Gensan also a previous username.
So where do I start? Well I guess the first thing I can say about myself is I've been a fan of anime for quite a few years now and one of the first animus I watched was pretty much the dubbed version of Inuyasha. Like most people, I grew up with the typical fare as a kid seeing series like Pokemon, Dragonball, Digimon etc on TV then discovered subbed anime on the interwebs and my repertoire expanded in the process.
As for personal taste, I'll watch almost anything but I have a pretty big craving for tragic and depressing stories laced with cynicism, think of Urobuchi's stuff as an example. Although it can't be tragedy just for the sake of it and it has to be well-founded. The only genres I think that are a big turn off for me and find most of the time flat-out boring boil down to Ecchi, Harem, anything to do with Feudal Japan and Mecha. But yeah, all the others are perfectly fair game.
Also, I'm a pretty avid gamer and I especially love visual novels. Some of my favourites there include: The Ace Attourney Series, Zero Escape, Umineko, Corpse Party and the Tales franchise but that's just barely scratching the surface. And finally as a general rule of thumb for me, just about anything made from Atlus is made of win and awesome. Insanely difficult games? I love those to death.
My rating scale:
3 stars:Alright
3.5 stars:Solid entertainment and reccommendable
4 stars:Awesome
4.5 stars:Brilliant, very few flaws if any
5 stars:Perfection
Basically anything below 3 stars to me fall under the mediocre or god awful category.
Disclaimer: All my ratings are my own subjective interpretation so take it with a grain of salt

Hello Gens! It's been a long time (since ALG Spring 2022)! How's the song/music thread doing on the forum?
After a four year hiatus, I decided to do another Anime Ichiban Awards for the anime I watched in 2022. It is finally finished! I kept it simpler while adding more individual detail. Please feel free to check it out and let me know what you think, if you want to!
2023 Personal Anime Ichiban 🏆 Awards List (3rd Quasi-annual)
If you do not, then that is completely OK by me as well. I am just excited to have finally done the awards again. Take care!

Hi.
I know this is random, but I've actually been meaning to ask you if you could possibly give me some Japanese music recommendations. I've tried asking a couple of other users, but I haven't heard from one since July, and the other is only knowledgeable on anime OP's and ED's. Well, I love several OP's and ED's myself, but I'd like to branch more out, if that makes sense. xD
I do listen to some Visual Kei, J-Rock, and J-Pop, but I can't stand most screaming & growling type vocals, ironic as that might sound lol. I know very little J-Rap or Japanese Hip-hop, but what I've heard so far, I kinda liked.
Anyway, these aren't all of them, but here are some examples of what I'm into: Gackt, Nightmare, Sid, Malice Mizer, D/Asagi, Atsushi Sakurai, Kamijo, Hyde, Lar'c en ciel, Hige Dandism, Kanaboon, Fujika, Plastic Tree, Hide from X-Japan, Dead End, Der Zibet.
Again, not all of them, but ones that I'm NOT into: Nocturnal Bloodlust, Mejibray (except for one song of theirs), Dadorama, Dir en Gray.
Anyway, I hope that helps! You can send me the YouTube recs via PM, whenever. :)
Have a good weekend!
Is your profile picture Undyne by any chance?
Hi there.
I recently came accross the ALG posted by you. The idea seems so interesting, but I don't really spend much time on this site. Then, I began to wonder. Where you the one that came with this? If not, do you know how it came to be? (it's history) I'm interested in making a version of it on another site, but I want to know about it before I do (will also link back to the current season thread, but if there's an archive or main post or something, that might help/be better).
=)
