~*here* are my fav songs for your bio-reading pleasure~
Let's get started!
First things first, you can call me JJ or Jesse! I've been watching anime on and off since late 2014.
10 Assorted Facts About Me:
1. I don't know how to write a short bio, minimalism is for mentally stable people 💁
2. Myers Briggs: INFJ
3. Fav Animal: Rabbit
4. 2 tattoos, 5 piercings (not done yet!)
5. I'm bi/pan and prefer they/them
6. Working at a pork plant turned me vegetarian (since July 2020 🐷)
7. If I could be a different animal for a day I'd be: Mantis Shrimp, the One Punch Man of the sea!
8. Favorite Foods: Twin Bings, cherry sours, bubble tea, slushies, anything with peanut butter & chocolate. If you harass the lovely mint chip ice cream enjoyers of the world then square up; I love my frozen toothpaste.
9. Favorite Artists: AJR, Mother Mother, Melanie Martinez, MARINA, Gorillaz, Ashnikko, Joji, King Princess, Cavetown, Bo Burnham
The underlined ones I've seen in concert and I had tickets to Melanie before Covid hit 😭
10. I am incredibly average at artsy things but I do them anyway. I'm always singing in the car, and sometimes I sketch portraits of whatever I'm obsessed with at the time. I can usually make vaguely pleasing sounds on flute or piccolo.
Back to anime tho, some of my favorites so far (links attached, just click):

At the peak of my manga-reading, BL was my go-to. Never related with hetero manga to the same degree; I have my own ideas on why (*ahem* religious trauma *cough*). My favorites are on this list here. I'd like to branch out to less romance-focused manga though! I'm slowly working on Tokyo Ghoul.
I know people love to hate it but I had a Killing Stalking phase 👀 I listen to true crime now but I don't romanticize real serial killers, only a few 2D ones like the one below. Of course it's because he's hot, interesting and damaged, why else? 🤠
"Strumming my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words..."

Feel free to check out my lists but keep in mind my highschool self wrote parts of them. Also, I love sharing recommendations but I don't get them often. So if you have anything you think I'd like based off my ratings, fav genres etc, please share I really wanna know! If it's sad and pretty I'll probably like it.
All in all, thanks for the follows (I always follow back) and comments n things; I appreciate the love! Side note if you're in the NYC area whassup?
[cheers weebs 🍻]

No problem, I've watched a lot of anime growing up but, most of the newer ones I haven't touched. Anyways, thanks for the recommendations it's been awhile since I've watched any anime and I think the last one I watched was Assassination Classroom about close to ten years ago so, it's been awhile. Well, have a good one, thanks for the follow, and see you on the other side.
Thanks for the follow back! It's nice to meet you! Hope everything is going well for you!
Admittedly, for genres I kind of have tunnel vision, most of what I watch is either isekai, romcom, or action/fantasy. I'm currently watching Mob Psycho, and if you haven't seen it, I'd definitely recommend it. Season 1 was great, I just started season 2 so not much can be said just yet, but there are definite high hopes for it.
I haven't seen Danmachi's most recent season either, but I did like Bell and Ais and their interactions with Bell getting flustered. Ryuu is my favorite character, and on another note, I'm really curious as to how strong Ottar is considering he's the only level 7. We haven't seen too much of him and hopefully we will get more scenes with him in the future. I'm really behind on my recent seasons. That, Date A Live, Shield Hero, Reincarnated as a Slime, I've got some definite catching up to do.
On your list, Soul Eater is probably the one I'll start first at some point. It's one I've heard a lot of positive feedback for, but I've also heard there's a terrible spinoff called Soul Eater Not. It was on a 10 worst anime all time list. Have you seen it?
Following, also random fact: I haven't seen any of the anime among your favorites or honorable mentions, so thank you for the recommendations
Firstly, thank you for taking the time to clarify. :) I shouldn't have been worried, since I'm used to a lot of people "ghosting" me over the years, but I just wanted to be certain. I also forgot to take into account that you have tons of other followers/friends, so of course it might be hard to track every single response. To be honest, I am mostly the same way in regards to talking only when I am asked something, or if the topic of discussion is interest-related, but lately I've been getting out of my "shell" a bit more.
Well, Idk how other libraries do it/operate it, but my local ones set up reading programs during the summer, and you can win prizes depending on how much reading time you logged in. In saying that, there's no exact set amount that you have to read, but the more you do read, the better chance you get at winning a prize that you're aiming for! :D It's mostly for the kiddo's, but they have one for adults as well. For mine, they pick a particular "theme", but that doesn't mean that you have to read books that go along with the theme. That part is optional. Lately, I've just been reading manga like Wotakoi and Nana, but I plan on reading vol 5 of Dr Stone, and The Fox and the Little Tanuki soon! :) I also want to re-read The Vampire Chronicles books that I have at some point, since I want to honor Anne Rice. Her passing is such a shame. :( I was very sad when I originally found out about it. Anyway, I'm not sure what to recommend, since I mostly read manga, and I don't read LGBT+ books. (It's not necessarily that I don't want to, but I just don't know of any that are actually wholesome, and doesn't contain a lot of anxiety triggering stuff like rape, etc. Basically, I don't read anything Yaoi/Yuri related due to personal reasons, but I'd possibly be willing to read a BL/Shounen-Ai. Can't promise when I'll get to them, but I do appreciate recommendations nontheless.) So yeah, I apologize. (^_^,)
Other than reading, I've been gaming, and doing some self-study for Japanese. I had my birthday a few weeks ago, which was honestly one of the best ones I've had so far, if not THE best, for various reasons. :') I've had more people wish me a Happy Birthday, then I've had in my whole life thus far. I also made a new friend ony my birthday who is practically like a long lost twin, when it comes to having similar interests & beliefs, etc. Long story short, it's been very refreshing, and I haven't smiled & laughed so much in a very long time. Oh, congratulations!!! :D I'm so happy for you! I'm sure you will do great! :D
No need to apologize, but again, I appreciate you taking the time to clarify some things. I did not consider that you might have just been busy, or you might have been going through something, or whatever. In the future, I will try to be more mindful of that, but for now, thanks again. :)
Have a lovely day!
