Submit Nominations Here

I hope everybody is having a great week! I just wanted to put out a reminder that the nomination window for the year-end awards is closing soon (roughly end of Sunday USTZ).

I wrote a lot about the awards already here in case you are wondering what the hell they are. Feel free to ask any additional questions on this post as well. There are sister awards that are also open for nominations:

Finally, just want to thank @NineSwords@ani.social for generating the image I used for this post (as well as just thanking them in general).

Nothing wrong with that! It's like the anime version of being a patient gamer. You're just letting everyone else figure out what is good or bad.

I think so. Though it's a little different from being a patient gamer. I'm not being patient here, it's just the backlog is huge. :)

Maybe I should reshape my backlog, by watching the first episode of series. If it clicks with me, I watch the rest. If not I'll just drop it for good.

The first isn't always a good indicator. Watching the first 2 would be better. Also do you watch your backlog chronically?

[–] muhyb@programming.dev 3 points 1 week ago

Well, that depends on the anime but usually the first episode gives me the impression, since I mostly watch slice of life these days.

I wouldn't say chronically but I watch 1-2 episodes most of the days.
