it started with one show. then another. before i knew it, weekends disappeared into 12-episode binges, seasonal releases, and a watchlist that somehow kept getting longer instead of shorter. i don't remember every rating i gave or every little detail, but i remember the feeling most of them left behind. some became lifelong favorites. some were just fun for a weekend. a few completely caught me off guard. looking through this list now feels less like scrolling through anime and more like revisiting different moments of my life.
