Jeffrey Marsh is an abusive creep and a groomer. I'd think twice before taking personal philosophies from them.
I miss noralities, I wish they would come back.
I love to pretend that Rika doesn’t exist.
Please do a video on Glitter Force
It is so time to rewatch Dragon Maid.
classic (i dont know what this is)
I love urobuther and i do think that 21 century is prone to shush tragedy stories. But gay people should have wider array of content, definitely. I'm asexual, i don't need it personally, but i have most i need, while a lot of people don't. Have a good day, enough food respect and just Goodluck
I just started the video, but I just wanted to say that I started watching the anime (Princes Tutu) because of your recomendaiton on the Nanami video and OMG, I really loved the anime!! Thank you so much! <3
When you said "depression cant be cured but has to be worked on" i decided not to be depressed anymore because i absolutely cant be bothered working on shit anymore.
18:37 RIP Jessie
Cottagecore. I didn't even know it was a thing. This video being 3 years old, cottagecore is going stronger than ever now.
What the actual @#%& is wrong with this world This isn't even a bruh moment anymore, what the actual living @#%&
The never ending spiral
Mai-Hime can't be compared to these magical girls anime tho.
But for me, Cardcaptor sakura is the best anime for this genre!
this was my first anime in the 3rd grade. I found it on Netflix and was enhanced by the beautiful art. I remember having to hide it from my overly Christian parents. I LOVE this anime. adore it fully
I love Jessie and James so much. They both make my heart so happy. Idk exactly why, but I love them so much.
There have been so many times where I hear people talk about «popular seasonal anime of the month» and I sit down and watch it and it’s like a completely different show than what was described by anitubers. Not in the literal plot content obviously but in the tone and points that it was supposedly really good at. I’ve learned to just filter out from most of these channels recommendations based on a main character’s supposed relatability or tone or basically anything refered to as “a romp” for some reason
I kinda wish that I can make a story based off these magical girls
Kiki’s Delivery Service
I hope you're doing well. 💜
Cardcaptor Sakura is the best and beautiful anime series ever there’s nothing wrong with it ✨✨✨✨✌️✌️✌️✌️👍👍👍👍
My favorite of Sakura’s outfits that Ive seen has to be the white dress that she wears in the anime’s 3rd opening.
Everything is....going to be okay is such a sad ending
I first watched utena when I was about 9/10, and it was a huge part of my life and changing my views of things, it hwvaily influenced me as a person and writer As a young kid who thought they were a lesbian [was trans] and had been groomed Utena as a character and show was easy for me to latch onto, it has it's many issues but it was very life changing even if I probably shouldn't have been watching it I really love this video! Its very concise and explains the show well
did not know that about Rurouni Kenshin's author. Now I kinda feel gross for enjoying the manga :/
I really need to talk about this show and madoka magica together. Like chairs? Weird sureal backgrounds? Bleeding of magic and reality. The way it handles hope and cycles of dispair. Just the way Homura acts is so Anthys to me
lowkey my main issue with this movie is how cute her first dress at the start was I get that black is traditional but at least make the black cute!

There was an Utena 20th anniversary manga released some time ago and while a manga is apparently canon to the anime. I do not recall if Nanami is mentioned but it does show the other student coubcil membets fates and i clearly rememver Juri and Shiori's and while they are together Shioro is a toxic and manipulative user of Juri abd after being haunted by Ruka's ghost and getting hit with visuals from the movie breaks up with Shiori and fires ger as her manager, while this video was about Nanami that last bit at the end about the ending being uolifting with their counteroarts sadly did not come true, apparently the only good ending for Juri came from Ruka and Utena's ghosts inspiring her to cut Shiori out of her life.
Banger video
Ok, now that I've finished watching your vid I just want to say that I loved it, and that I also love Anthy xD she's my anime crush/waifu and has been for a long time. I could never understand why people hated her xD or thought of her as mean when the character was clearly suffering from the very beginning. But then again, my personality is similar to Utena's xD soo
I'm on minute 32 and probably 4 years too late to point this out but, at the end of the anime it IS implied that Utena became the prince. When? The moments that the Swords attack her instead of attacking Akio! Remember that Anthy's role was to distract the swords of hate that would've normally attacked the prince. When Anthy was gone, the swords then went after the prince: Utena. I watched this anime when it aired back in the 90s and it is my favorite, back then we as fans would say that the power to revolutionize the world was Love. That's why effing Akio could never get it XD
now I have to see like 200 new animes
Please tell me where I can watch the anime
21:55 I'm all in for this
In Sweden there is a saying "det var bättre förr" or "it was better before" 😆

This rezero take was so ass lmao
12:17 ⚠️Manga spoilers⚠️ Because the manga is on a cliffhanger rn we don’t know what will happen and all I know and other TBHK fans that read the manga know that I’m one of the chapters Hanako said “Yashiro is going to die at 16” and in the manga and show she is 15 and when Yashiro asked Hanako that he said “you have less then a year to live” and Hanako try to disappear so Yashiro’s lifeline is longer and it was really sad it made me cry a LOT but chapter 86 is a we’re Yashiro and Hanako kiss FR this time soo I was happy they did!! So yeah- I hope she actually doesn’t die 🥲🫶🏼
Sadness when you realise it has been two years already
I hope you're okay. I genuinely miss your videos :(
Came to see ehat triggered the weebs like Just A Robot. I subscribed. Hope you come back one day, girl!
