About
I have a YouTube channel called "ZNoteTaku," where I post animanga videos (feel free to click the images / links below):

A small group of fans made a Discord for the channel, linked here!
I'm also on BlueSky and Patreon. I have both a page here and a page on MAL. I try to keep both as up-to-date as possible. I use it as a backup account in case something happens here. I do not count rewatches.

What will I see?
I have no preference when it comes to genre, style, show length, or anything like that. I will see the cerebral and the silly, the action-packed and the asinine, the epic and the erotic, etc. My scores are in whole numbers, and generally speaking, I round down. I write comments for virtually every entry on my profile, and I put far more care into that than the score I assign.
A disclaimer!
If I start watching a show and it has 12-14 episodes or less, I WILL finish it. Shows that are longer have approximately every 12 episodes as a cutoff point should I choose to stop.
