I can say the same for you. Also you seem to have quite the liking towards Ghibli's works. In my opinion most of their movies are simply great and pack a strange feeling of nostalgia even while watching them for the first time.

Well from what I have heard it is definitely possible to improve one's vocal abilities...you are just way more limited comapred to more gifted individuals. But that's the way it is with everything.

Definitely the Organ. One of my best friends is quite the prodigy when it comes to musical ability in general so I know how versatile these skills can be. Learning to play the piano would also be much easier in this case. My favorite music-playing character....I honestly don't have one. I mean the only anime with a focus on music that I have watched is probably "Your lie in April" and I have a lot of problems with the characters there. I can't think of anything else at the moment either...

Nope I haven't. I doubt I'd have the time as I ahve a huge stock of books I want to read just lying around. But I know how the story progresses and I would have loved to see that animated.

A love for Spice and Wolf is always deeply appreciated damn I love that show.

My favorite series would probably be Zelda followed by Fire Emblem and Pokemon

I have to say I'll take Mayuri but the rest can leave. No need for that.

Smash was too drawn out in my opinion. Fire Emblem on the other hand looks amazing. Mario Party seems to go back to its roots which is gonna make a lot of fans happy. Overall rather disappointed with the presentation.

You have marvelous taste!!

Well I can't say why many people like it but I can certainly give you the reaon for why I personally like it so much. First of all I have to point out the stellar direction (I know nothing that tackles any of your points but worth mentioning). It plays with your expectations (see the café scene) along with those of Oreki the protagnoist. The art is simply beautiful and while the animation isn't excellent all the time when it needs to be good it can be really good. The soundtrack is quite varied and fits whenever it's used plus I'm a fan of both OPs and the second ending but that is obviously quite subjective. So much for all the "technical stuff". While it's not necessarily a mystery show in the classical sense its mysteries (which can be classified as such since they follow the formula of Question-> Clues -> Deduction -> Solution) in and of themselves aren't the main focus. They serve more as a developmental tool to develop/establish characters which is quite the interesting usage of a mystery in my opinion. In that ssense it's more of a slife of life character "study" than anythig else. Something which can be intriguing in its own right. As such it doesn't need an overly extensive focus on Drama or Comedy as that would only ruin the special atmosphere it has. It's a moderate show for sure (save for quite interesting and symbolic visuals at times such as whenever Oreki has his "hallucinations") but that for me is its strong suit. It's not over the top (although I can appreciate that as well), its characters compliment each other wonderfully, it has quite the good amount of messages regarding personal conflict, lifestyle choices and society (although the ladder one is debatable as its only really tackled through its effects on the character's psyche and personality). What can I say I really like the show.

Quite the fine taste you have there.

Well I did know of this site before MAL went down. I just didn't see a reason to migrate here before MAL went offline. Now I simply use both,

Well...I like their narrative structure. And the themes really resonate with me. But I see your point. Some can be eomtionally drainig I suppose?

Rather ambitious when it comes to future plans but with a knack for Slice of life and Drama.
