i liked how if zorak didnt like a series he would make tons of snippy/misleading comments about them in the season thread OPs

Studio: Satelight. That anime about young anime girl idols fighting a regime of oppression by making songs and inspiring rebels or whatever continues. The irony also continues to be missed.

zorak seems like he got burnt out on anime around like 2009 and that's totally normal if you've been super-engaged with anime for like 9 years, but he just kind of kept modding an anime forum and going on an anime podcast until he turned into a bitter self-parody and even now he still goes on a weekly anime podcast to sigh loudly into a microphone

like, it's really weird whenever people on the internet go "why doesn't japan ever make media about college students or adults", instead of pointing to the tons of stuff that's like that, everyone goes on a weird rant about japan's unique problem of adult life being thought of as less fun and free than teenage life

because nobody has ever described your college years as "the best years of your life" in the us, ever

Breaks are good.

One time I took like a year-long break from anime. Since I've come back, I enjoy it even more.

I actually decided to check that podcast out and it wasn't the worst anime podcast I've listened to.

He didn't hate everything, and was positive about the subject of the episode I listened to

Unfortunately a review of Jojo that reviews it by summarizing what happens while making comments every now and then is, well

It's what all those internet reviewers do and it's lame!!

it's good to take breaks from things to decide if you really still enjoy it, or just need to not be engaged with that single interest for so much of the time

It's incredibly weird because we're seeing that sort of thing in the west too

Like with how Young Adult fiction is incredibly popular, even among people that are in their 20s and 30s.
