I'm quite curious about what's in your mangalist, since it seems like our lists have a 86.9% match. Why do you keep it private, if I may ask?

I just realized that I spelled Shoushimin wrong.

I'm not really hung up on any specific genre at the moment. Right now, I just want stories that I can learn something from. That's why I don't watch anime as much as before, since most anime don't have a good story. I'm very picky with what I spend my time watching now. That's also why I like books of the literary-fiction genre, there's always something to take away in those books, or things that will at least make you think. If you're looking for an iyashikei anime with a genuinely good story, try Barakamon. It's a standalone series with only 12 episodes and I think it will make you rethink adult life.

I'm doing the MAL Secret Santa thing and I just found out who the person I need to give recommendations to is, so I'll get back to finding recommendations.

The song in your profile was quite nice. I'll leave this for you in case you haven't listened to it before:

I think it's definitely worth a try.

One of the main reasons I loved Shoshimin (How To Become Ordinary) is because of its sound design and the way it's animated. It's not as vibrant as most other anime, it has a more real feel. You can clearly notice a lack of background music, but that works perfectly with this anime and only makes it better. I also love the cinematography and direction it. The way it cuts from one scene to the other; how the background and location changes while the characters have a conversation; the way everything is shown and the story is told. All of that gives it a movie-like feeling.

I find the mysteries interesting too. Apparently, the book is written is a way that the reader can solve the puzzles alongside the characters if they pay enough attention. I can't say if that's the case for all the puzzles in the anime, but it's definitely the case with some of the puzzles. The second episode of season 1 is among my favorites. Things get more serious as the story progresses, especially in season 2.

My one criticism would be that, since it's adapted from a novel, it's obviously very dialogue heavy; so, if you're not interested in those kinds of shows, Shoshimin is probably not for you. The original novel is also written by the same author as Hyouka (which you rated a 5). Although Hyouka and Shoshimin has a similar setting, the characters being in high school, the characters themselves are quite different, so definitely give it a try I'd say.

(You can stop reading here, I'm going to rant a bit about the differences between Shoshimin and Hyouka. So there might be slight spoilers.)Ended up ranting a lot, hopefully you didn't get bored and fall asleep while reading. The rest is up to you.

I just finished watching one. It was amazing. Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinju. I would give it a 10/10 but due to my personal feelings about certain things that happened in the story, I don't want to give it a perfect score. My personal feelings aside, it was a masterpiece.

Yo! I don't watch anime as much as I used to anymore but I was trying to find some good shows to watch an found your "Well-written" interest stack today. Just watched to say that I really liked it; it's exactly what I was looking for and you actually have a good selection there. I've already watched 44 of the anime there, so I'll try to watch the rest soon.

Happy Birthday!! 🎊

Thanks for the fr, nice to meet you

Thank you! I think your profile looks super cool too :D

thanks for the fr!

Yeah I can understand 👍
Luckily I'm in a community where many older weebs are there, and they don't really care about the shows you mentioned, so I have the opportunity to talk about rare stuffs with people :)

Yeah surely I'll give them a try once before I die!! 🤧
But not in the near future, because I can't manage enough free time for animanga nowadays, so I'm relying on short stuffs only :')

thank you so much for appreciating my taste 🙏 there're so many great animanga in your favs too ❤
btw i know many Indians who have read more than 200 manga and watched 1.5k anime! :)
Some of them are in my friends list too.

Edit : Oh! another secret of being superior in numbers of manga is, I mostly read short manga, you'll never find anything like Kingdom, Berserk, Vagabond, Vinland Saga in my list :') I try to read manga with good storyline but having less than 100 chapters.

Also i was not too interested in it like 1/2 years ago, i mean i red some popular ones before, but started exploring more about it since the last year.

Hehe yeah onek achhe amar Friends list ei ache prochur, but relatively kom use kore ei platform :')

Wow! Ami West Bengal thake 😀 I guess tomar mother tongue o Bangla? Tai Bangla tei likhlam:) Nice to meet you 😁
