Recently diagnosed, I'd love to make friends and chat!!

Yes me neither. There is nothing new that draws me in like that golden moment in anime.

–I just remembered an NHK produced animation series that really stuck with me : "Planet Es" https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0816398/

oil painting has always been easier for me than other disciplines. I especially like the tactility of it. and the bounce of the canvas, the blending and the colors. I don't paint now but I still enjoy having done it and can rewind to experience again as I like.

I also did a great deal of abstract paintings.

I will PM you with a link. 

Thanks so much for replying. I do have a PC and can do Steam, but for some reason I prefer JRPGs on the Switch. Especially because it can pick up where you left off, or take away on holiday.

I've just bought it! I'm very excited! I got the download version because I am impatient! £16 with my handful of Nintendo Points left over.

Yes this is the 'deluxe' edition of the game! Super fun, adds some extra story beats, a new character and a new dungeon! Totally worth it, but if you have a computer, it may be cheaper on Steam. It's a great game, but make sure to look online if you want the 'good' ending!

chococo - I'd gone to sleep (I'm over 50and didn't see this). I have a Nintendo Switch. I've played Persona 5, and Shin Megami Tensei V. I've not played P4, but can see this on the Nintendo store

Is this the same? I know sometimes there are spin-offs, so it is confusing for me. I will buy this for myself if it is an update of the original game. But probably not if it's a spin-off.

Thank you!! >_< persona is a terrific game series, but 4 is above and beyond my favourite purely due to the story and characters! It's great that your wife did psychology too, it's an absolutely fascinating subject, with such a broad variety of topics to engage with!

It's amazing that you do oil painting! I'd love to try it some day, but I'm not very good at realism. Practice makes perfect I suppose!! What subject matter do you paint?

The history of autism research is fascinating but also very harrowing, as you mentioned the 3rd Reich did some awful things. Thankfully, things have improved A LOT since then, and I'm amazed at the new research that has been coming out!!

I love steins gate! I need to rewatch it! And attack on titan is great too, definitely one of my favourites. To be honest, I havent been too keen on a lot of recent anime. Just not my cup of tea! But dungeon meshi has been a refreshing change of pace. It's hilarious but it also has a lot of heart!

Welcome Chococo. Great name and avatar picture. I'm sure that you will find lots of similar people to you hear. Even a very old git like me still plays Persona! My wife did psychology, so I know that it's a great and interesting subject.

I love some of your interests and your enthusiasm! thanks and welcome!

I have a lifetime interest in the visual arts. I paint in oils.

these days, house-less, I write stories, instead.

I also love to research things and investigate various things as they come up. I believe it is the investigating that I enjoy.

Autism research is a good one for me. I keep reading and more these days as the viewpoints around it are shifting and morphing so swiftly.  I'm also very interested in the early history (and it is all about "his") especially the crossover effects of Freud's theories and how they reflect the demand for social control and structure to be bolstered. The war's influence annd the influence and misuse of psychiatry within the 3rd Reich.

These days I enjoy studying on the early branching off into very interesting areas of practice subsequent to the work of Wilhelm Reich and Jung and all the others that followed.

I had a first row seat for the influence the '60s had on the demise of rigid social norms and the role it payed in psychiatry.

My fav. anime are. Stein's Gate, Cowboy Bee Bop, the Giburi study works, Attack on Titan, Mushishi, and some others. I haven't watched much in the last few years so it's nice to get some new titles from you. I havent bee watching much hese days.

omg that’s so cool!

I love minecraft and splatoon 3!!!! I used to play overwatch but quit after overwatch 2. I miss the old version! I also love attack on titan, Mikasa was my first ever cosplay at 13, it was dreadful  but I had fun! MP100 is probably my number 1 anime of all time!!!

PS. sorry for slow reply, my notifications are weird???????

I like to play on over watch, mine craft, among us, splatoon 3 and mario kart and I like fairy tail, my hero academia, sword art online, attack on titan, jujutsu kaisen, bungou stray dogs and mob psycho 100

>_< yaaaay! What games/ anime do you like?? ^_^
