Hello, everyone.

I am the mom & full-time caregiver to a wonderful daughter who is on the Autism Spectrum.
She recommended this site to me since a couple of her special interests are anime & manga, and she's been wanting me for several years now to get into this sort of stuff with her more.

The first manga that I discovered thanks to my daughter, back in around 2019, was Yona of the Dawn. Oh, and I watched the anime too, and it's really good. However, when it comes to manga in general, it hurts my eyes if I read for too long, so I much prefer anime.

When my daughter was very little, I'd watch some scenes of Pokemon with her. Never got into Digimon though. Sorry.

Some anime that I like that she introduced me to are Naruto, Naruto Shippuden, Fairy Tail, Yugioh, My Roomate is a Cat, Pokemon, Aria the Animation series, Emma: A Victorian Romance, & Polar Bear's Cafe.

My daughter got me hooked on Studio Ghibli movies years ago, and my current favorites are Spirited Away, Howl's Moving Castle, Kiki's Delivery Service, and Ponyo. However, that doesn't mean that I've seen every movie by Ghibli lol.

I would say that I'm still very new to the anime/manga world though, so please forgive me if I'm not aware of certain things, or if I ask the same questions over & over again.

My favorite genre's are fantasy, romance, comedy, cooking, baking, relaxing type shows, and romantic comedy. However, when it comes to genre's and things that I DON'T like, that is: Dark Fantasy & Dark, crude, gross type comedy, blood, gore, explicit sex, anything that's considered Satanic/sacreligious, explicit violence, and tons of nudity.

I'm not really what young people call a "gamer" per-se, (I did play more than I do now, years ago, but certain circumstances happened, and well, I just don't really have time anymore for them) but I do love watching my daughter who IS a gamer, play them, especially when it comes to Skyrim. I LOVE Skyrim lol. Sadly, these days she doesn't play it anymore as she's into different things now, but she'll help me with Story of Seasons: Olive Town sometimes.

I rarely come on here anymore due to life related reasons (thus I'm still a major newbie to the site, and need tons of help lol) but when I do, it's mainly to have my daughter help me update on what I've watched/read, etc. So if I don't respond to any comments or questions, please don't be upset.

If I rate something 3 stars, that means I tried to like it, but it either got too boring or too weird for me. 4 stars and higher means I love it lol. Under 3 stars means I didn't care for it.

I REALLY prefer (read need lol) English Dubbed versions of anime, because it hurts my eyes to read subtitles after awhile, and it's hard to pay attention to what's happening on screen if I try to read subtitles at the same time. But if I find something REALLY interesting like From Me to You, I may try to make an exception.

Okay, thank you so much for reading my bio, and I hope you all have a blessed, wonderful day/evening.

So happy that you're thinking about watching Paradise Kiss, and that you liked the Live-Action trailer! :D

I don't think you'll like it as well as Nana, but that's ok!

Well, you don't know certain people like I do, but I appreciate the sentiment, nonetheless. It's true a lot of people are too busy, but that's to be expected, I guess.

Yes... A particular user "joked" about my rating for Code Geass a few weeks ago, and still hasn't told me why, or apologized to me. 😒😐😔 I really don't want to say who exactly, but it is one of your new forum followers. So anyway, yeah, that's the reason why I put what you're talking about in my bio, so no one can "joke" about my ratings ever again. (You know why I use air quotes for the word joke, right?) That's part of why I've been in a bad mood irl. I tried to act like it didn't get to me, but in reality it did, since no one has commented negatively about my ratings in a long time.

Anyway, thank you, and I hope the same for you. :)

I watched Pretty Woman several days ago, and thought it was ok. You were right, you definitely need to give it your full on attention if you"re to understand everything. (Which I could not, due to attention span issues.) I'm not saying it's a bad movie, but I will have to watch it on tv next time, instead of on my tablet, where the audio is quieter for some reason...

Boy, am I glad I have you to talk about movies with, since no one else on Anime Planet seems to like to with me. 😢😭

Hey. I know you're going through stuff, but I just wanted to let you know that I finished the Koala anime that you recommended me. :) It was pretty cute, though some of the character's actions & negative personality switches were kinda grating. I'm debating on starting Code Geass despite not being able to finish it in time for Christmas, but we'll see...

On a side note, I PM'd a couple of nice forum folks about my medical emergency, and why I've been too stressed to frequent the forums again, but I did mention that I'll be back there by Christmas. :) Afterwards though, I think I'm just gonna "lurk" like I always do, that way that one user doesn't make fun of me again, if that was his true intent...

Welp, Merry Christmas, and I pray that you feel better soon. <3

Forgot to mention it in my last comment, but I thought about asking someone from there, but as you said, it's rather hard for me to start conversations with others, especially if I don't know them well/we haven't spoke much to each other.

Plus I feel like since I only watch movies on certain platforms, and I won't watch anything I'm uncomfortable with, I feel like I'd just be a burden... Plus they're all busy with other things anyway, so there's that. There is a movie buff in the forums, but the last time he was my movie Secret Santa, he gave me most stuff that I explicitly stated I was uncomfortable with, and didn't want. Would've been a little different if he stated why he gave them to me, but oh well...

Anyway, I noticed Mido9 deleted your comments on their profile. WOW... *Smh*

Oh yeah, about the music secret santa; It's too hard to explain my music taste to others, so that's why I never join it, despite wanting to. :( If someone asks me what bands/singers I like, no problem. But when they ask me what genre's? My brain shuts down lol...
