Hello there! I am Tristan "Arkada" Gallant, and I yell about anime. Apologies for all poorly spelled posts.

I was thrilled when I realized "Blue Prince" was going to be a topic on the anime podcast, "Quest for the Best."
And then @arkada.bsky.social put me on blast for trolling him after reaching Room 46. 😄

It's been awhile since I watched it, should probably revisit it to see if I'd still enjoy it.

Cromartie held up pretty well on a recent re-watch and it was of a similar era. Though it didn't cross the same lines that Ghost Stories did.
I mean 84, with 4 dropped. Man not only can I not stop myself from doubling up on my own list, I can't freaking count today...
83/100 but 3 of them I remember trying and dropping. Feel free to put me on blast for them or convince me to retry them.

Besides silver spoon. I just need a pizza for that one.
No I just accidently putting the same thing on twice... So let's swap the bottom one with Ah! My Goddess!

I like both Hellsing and Ultimate, and would probably combine both of them honestly. Ultimate is the better all rounded production, but the original adaptation has far better music.
Following in the footsteps of @prozdishere.bsky.social here are a random smattering of 100 anime I like, how many have you seen?
I agree with like 95% of this chart. I only get to things like Prison School and then I narrow my eyes slowly.

More than half of all TV anime series ever made were first broadcast after 2010.

Apple TV's annual content budget could fund every single anime released in a year many times over.

Crunchyroll has not been able to lock in production for season 3 of their biggest show of the decade, Solo Leveling.

That being said, I'm still looking for work, so if anyone is looking for a game designer/level designer with ~10 years of industry experience, please let me know 👀
Just received notice from a studio I was interviewing with that they would not be moving on with me in the hiring process, which makes me very sad, but the interesting thing is that they notified me by phone, which is a new one for me?

They were very kind, and I appreciate the personal touch a lot.

TOKYO RAMEN. I don't know if it's the ramen just being this good, or the fact I'm almost hitting 24h of continual consciousness but this was REALLY GOOD. #TristanInJapan #JapanArk
