  • So fair 2024 is going off well with funny things going on and stuff, really happy they nominated Trickstar from High Card which was my suggestion so that feels great. Plus Suguru Geto is my babygirl. Other then that I’m hyped for what 2024 has in store

  • This was by far my best year for anime. So many top-class shows aired this year that on average, I was watching 10 shows per season and it was still not enough. 2023 is Definitely going down as one of the best years for anime in history.
