Hi there! Currently, I’m an undergrad studying physiology and neuroscience in sunny California. Besides anime, I love foreign film, classical guitar, and writing. Sometimes I play RPGs and edit videos (remember, AMVs = Amateurs Making Videos). Ok, not always the case, here’s a pro 5cm per second one. Anyways, I’m relatively new to anime and manga, but I hope to watch/read tons more. My favorite genres include sci-fi, slice-of-life comedies, and psychological series. I’ll re-watch anything that makes me laugh, cry, or think, although my favorite shows generally do all three.
Personal Ratings:
<4 – Below average. Avoid at all costs!
5 – Mediocre/Average. Your run-of-the-mill, generic anime. Defines 'Meh'.
6 – Slightly above average. Had some promise, but fell flat on execution.
7 – Good. Recommendable and overall enjoyable, but has some notable flaws.
8 – Great. All around solid show with minor flaws. Well worth watching.
9/10 – Excellent. The best shows of their genre. Highly recommended.

Hello, just pinging any of the site reviewers who haven't responded yet in the new thread in the mod section - it's an important question/discussion about if the section will proceed as it currently is, so I'm asking for each reviewer to respond there with their thoughts :) thanks!
True to my word (as stated below), I DID watch Beck. It really was a good show, with the exception of the Engrish the Japanese characters used, as well as the equally bad "truly" American character dialogues (also, Beck's voice was clearly made by a human, also horrible :P ). Nonetheless, the characters really made me care about their dreams and aspirations, so I honestly enjoyed the anime as a whole, despite its shortcomings (the animation wasn't that great either, though it did capture the underground stage feeling).
So, that's that, thanks again for the recommendation!! :D
PS: If i hear "Spice" (BECK'S first song) one more time, I'll kill myself. :)
It's been sitting in my hard drive for some time now, I will definitely watch it. Here's your high five (^5)!!
Thanks^^
Konnichiwa!
I think if I tried to review Penguindrum, I would just end up fangirling everywhere and nobody wants that. But I'll give it a shot this summer and see what happens (no time until then >_<)
