Lmao as much as I admire your detective work, I doubt he'd lie about his MAL account. He's actually been posting it for a while now, and Drone's really not the kind of guy to lie about his MAL.

I think he maybe watched some episodes of Hitman Reborn and added that back when he was still a casual to boost his stats or something, and completely forgot about it.

i didn't mean to do detective work, i actually noticed that by accident when i sorted his completed by the stuff that had the most episodes, and i remembered that he just posted about not watching hitman reborn. then i tried to confirm... and it made me really confused...

why would you comprehensively add so much shit but not the first thing i look up, Penguindrum? wtf...

EDIT:

Also, I'm not watching Nisekoi because 1) Shaft needs to stop and 2) nothing happens in Nisekoi ever, I read the manga, don't get your hopes up for any actual plot resolution at any point

"oh yeah i'm not watching Nisekoi, shitsux"
*rates two entire seasons of it, scores it decently*

bruh, i almost thought you watched almost as much shit as my boy sheldon (Veronin) who has been a NEET doing bumfucking nothing but watching anime since 2010, but IDK man shit isn't making sense

Has anyone watched the original anime series of Rurouni Kenshin

I read Ruroni Kenshin, but it definitely wasn't recently lol

Image

"never mind the fact that i actually watched all ninety fucking four episodes of the original 90s series lolz"

(benefit of the doubt: he watched all that shit in the past few months, after posting these posts..??? he just never felt like mentioning his huge undertaking of watching a ~100 episode 90s series to completion in a short time span, cuz no big deal?? god fucking knows why anyone would ever decide to do that when a highly critically acclaimed 4-episode OVA exists and he hasn't watched that???? LIKE CMON YOU HAD THE DEDICATION AND THOROUGHNESS TO WATCH 100 FUCKING EPISODES OF THAT SHIT BUT U DON'T WATCH TRUST AND BETRAYAL, THE SHIT PEOPLE ACTUALLY WATCH AND IS THE 17TH HIGHEST RATED THING ON MAL?)

note: im not trying to be a dick, i'm just entertained.

Also, wow o wow, logh has 110 episodes huh, this is gonna take a while

"oh yeah, all these other multi-hundred episode series of boring shit? ez pz, i watch that shit to completion for breakfast"
"oh fuck the ~100 episode series that people still actually watch?? 2LONG4ME" (TL Note: he has not rated LoGH or even added it to "Plan to Watch")

1) At the time I wasn't watching Nisekoi, I watched it afterwards because I started it and had to finish

2) I'd already read all of Ruroni Kenshin, so after I watched it it wasn't really a new experience and I felt no need to bring it up

3)I watched all of those series as a kid, I've settled into 24-12 episode series as my norm

Lol, Hitman Reborn I really don't know why that's in there, I must have added it by mistake, probably meant to put that in plan to watch

BroTaku is the name I use for my DA, Steam, alternate Youtube and Wysp accounts as well so like...

Also Mawari Penguindrum I probably forgot to add after watching it because I genuinely hated it and probably decided to go do something else to take my mind off of it immediately

u assigned it a score though and... nvm, i don't actually care

i cannot understand how you could decide to watch such a massively long series of 94 episodes, rate it very highly, and not even make a post about it when you have hundreds of posts ITT... but... whatever man. that's like, longer than Breaking Bad and that shit took me forever to watch. i fucking lived and breathed that show just because i was watching it so much. not a single post doe. ok.

might as well watch that OVA though, i hear it's really good, and most people just watch that instead of the fucklong series.

your attention span is very admirable and i'd be curious to see what kind of fucklong books you are able to get through with such ease

I mean, it wasn't new, I didn't bring it up because before watching it, I pretty much knew what I was in for and when it was done I didn't feel like it was necessary to discuss it. I don't remember the reason why I decided to watch the original series instead of the ova tbh

I'll check it out at some point I suppose

how long did it take you to watch and why did you even watch it if you've read it? i don't think i'd be able to complete it if i tried honestly, especially if i knew all the fucking spoilers... i mean jesus h christ that sounds like a boring way to spend countless hours

oh hey i could read classic works of literature with my godly attention span but instead i'll watch 94 episodes of something i've already read and know all the spoilers of, which was made in the 90s and doesn't even have good animation

I think I was home sick from school for like three days and had nothing better to do, so I marathoned the whole thing. It was one of those times when like, I couldn't find anything I hadn't seen that was worth watching (probably just because I wasnt looking hard enough) so I just decided to go for it

I'm subscribed to a few film throry/history/101 type stuff related channels on youtube as well, even though I don't make films or plan to, much less really watch them anymore. I don't really read as many books as I ought to honestly, but I used to read all the time before I started watching anime lmfao

The gap between Drone and me is like more than the amount of my posts.

and why am I even the fourth one to have that many posts in this thread I'm like the resident casual of this thread
