LOL Well, apparently people would get annoyed they could never reach my family because my mom was always using the line for internet.

Oh man, that rarely happens. I started a new anime (Vanitas; I read the manga so knew it was going to be good) and I stopped knitting at some point because I got really into it and when the episode was over I had to figure out where I was on the round. lol.

I always read through the first post and rules post before I look at patterns/posting/send pots so that's how I figured that out since it sounded like it happened to quite a few people because you can get a discount (or some generously free) regrant for it. Too bad once you use it on that certain pet you can switch back and forth for free.

lolllll we had several times where people tried to call and couldn't get through. thank god no more dialup lol.

ooooooo i've been downloading it and haven't checked it out so far. i watched the first episode of Cheat Pharmacy but i was so CONFUSED because instead of an intro episode, its become a "case by case" anime. like mc is reincarnated into a magical world and he can appraise medical herbs and stuff and create medicine but the first episode did NONE of that intro and went straight to him creating medicine with no explanation whatsoever. xD;; and i read the manga so it was very jarring to me.

yeah ive seen some people allow regrants to people who accidentally overrode their accs with another one. still, it just kinda......happened. luckily, it wasn't one of the more important/elaborate accessories, it was a random freebie one i got at the start because it was free.

It's kind of crazy how much technology has evolved in the past 20 years. I remember when I got a Gameboy. That is a good memory. Lol.

Oh. I recommend Vanitas 100% I love it. I can't wait for one of my favorite characters to show up! Iove love love Roland more than I should. Lol.
Oh gosh. I haven't read that manga, but I don't think that's on my list to watch. I told a friend I'm kind of sick of most isekai animes nowadays. There's only a few I can name that I actually like and enjoy (funily enough I'm watching two this season I like) But that sounds confusing. Like I understand they have to cute some stuff out because animes are time restraint, but like make it make sense lol.

Well that's good. I've totally done something like that on accident, but luckily I know so I don't do it. But I can still see myself totally accidentally doing it. Lol.

i still have a gameboy advance, a silver one. and one of those old school brick gameboys that need batteries. it belonged to my uncle, i think. not sure if that one still works though. i should check, one of these days.

i also have the DS as well. and 3DS. AND Switch. xD i've only owned handheld games, never large game consoles lol.

i'll think about it lol. maybe wait til it finishes airing. i hate waiting for episodes lol. like i did for Seijo.
i only watched Cheat Pharmacy because i liked the manga. but the anime kinda flopped for me, given that weird start lol. and i love isekais, i can't get enough of them. if i read the manga, there's a high chance i'll watch the anime. unless the anime is a flop, like Cheat Pharmacy lol.
i might watch Killing Slimes for 100 Years, i did watch the first episode and it was okay?
I did find out that one of the isekais i'm reading Isekai Yakkyoku was just greenlit for an anime. i like this one because its not all fanservice and ecchi and harem. in fact, it doesn't really have any of that. its about a pharmacologist who dies and gets reincarnated in a magical version of (sorta) medieval times.

yeah accidents happen lol.

I still have my gameboy color somewhere. The gameboy was at my dad's house and was something for us to do while there. I bet my half brothers have destroyed it by now (they destroyed the super nintendo that was at my dad's house and then tried to blame it on us??? which makes no sense cuz we were only out there every other weekend). I sold my gameboy advance to buy a gameboy advance SP that I have lost the charger too =/. I had a ds lite that I sold to my brother. I have a 3DS and a new 3DS. (was trying to sell my older 3DS to my brother too but he didn't want it lol) My family has a nintendo 64 and a gamecube (both of which my brother has). Then I had a Wii. I skipped the wii u cuz meh, I barely played anything on the Wii. I have a ps2, ps3, and ps4. Looking for a ps5 but that'll probably be another year. And I have a switch. So lots of game systems over the years lol.
My switch though, smh, I didn't have screen protector on it and it was on my lap and one of my dogs was jumping up to sit by me on the couch and as soon as he started to lay down my other dog jumped up and pushed him onto my lap and his paw made a giant deep scratch across the screen =/ I was so bummed since I only had it for a couple months at that point. I'm used to it now. Learned my lesson (I was putting off getting a screen protector because I wasn't planning on taking it anywhere soon at the time)

Oh yeah, if I don't watch seasonals when they air I just somehow never go back to watch them I feel like. I spend too much time working on cross stitching lately and cross stitching is impossible to watch subs because I either focus on one or the other more. I have actually started opening up to dubs again. RN I'm watching the bleach dub while I cross stitch. I'll probably still be picky on what I choose for dubs because I don't want to watch something that'll be good dubbed lol. Probably helps I watched Bleached dubbed originally back in the good old days of staying up late to watch anime on tv.

I just feel like once I see it labeled at isekai I'm just like, meh, because it's just fanservice. If you do watch killing slimes for 100 years, let me know how you like it. I think that's one I was debating about. I know I've heard of Isekai Yakkyoku before. That actually sounds really interesting. I might read it. I'm looking for new series to read since a few of the ones I'm reading are finished or close to being finished. (I have a habit of mostly reading completed series cuz I have issues keeping up with series so I keep my on-going reading series small)

I feel like I typed a lot. LOL I did wait until I got on something other than my phone to type this lol so who knows.
Edit: just looked at the posted message. whoops.

Me when I saw this message on mobile: QnQ

Wow that's def a lot of game systems! I still have my gameboy advance and my ds and 3ds as well. I don't play with them anymore, and now I even rarely play my Switch lol. Too lazy to. And too lazy to complete the games I have or even to start them. I still haven't finished Pokemon Sword/Shield, nor Pokemon Snap and I haven't even started my Professor Layton one. xD;;
I'm sorry about what happened to your Switch? I don't use mine enough to get it scratched, thank god. The Switch that I have is the Pokemon Let's Go Pikachu version so its got the iconic Pikachu colors and Pikachu/Eevee controllers and charging dock and Pikachu/Eevee design on the back of the Switch. xD

I always, at the very least, check out the summaries of the seasonal animes, just so I know what's new. I mentally axe most of them lol. I would be able to concentrate on anything in my hands if I'm constantly reading subtitles lol. I never watch the Bleach dub but I watched some of the Japanese lol. I created a whole rainbow of Bleach OCs though. XD

I watched 1 episode of Killing Slimes but that's it. I dunno if its yay or nah lol. But I'm def gonna check out Isekai Yakkyoku though. It's less fanservice, imo, since there's def since I consider it having a bit more plot and content than harems and ecchi and big boobed elf girls or something. XD

Yes, as I said earlier. My expression was like: QnQ
So I waited to get on my laptop before replying lol.

I have a game I am playing on my 3DS, but I haven't touched it in months because I need to do serious grinding and I am too lazy to so that. Even though it's one of my favorite game series (fire emblem). Lol I never played any of the dlc for Pokemon swsh yet even though I've done the main story and hunted for some shinies lool. I finished the main story in the new Pokemon snap but too.lazy to go back to do the extras. I also need to finish breath of the wild. I keep just running around doing shrines and no progressing of the main story. I have turned into a game collector because I keep buying games I want to play but never get around to playing.
Oh god I would have been so pissed if my switch is a special edition . they were sold out of the lets go edition when I went to go buy my switch. I like getting some sort of.special edition because they are prettier than the standards. Both of my 3ds's are two different legend of.Zelda designs.

Ah. I usually go by the picture and then the genres, then ill go read the summary. I use MAL to help me remember what I've watched and whatnot (I've been using it for over 10 years so it'll be dumb of me to stop). Yeah at least when I knit it usual!y something g simple so once I get in the grove I can go on autopilot and not look at it for a while lol. Oh gosh I haven't created pcs for animes I liked since I was in high school....like 10 years ago. I remember writing myself little fanfics lol.

Man I get so annoyed when I go watch an anime and they don't label themselves as harems or fan service when it clearly is. Like you ain't fooling anyone with those big ole anime tiddies. I can't remember the name of the anime RN, but I only got throw the first episode cuz tiddies everywhere and I went back to recheck the genres and summary and no where was it listed as harem or echhi. I just remember it sounded so good too but I barely got through the first episode.

Omg if there are any mistakes this is my first like long post on my tablet and the autocorrect on it is poop because it thinks everything I type is wrong. I thought I had it turned off but it turned itself back on and I'm being lazy. lol. Or just feels longer cuz my autocorrect is back on and I had to correct a lot of my awful autocorrect "fixings"

Once again, my expression when I saw this on mobile: QuQ
*now on the computer lol*

Yeaaaaaah I hate grinding games lol. I tend to just....give up after awhile. xD
For Pokemon Sw/Sh, I finished the main storyline but didn't bother completing my pokedex. It used to be THE thing to do but after doing it once in a previous game, the idea just kinda....dropped away lol. Like, I can say I've done it ONCE and I'm satisfied lol. I haven't even finished Snap's main storyline.....and now there's this Unite thing? Like I've gotten Pokemon.com updates and I'm baffled, like what is this newfangled thing, can anyone explain it to me in a paragraph or less? XD;; the artstyle makes me thing of Pokken or whatever it was called, which I never got.

Game collector....yeah that's starting to be me lol.

Yeah the Switch had been out for awhile and I really wanted one but was torn about the price. Then I saw the Pokemon Go bundle version and I was like "OK I'M GETTING THAT ONE." XD

I only use MAL when I needed to look up something. I don't keep track of what I've watched or not lol. As for me, I immediately go for summary. I see a new anime title and the first thing I do is look at the summary. I don't care about the genre or the pictures or whatever. Summary first, always.

Yeah I used to do that too, write little fanfics (well actually they were like several chapters long and were never really completed lol) and I had this whole series where my female MC had the ability to travel between anime worlds and she would interact with all her favorite characters and fall in love with them. XD I only started really fleshing out this nameless MC(since her name changed with almost every fanfic I tried to write) when Bleach came out, creating a Bleach-inspired design for her and everything. My first few original fanfics, which I wrote all by hand before typing them out, were all from animes like Beyblades or Digimon or Yugioh or something. These animes were mainly the ones that were being dubbed and aired on tv at the time.

Sometimes you can TELL if the series is going to turn into a harem-esque ecchi fanservice series just by the promotional pictures alone. I tend to avoid series where I can SEE that like 90% of the characters are female. Even if the summary sounds okay, I still tend to avoid the series if most of the characters are female. Even if they're all MALE, I still tend to have reservations about it. I like a more evened out gender cast.

LOL AUTOCORRECT IS KILLER. Which is why I don't like using mobile because autocorrect can be so annoying. At least on the computer, it won't autocorrect me and just underline everything lol.

How did our replies even get so long! Oh I know because I tend to type a lot lol.

TBF It's how involved in the grinding. Some games I don't mind, others are so tedious and boring I can't do it. I never once have completed the pokedex. I give up after a while lol. WTH Is unite? I've never heard of it and I'm pretty good with keeping up with the main pokemon games so it's a side one? I usually don't get the spin off games. I can't wait for pokemon arceus though. That ones looks a lot of fun. Hopefully it won't turn into like swsh with how the battles are kind of...lame still...

I actually really like the animal crossing version, but I've never played animal crossing before and this was after I got my switch. I would have totally gotten it anyway because I like the colors. Usually I don't upgrade my systems unless I 100% need to. I don't see my switch pooping on me anytime soon so I'll just have to watch all of these special editions come out and be jelly of the people who get one.

Yeah I really should go back to summary, but I can weed out quite a few if I look at the genre. I try to stay away from ecchi because let me tell you, I've wasted a lot of time watching ecchi and rolling my eyes. I have seen my fair share of animes that are labeled ecchi that were good, but meh. If I hear good things about the anime after the fact or if I change my mind I will go watch something. But mostly harems and reverse harems I just can't anymore. WHICH ON A SIDE NOTE I am watching the otome-game all ends lead to death or whatever the actual title is LOL I guess can be considered a harem but it's done so well that I'm actually laughing at some of the stuff that happens (I also recommend that one too. The second season is airing this season)

Oh my gosh you just reminded me of something I did a lot in my childhood. So at my dad's house, he lived on a farm, there was swing he hung up in one of the trees for me to play on. So every weekend I was out there I would have my ipod mini hooked up with music from the CDs I stole from my sister to put on there and a few random anime songs and I would jam out swinging to it and imagining myself as a pokemon trainer, yugioh character, etc (mostly the animes from saturday morning cartoons, but I was also really into Inuyasha and Fruits Basket) for literally the whole day. I used to talk what I was saying to the characters out loud without realizing it because one day my dad asked me what I was even doing out there all the time talking to myself. Eventually I moved on and made my own universe and characters but I think that's why I really enjoyed writing fanfic and making my own characters up. I wrote most of mine by hand. I bet I have the notebooks somewhere in my house in a box because that's not something you can throw away. lol.

Yeah that's one reason I judge anime by the pictures. IKR I try to not judge by the characters anymore, but I can't help but cringe when 99% of the characters are big tiddy girls and one plain looking guy. Oh I also sometimes look up the openings because I am a sucker for good ops anyway, but sometimes you can tell a lot by the openings.

I rather have the squiggly red lines than autocorrect correcting get to GRT 500 times. like wth. stupid amazon fire tablet.

QuQ QuQ QuQ

Yeah if the grinding is tedious and boring, who wants to actually do it? xD And.....that's what I was askng you? I got a Pokemon.com email talking about Unite and I was like "WT ACTUAL F IS THIS?" Thought you knew lol. 8U I don't know what Arceus is about although I've heard of it? What's different or new about it? And aren't they remaking something? like Diamond/Pearl or whatever?
How was Sw/Sh lame? XD

I've never played Animal Crossing either although I swear that just about literally EVERYONE has jumped onto the bandwagon and played it lol.

For me its always about summary. From there, I can judge whether the genre is right for me, or something I would like to watch. The moment an anime becomes too fanservicey for me, I stop watching. XD I also try not to watch anything with too many big-boobed characters lol. One or two might be okay, as long as there's a balanced gender ratio in the anime. Reverse harems I might MIGHT go for but it really depends. And I know the one you're talking about, its something like Hamefura/Otome Game whatever. Where the MC is a reincarnator who has lots of mental mes inside her head debating over avoiding the death route lol.

Oh I used to talk a lot to myself, still do sometimes. My mom would give me weird looks and call me literally crazy because I'm talking to myself and there's noone else in the room. I also used to write everything by hand, I still know where all my written stuff is actually. However, I later typed most of it out so I could have a digital copy as well. xD That and I used to write primarily with pencil and pencil smudges and fades over time. I don't like using pen because its harder to erase when you make a mistake. And I don't like white out pen. xD

Yeah its like CRINGE like normal women do NOT have such large torpedoes unless they've got implants or something. Seriously, just like...can we get NORMAL body sizes? I should watch more openings too. I tend like listening to OSTs and stuff. Although most of the music I listen to now is like....Chinese music with traditional instruments like guzhengs/guqins or dizis and stuff.

I have soooo many red squiggly lines. xD I ignore most of them though. XD
