What does your average day look like?

Also, btw, did you read up on that swimsuit fashion show in Saudi?

>>its still stuck on my onhold till this day lol so u think the older version is better? i might go with the older one if the new one didnt adapt or cover anything different 🤔
Yeah, the old version is among my fav iyashikei ever! It is very slow though, so if you don't have enough patience for it, it might not be for you. But other than that, it's amazing! Also, the new version is more faithful to the manga since it starts from the beginning, which is good cause I plan to read it too after the anime ends haha. I don't even drink yet I like this show so much lol.

>>im so excited to see whats gonna happen now that the prince went to meet his brother lol do u think his brother really wants to take the prince’s place? i think hes plotting something but not sure if its really against the prince 🤔
Honestly, I can't tell what he's thinking, he is so hard to read haha. I also don't know what to think about Atsufusa wanting Wakamiya to ascend the throne... But anyways, I kinda like Hamayuu and how bold she is, though I wonder what her secret is :o

>>nah that cat is tiny and adorable but the rest of the youkais tend to be huge lol
Ohh I think I mistook it for another show xD There was one with a huge black cat last season or the season before iirc, so I thought it got a sequel lmao.

>>i agree suo’s ep is my fav so far <3 im usually not very fond of tsunderes but ure right the mc is adorable especially when he blushes at the slightest hint of compliment lol
Haha yep, I'm not a big fan of tsunderes either but it's nice to see one who's not a girl ^^; The last episode was pretty entertaining too, Suo is still the best but the guy with the medicine is pretty cool too ngl haha

>>oh wow this lowkey made me wanna pick it up again just to see what would happen ngl lolll can u let me know how weird exactly it gets later when u finish it? lol
Will do! The way the main guy acts is already weird, so I'm just wondering how much worse can it get xD

Did I ever ask you what you do IRL?

But then, isn't it also frustrating and disappointing how you're never able to enjoy 90% of the stuff you commit to watch?

>>i checked all the shows u mentioned here. i still need to catch up with bartender but its soo hard to binge lol i’ll get to it eventually when i finish catching up w the rest. lemme know how Shuumatsu Train ends cuz im lowkey curious abt it but got too many shows atm to include it too
Yeah Bartender isn't really for binging haha. Have you seen the old one? I liked that a little bit more, but the new one is very enjoyable as well.
Shuumatsu Train is definitely one of my favs this season, it's so creative but has that mystery to it has well. Kind of like Girls Last Tour, if you know that anime

>>finished catching up w Karasu wa Aruji wo Erabanai and it exceeded my expectations. i thought it would be another boring show where multiple girls compete against each other to become the next empress but apparently more than that. probably the show im interested in the most out of this season.
Omg same! After 2 eps I was already surprised how different it is from what I expected xD It was such a pleasant surprise haha. The characters aren't one dimensional and the plot is really engaging so far. The prince is so childish sometimes tho, poor Yukiya lol.

>>i remember Tonari no Youkai san’s first ep was surpassingly interesting. i still need to catch up tho to fully judge. hopefully it gets even better
Ah is it the one with the huge cat? xD

>>btw i checked The Fable and sadly it wasnt as good or hilarious as i hoped it would be so ure not missing out at all lol
Good to know, the anime doesn't look good at all xD

>>speaking of disappointing shows, Kaii to Otome to Kamikakushi was extremely disappointing :/ the fanservice was so off putting i couldnt keep watching. hope we get better mysteries this year :(
Oh god, I also checked the first ep but the fanservice made me uncomfortable. That was super disappointing, especially because we don't get many mysteries >.<

>>highfiiiive im interested in the eyepatch dude as well haha yep i agree w u the plot is kinda cheesy but the characters are fun so i’ll keep watching
The last ep was my fav, Suo finally got more screentime haha. The mc is really funny too, it's so refreshing to see male tsunderes lol

>>was gonna skip it from the very beginning but i was trying to be patient loll i can totally see why u didnt wanna keep watching it lol
Okay this is gonna sound weird but someone said it gets even weirder, so I'll keep watching for now to see what's gonna happen xD As long as I'm still curious I'd say it's a good thing lmao

It really depends, you know. I have a short attention span so unless something really holds my interest (or if it's something inoffensive), then I usually drop said series, or will watch like one episode every several days. I've now begun to drop series instead of pushing myself to watch shit that clearly doesn't interest me. I don't care if it "gets better". It's shit now and I'm not gonna wade through shit just to look at the rainbow.

Yeah, I don't remember when the last time I went to the theater was. Apart from being time consuming, movie watching experience is pretty expensive. Right from car parking fees to your popcorn and cold drink prices - everything put together is 34x the price of your tickers. And that's not including the amount of petrol you wasted reaching the mall.

Wow, so you're worse than me. That's good to know lol. So if you sat down to watch a 12 episode anime (all eps aired) how long would it take you to finish them? How about a Hollywood series or movie? Do you watch them in parts as well?
Does that mean you don't go to the theater at all?

Heyy, welcome back :D

>>im excited to check the new shows and catch up w everythign :3 did u find any good shows/hidden gems so far?
Well, so far the ones I'm looking forward to the most are Bartender, Girls Band Cry (it's so good even though it is cg, but the story and characters keep me interested haha), Shuumatsu Train Doko e Iku? (I actually recommend this to you as well, it's so weird but in a good way?? Like, the first ep was very bizarre but so full of mystery and when they decide to go on an adventure I was sure I'd really enjoy this! This one's definitely a hidden gem for me :3)
What about you? :D

>>ah didnt know it was abt delinquents im gonna lower my expectations then lol im excited nevertheless lol
Yup, of course we need to have one deliquent show per season haha. I'm interested in the characters for this one, like the eyepatch one and the white haired leader :3 The story is a bit ridiculous, but the characters make it a worthwhile watch for now xD

>>i might check the first ep just to see why u wanted to drop it loll
I noticed you've dropped it already xD Guess you understand why I said that now haha

>>ooo i was wondering why i didnt notice this when i checked the seasonals turned out its ONA lol sounds interesting i will check it out when im in the mood for binging something
Yeah, the first 3 eps were interesting but after that I wasn't as invested. Not worth watching unless you're really in the mood for some episodic shows lol.

>>sameeee but i consider AOTY for 2023 and not this one lol i still need 2024 anime to impress me lol ahhh i really hope we at least get a sequel announcement i need more frieren :(((
Oh wait, I forgot Frieren started airing last year 😅 I'm not sure which one's gonna be AOTY this year haha. But yeah, hope we get an announcement soon!

>>so tragic what happened to them ughh once again i really hate miscommunication but i guess in their case it was just unfortunate. im glad it ended well tho,, kinda.. but yeah it was bittersweet i love it. im curious abt ur thoughts on the ending too, what did u think of it?
Yeah, miscommunication usually annoys me too but in this case there was nothing they could do. I'm also glad she was lucky enough to be kept there even when she couldn't work anymore because I remember them mentioning how women were thrown on the streets when they were no longer useful. Guess it could've been even worse than it was... But yeah, I liked their story too! So excited for next season haha.

WDYM "keep up"
Seasonals?

So you don't watch aired anime at all? Because I can't tolerate waiting one week for one episode. I'd forget what I'd watched the previous week

What happened? Why did you take a break from MAL? Got bored of watchin anime?

Ah, I assumed you just got dragged to places you didn't want to go to, and that's why you have so little spare time. But if you enjoy yourself, well, I guess it's difficult to do everything you like in the span of 24 hours, right? It's the same with many people, so most just pick and choose what they want the most v/s which activity is the most convenient for them to do

Well, well, well. Look who's risen from the dead. Are you back for good or will I still have to wait 2 months to get a response from you?



My back is better, thank you for asking. It was a painful one month, though.

> this can be done w work related stuff and such but how do u manage ur time when ure socializing especially since most of these gatherings are spontaneous
Lol. Learn to say no.

>>The Fable: probably the one i look forward to the most lol i have no idea whats this about but checked the pv and it looks hella fun im super excited lol
Oh, let me know if the anime is funny! I dropped the manga but maybe I wasn't in the right mood back then.
>>Kaijuu 8-gou: another fun pv so im checking the first ep
It is made by Production I.G so it should be pretty solid!
>>Kaii to Otome to Kamikakushi: mysteryyyyy idk if its gonna be good or not tho but im def checking the first ep hope it entertains us this year :3
Ohh same here! We really need some good mystery this year ngl, hope it's good haha
>>Ookami to Koushinryou: Merchant Meets the Wise Wolf: ive been meaning to watch the old one. idk if this is gonna be a sequel or a remake but if its the latter im gonna watch it
It's a remake apparently! Just watched the first ep, seems like it's gonna have 20+ eps so hope it will be fun :D I haven't seen the old one either, so this is gonna be new to me too.
>>Bartender: Kami no Glass: this one as well lol i have the old one on my on hold list for yrs but if this one is a remake then i will just watch it lol
Oh it's a remake as well! This one follows the manga more closely, but the old one was amazing too. I'm super excited for this one actually :3
>>Wind Breaker: i have no idea whats this abt but the manga been recommended to me so i’ll check an ep since we got an anime adaptation
This one reminds me of Tokyo Revengers a bit, I have to watch the first ep too and see what I'll think of it. I'm guessing it should look good since it's made by Cloverworks!

>>most likely some more but these are the ones that caught my attention when i quickly checked the new seasonals. what about u? are there any new shows ure looking forward to?
Besides the ones we've mentioned, I'm also checking out:
My Hero Academia S7
Hananoi-kun to Koi no Yamai (seemed like a cute romance but after the first ep I might drop it lol)
Yoru no Kurage wa Oyogenai (based on the synopsis it's gonna be fun and it's made by the same studio as Oshi no Ko)
Shuumatsu Train Doko e Iku? (the synopsis intrigued me and it's such a weird show, gonna continue for now)
Karasu wa Aruji wo Erabanai (this one's gonna have 20 eps apparently, but the story seems interesting so it better be worth it haha)
Girls Band Cry (maybe this one will be like Bocchi the Rock in a way, so I'm gonna try the first ep)
Grimm Kumikyoku (original + Wit studio, of course I'm checking it out)

>>cant believe how the writer managed to show us a badass fern and an even more badass frieren goshhh i got goosebumps watching the latest ep this anime keeps exceeding my already high expectations i feel so lucky to have this extremely well done adaptation <3
Ahh I swear it's gonna be a crime if they don't continue! Frieren is AOTY for me right now, I doubt anything can top it. But we'll see because not even half of this year passed yet haha.

>>aaaaa i hope sooooo im gonna believe in ur superpower( o̴̶̷̥᷄ ̫ o̴̶̷̥᷅ ) i really want a sequel preferably w the same OP/ED artists as well :333
It will happen! Definitely will happen ( •̀ᄇ• ́)ﻭ✧

>>i love it when he sulks and gets jealous hes so adorable ahhahah ikr if i were him id just take the money and solve my issue lol luckily for him she seems into him and willing to wait so its probably gonna work for these two :3
Ikr? What's the problem with taking his money if it's gonna solve the issue xD I guess he is too prideful for that.
How did you like the ending btw? I'm super happy we're getting a second season <3

>>btw Shiro im gonna be inactive for a couple of weeks/months (hopefully less) so excuse my late reply in advance ^^ take care and stay healthy <3
Ah alright, no worries! Looking forward to hearing from you again :3 Take care <33

I apply the manga rule to anime as well - I ascertain the importance of skipped panels/scenes by the expressions on the face of the characters involved. In anime, there is also music that helps you understand whether or not you skipped something important. For example, if it's a comedy series and the music becomes suddenly tense after I skipped 5 minutes worth of content, I know I have to forward back to the point where things became serious. It's kinda tedious, but also the easiest way to power through an anime without missing out on much. Sometimes, I also refer to fan wikis online to help fill in the gaps of the content I may have missed while streaming. I use it for Hollywood series, though. I doubt anime has detailed plot analysis of every episode.

> but for some reason i cant balance social life and hobbies idk why :/
That's nothing but poor time management. I'm pretty sure you focus too much on certain things and too little on other things. Keep our specific days or timings for tasks you want to accomplish, prepare a time-chart and then see if you're unable to do the things you really want to do!

Okay, but a break from anime doesn't mean a break from MAL :(
