I sometimes click in some random clip of current anime someone uploaded on YouTube, like I dunno attack on titan or chainsaw dude, but that’s it. They look cool but despite having the time to watch it I just don’t feel compelled to watch the whole show.

I guess it’s like the Netflix virus, that you keep scrolling and picking what you wanna watch and at the end you don’t watch anything and go back to sleep. Plus, maybe it’s the depression, but I don’t like when things end most of the time. I feel empty, it doesn’t happen with movies but with anime happens, especially when the main character is a dude. The usual end is that he beats the bad guy (or triumphs in life if the show isn’t about punching people) gets the hot anime girl, and ends… I guess since I can’t get any of that irl it hits me hard.

    Well an incredible amount is released every season, but just like in the 90s not all is watchable and then only a few titles will appeal to you. Freiren is a new one that I think is up there with the greats but maybe you should try watching some comedy ones instead. Have you seen asobi asobase, uncle from another world or the remastered ranma 1/2 yet?

    I sometimes skip shows that I don’t feel I can mentally handle at the time and come back to them later. Part of mental health is adjusting your life to help get your mind back in shape.
