I've been in this burning hell, rotting away watching anime since 2020.

My taste in animanga has changed quite a bit since I got in this hobby, getting more and more into the mecha genre is certainly one of them (though I'm pretty sure this is not surprising if you look at my profile). In any case, my standards for what constitutes a good anime aren't really solid, I tend to like most of the stuff I watch as long as there's an entertainment value to be had or I'm watching a particularly engrossing story. My stats on Anilist include Sci-Fi, Action and Drama as my top genres and that's pretty much spot on for the shows I usually gravitate towards but I also enjoy stuff like Iyashikei Slice of Life, Psychological Thrillers and Mystery shows. I'm more of an anime watcher than I am a manga reader but I'm trying to get more into the latter by picking up the manga of shows I really enjoyed.

Other hobbies

As of 2021, I started collecting model kits, mainly Gunpla and other brands like Moderoid as well as some posable figures most of which I've published pictures of both here and in my MFC. I'd like to branch out into other types of kits once I feel more confident in my skills.

I'm a lifelong history buff and a fan of military things like WW2 history. Both things have deeply molded the type of entertainment I grew up with and routinely engage with. For example, I tend to play a lot of shooters focusing on realism (Red Orchestra, Squad, Post Scriptum) as well as real time strategy games like HOI4 or the Red Alert games.
War films, speaking of movies are also among my top choices but I've tried to branch out in recent years into other genres.

Lastly, my musical taste is deeply rooted in the Rock genre, like Progressive, Indie, Retro, Heavy Metal and in other languages like Spanish and Russian. I also dabble into some pop songs here and there as well as Japanese City Pop, Synthwave, Classical music and Anime/Videogame Soundtracks.
