Almost started to reply to some stuff on page one before I realized it was page one >_> (Some of it I'm sure I responded to in the past.)

At any rate, still binging through some manga. Found a few half-decent horror anthologies (none as fun as Gakkou Kaidan) and re-read a few others (Mimi's Ghost Stories is great and, despite having read it before, I was surprised by how little I remembered about what actually happened -- partly because I was binging a lot of stuff at the time; I'll also admit that I sometimes forget what an absolute talent Junji Ito is).

Ofc, that also lead me into reading more conventional manga and... well, so much of that shit is depressing on a meta-level. It's a lot of wish fulfillment stuff that panders to a lonely youth audience.

Then I started reading this really awful MMO manga (its listed name is just RPG, but I'm sure it has a less generic name) that, honestly, looks like it could be a crappy webcomic (especially since the reading order seems to be left-to-right instead of right-to-left; in fact, if not for the terrible dialogue that looks like it's the victim of bad scanlating and the kanji in the actual title, I would have just assumed it was American). Everybody in it is making such a big deal about the game and assigning it crazy importance when there's a whole fucking world out there... and that's probably the biggest bringdown of all: I realize that I'm reading a manga about people playing a video game >_> The fuck am I doing with my time? And you know the worst part? Deep down, I know I'm probably going to read the whole fucking thing.

Idk, I should really stay away from any anime that is primarily a romance because it seems the only way any author can stretch a romance to 12 episodes is with massive amounts of miscommunication, love triangles, and NTR.
