A final paper for a English variety, a 600 word essay about a graphic novel, and a 500 word cultural essay. I didn't really want to use ChatGPT, it would be too obvious.

yeah it is :/ but id be even more frustrated wasting time watching mediocres thats why i only commit to the 10% truly enjoyable shows even if theyre rare and hard to find

Of course! It's a hard live on this earth. But a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do. Asking for leniency doesn't cost anything, so I might as well try. Either way, we're both human beings, flaws and all. You don't have to do this, if you don't want to.

I had to scour the convo to check what message I forgot to reply too 😭,
well no after that message I tried to find the answer everywhere but couldnt coz that manga was not well known ig, and then I got busy with an exam (its over now) so yeah...
I apologize for doing that

5 years is ages ago to me. Even a year ago feels like an age

Of course, who doesn't have secrets? I have a few of them.

Bigger and better than an FBI agent, you say. Hmm. Don't tell me you applied to become a Discord moderator!? I would bow before your majesty, but my knee is hurting a bit.

Recreational purposes. I think. Maybe.
It might be extremely suspicious, but why would I reveal all my secret intentions? Otherwise, it wouldn't be fun for the FBI agent assigned to me. Or maybe you are the FBI agent, considering how you are fishing for my secrets. It seems like you are the suspicious one.

50 years for resisting arrest?!? There's no way that's the legitimate number! Look, I might have overstepped some boundaries here, but can't we just agree that this offence wasn't all that bad? We're both sensible persons here. Won't you just look the other way while I "accidentally" get away? Nobody will ever find out about it.

Omg thank you for the wish, very much appreciate it , I dont think I know the answer to the question you asked tho 😭

I scored it an 8 at the time, I watched it when it first released though which was ages ago

You have read a lot of manga, that's amazing! Have you been reading manga since a long time?
Manga is a better fit for my current life schedule bc I can breeze through chapters faster than I can watch anime episodes. Committing to a few manga chapters a day feels manageable and keeps me engaged without overwhelming me, which is why I haven't taken a break from it nowadays.
Personally, I think both manga and anime offer unique experiences, and it's impossible to compare them directly because they're entirely different mediums, each appealing in its own right. When they're good, they're good.

Sorry for the late reply, and hopefully, you've been having a wonderful week!

ty ty. i like your dedication to documenting quotes

It's fine lol we're all "wired" differently anyway. I don't know if it's dedication or not, but I guess it's something along those lines, yeah.

Well, March used to be like this: a lot of snow, slowly melting and with many streams running everywhere. When I was a kid, we even used to make ships from foam and matches, or just matches, and they them for races in such streams :p in spring, as opposed to summer or autumn, it was particularly interesting to do such races because of all the "obstacles" in the streams, like blocks of ice or snow + there often used to be several possible routes your ship could take, increasing or decreasing its chances of reaching the goal :) these days, I'd say that March is pretty erratic: either there is little to no snow or, in rarer cases, it's just like winter. It used to slowly transition into April and then May, where the snow would be gone pretty much entirely. I guess what I'm trying to say is that there is no "progressive spring" like it used to be: it's very "jumpy", going back from too warm to too cold (mostly too warm). This year April was warmer than May is lol May is pretty cold. Total chaos and confusion. It just feels like there is no spring whatsoever, considering that April and May are usually very warm, like a colder version of summer.

Yeah, I've noticed that in some countries the weather cycles are shifting, but I'm not sure if here is the same. The most glaring changes affect spring. I guess summers got hotter and winters warmer? It's honestly hard to say for sure because it's different each year. I can only state that spring is very visibly fucked up compared to how it used to be lol and autumn is the most "stable" season. You always know what to expect from the good old autumn :p

I guess humidity also plays a huge role, but 50C sounds scary anyway :) and it's not only me simply not liking summers. I often start getting headaches when it's very hot and just want to sleep all the time, so it affects my ability to do anything. I'm no doctor, but my hypothesis is this: since I naturally have a slightly lower blood pressure than your average person, it gets even lower during hot weather, so I may have somewhat less tolerance towards heat. But maybe it's not connected at all and the reason is entirely different - no idea.

I refuse! This sounds too fishy for me. First, you accuse me of wanting to film the transaction or trying to shadow you, but now you want MY info and address? How could I be sure you're a real officer and not just some fake?

Especially when it comes to sexual harassment and assault of female characters. It's still played off as a joke in 2024, when the rest of the world has moved way beyond this problematic portrayal

oh yeah this is a real problem. i'm not sure if it's a function of japan where they're okay with this, but so many 'gags' that actually stem from a real problem still seem to get serialized without anyone batting an eyelid. then again at the receiving end everyone seems to be okay with it so they're able to get away with it.

With BL, I can finish a manga in an hour and decide if I liked it or not. With anime, I have to trudge through at least 3-4 hours worth of content to decide whether it's worth my time. It usually isn't, which is why I have such a high Drop list

this. right here. because same. i find myself reading manga much more than watching anime because i'm able to do everything at my own pace. sure there is no background music and you hear the voice acting and all that, but i'm still able to appreciate the series in my own way. and the fact that i can just take my phone out and read a couple of chapters wherever i am sells it for me.

What does that mean?

this is just a personal opinion but i find reading doujin to be so much more better than watching. it just feels like they're overdoing it all the time. with reading, i get to decide everything and i kind of like that freedom.
