since it's been a few months now and the last response wasn't exactly a question, i thought i might as well just send a new one would you rather have someone spread bad lies about you or have someone spread the truth about you (but it's something you don't want getting out)?

I definitely prefer drawing traditionally. It's what I'm used to and I think I just generally enjoy it more. I also find digital art hard (mainly due to a lack of experience), so if I were to practice more, I'd probably get the hang of it and have more fun! But for now, I'll stick to pen amd paper

i still really want that cheesecake ☹

The first anime that comes to my mind is Monster! I think it's such an interesting story with very interesting ideas. Every episode is delicately woven into the overall story in ways you wouldn't expect. The characters are all very well written and you grow invested in the lives and stories of everyone, even the background characters. Not to mention the compelling dynamics between different characters (such as Johan/Tenma, Johan/Nina, Tenma/Lunge etc). I think Monster kind of feels like a puzzle, in a way. Every different episode/scene is a puzzle piece and they're all placed together until the final picture is clear. Also, the opening is cool

Is there something that's ever put you off watching/continuing a certain anime? What was it?

I've personally seen very few horror anime, but I really enjoyed The Summer Hikaru Died! I definitely need to check out more, though. (Also, I just noticed the face on Yoshiki's shirt. It looks a little goofy, haha)

I'm Australian!!

My school has the xxxHolic series, so I've been reading that! I borrowed first omnibus earlier this week, then I borrowed the second and third omnibus (so I read volumes 4-9 yesterday). I've also been reading Death Note. I'm up to volume five now :]

Mondo Owada and Yasuhiro Hagakure from Danganronpa definitely come to mind first I'd say Jessie and Yugi have some pretty funny hair too

I was wondering what everybody's opinions on anime remakes/reboots are? What are some examples and do you think they're better or worse than the original? Are there any series you'd like to see a remake or reboot of?

Yes, that's another reason I love Tenma! MAJOUR spoiler for the ending below because i'm unsure if you've finished the series yet or how close you are. I watched the series on Netflix too, however I chose to watch it in Japanese because the English dub wasn't there. I'm happy I went with it, though. I've heard that the English dub is really good (I've seen a few clips and they all sounded great), however I prefer Johan's voice in Japanese. His voice is a lot softer in the original sub and I personally think it's more fitting to his character. It makes him seem more approachable yet it's also very eerie at times and I think that's rather fitting for his character. I haven't heard Johan's voice in French before, so I might check that out later!

What are your favourite/least favourite personality traits to see in a character in anime?

I FINALLY finished watching Monster two days ago! It took me two years, but I'm glad I finally got around to it. I really enjoyed it. I've seen lots of people say that the ending was anticlimactic and sucked, but I personally enjoyed it for the most part. All of the characters in the show are fantastic, too. Even side characters such as Grimmer and Martin were very fleshed out and I'd say their stories were just as engaging as the stories of characters like Nina and Tenma. I also think that Tenma is somehow a underrated character from what I've seen? I think he's overlooked because of Johan's popularity, as well as the fact that he's a main character. I thought he was a very well-written character that I thoroughly enjoyed. He was definitely my favourite (maybe I'm just biased for that reason, haha). I'm trying to avoid saying any spoilers, so I'll be vague, but I think it was interesting when Tenma would disappear for multiple episodes. As much as I wanted to see him, I think these disappearances made Tenma more unpredictable when he does appear, like we can't tell what he's thinking so much. Same thing with Johan. I think this was a very cool choice that made their interactions all the more interesting. So overall, I think that Monster does have some pacing issues and can be a bit boring at times, but it's worth it in the end. It's a very compelling story with fantastic characters that I would definitely watch again :] I also caught up on the last few episodes of The Summer Hikaru Died today. I'm really enjoying it!

i'd have to go with anime figurines. although it would be much harder on my wallet, at least there's more options and variation. would you rather learn how to play an instrument or learn how to paint?
