Anime journey:
I’ve been watching anime since I was a kid, but back then, I didn’t really know what anime was — it was just cool shows on TV that I loved. Titles like Pokémon, Naruto, and Dragon Ball Z pulled me in early. The energy, the fights, the characters… I was hooked without even realizing it.Everything changed around 2019. That’s when I really started watching anime consciously. I kicked things off with The Seven Deadly Sins, then moved on to The Familiar of Zero, Teasing Master Takagi-san, and No Game No Life. That’s when my anime journey truly began — from that point on, the number of anime I watched began to grow fast, and my taste in genres expanded along with it.My favorite genre is isekai, and the show that made me fall in love with anime on a deeper level was Re:Zero. Subaru’s story, the way the world unfolds, the emotional layers — it pulled me in completely. Since then, anime hasn’t just been something I watch — it’s something I connect with. If you’re curious about what resonates with me most, you can find my favorite characters in my profile’s favorites section.Nowadays, anime is a big part of my daily life. I usually watch one anime at a time, which helps me stay immersed in the world, focus on the details, and really absorb the story. It keeps me on the edge of my seat without losing that “first-time” magic or burning out. If I end up watching more than one at once, it’s usually because something new is airing weekly or a new season just dropped.Even though I watch anime almost every day, it doesn’t stop me from enjoying everything else I’m passionate about — music (piano & guitar), gaming, sports, hanging out, and more. Anime actually lifts me up. It gives me motivation, helps me reflect, and even encourages me to keep going with the rest of my life. It’s a hobby that makes the others better.And more than just entertainment, anime has helped shape the way I think. I’ve taken pieces from characters whose mindsets left a deep mark on me — Ayanokoji’s calm logic, Subaru’s relentless perseverance, Hachiman Hikigaya’s sharp realism, and Houtarou Oreki’s quiet insight. Their down-to-earth perspectives taught me that it’s okay to be different, to think deeper, and to move at your own pace — but also to grow past your limits. Anime helped me realize I can build my own mindset too, one grounded in strength, self-awareness, and purpose.Even while being a full-time student in university, staying active in STEM, sports, extracurriculars, honors college, and pre-med, I’ve managed to keep anime as a source of balance and inspiration. I genuinely believe it’s taught me more than people would think — about emotion, perspective, resilience, empathy. It’s helped me grow, and it’s something I’ll probably never stop loving.Anime made me realize I’m the MC of my life, and watching it encourages me to live it to the best. The more anime I watch, the more I want to live it. Anime encourages me to live my life, which is exactly why I’ll never stop watching anime.
Watch Style:
Binge-watcher.Prefer dub, but I’ll watch sub if there’s no dub available.
I always finish what I start — I don’t drop anime.
Sometimes I rewatch favorites, especially if a new season is coming.
Ratings:
Scores are based on personnel enjoyment, nothing more.? Alex’s Personal AniList Rating System (1.0–10.0)? Personal Philosophy:I love anime. Every series I watch brings something to the table — a story, a moment, or even just a vibe that makes it worth the time. While I may score some anime lower than others, know that I still find almost all anime enjoyable and meaningful. The only true “trash” is an extreme rarity. My ratings reflect my personal connection, experience, and entertainment, not objective quality.Rating Scale Breakdown:
10.0 — “Peak of Peaks”✨ One of the greatest series of all time.
My all-time favorites. My own "Big 4." Emotionally resonant, memorable, and close to perfect in my eyes. The best anime experiences I’ve had.Exceeds on all fronts: story, characters, impact, rewatchability.
9.0–9.9 — “Elite Tier”? Profoundly impactful. Top 10-worthy.
Series that left a strong impression on me — deep themes, artistic storytelling, or insane emotional grip. Very few flaws. These are unforgettable.8.0–8.9 — “Amazing”? Personal immersion / Artistic creativity.
Shows that wowed me creatively or emotionally. Maybe they didn’t hit every box, but they made the journey unforgettable. Could be a hidden gem or personal classic.7.0–7.9 — “Very Good”? Very memorable / Well-executed.
Fun, enjoyable, and worth recommending. Maybe didn’t blow my mind, but I looked forward to every episode. Could’ve had flaws, but the pros outweighed the cons.6.0–6.9 — “Good”? Thoroughly enjoyable, but not remarkable.
Solid anime. Some ups and downs, but still left a good impression overall. These may have pacing issues or character inconsistencies, but I still had a great time.5.0–5.9 — “Decent / Average”? Still a good time. Just not too memorable.
Some flaws, but I didn’t regret watching it. Had cool moments or ideas that made it worth finishing. This is where the majority of anime starts.4.0–4.9 — “Enjoyable but Weak”? Not great, but still watchable.
These shows had noticeable flaws or failed to hook me all the way — maybe in story, characters, or pacing — but I still found something to like. Maybe a character, a theme, or just the vibe. Wouldn’t watch again, but I don’t regret finishing it.3.0–3.9 — “Messy but Watchable”? Very flawed, but not hopeless.
Poorly executed, awkward pacing, or frustrating writing. But it still had a few enjoyable moments that kept me watching — or at least finishing — out of curiosity or stubbornness.2.0–2.9 — “Painful Watch”? Barely made it through.
One of the few I really disliked. Writing, pacing, or animation dragged everything down. It felt like a chore to finish.1.0–1.9 — “The Exception (Actual Trash)”? Almost never given.
This is reserved for anime I found truly unwatchable, offensive, or disrespectful to my time. These are the rare cases that broke through my love for anime of never ranking an anime terrible.I’m still waiting for the F-S ranking system, I’d probably very likely would switch to it.

Quotes:
- Subaru Natsuki
Bullshit! What do you know?! What the hell do you actually know about me?! Huh?! Nothing! I’ll tell you what kind of man I really am! I have no strength, but I want it all. I have no knowledge, but all I do is dream. There's nothing I can do, but I struggle in vain! I hate myself! All I do is talk a big game, and make myself sound like a big shot when I can't do anything! I never do anything, yet I can complain like a pro. Who do I think I am?! Amazingly, I can live like this and not feel ashamed! Right! Im empty... There's nothing inside me at all! I know that... Yea, that's obvious... I know it's obvious... Before I came here... Before I got into the situation that led me to all of you, do you have any idea what I did? I did nothing... Ive never done a single thing. I had all that time, all that freedom... I could have done anything, but I never did anything. And this is the result! What I am now is the result! All of my powerlessness, all of my incompetence, is the product of my rotten character. Wanting to accomplish something, when I`ve never done anything, goes beyond the limit of arrogance! The cost of all my laziness and all the wasteful habits in my life just ends up killing both you and me. That's right. I have no character. Even when I thought I could go on living here, nothing changed...
