Geek in my 40s. He/Him
Huge nerd into Anime, Music, especially K-Pop and J-Pop, Craft Beer, physical media, reading (light novels/manga) and Joshi Wrestling.
I run a K-Pop blog at G-Nitro.com, and I co-host an Anime podcast called Otaku in Review (Find us on most Podcast platforms) with my friends Scott and Shannon
Avatar is of my Original Character Sati Kim doing a crown pose (like K-Pop group ITZY) with her hands. Banner shows my vinyl shelving collection. There are vinyls in IKEA Kallax shelves, and anime figures on top, along with K-Pop memorabilia. On the wall are K-Pop posters and albums being displayed.

Laurie Wired - The Original Sin of Computing...that no one can fix

"What if we can't trust ANY software...even if you have the source code?
A perfect, self-replicating "sin" passed down for generations of compilers. Invisibly compromised in every program.
It sounds like a spy novel; only it actually happened.
Ken Thompson, creator of UNIX, theorized how Code Auditing won't save you. This is how it works...and why it's already in the wild."

I just watched Chitose Is in the Ramune Bottle 1x01 "The Hazy Spring Moon Above" https://trakt.tv/shows/chitose-is-in-the-ramune-bottle/seasons/1/episodes/1 #ChitoseIsInTheRamuneBottle #trakt
Chitose Is in the Ramune Bottle Episode 1 Impressions
The show looks great, and the character designs pop. But the MC is kind of boring me, and monologues too much like I'm reading the light novel instead of watching the anime.
This show feels like it's trying to hard to be deep for an episode 1. Which is not working for me when the MC feels like such a Chad. I did laugh when he got called a manslut.
I'll be honest, I was ready to drop this at episode 1, but intrigued by the ending of the episode... And I don't mean the tourism promo at the end.

The fedi needs to make it easier for people to find people & with the announcement of the coming Mastodon 'packs' I was reminded about the Fedidevs starter packs
Anyone with a Mastodon account on any server can set up starter packs, or follow starter packs
They help people find people, especially with special topics, to boost followers & following. You don't need to be new, 'starter' is just the name it's called

Dusk Beyond the End of the World Episode 0 Impressions
Yeah not feeling the portrayal of AI here. Not saying I dislike anime with AI and androids, but damn did this first episode feel like some propaganda.
I don't know how the main series will go, but I'm passing on this one.

@tokuto @NaraMoore Welcome to Mastodon! Glad to have you with us. There are all sorts of manga readers here on Masto.
Me included :Hehe:
Just followed you.
A few things - Mastodon has no algorithm, so your feed will be in chronological order for whomever you follow. Second, use hashtags. It helps folks find you and what you are posting. Third, consider doing an intro post with the hashtag introduction to let people know a little about you (that you are down to share).
A few quick suggestions to get your feed a moving:

...and that's just to get you started! Welcome again to Mastodon!
I just checked out the last.fm page for South Korean indie/psychedelic rock band Guckkasten after shuffle play played one of my favourite songs by them, and discovered that they released a new album in September that I completely missed. Eleven years after their last one. Obviously it is #NowPlaying 🥰

My Status as an Assassin Obviously Exceeds the Hero's Episode 1 Impressions
I've read the light novels, so I've been looking forward to this series.
I got to say I was surprised by how visually striking this show is for an isekai adaptation. It looks really damn good from the characters to the backgrounds.
Episode 1 is a good setup for the MC and that something more is going on in the kingdom his class gets sent to. I look forward to seeing how this adaptation progresses. Definitely watching weekly.

A Mangaka's Weirdly Wonderful Workplace Episode 1 Impressions
Ended up tossing episode 1 of this on by chance, and I'm a bit conflicted. The show jumps back and forth between cute interactions with the characters to downright frustrating moments, especially with Futami.
The show spends way too much time on Futami's delusions and anxiety at times. The show manages to get the point across, then proceeds to ram it down our throats just in case we didn't get it.
I'll probably check out another episode or 2 because I do genuinely like the characters overall.

Dad is a Hero, Mom is a Spirit, I'm a Reincarnator Episode 1 Impressions
I was excited for this one, as I've been wanting to check out the manga for a long time and just haven't for some reason. The family dynamic of Rovel, Origin, and Ellen is super adorable.
I love how this show expanded upon the initial story setup as the episode progressed.
Overall this was super fun and cute. I love the humor for the most part. The fat and ugly jokes of the dad's ex at the end weren't necessary at all, especially since they already set her up to be a horrible person.
