious discussion later. Thanks! :)))

If it's not too much trouble, could I ask about some anime you'd recommend? I have temporary access to Crunchyroll and I finished the thing I originally wanted to watch but I don't want to be "waste" the remaining time I have, and I remember a lot of times seeing you talk about an anime you were enjoying and going "when I can I should watch that", but now that I can I can't remember most of them outside of like, Bofuri and Bocchi the Rock.
Bocchi is so good, though!
EDIT: Shangri-La Frontier, which I originally didn’t mention because I just had a big post on it.
Spy X Family is really good, though there are episodes that are more slice of life than action (which isn’t a bad thing, I just know it catches some off-guard, and not everyone likes it). Also, there’s a lot of it with over 30 episodes.
The very high-production value Apothecary Diaries is fun mixed with some pretty heavy subject matters.
Frieren is good, though be prepared for emotional punches to the face.
Skip and Loafer is an exceptionally chill anime with very emotionally real characters. As much as I like it, though, I sometimes forget it exists (but am happy when I have that “oh yeah!” moment.
Campfire Cooking In Another World is a relaxing fun one, though a not-insignificant amount of run time is cooking and eating (it’s cute and chill, but still).
If looking for absolute absurdity, Nichijou is an option.
Life With An Ordinary Guy Who Reincarnated As A Total Fantasy Knockout starts a bit slow in episode one, but is hilarious by episode two.
Mob Psycho is a fascinating comedy anime.
The first season of My Next Life As A Villainess is one of my favorites, though that’s partly due to timing. I started reading the manga when I really, REALLY needed a pick-me-up, and the protagonist is basically one of my brain cells now.

“If you ever find a goal for yourself, then, succeed or fail, we'll go anywhere you want and eat some good food!"
Forget-me-nots
Loyalty, long lasting bonds, promises, true love
Blue - Growth, healing, communication
Pink - Playfulness, joy, delicateness
Primroses
New beginnings, young love, femininity, safety & protection, sweet memories
Yellow - Happiness, warmth, always being there for you, friendship
New fandom alert! I really loved the anime season of Skip and Loafer, watched it a few months ago, and finally had the time to sit down now that convention season is over and knock out some art based on the opening. It was so full of life, flowers, colour, I needed to get them drawn in those outfits and with the matching flower associations! I am definitely considering more flowers for them and a mosaic in the future, since I'm starting the manga now. Flower language aside, the characters are really realistic and likeable.
Hope to make these two into charms in the future, stay tuned!
