hi im dylan. i powerlift, play soccer (COYG), play volleyball, and will (hopefully) be in med school soon. i enjoy slice of life anime.
my ratings are generally based on my enjoyment and feelings toward the anime, not their objective qualities.
manga ratings are usually high because i like manga, and i get easily skewed by good art.
10-2 scale, thus 6 is average.
10 > Masterpiece: A profoundly impactful show that left a lasting emotional impression, which has either changed my life or entertained me thoroughly. It may not be technically perfect, but its influence and excellence make it unforgettable to me.
9 > Exceptional: Highly memorable, emotionally engaging, and well-executed, similar to a masterpiece, but lacks a personal connection with me due to minor shortcomings (usually based on feeling).
8 > Great: Fun, entertaining watch. While it may not be groundbreaking, it leaves a clear positive impression and stands above the average.
7 > Above Average: It has clear, strong points, but also some weaknesses that detract it from being any higher. This could be due to uneven pacing, underdeveloped elements, poor characters, or inconsistent quality in the soundtrack/animation.
6 > Average: Relatively balanced mix of strengths and flaws. It’s passable, perhaps enjoyable in moments, but ultimately forgettable or lacking in impact.
5 > Below Average: While it may have had some potential or redeeming aspects, they’re overshadowed by flaws in execution, writing, or engagement. A slightly disappointing experience overall.
4 > Weak: Struggles to maintain interest or deliver anything of real value. Its flaws make it a slog to get through, with little to no reward.
3 > Bad: A frustrating or unenjoyable experience. Major issues in storytelling, character work, or presentation dominate the viewing experience and undermine any potential.
2 > Horrible: Severely flawed to the point of being almost unwatchable. It had me show visceral negative reactions while watching and turning off my screen in disgust.
1 > Abyss of fiction: Similar rationale as above, but subjectively worse; don't really use unless i'm hating.

Ive only been a fan for around a year now, but im soo excited for season 2 (and if my pfp didnt give it away, im also a chinatsu fan).
Bokuyaba is my favorite anime but the manga wasnt as good for me, still really good but not the best. i havent read the last chapter yet but I’m kind of scared… also really sucks that we lost blue box and bokuyaba in the same year 💔
I absolutely agree with you!! Its one of the best written webtoon I've discovered in my teenage days. So relatable especially if you read this during your highschool days which I did that's what made it so special. I love everyone as well, they're just so beautifully written characters. I'm glad you read it and loved it!!
yep, its one of the best webtoon i'd read. I really love the summer season sm that i re read that every year. Glad you reading it rn! I read that during pandemic, it has only two seasons that time so i waited every chapter for the remaining two seasons. Its so good, really that good!! You can relate and can feel every panel bruh.
fr fr, i got baited by the overhype series this season:-\ kill blue was fun to read but the ending was rushed...while the ramparts of the ice manga is also exciting to read, i think the manga is better than anime i didn't like the animation its just boring:-[ that's why i getchu. im stuck in ep 1 of kamina botan, i will continue to watch the series if u think its good compared to the other series this season.
i feel you... I miss the job change log sm(TT) it feels empty waiting for season 2, i miss waiting of new chapters every week. damn. fr im slump reading can't find any manhwa or webtoon to binge read
I'm watching 7-8 anime this season but mostly dropping it or idk just waiting it to finish but only one stuck with me and i consistently watching is kill blue. Some are good to watch but i just don't get the hype and i read already the rampart of ice. I also finished the manga of kill blue but the anime is so good that it keeps me hooked for some reason.
How about you? What are your thoughts this season and I would like to know what are the good ones to continue or worth the hype??
I miss job change log sm(TT) a lot of manhwas i've been reading since 2024 and last year are completed this year... Been on slump reading since then
What are you currently reading?? I'm so lost rn I don't have anything to read or watch...
I think the writing for Artemis is too good for people to really understand which hurts its popularity. People expected some silly harem manga with it but the writing of Shinonome and Saraki is just one of my favourite in all ongoing manga right now.
You should read more! The anime is really good, if you like Shaft. I think it elevates the manga in the right way without overshadowing the manga itself.
sorry you seem nice but i can't stand the corner merchants :(
Hello! I don't remember why I sent the friend request but I think it's because I saw you really liked Artemis and I do as well, hah! Shinonome senpai best girl.
There is no bad Soremachi fan, so I'm glad you're enjoying the manga - I knew propaganda works!
appreciate it! and completely agree with you, this shit had me laughing on the first episode, not because it's funny or sweet: but because it's genuinely fucking bait that it becomes hilarious. i mean, come on... a girl that suddenly "likes" amane? who becomes irrelevant after 2 episodes, what type of fucking plot is that. but yeah thanks again.

Sadly you're an Arsenal fan though :(
