The country’s economic boom in the ‘80s sparked increases in tourism to Australia, thus driving koala fascination further than ever before.
In the wake of COVID-19’s initial wave, though, golf provided a space for social occasions during a time of necessary isolation.
For the younger folks or the uninformed who may be reading this, Mark Merlino was an extremely important part of why anime was able to become as popular as it was in the US today. He helped form the C/FO, one of the first anime clubs in America, alongside Fred Patten back in the day. [He hosted some of the earliest screenings of anime at conventions as well]](https://dogpatch.press/2020/04/28/history-cartoon-fantasy-organization/).
He seems to be in stable condition currently according to this post but it's still so scary to see a man so important to our fandom have such a scary medical issue.
There is currently an address listed where get well cards can be sent. It seems the least we could do in the anime fandom is to make sure this man's mailbox is overflowing with kind words.
I'll be sending a card, how about you?
Lots of other excellent shows on your list, just got around to watching The Apothecary Diaries myself and it would have been a serious contender for a top 10 spot had I just had time to get to it in particular.
You might see friends today suggesting you support Hard Drive on Patreon today. You know, the funny video games version of The Onion? As a journalist, I will firmly tell you DO NOT GIVE THEM A DIME.…
I have quite a few things on my list that I'll be at least watching one episode of and I'll pop em all in a big list below! I know that list looks enormous and intimidating, but it's very likely this list will be halved by the end of the season. I'm not one to make myself suffer through shows just to finish them. If they don't win me over after episode one, they can join my massive list of dropped shows forever.

I'm so sad that Undead Unluck got stuck in Hulu jail, it's such a good show but so few people I know have even seen it or seem to know it exists...
I watched a solid bit into the show and hit some points that just didn't hit with me at the time. I've been told it gets past that and becomes even better, but I just haven't felt the motivation to return to watching it. I felt like I got the general vibe from the series enough as is from what I saw.
That being said, some folks say it may be the best anime of the year and I know people seriously adore it, so I'd probably say to anyone reading this comment that they might want to check it out too!
You see, this is a cool thing where someone starts a discussion with their thoughts on anime and hopefully other folks interested share their thoughts too! It's this thing we do on social media, not sure why you think it's a joke?
Unless you just think my taste in anime is trash, then all the power to you! But in that case, complain and share your own top 10 and add to the discussion. Maybe someone with similar tastes will enjoy what they see, ya know?
Thank you so much! I'm really glad you got something from it :D
Feels so weird seeing this list and not one show I'm really doing this season is on it. I don't try to be a hipster or anything, just dang...
To be fair, Apothecary Diaries in on my list to watch once I can at least. But dang, guess my season was really outside the norm this time around.
Can't wait till this one hits stateside! After how good the Kaguya-sama movie was in theaters, I'm sure this will be a treat.
