  1. I've been reading "Leveling up, by only eating" with the mentality of watching a random korean solo-leveling be like manhwa, but surprisingly it was a fun read with quite a  variety of points that make it unique. Fun read as I said, don't read if you're hungry now!

    My version of that is to always try to be myself.  That much I know I can do.  :)  It is a fool's notion to try to be someone else.  Let's face it, most media or other "pop" personalities are fake anyway so there's little point in emulating them, and there's only about a 1:7,800,000,000 chance that I am the best human at anything.  So I just try to be me.  Of course from there I try to do better but a much more realistic and practical goal is simply for this week's me to be better than last week's me.  After doing that sort of thing for a few years I've discovered that I'm actually pretty good at a lot of things.  Some of these things I use to make money.  Some of them I use to help people.  Some of them I just enjoy being able to do.  Trying to be something you're not is just asking for trouble.  Worst case you can wind up with issues caused by repeated failures to attain the unattainable.  However, I've found that trying to be the best me that I can be can not only be quite satisfying, it also has side benefits.

    As for Epictitus.. I can't say that I agree with everything in the Enchiridion.  It isn't a bad start.  (My favorite quote: “Know, first, who you are, and then adorn yourself accordingly.”)  I do think that quite a lot of happiness comes from within, and keeping a level head is never a bad idea.  But Stoicism is not itself happiness.  Modifying yourself to accommodate others isn't always the best path, or even the easiest.  For sure there's wisdom in knowing what can be changed and what must simply be learned to live with, but give in too much and people will walk all over you.  Everyone needs to push back at least a little.  The trick is in picking your battles.. knowing when to push back and when to accept reality.

    For myself my philosophy can be roughly summarized thus:

    Indeed, Stoicism is not happiness, it was just my start for a long journey that will hopefully last for the rest of my life ☺️ (gaining more knowledge about myself and the rest of the world) . But what I wanted to share above was the importance of having a start for building up your own world, one can easily be lost in the mist of life. 

    I am very happy to see you sharing your own philosophy, it quickly shows your experience of solving problems, which I do respect in people.

  4. Quite a nice manhwa indeed, one of the first I've read that made me read the LN.

    The art looks good and clean but what makes one drool is that beauty of a combination between 2 very opposed play styles that the MC has. 9/10.

  5. I think the decline in activity is due to new anime fans who search a place to share their thoughts are often recommended to go either discord or reddit by major "influencers" from other media like youtube and twitch. Which means publicity wins. I particularly don't have the knowledge to resolve this problem, so I'm sorry for not being helpful. The reason I came here was running away from the toxicity often found in places like discord and reddit (not every place is bad, but the bigger ones very often are).

  6. I thought it would be interesting to hear out people's opinion on what characters seems for them the most lovely ones and why! 

    Speaking for myself I find Roxy Migurdia as the reincarnation of an angel in paint and paper, I love her cheerful personality and her design! 

    What about yours?

    If character development is your thing, I highly recommend Fruits Basket (the 2019 adaption).
