Awesome, the same goes for you! I always love a good discussion. Do you have any anime recommendations?
And no worries! I'm in the same boat haha, college classes are in full swing and I'm working three jobs so sadly I don't have a lot of time to log onto AP :(
I'm glad that you are enjoying your time on this site <3
When I was a kid I also had a lot of anime crushes ahah xD (Well, I still have them, to tell the truth xD) It would be really nice to know who your crushes were when you were a child, maybe we had some of them in common xD <3
When you'll finish "Slam Dunk" I'll be glad to hear your opinion, maybe you'll convince me to give the manga another go xD
If you read "Real" I'm sure you' won't be disappointed *_* It's only flaw is the fact that Inoue updates really slowly, it was on hiatus for 4 years, now it started again but I don't really know when the author will take another long break like the last one, and it's really frustrating since it's one of my favourite manga and I don't know if it will ever get and ending ç_ç And "Vagabond", another manga from Inoue and another one of my absolutely favourites, has the same problem ç_ç He can't do this to me ahah xD
Anyway, if you'll read "Real" let me know what do you think about it ^-^
Yeah, since I have a degree on Psychology, I'm particularly disappointed when the characters' psychological characterization is sloppy xD
About "Banana Fish", "Garden of Light" is just the title of that final chapter in which Eiji has long hair and glasses ^-^ So you read it already ç_ç It's really heartbreaking, I hope that it will receive an OVA someday, I want to cry again ahah xD

<div class="userContent">Have a good day <3</div>
hahaha good luck with university! idk my schedule yet but *fingers crossed* I hope it's good, I already have so little time..
I've watched the anime first and then read the manga so for me the anime was great, but some people that read first say that the characters reactions are better in the manga. Overall I think it was super well adapted, it's faithful to the manga. Ofc the manga has more depth, since you can see what the characters are thinking and I think it's more emotional, but that's my personal opinion so it may not be the same for everyone. I think the manga is really worth the read, but the anime is a good adaptation.
Author please give us some crumbs of Minjun and Hoon.. we need it :(
Ahhhhhhh yes I'm so excited for that movie. I'm still reading the manga but I like it so much so far. Yes I love that song! I've never checked the video (i didn't know it had one) but thanks so much I will check it later 😍 GRIZZLY studios be feeding us so well, they announced The Storm Breaks and also another one, it's Dont Stay Gold
I have only seen Digimon Fusion (1+2) but not any other parts of this franchise nor the movies unfortunately. So I am unfamiliar with that OST. But I have just googled the Digimon Fusion season two's opening and as soon as I heard it, the rush of nostalgia and memories returned. It constains some of my first fictional crushes ^^ Now I think of it, it is the same as YuGiOh, I haven't watched the "main" series but only the YuGiOh Zexal. Have you seen YuGiOh Zexal or only the orginal YuGiOh? The main character from Zexal is considered the weakest main character from the franchise but I personally enjoyed it.
Have you seen "Free! Startiing Days"? Its probably my favourite anime out of the Free! Franchise. In there, Makato is shown overcoming some personal obstacles so I was so proud of him! The art in Free is absoulutely beautiful as well I have to add.
Yes! the reason I dropped "they say I was born the king's daughter" was because of the main character. So the world was a mysogynistic and sexist place, which I was fine with because I expected the FL would show everyone who's boss, but no. I find her self-righteous, down right rude and useless. See, I would mind as much as I understand she fears for her well being since defying such a powerful family can be dangerous but I dislike how she goes around a preaches that she will become the saviour of women, then goes further to contantly call her father a scum. I just can't with her. As for "capable maid", I don't bear any hate towards it, especially not to the extent as "they say I was born the king's daughter", it is just I dislike perfect main characters; no flaws, practically an angel. Same with Doctor Elise actually. I much prefer a main character who is flawed which lots of room for growth, but this is just a small personal thing and I understand why those mangas are so well-liked.
Ouroboros used to be my favourite manga, but now replaced by Imawa no Kuni no Alice, it follows two orphans who share a brotherly bond, wanting to exact vengeance due to a misfortune that occured, where the culprits were never detained and the police that failed them, one is particular who told them to be silent even though they witnessed the murder of their beloved orphanage caretaker. One becomes a policeman/detective, the other becomes a well respected member of the Yakuze/mafia. It is a very binge worthy manga, I have reread it 3 times, it never failed to make me cry at the end. There is lots of mystery and actions.
Deep Love is a franchise that contains five mangas. I am trying to avoid any spoilers so some of the descriptions are not entirely accurate or very generel. So I have read all of them except for Deep Love: Real, which is a reimagined version of Deep Love: Host but in a seinen style apparently and is not as good nor shares the same feeling as the other ones, so I have been avoiding it but I will read it in the near future anyway.
Anyway, the first manga is Deep Love: Ayu no Monogatari, is about a high school girl names Ayu, who sells her body to 'justify' the reason of her existancem she doesn't feel sad nor happy, until a faithful encounter with a kind old lady. Then later meeting a guy named Yoshiyuki.
The second one is the franchise is Deep Love: Host, it follows the story of Yoshiyuki, set after Ayu's tale, Ayu always said she was dirty (because she sells her body for money), so he wanted to understand why she would think so and joins a host club. He meets an array of people.
The third one is Deep Love: Reina no Unmei, Reina is a girl who was friends with Ayu. Due to a horrible and tragic event that happens, her life changes. This is also set more or less the same time around Host. Lots more tragic events befall Reina. This would be the manga that made me cry the most out of the franchise.
Finally, Deep Love: Pao no monogatari, is about a dog's life, from birth to death, Pao (the dog) is present during Ayu's story. It is very tragic and I love how Pao never loses hope in humans like all the other animals did even though his life was cruel due to people.
It was a very enjoyable episode. At first, (regarding the series as a whole) I dlisliked how "OP" Daisuke was and how he could, in fact, do anything with money (whether it be convincing people, etc.) even though Haru worked so hard and stayed true to his belief that 'money can't but everything', just to be proven wrong. But I have come to appreciate the comedic side of that and upon seeing episode 4, I really loved how Daisuke appreciated and experienced life without money. I look foward to future episodes since I hope that Daisuke will further develop and gain more experiences where money cannot solve everything. I also hope Haru, who is currently my favourite character, would be more flexible to ask and use Daisuke's resources more, as we see in the episode on the train. All in all, the anime is extremly enjoyable and there was much more positives than flaws!
Yes, the truth about the dog is indeed tragic, I guess it is a merciful lie when Daisuke told the boy that the dog was that dog. I pity the boy, I personally would've told him as I believe he deserves to be told the truth about his beloved pet even if that would make him sad and greive, but I completely understand why he lied and I don't fault his choice at all either! Who is your favourite character by the way? Speaking of which, I don't know why but Daisuke's voice was lower than I orginally thought lol, but thinking back, his current voice suits him much more than what I imagined.
