The first anime I watched was Dragon Ball Z no matter how ridiculous it was I can say from the bottom of my heart that it will always be a classic.
That is what I will start this off with.
About a year ago, due to some strange youtube recommendations, I stumbled upon the infamous show The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. Upon that moment I started the dark journey into the anime world and later the manga world. But throughout my journey I noticed one thing, Everything was shrouded in mystery. I had no guide, no true knowledge of the epic and awesome, nor and complete idea of what a good anime was like besides the lists and sites which gave very little direction, I was completely lost.
So if anybody (and I mean anybody) is reading this then I as a fellow lover of Japanese visual culture, shall tell you this I will make it my duty, no my privilege to give off the knowledge that I have acquired because unlike my fellow otaku I am but a child in this world and with that I hope to show you what I have learned.
With this small introduction and emotional promises let us start, reader from space, into the world of anime and manga. I hope that you find what you are looking for.
