Stop listening to grifters tell you what games you should or shouldn't play and what shows you should or shouldn't watch. They're miserable and want you to be miserable too. Toxic muthafuckas ain't worth your energy.

You know what's crazy? Anime from 2000 to 2005 is considered vintage now. In order for something to be considered vintage, it has to be at least 20 years old. It really puts things into perspective and shows how long I've been watching anime. I enjoy this shit so much.

Don't know why I never got into Cat's Eye but I really don't have an excuse at this point. Not only is the new series airing on Hulu, but the old series is on Retrocrush. So while I'm keeping up with the new series every week, I'll be binging the old series.

There's a few coworkers at my job that watch anime. They're younger than me and they mostly watch popular anime, but that's okay. It's usually good conversation for the most part. Talking about anime is great without some bitter muthafucka whining about tourists all the time.

Did you know that the first feature-length anime film was used as war propaganda? The Imperial Japanese Navy ordered director Mitsuyo Seo to make a film and Momotaro: Sacred Sailors came out in 1945. Some anime history that's needed today.

This is what happens when you give clowns the option to make long tweets. They think their opinions matter more because of it.

I said that I was gonna recommend an anime every day of this month and I did just that! It has been fun recommending anime for people to watch because you don't see too many fans doing that these days. That's how you keep shows in rotation. Hope y'all enjoyed this!

The topic of One Piece being political has come up yet again on the hellsite and it's really telling how many people watch this anime and don't think there aren't any political aspects in it. These guys declared war on the World Government ffs.
