I finished Odd Taxi

as expected, it wasn't particularly my vibe, but I liked it well enough. I was all ready to post how it was a show that I'd watch and then instantly forget but I think the last episode will actually stick with me for a while

You definitely have. Even if it was just a little I think adtrw did get better under your modship. Julias was a great mod too, but the past couple months there's been a more "improved" feeling to the sub, but that's just me.

next up for me is Cross Ange, which nobody said would be particularly good and I think was recommended as a joke, but the blurb on wikipedia spoke to me so I'm going out on a limb for it

the first few episodes set a weird tone and there's a couple awkward moments later on but it legitimately gets pretty enjoyable after that bumpy start, i like the cast and the plot's a lot wilder than some other contemporary mecha anime

Whichever admin does the perma, make it so the perma doesn't get rid of his av. I know that's a thing that's done for goons that die and poo poo.

just saying gently caress it and getting out of this place, huh? can't say I blame you, there's still cool people left on SA but there's definitely a stronger contingent of miserable fuckers than there used to be. or at least a smaller ratio of regular vs shithead users.

Oh, speaking of not that at all, when my shrink asked about what hobbies I had, I found out that she knows what manga is.
That's it, that's all there is to the story.

In lighter news I've been binge reading a bunch of romcom manga I used to love and it turns out Bonnouji is exactly as perfect as I remembered it being so that's good at least.
Bonnouji is very powerful.

I liked the 2 months where we had some random admin as mod who went “ok don’t be weird” and nothing happened

Not sure they ever read the sub to keep us honest tbh

Yeah, Xylo. I remember one poster decided to celebrate Zorak's leaving by making a Cinderella Girls thread. Xylo was going to close it but he was so impressed with the op giving a description of every single girl in the game that he let it stay open.

I’ve told my irl friends about cross ange and that it’s good. I don’t think they’ll try to watch it though because even though they liked the gundam comp movies they didn’t want to watch the series and I don’t think they watch anime that often so oh well.

I mean if you read between the lines of his woe is me posts he got yelled at for not doing his job earlier and for doing it badly, so they're merely appreciative that only filthy adtrw outsiders were moderated I guess.

Nobody should inflict Cross Ange on their friends, especially the first 5-6 episodes.
