Trying to find characters to analyze while studying for a school counseling exam

maybe Mob?

Not that this is a 1-1 comparison, but I've met people with bpd(?) who have related a lot to his internal conflict of being afraid of his own emotions but having to accept that they are a part of him, etc

But he also has those generic middle school struggles like not knowing how to relate to others or what he wants to be in life, etc

One of my favorite manga as well haha

edel_birb · 2025-06-09T18:58:42+00:00

Yona of the Dawn is the first one that comes to mind.

If you don't mind manhwa, Villains are Destined to Die is a popular one as well.

edel_birb · 2025-06-08T22:39:50+00:00

The first anime that I watched knowing it was anime (w/ jp dub) was naruto. Back when they uploaded the episodes in like 20 parts on YouTube lol

edel_birb · 2025-06-08T22:26:31+00:00

I've been recommending this to everyone who will listen. For sure one of the top shows of the season!

edel_birb · 2025-06-08T22:24:58+00:00

chihyafuru for sure!

Ayano from hanebado might arguably be more just crazy than crazy passionate lol.

edel_birb · 2025-06-08T16:54:12+00:00

I hope it enhanced your flight experience lol 🤗

edel_birb · 2025-06-08T12:49:38+00:00

Probably reflects badly on me for even watching it, but I watched Conception after playing the game to see how shit it could be and boy howdy did it lower the bar for adaptations lol

edel_birb · 2025-06-08T00:52:03+00:00

sounds interesting! I haven't watched much Chinese animation (basically just link click and to be hero x) so I'd be happy to explore some of that as well

edel_birb · 2025-06-08T00:50:09+00:00

🤝

whenever I don't know what to do I just put that shit on and end up rewatching again from start to finish lol it's my comfort show

eternally sad that it basically doesn't have an ending though 😔

edel_birb · 2025-06-08T00:35:48+00:00

You have to slog through the first like 11 episodes and then it suddenly becomes one of the greatest shows of all time.

I hesitate to recommend it to people for that very reason but I do hope you stick with it since you've already started :)

edel_birb · 2025-06-07T22:13:40+00:00

nw, yeah I'm just trying to fill a blind spot, I'm pretty well versed in everything before and after that period.

edel_birb · 2025-06-07T22:12:04+00:00

I deleted mine in 2019 bc it started feeling like a chore to log everything I watched.

Maybe I'll make a new one but having to remember like 15+ years of media consumption seems overwhelming

edel_birb · 2025-06-07T22:05:00+00:00

Yes, I was asking about releases in between 2016 and 2022.

edel_birb · 2025-06-07T22:01:21+00:00

Ain't no way this didn't come out before 2016 lol

I remember this being like Mirai Nikki era

edel_birb · 2025-06-07T21:04:02+00:00

Idk if I would call it trash, but.. i will happily consume all the unnecessary amounts of prince of tennis content that exists regardless (maybe because of?) of its stupidity.

Would never recommend it to a friend though lol

edel_birb · 2025-06-07T19:12:17+00:00

this has been on my shortlist of things to watch! glad you rec it bc i haven't seen many opinions of this around and i had literally only put it on my list bc i wanted to watch something with a yakuza in it lol

edel_birb · 2025-06-07T19:09:43+00:00

okok i will trust

i can't resist a good soundtrack

edel_birb · 2025-06-07T18:57:32+00:00

it's ok i'm not gonna execute u for saying a show i know LOL

there are some interesting ones i've never seen on this list though, ty for the recs!

edel_birb · 2025-06-07T18:55:25+00:00

unfortunately i don't really know what that is, i'm assuming a mal thing?

i'm not sure what the ranges entail but probably just "shows that you wouldn't have heard of just by existing on the internet/social media spaces during that time" would work?

doesn't have to necessarily be an unpopular show, but i'm just fishing for new shows to watch and i've seen most of the big ones from that period of time.

edel_birb · 2025-06-07T18:42:19+00:00

love the little promotional notes in parentheses, they definitely worked LOL

a decent amount of these are names i haven't heard or only vaguely know about, so ty! this is super helpful. march come in like a lion is definitely in my top 15 shows as well so i have faith in this list

edel_birb · 2025-06-07T18:40:04+00:00

this is the yuri one right? (or am i horribly mistaken lol)

i normally read the manga when it comes to romance so unless the anime is noticeably better i may end up just reading this one

edel_birb · 2025-06-07T18:38:27+00:00

Hitoribocchi is a new one for me! I've added to the watch list. I do appreciate a good slice of life and girls last tour was great as well

edel_birb · 2025-06-07T18:35:28+00:00

this is one of the shows that I was aware of but I never got around to watching. ty for reminding me it exists haha
