How I evaluate the anime I watch or the manga I read.
I must mention that I'm not the kind of individual who evaluates each and every anime and manga on each and every aspects of it. It is true that I believe the majority of them don't deserve giving them so much attention anyway, but even the highest scored anime and manga from my lists weren't analysed in a dissection kind of way. Most of the time I base my ratings on my general appreciation of the work, yet it remains accurate to say that I try to judge pretty much everything else – that I care for – in a very rational way. Nonetheless, despite the fact that I don't analyze everything in details, I still believe that I am able to tell the difference between the overall quality of a work and the enjoyment I get out of it.
It's presently quite self-evident that I don't consider myself to be some significant critic, however, I still sometimes think – in some delusional moments – that I should do it in the right way, analyzing every aspects correctly, but I'm mostly lack any kind of motivation to accomplish such achievements on a weekly or monthly basis. Maybe one day I'll still let you enjoy some reviews of my own but it's very unlikely. At this very moment, I have only written one, but it was because I wanted people to discover a manga that I thought wasn't well known enough for what it was, and if I write an another review in the future, it will probably be with this in mind. I'm not going to review any anime or manga that everyone knows about, otherwise there would be no interest to do so. I principally see reviews as a way to discover works to other users, so there's no point at all in adding reviews to anime and manga which already have a good amount of constructive ones.
To continue on this aspect, even if I don't do a personal work of it, I still try to rate the works that I watch or read in a fairly objective way, which often conclude in giving low ratings compared to the standard of other users of this site, although anyone's opinion can never be empty of bias when it comes to entertainment, so take it with a grain of salt. But unlike those arrogant pseudo-intellectuals that I came accross through the years, all my rates are legitimate and really represents what I think of the works, and are neither an attempt to seem "superior" to anyone's eyes nor a try to simply piss people off. I actually use a full-scale rating for my own use, and not with any bad intentions.
But in the end, it doesn't really bother me if you don't like me or even hate me because of my ratings but you aren't obliged to expose it on my profile by harshly criticizing me that I'm wrong to give a low score to something you like, or even because I gave an excellent rating to something you dislike. I hope that this isn't your case, since we need as most open-minded people as possible on this site, something that we clearly lack apparently. It may seem excessive to explain all of this but apparently, anime is some serious business for some people.
My tastes in terms of anime and manga.
As I said earlier, anyone can't be empty of bias when it comes to score entertainement, and genre preferences are generally the major influences of it, so it might be interesting for you to know what I like the most and what I like least.
To begin with, from as far as I can remember, I always had a strong attraction towards science fiction. All these stories occurring in a nearby or distant future always fascinated me. It may seems weird but, during my childhood, I always thought science fiction was a wonderful way to get away from my own mortality. I could read stories from the future, from when I would be long gone, following characters that aren't even born yet. As I got older, my interest towards this genre increased tenfold, and nowadays, this is still what I tend to appreciate the most. When we remain in the literary field, I would say I am more hard sci-fi oriented, but in general there's no categories or subgenres that I have yet to precisely dislike.
Secondly, I quite enjoy watching sports anime, even if I must admit that I never really was into sports when I was in elementary school. I thought it was boring since there was nothing creative in it, you could only follow the same rules indefinitely. I remember that, instead, during our playtime at school, me and some friends, we would imagine all kinds of worlds and play the roles of all kind of characters, running and jumping around the school yard. I wouldn't call it doing theater, since it was pretty improvised and we didn't want any spectators but this is the closest word I can think of to define it. We were simply having fun with our imagination, and I had too much of it anyway, it would have been a waste not putting it to work. But, of course, as I became an adolescent, things changed. Although I was still as creative as before, I surprisingly started to get interested in sports – in baseball for exemple and also in boxing later on – but it was more to have fun than anything else, and also to keep me in shape. So when I become aware of the existance of sports anime – thanks to MAL database – it didn't take long enough for me to begin watching some of them. But I must say that when I'm watching, or sometimes reading, these stories, a drama oriented plot is required, or at least very recommended, along with a cast of characters that is more than useless sidekicks to the protagonist. I consider comedy in these stories to still be welcome if these two previous criteria are fulfilled, as in Major or Hajime no Ippo for exemple. I've also pretty much only watched baseball and boxing anime right now since other sports don't really interest me very much.
However, I still watch and read works of almost any types, excepted things connected to eroticism even if it has already happened numerous time that I watched anime or read manga including fanservice. I wouldn't say that I automatically dislike all anime and manga containing this kind of content but I clearly don't support authors who seek to fill their poor scriptwriting talents by using such scenes as their primary sales factor. But any anime or manga that actually have a plot that isn't focused on fanservice in any way but still use it here and there is still fine with me, even if I would still prefer them to be free of that if there's no real purpose for the scenario. I greatly doubt that this is the best manner to say it but if I want to see those kind of things, there are many more convenient ways, if you know what I mean.
If I continue on which genre displease me, it may be a little too specific, but I could say that I'm not attracted at all toward medieval fantasy stories. I used to read a few novels from this subgenre when I was younger but I never really got into it. I thought that they were all really uninteresting. I don't even remember what were the titles or authors of those books. This is the exact reason for why I still didn't watch anime like Claymore or Berserk yet. It's just not my cup of tea. It would be therefore appropriate to refrain yourself from engaging conversation with me about stories like Game of Thrones or The Lord of the Rings, as I also always found them rather tiresome. There are also a more few things on the list of what don't attract me, but they are for most all genres or subgenres that don't attract a very big fanbase from the very start, such as mahou shoujo for exemple.
It's as far as it gets for the anime and manga genres and since it would take an eternity to define and correclty describe all the factors behind my tastes, I think it would be preferable that we conclude this as what it is right now. I hope that you have by now a better comprehension of them, or at least, a less confused one. And ultimately, my tastes can still change over time, maybe it will take another directions through the years, so don't take what I just said as if was all set in stone. Maybe someday my bookshelf will have Tolkien's books right next to my Asimov's novels, we never know.
Others useless information about me you don't really need to know.
There are countless things I could tell you about me, from my greatest passions to my deepest thoughts, but it would be more proper, for at least with this first paragraph, to stay on the main topic of this website. First of all, I believe this is something quite recurrent, I just don't like to represent myself as an anime fan in real life. I certainly don't act toward it as if it was the worst taboo to have ever existed yet I obviously don't openly declare it to the whole world, shouting it from the rooftoops. I just prefer to keep my energy for more useful things, by not having to defend a fandom with such a bad reputation. Only some of my friends who are also anime fan will be aware as I continue to anonymously watch anime.
Also, it's not related to anime in any way whatsoever, but I think it's important enough to mention. I won't talk about my political views as well as if I have religious beliefs of any kind or not on this website. Unfortunately, wherever you go there is always a countless amount of people fulfilled by prejudice for those who have different opinions and beliefs, their hatred often controlling them, so I would rather don't even say a word about my kind of views on those topics. Maybe that some of you may find this exaggerated but this is also one of my main rules that I even apply in real life. Some would say as well that I shouldn't worry about what other people think, and they are probably right. But my lazy mind is saying that if I can avoid myself some hazardous situations, why should I do otherwise?
Perhaps that you have noticed it while reading the two first paragraph, but I'm not someone who likes to argue with others very much. Even more if it's over the internet with people I don't know personally. It may still happens once in a blue moon, with a sudden burst of motivation to do useless things, but it never last long. And if you actually try to have a debate with me on whatever subject, you will probably just bore me, so don't.
I could finally give you some information about my personnality, but I unfortunately don't have a lot to say. I tend to see myself as your typical average and boring human being, even if I vainly wished all through my youth that it wasn't the case. But if I could summarize myself, I would say that I am a humble and open-minded individual, or at least, that I'm doing everything I can to be a good person and to improve myself as the mere human I am, despite the immensity of the insignifiance of my existance in the universe. I may still remain flawed and biased on a lot of different aspects and opinions, but this is precisely why I act this way. I prefer to die as someone who tried to be better for himself and the people around him rather than being a complete asshole who didn't deploy any efforts to make himself less worst. Which make it even more deplorable to see that some people are going in the complete opposite direction, trying to be as bad as they can to screw up their mentality, trying to be as much emotionless as possible toward others. I prefer to keep and cherish my moral integrity than being some fucked up psycopath wannabe who tries to minimize the gravity of others suffering while making fun of it. Life is too short to be wasted in such a stupid way. I fully intend to enjoy the few decades I will spent on this planet whitout being a bitter, unsentimental and unfeeling person, with negativity lurking all around his mind.
At this point, if you want more information about me, it would be better if we know each other more personally. So as a conclusion for this last blog entry of my profile, taking into consideration that you have read every of them, I hope that you're satisfied with your reading, and never forget that the door is always open if you simply want to discuss, it'll be a pleasure, whatever the subject may be.
Tanaka has worked on many anime such as Akira, Roujin Z, Batman: Gotham Knight and has worked as a director for Genius Part and Genius Party Beyond. Hope to see more of his work in the future.

Hello there. My name's Ducat Revel. I'm an English graduate, majored in Creative Writing. Don't talk to me about literature though, because I'm not too well read. I love Homestuck, Pokemon, Wind Waker, Minecraft, Anime & Manga, Film, and Music. I'm painful aggressive when it comes to criticism. Primarily, I judge anime and manga with the use of Formalism and New Criticism, but I don't limit myself to just those. Also, don't ask me for anything I've wrote. Currently, I'm focusing on Fiction, specifically short stories. It's a slow process so don't expect anything. I'm also an admin in 
Tom Cruise takes place in high rate chases after including phalanxes of bikes as well as autos making barrette turns and also galumphing down rock actions in Istanbul, or is it Paris, or Greater london? The filmmakers constantly inform you the nation plus the city-- like they actually should claim Vienna, Austria, to make sure that you really did not consider the Vienna State Concert hall as well as believe you remained in Vienna, Virginia-- however as in the James Bond and also Jason Bourne films, the place is not of much relevance, other than inasmuch as it could provide spots for Tom Cruise as well as his opponents to combat in, race through and also periodically degree.
Just like the majority of exactly what he does, Cruise constantly really feels like he's providing it every little thing he's obtained, and also he remains to make Ethan Hunt's journeys appealing after 2 full years in the duty. I was happy by this end to end up, and also I prepare on seeing it once more in IMAX when feasible.
Can Ilsa be relied on to function both sides versus the center while Hunt as well as his team function their means up the Eurobaddie food web to Lane as well as clear their names back in the house? Cruise's franchise business is as well important to Paramount to ever before place that inquiry unsure. However like all you can watch Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation online free on 
Therefore Ethan, except the very first time, should go in Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation online, expanding an unfeasibly hairy beard as well as contacting the surreptitious aid of his reliable employees to locate his only web link to the Syndicate, unblinking nutjob Solomon Lane.
Rogue Nation watch online flexes completely back to the TELEVISION collection for the bad guy. The Syndicate, a bad mirror of the IMF, was teased at the end of Ghost Protocol. Below, it takes spotlight under the management of a corrupt ex-spouse British representative. On the other hand, Stateside, CIA supervisor Hunley is successful in obtaining the IMF's charter withdrawed as well as having actually the representatives taken in right into his company. Ethan Hunt, globetrotting in Europe chasing after the Syndicate, declines to can be found in from the cold. He is quickly participated expatriation by Benji Dunn as well as, later on, by William Brandt and also Luther Stickell. Hunt's examination leads him to the gorgeous, fatal Ilsa, which at the same time aids as well as unmasks him, triggering him to wonder about whether she's a British broker, a dual representative, or a three-way representative.
A team as unsafe as its name is boring, the Syndicate is manned specifically by missing out on or assumed dead previous federal government scouts like the Bone Doctor, which's there to harm you, not aid you. Certainly, the Grand Guignol series where Ethan and also Ilsa initially go across courses as 2 shapes functioning the wings as well as rigging of the Vienna State Opera while a murder effort plays bent on 'Nessun Dorma', is MI5's emphasize.

Lugal-Kitun is, rather surprisingly and in contrast to her predecessor, humble and empathetic. She is a gentle woman with a fine understanding of detail in both form and mind. She exudes an air of nobility about her, and her actions and mannerisms are all prim and proper. Her diction is flowery and somewhat archaic, indicating a tendency to favor things that are grandiose. Lugal-Kitun is a person hardened by war and thus is capable of entering into a mindset most acclimated for battle, but as a person she is quite emotional. She is a capricious romantic, and greatly cherishes all that is related to love. In addition, she is rather compassionate and has a distinct sense of justice, especially towards those who are weaker than her. She is somewhat idealistic, and is easily moved by grand tales or tragedy.
