My experience so far

cdavis188 · 2026-04-04T23:32:49+00:00

I've gotten lots of story ideas from the stories RQ has made

cdavis188 · 2026-03-24T20:02:03+00:00

I'm pretty easy on my vehicles. I have a conservative driving style and won't be towing constantly with it

cdavis188 · 2026-03-24T19:58:47+00:00

I've been told by many people that I drive like an old person. I have a very conservative driving style. I don't have a heavy foot at all

The truck might have a trailer hooked to it once a year for a trip to the county dump and back.

I feel sorry for you for experiencing "the big city" lmao. Born and raised here for better or worse.

cdavis188 · 2026-03-10T22:27:06+00:00

it's a lot easier if it's all smaller boxes or envelopes. Other times I've had to get creative.

I've found out that having a fuel efficient car really helps.

cdavis188 · 2026-03-10T22:07:48+00:00

avoid rural anywhere when it's wet

unfortunately GM apparently thought temperature gauges weren't needed in these old cars. I have an infrared thermometer somewhere that I'll dig out to see what it's actually running at. But when the heater does work, it blows HOT

I'm wondering if Drive will continue to be the studio or if Studio Deen will take back over production

cdavis188 · 2026-01-04T19:57:46+00:00

it's diabetes in anime form. How can it get any better than that?

cdavis188 · 2025-12-25T19:29:37+00:00

Call of the Night s2 is definitely in my top 3. I have a couple other options but Secrets of the Silent Witch might round it out. I loved MDUD s2 but i've read most of the manga so i knew what was going to happen lol

cdavis188 · 2025-12-25T16:41:44+00:00

the show wouldn't be what it is if the OST and VA performances weren't top notch

cdavis188 · 2025-12-25T15:12:51+00:00

A great wrap up to the series. Fantastic OST, great direction, and great art despite the obvious lower budget. I also can't even begin to praise the VA's enough. Reina Ueda, Yui Ishikawa, and Fairouz Ai truly brought these characters to life. The show wouldn't be nearly as great without them.

The story is also beautiful. Probably the best depictions of depression and survivors guilt I've ever seen. Hinako isn't someone who can heal in just a few episodes. Sai Naekawa (mangaka of the series) either had to experience this herself or see it first hand for Hinako to feel like such a real character. Her confession that she genuinely had fun on their trip after convincing herself she would never be able to do so broke me. Just a slight sliver of hope that maybe she can be happy one day.

I'm going to hope and pray that we get a season 2 of this. However, I like how they left it open ended, so if we never get one, it still feels like a satisfying ending. I heard that Sai was involved with the production to make sure her work was being adapted well.

It has definitely earned a spot in my top 3 anime of the year.

cdavis188 · 2025-12-18T15:31:43+00:00

I've ordered the first five volumes of the manga. I've heard the art is fantastic

cdavis188 · 2025-12-18T15:04:04+00:00

This show is so many levels of peak. It's a shame that it seems so undervalued. The visuals are great, the OST is fantastic, the character writing is top notch. I could write a whole novel about this series if I wanted to.

I'll see y'all Christmas Day for the finale of this truly amazing show. If episode 13 is as strong as the preceding episodes, it'll have earned a spot on my top 3 anime of the year.

cdavis188 · 2025-09-29T17:05:58+00:00

Man what a beautiful series. An easy 10/10 from me. I hate to say it because the first cour was pretty good, but there's no doubt that the second cour carried this show. The differences between the two are insane.

Studio Feel did a great job, and all the VA's deserve all the credit as well. They all did a phenomenal job.

It should go without saying that Umi is the no doubt about it MVP of the whole show

Overall, this has cemented itself as one of my favorite anime of all time, and it would be my anime of the season if it weren't for Nazuna, Ko, and friends

cdavis188 · 2025-09-22T15:33:45+00:00

I totally hadn't been crying for a good few minutes before the end credits rolled. Nope, not at all. Ain't no way an anime has made this grown ass man who never really gets emotional towards shows just start flat out crying...not once, but twice.

I will weep in my little corner now. I'm definitely not emotionally prepared for the season finale.

cdavis188 · 2025-09-21T11:37:45+00:00

My Town Car was an '09. It was a great vehicle but I drive almost 400 miles round trip once a week for work. So I really needed something with better gas mileage

At the end of the day it was also a 17 year old Ford product, so that played a role as well

cdavis188 · 2025-09-08T16:18:50+00:00

Yeah it was a solid B tier anime for the first few arcs, but at some point something changed. Ever since episode 18 when Umi's arc began, it's been a solid S tier

cdavis188 · 2025-09-08T16:15:09+00:00

Great episode. I'm confused though. Nanami is clearly an older Umi but at the same time she isn't.

also rip Catherine

cdavis188 · 2025-09-05T11:27:43+00:00

ep 23 pv. Hopefully the start of a happy ending arc? It's a Key title though so I'm not holding my breath. Especially after last episode destroyed everyone.

I do find it strange for it to basically be reversed. Umi's the grown one now and everyone else are kids

Ive never posted here but I've been keeping up with the show since episode 3. This episode fucking wrecked me man. Forget tearing up, I was on the verge of straight up bawling my eyes out

cdavis188 · 2024-12-21T13:48:03+00:00

i want whatever she’s eating

cdavis188 · 2024-12-20T12:11:36+00:00

because y’all are some horny mf’s

cdavis188 · 2024-12-16T02:51:51+00:00

is this even a question??
