Kuromukuro is real for having the 450 year old (18 y/o) samurai only have the internet for a few hours by the time he tells someone to kill themselves.

What is the Japanese manga and anime writers’ fascination calling their butler-ward characters with Sebastian and a French-sounding name?

To watch next if you want and haven't already:

Gintama (start at "Nobody With Naturally Wavy Hair Can Be That Bad"/"Tennen pāma ni warui yatsu wa inai" (Japanese: 天然パーマに悪い奴はいない) as the introduction episode is just confusing to first-time watchers somehow)

Saber Marionette J (I've never seen the English dub though so I can't comment on it if watch dub, but according to TV Tropes is it awful)

Kuromukuro (one of the best mech series)

Full Metal Panic (the other best mech series)

Darker than Black (I need someone to talk about the emotional damage it gave me with)

Noragami (same)

Durarara (I found it really confusing at first)

Take care ^^

Ohh nice recs!! I'll put in a call for suggestions next week and then I'll put up a poll of the most popular ones to decide.

[stacotto]

Welp, guess I can add Metallic Rouge to my list of "anime that had fantastic potential but then completely squandered it" alongside ID-0, Kuromukuro, and Aldnoah.Zero.

2023 Jan 30 -Lucid Dream: Sinbad Adventure Island

*Traditional art from my dream sketchbook

I had a dream where it was announced that there was going to be a special event involving Sinbad. Many fans -me included- hoped it would explain what actually happens to Sinbad in the end of Magi, and if he stayed dead, or was able to come back like the omake art suggests.

I found out about the event on my phone in the living room. I immediately looked at Lyly and told them, "I have to go. Tumblr knows I'm Simpbad. My reputation is at stake."

To which they deadpanned, "Bro, it's your dream. I'm not going to stop you."

Since the Sinbad event was happening at a convention with other special anime events Lyly invited Sky to join us. Another friend found out so we invited him too. Sky and the other friend piloted a mecha tank in the convention parking lot. It was like Kuromukuro in that the tank transformed into a humanoid mech. Lyly followed me until they decided it wasn't their thing and joined the others.

The Sinbad event turned out to be Sinbad's Adventure Island. It was kinda like the Adventure Island at Disney World in that it was kinda a giant obstacle course and playground. Because it reminded people of the Disney attraction, a lot of parents dropped off their kids at the island. The kids were only allowed on top of the island. Most of what the Adventure Island had to offer was in the caves that referenced the Dungeons. There was an NPC of Sinbad at the entrance. I had a full fan freakout. The SiNPC laughed and explained the rules of the Island, as well as that he would be going through all of the areas in the caves in a set loop so that if anyone got lost they would be able to find their way through. He would be doing set events at different locations that would hint at a secret -like a puzzle for people to figure out so they could find a specific location on the island.

Instead of going through the obstacles and games which was the obvious intent & where more clues would be hidden, I used the hole shaped windows in the walls to chase keep up with SiNPC. (The windows were shaped like that to continue the cave theming of most of the underground section.) Since I played a lot of games growing up, I often have dreams that involve NPC type people. I've found that if I push NPCs out of situations where game logic works, I can get my subconscious to make them an actual person. And I wanted to flirt with a real Sinbad.

SiNPC went into an area that guests were not supposed to be in. When I looked into the room I saw that he turned into his 14 y/o self. Young Sinbad jumped down a hole in the middle of the room. I ran in, and looked down the hole to see he landed in water. I could see the edges of several floors between us. That was definitely 14 y/o Sinbad. What the fuck was going on? I've had dreams where a person appeared multiple times at once, each with a different age, but not them changing age. Not to mention, normally if my age changes, it's early in the dream, or triggered by something from the age I turned into. Something felt off but it wasn't enough for my to change my age and I've never been able to do it consciously -yet; I prepared myself to shut down a flirty teenager just in case. I'm in my 30's and would not flirt with someone more than 5 years different than me. Even so, there was no way I wasn't going to follow him -Sin was 14, so it could be Baal's Dungeon down there and I was going to see it before the dream ended.

I looked back at Lyly who was standing in the doorway, and yelled, "I'm gonna jump in!"

They answered, "I know. I'm not following you though." Then they went to go regroup with the others.

As I jumped down my anxiety rose. It wasn't from fear of getting hurt or like when I can tell a dream is going to become a nightmare. I just felt more hyper vigilant of my surroundings from my PTSD; it felt like the level it was when I was a teenager. I've had a bunch of dreams where I am my past ages and recognized that feeling. I did it! I wasn't sure if that was a good idea though.

I could tell I wasn't as young as Sinbad. I went through hugely traumatic events when I was 12 & 14 and I felt like I did when I had recovered a little from them, so I had to be at least 15 -there were a bunch of traumatic events after that too, but I could feel that the trauma from later events weren't in my brain yet. I checked my hair and glasses and got the confirmation I was looking for. When I was 6 I started growing my bangs out so I could still be pretty -I thought you could only be pretty if you didn't have bangs because none of the pretty people with dark hair on TV and in Movies had bangs. I realized how stupid that was by the time I was 11, but I didn't realize I could have bangs again until I was a teenager. I started cutting my bangs when I was 15. The bangs I had were cut like Edward Eric's (because I didn't have the confidence to get the hime cut like I do now), but my hair isn't pin straight so it laid differently on me. I was definitely either 15 or 16 if this was the hair cut I had.

Even though this meant I was in an acceptable age range to flirt with Sinbad again, it also meant I was back to having a stronger fight response to flirting and teasing. ((I still have it internally, but thanks to emotional control I don't turn into a tsundere outside of dreams.)) My clothes changed with my age to better match the setting which meant this wasn't an event anymore; and Sinbad definitely wouldn't be an NPC anymore either. That meant that his flirting wasn't going to be some scripted line from an AI... It was going to be personalized.

When I got out of the water, I noticed that this area matched the Dungeons even more than the higher floors, but it didn't seem to be any specific Dungeon. I doubted there would be monsters based on how the dream felt. There would probably still be riddles and puzzles like in the Dungeons in the series. That renewed my excitement and I ran off to find where Sinbad went.

There were a bunch of broken columns that drew my attention. Since they were the only thing of interest, I decided to follow the path they were on. As I was running past them someone stepped out from behind one of the pillars and I ran into their raised hand -stopping me. Sinbad pulled back his hand from my forehead. "You really jumped down after me." He sounded amused. Just as my brain caught up to what happened, Sinbad gave me a playful smile. "That was really dangerous, you know?"

Sure, it was a 3 story drop, but this place was designed for fun and it was a dream. I felt my face heating up. I was self conscious from him talking to me, and smiling at me, and just as insulted by his words that implied I was incapable. "If it's so dangerous why did you jump?!"

He laughed, and turned around to start walking more through the Dungeon, "This is going to be fun."

"You're not going to apologize for hitting my forehead?!" He just kept walking while I followed behind him and continued complaining. And then my alarm woke me up.

((Wasn't sure if I was going to post this today or wait a bit longer to spread things out more, but I feel like I can't work on the next thing while I'm still sitting on this. I've had it ready to post for 6 months after all, and then just kinda didn't do it))
