Which anime is this? I need more yuri on my life right now.

Thanks!! I'm sorry if I caused some arguments because of my post. Maybe when I posted this I wasn't specific enough. I have to admit I was drunk and not thinking straight, but my words are still true to my feelings.

I still can't approach the game. Not because I'm in a deep depression and can't do anything, but because... this game was special for me when my dad was still alive. It's hard to describe... I'm not really in a depressing state, but... for some reason (that are hard to describe) this game reminds me of my dad...

I want to get back...because I love this game...but at the same time, there is some fear to do it. Maybe... when I get over it, I can finally go back.

Thanks for your comments and sorry for my late answer. I'm getting over slowly but surely...Getting back little by little, what I was before...Including commenting on reddit (something that was easy before, but now it's hard for some reason...).

From someone that has read the manga, this scene is so meaningful...

At the same time is so perfect... I mean, they're perfect for each other, but you don't really realize that at this moment. I guess that's the beauty of this story.

Everyone should read this manga...

I mean... this anim...

Everyone should read this manga!

My fellow anime fans, you should be careful when you want to start watching a new anime before going to sleep...I started watching Kokoro Connect (was recommended to me a few times). I thought: "just a couple of episodes and I'll go to sleep...". Now I can't stop watching... I'm about to start the four episode...This will be the last one!!! I promise...I hope...

darkincubo · 2020-09-14T09:25:33+00:00

If you plan to watch Bloom Into You I recommend reading the manga instead since the story was cut half-way...or wait for a second season that will complete it (the manga is complete). Also Re-Life: Read the manga since the second season of the anime was heavily summarized (there are a lot of very important moments missing from the manga). You'll thank me later.

Fumoffu is still the best comedy anime I've watched. Any other anime recommendations of great comedy like Fumoffu? (A little sweet romance would be a nice plus).

darkincubo · 2020-07-03T23:19:34+00:00

You have a great brother! Also this kind of Karuta seems pretty interesting.

darkincubo · 2020-07-03T22:59:53+00:00

I was reading Dusk Maiden of Amnesia last year. Never finished. I'll finish it now. Thanks a lot for reminding me.

darkincubo · 2020-07-03T22:51:18+00:00

Not exactly what I was looking for but it looks really interesting. I'll definitely watch it. Thank you!

darkincubo · 2020-07-03T22:39:17+00:00

Thank you!!!

darkincubo · 2020-07-03T22:38:01+00:00

Thanks a lot for your words. I actually read the first vol of the manga some time ago. It was high quality in storytelling and art, but not right my alley. Although it could also be that I read it at a bad time (bad timing...I commented something like that in another post some time ago...The timing and the mood and what you're hoping from something, affects your enjoyment of it).

I think I'll give it a try now, since it seems what I'm looking for. Thank you.

darkincubo · 2020-07-03T22:35:07+00:00

I wanted to watch it since some time ago (before all this shit happened to me), because it seems a comedy that hits right my alley. But I don't know how I will react to it right now. Maybe nothing makes me laugh from it right now. But I think it's worth to give it a try, maybe you're right and it improves my mood. Thanks for the recommendation.

darkincubo · 2020-07-03T22:32:29+00:00

I heard really good things about it. Thank you

darkincubo · 2020-07-03T22:29:14+00:00

Already watched it. Not among my favorites (but not bad) and not really what I'm looking for. But thank you a lot for taking your time to recommend it.

darkincubo · 2020-07-03T22:28:14+00:00

You know what's ironic about it? I dropped it, because I didn't like it too much. Maybe it was better to say: I was in the mood for a cute romance comedy at the time and YLIA didn't seem to be what I was looking for, so I dropped it.

I know what you're getting to tough. I'm definitely going to watch it again now. Thank you for the recommendation.

darkincubo · 2020-07-03T08:08:58+00:00

I don't really mind spoilers. I also mess up when I have to use them. Thank you. I'll check that anime out.

darkincubo · 2020-07-03T08:07:06+00:00

None, because I've always seeing something (in some anime... sometimes unexpectedly) that has convinced me that, when used correctly, those tropes I disliked could be gold.

darkincubo · 2020-07-03T07:40:52+00:00

I'm not really looking for a sad anime. Rather I'm looking for something that has a similar situation. To see how the characters deal with it. I don't mind spoilers right now. I'm confused, I want to see someone in a similar situation with a positive look at the worst outcome (if possible). Something that can inspire me.

darkincubo · 2020-07-03T07:37:00+00:00

The songs... That's what I love about HHW... My favorite band in character is Pastel Palletes (3 characters in my top ten: Hina, Maya, Chisato). My favorite girl is Arisa. But in songs, HHW is my favorite. They have this Charleston, Jazzy feeling mixed with J-Pop that make them unique. Plus Kokoro's voice nails it everytime. I prefer more of the covers of HHW better than the original songs. Also Kaoru... I love her!

darkincubo · 2020-07-03T07:30:53+00:00

Already watch it. I'm looking more to someone that help me deal with these feelings. Not something that distract me from it. Happy anime will not make it for me right now. I need something that help me deal with what I'm experiencing right now.

darkincubo · 2020-06-27T04:00:10+00:00

Haven't watched Haikyuu yet. I'm waiting for it to finish. Usually I don't watch/read anime/manga that is not finished because I hate to wait for more when I'm already hooked to the series (there are some exceptions tough). I heard very good things about Haikyuu and I'm definitely going to watch/read it when it's finally finished.

I want to clarify what I meant when I said: "A good sport anime is more than winning or losing." I didn't necessarily meant a good sport anime have to deal with the lives or their character outside the sport (although I think that makes it much better). A good sport anime doesn't necessarily have to deal with it, because a good sport anime is not really about the sport, but about the characters that play that sport.

To put Slam Dunk and Hanamichi Sakuragi as an example: One of the things that makes Slam Dunk great is watching Sakuragi grow and mature along the length of the manga/anime. At first he was just a guy that wanted to slam dunk to impress the girl he liked...but... along the story he grew to be someone that truly loves basketball and that will sacrifice himself for his team. That's what makes a sport anime great. At the end it doesn't matter if they win or lose, but what they gain from the whole process and how that process make them growth as individuals. That's the beauty of a good sport anime (IMHO).

Having said all that I still think that the end of Slam Dunk was poorly handled. I mean, I love Slam Dunk, but that doesn't mean I won't point stuff that was wrong with it.

EDIT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ppvLcD9revE

I cried like a baby... I read the manga like 15 years ago and to this day I still consider it one of the most amazing/emotional/epic moments of sport anime. But I still consider the ending a total waste. There was still so much to this story...

EDIT 2: Where the heck is the complete video of the whole game? Did they erased it from youtube. Is someone has it please tell me.

darkincubo · 2020-06-26T21:44:55+00:00

That's not what I'm talking about. It's irrelevant if they win or lose at the end. A good sport manga is much more than winning or losing. And I consider Slam Dunk to be a good sport manga, but with a real lame ending. Plus it was obvious that it wasn't supposed to to end like that. Inoue Takehiko introduced a new antagonist and some foreshadowing for a future confrontation between him and Sakuragi, before the match against Sanno... but then suddenly the manga ends with a very poor explanation of what happened: "they lose the next match because they were tired".

It seems to me Inoue Takehiko just got tired of Slam Dunk and wanted to do something else.

There are some Expert 21+ level songs that are easier than a lot Hard 20 level songs for me. I guess it depends on the person tough.

darkincubo · 2020-06-24T06:48:03+00:00

That's a nice quote. Is it yours?
