 Food good, reactions to food, bad, bad, bad.

7/10. I've seen better. I know nothing will top Yakitake!! Japan! but oh, I will always miss that show and how it's the clearly the best food show.

 Intriguing! Weird, but intriguing!

8/10, because the last episode really pulls everything together in a very pleasing way.

Bye-bye Mitsubari

 It's a quick read, but it's nice. Nothing special though.

6/10. Probably wouldn't read it again, but it was fine.

Year In Review, 2020

 This isn't quite a Checklist/Roundup  post, but it's something. I hope 2021 is a better year for me than this year, although, I genuinely don't think it's been that bad -- for me, anyway. (Still haven't gotten a new job though...)
  • I'd like to find a way to balance watching anime, reading manga, watching television, live action and cartoon, and reading a book all in the span of one month TBH. If I'm honest, I'd like to balance out watching one at a time, but on the other hand, I'm not great at dedicating myself like that. I definitely have a short attention span.
Anime series I'd like to finish within the year:
  1. Initial D (I definitely stopped watching these, but hopefully I can pick it up. I have two more series to go, I think?)
  2. Dog Days (I hate this series, but I also... want to finish what I started.)
  3. Dragon Ball (Super, maybe?)
  4. Fullmetal Panic (I don't like this show, but still. Want to finish.)
  5. Gundam (Maybe? I know they're mostly unrelated, but I'm still... curious.)
  6. Natsume Yunjinchou. (It is a nice show.)
  7. Saint Seiya
  8. Shokugeki no Soma (Again, I dislike, but I want to finish what I started.)
  9. A Certain Railgun series (I mean, if I watched A Certain Magical Index, hopefully this version is better? And there's Accelerator too.)
Anime series, still on hiatus, and might complete within the year:
  1. Bleach
  2. Bo-bo-bo
  3. Naruto Shippuden
  4. Rockman.EXE
Technically, there's One Piece, but-- I think it just might be best to pick that up after it's finished. IDK how long it's going to be, and I feel like -- at least when I dropped it, the pace in the anime, though not the manga, became really glacial. Nothing happens, and just, ugh. That's the worst. I genuinely might save Naruto: Shippuden for next year, because I. I don't like Naruto that much.

Cartoon, wise:
  • I didn't really watch much cartoons this year! Oh jeez. Hm. I've already written a list of which ones I think I put on hiatus, it would be nice to see if I can get through them eventually.
KDramas wise:
  • Here's the thing, I want to knock my viewing down to watching two series at a time -- one on Netflix, and the other on Viki, and currently I'm on three, because I want to make my Plan-To-Watch list shorter, but ah, who knows? That's definitely the plan.

Manga series, wise.
  • I've decided to divide up between reading one manga that I put on hiatus that is now finished, and a new manga that I've always wanted to read but never got round to it per month. Hopefully that will help. 
  • I don't know if I'd ever get back to reading an ongoing manga, but I genuinely think I might with Ao No Exorcist. That being said, I'm more than happy to wait the long-con game and wait until a series is over before I start reading.
TV wise:
  • Honestly, watching Dark Shadows and Betty La Fea are my only real interests, and both of those are really freaking long. I know there'll be other TV shows that will probably generate my interest, but we'll see what happens.
I'm going to have to get round to gaming too. Hmm. With gaming, I can probably knock off some to-listen to podcasts. Mostly, replaying, then.
  • Tales of Graces
  • Final Fantasy XIII and the sequel
  • Tales of Symphonia
  • Star Ocean 4
