I have limited time with my existing responsibilities, but with what little time I do have, I love investing it into a good movie or TV show. I don't mean whatever "binge-worthy" show is on the top 10 of Netflix. I like character development, good pacing, non-standard plots, etc. It's pretty much the opposite of what has come out in the West over the last five years. So, I started investing more into anime, and I have had zero regrets. Sure, there's plenty of low-quality near-pornographic trash, but I've found far more diamonds in the rough than I was initially expecting. Let me give a recent example: Kotaro Lives Alone. It's a story about a four-year-old who lives alone due to some extenuating circumstances I won't cover for the sake of spoilers. It's funny, heart-warming, cry-inducing, and overall, extremely entertaining for an otherwise outrageous plot. I've found dozens of gems like this in the past five years, and a lot of them are "recent" enough to give me hope that the Japanese haven't forgotten the art of making quality media.
