Well, it’s been interesting the last few months. Well, maybe interesting is the wrong word. Anyway, things here are decent enough. Everyone in the house is safe and we are staying inside. Mostly. I probably go for snack runs to the grocery store a bit too often but I’m very careful when I go out.
Anyway, in news not about the end of the world, I watched an older anime recently. A rewatch of an old favorite from 2002. Older art style and animation. Wasn’t exactly top of the line when it was new either, but I still liked it. Was interesting to see how my reaction has changed over the… almost two decades since I saw it the first time. The pacing was way slower than I remembered. I think it is mostly because of the lack of animation quality. I don’t mind slow pacing in slice of life anime, but in more modern anime the quality lets more detail and motion even in moments of nothing much happening. I still liked it, for the most part. Mostly for the same reason as I did way back when. The unconventional romance premise. Though I tend to like more modern stuff more these days. Nicer animation is just nicer, even when I sometimes don’t like the art style. Except for the new Fruits Basket. Original/First anime for life on that one.
Still, life continues. Depression comes and goes. Sleeping pattern wobbles around like a sipping top on drugs.
