I've never quite been able to give up anime because it's a great way to keep the child in me alive. The child in me happens to be Sakura Kinomoto; the adult in me is turning day by day into Eva Heinemann. So you see the need.
My anime time includes writing reviews for Anime UK News and co-presenting what is arguably the UK's best anime podcast (I'm not biased or anything...) Nakama Britannica. The latest episode is an interview with Andrew Partridge of Scotland Loves Anime fame. As for my tastes, I can forgive most flaws if a show offers well-crafted characters, and I sometimes watch shows just because nobody else has. Lastly, if you're looking for something fun to do, why not join in the awesome forum club, Find Your Anime Buddy! Go on… you know you want to.

Viv! Are you wathing Game of Thrones? (you should be)
Holy crap! Its been well over a year! I almost forgot about this site. I just really got distracted I guess. Mostly by other shows (Game of Thrones, Archer, Community, Parks and Rec, Walking Dead, Breaking Bad, Futurama, etc).
Really the only reason I got back into the anime was learning that Crunchyroll was available on XBox Live. Started watching Attack on Titan and Flowers of Evil. And I don't care what people say about Flowers, it (so far) is really great. So much personality. The rotoscope animation, the minimilistic soundtrack. Love it.
I see you gave me recomendations in one of your last comments to me, and of them AnoHana was the only one I watched. What a nice, sweet show it was. I will try to catch up. How are you doing?
Wanna see something really awesome?
Since your also quite fond of Pluto, you'll definitely enjoy this great fandub:

Brau's even more freaky than he usually is oO
Have a nice weekend
Glad to see you are enjoying it :). I really love the show but at the same time I feel it could have been so much more. That and 22 episodes is too short to bring out its full potential. My feelings about ending are mixed so I'm really wondering what you'll think of the last episode.
Konnichiwa!
Yeah, I disappeared for a bit. Now I get to play catch up, but I don't seem to have missed anything other than Psycho-Pass and FtNW.
Basically I blame my watching GoT on the lack of interesting anime lately. Well, that and because these eyebrows are on one of the main characters' faces: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emilia_Clarke (SWOON). I've only read the first 2, but I'm preeeeetty sure Martin said there will only be seven- though the man is taking his sweet time writing them, so I guess it's possible he'll up and die before then. Personally I'd find that hilarious- fanboy rage is the best, and I've never been bothered much by perma-cliffhangers.
