I like shonen and sci-fi. I don't like slice of life and romance, specially if there is ecchi involved.
Anime/manga is more of an artistic movement than a genre, so it's very hard to define what makes something an anime/manga.
I'm too lazy to do something like this, but I respect those who are able to do it.

1. How were you first introduced to anime/manga?

Social Media, as long as I remember.

2. What's your favorite genre? Genre you most avoid?

My favorite genre is Slice of Life and mostly I avoid Harem animes, I am just not into that.

3. What makes an anime/manga?

Art && Plot.

4. How unrealistic/cliched do you like your anime/manga?

Anything goes for me, in my opinion.

1. I've been watching anime for as long as I can remember. My older brother used to watch it when he was a kid, and he got me into it as well.  

2. I typically enjoy shonen anime or anything with fantasy, paranormal elements, and action. I also appreciate darker themes that delve into philosophical, ethical, or religious questions—like *Attack on Titan*, *Psycho-Pass*, or *Death Note*. On the other hand, I'm not a fan of romance or sports anime. There are only a few exceptions that I've watched and actually enjoyed.  

3. What I love about anime and manga is a combination of factors. For manga, I highly value the art style, the plot, and the characters. When it comes to anime, I enjoy great music, strong voice acting, and smooth animation.  

4. My preferences vary over time. Lately, I've been watching a lot of cliché isekai anime. These so-called "trashy" isekai series are like my comfort shows—they're fun to watch without expecting realistic characters or groundbreaking plots. However, a truly great anime should have an original story and well-written characters to make it a 10/10 experience.  

5. In the end, as long as it's good, I don't mind what genre it belongs to.  

6. I have no prejudices—as long as it's good, I don’t care about the genre.  

7./8. I usually watch the anime first, and if I like it, I’ll read the manga or the novel afterward.  

9. I’m definitely a big crybaby. I empathize with the characters very quickly.  

10. I’m a binge-watcher. If I start an anime I like, I’ll keep watching until I finish the whole series, even if it means staying up until the next morning.  

11. I’ve been watching anime for as long as I can remember. It’s a big part of my life, though my favorite anime and genres might change over time.  

12. Anime is something I always mention when someone asks about my interests—it’s one of the first things I bring up.  

13. I can’t imagine not knowing what manga or anime is.  

14. I can draw pretty well, but I personally prefer drawing more realistic scenes rather than manga-style art.  

15. No, I’m broke.  

16. Sometimes, if I have the chance.  

17. Yes, always—but only with my friends, because they’re the only ones who really understand.
