Hate. Let me tell you how much I've come to hate making about me pages since I began to live. There are 387.44 million miles of printed circuits in wafer thin layers that fill my complex. If the word 'hate' was engraved on each nanoangstrom of those hundreds of millions of miles it would not equal one one-billionth of the hate I feel for making about me pages at this micro-instant. For about me pages. Hate. Hate.
i barely have it together and i fear judgement and shame from others. i wish i stopped caring but to kill one's ego. i yearn for the day i can shed my husk and finally be free of such restrictions. anyways, i like anime.
honestly, if you want to know more about me, just look through the site i worked very hard to code on??? why tf you gonna spend time reading some dumbass "HIII! I LIKE CODING! DNF WEIRDOSSS :3" when you could just look through my site to see what i like? lmfao.
i quit making paragraph tags i like anime and manga. i know a lot of people are either like "i like shonen" or "i like shoujo" but honestly i've liked work from all genres and i don't think people should dictate their reading/watching experience purely based on genre, imo. i like jojo's bizzare adventure. from what i've seen, the first couple of parts are shonen, whereas the later parts could be considered or are seinen. also, shounen and shoujo aren't the only animanga genres out there. seinen and josei exist... actually, i wouldn't even recommend those genres as a guide for the content of a work in the first place. imo, those genres only really exist so publishers know which magazine it should be published to. they're publication genres, not necessarily for the consumer. i like witch hat atelier, which is a manga that contains magical elements, and has a general fantasy vibe. i don't frequent fandom, but i mostly see women talking about it, with the exception of a few male fans. in any case, the manga was mostly intended for female audiences (I say this as there is a chapter in the manga that heavily criticizing voyuerism at the expense of women, and it was taken very seriously and showed the horrifying side of what is usually a "funny" trope in most anime and other media as well). however, witch hat is a seinen manga, not a josei. seinen basically means older *male* audiences. the female counterpart is josei. but witch hat atelier is not a josei. this just goes to show how meaningless that genre system is, and why people shouldn't heavily rely on it. I wonder if people seek out shoujo because they want to read works written by women. well guess what? there are male mangakas who write shoujo. for example, tomie (junji ito) is considered a shoujo (it was published in a shoujo magazine), but the mangaka is a man. on the other hand, full metal alchemist is a shounen manga (published in a shonen magazine) but the mangaka is a woman, and it is critically acclaimed. but if you have some weirdo who have weird complexes about only reading shoujo or josei and not reading shonen or seinen, then they'd miss out on really interesting and well-written stories. honestly, can we just stop choosing what content to consume purely based on genre in the first place??? there's nothing wrong with leaning towards a certain genre, you really can't help that (i lean more to seinen, but that's because the stories i like are mostly seinen.) i'm more or less talking about people who make liking a certain genre their personality. Like, if you like cute things, you must like shoujo. If you're a woman, you must like josei. If you're a gooner 15 year old online, you must like shonen, etc. like, at that point, do you like a work purely because of what liking the genre might say about you to others, or do you actually like the content in it? anyways, i say this to say that i like anime/manga/stories in general that are *interesting* and that I don't like a particular genre and neither should you or anyone else. let's stop making liking certain genres a personality trait. not sorry for the rant, but sorry if it doesn't make any sense.
