Apotheosis: Notes of an Eidolon
About me ~ I lift heavy, think deeper, and watch characters burn beautifully.
Philosohpy, Trauma, and Ambition. I'm drawn to the ones who fall from grace and rise as something untouchable. (intj-type)
Current Hobby ~ Reading Sci-Fi & Futurism Books, I read science fiction the way some people chase religion, looking for meaning in the void. Authors like Cixin Liu, Peter Watts, Alastair Reynolds, Arthur C. Clarke, William Gibson and Adrian Tchaikovsky keep my brain orbiting questions about consciousness, AI, evolution, and what it even means to be human.
I’m drawn to stories where the universe doesn’t care, but the characters fight to matter anyway~ Always open to new book recommendations or even manga, especially anything that blends philosophy, technology, and cosmic horror. Drop me your favorite sci-fi or simulation-theory reads ~ I’ll probably add them to my ever growing list ;)
“One glance at a book and you hear the voice of another person, perhaps someone dead for 1,000 years. To read is to voyage through time.” ― Carl Sagan

I dont really look at genres when watching either, but we like similiar genres (Other than horror). Also by that you should be watching anime full time now! I have to be honest i dont watch anime full time at all, i am on MAL, play roblox with friends, and watch yt a lot more than watching animes these days, but if i am watching anime, i really lock in and binge it in a few days lol. But glad to hear ur plans are getting cleared to watch more anime.
First id recommend takopii, i have a review of it if ur curios, you could tell me what you think of the review and if it convinces you. Its about time travel, trauma and has suicide in it its really dark and only 6 episodes. After that i have some lighter recommendations, a place further than the universe, a very short anime about travelling to antartica, a must watch 9/10 anime which really makes you wanna travel. Well idk if you like romance 2 very entertaining romances are toradora and your lie in april. then lastly if you have time to kill and maybe torture yourself for 1,5 seasons, well not really but basically slice of life for 1,5 seasons and then one of the most masterpiece things ive seen then clannad and clannad after story is amazing. It takes 36 or so episodes to build up, but since you loved steins gate, you might be able to handle it. I genuinely loved it.
Ill leave it at those recommendations for now, give them a watch and tell me your thoughts after! If you want more recommendations, then tell me im down to give more recommendations!
Ive added hellsing ultimate to my ptw. Sounds perfect for me lol. And i get you time travel is just really fascinating, i really wanna do it irl so instead i look at anime to fill the gap for me lol. thats how my elite taste game to life.
Ive also checked your list i love soo many of those animes u watch we really do have similiar tastes. So you could say you have elite taste too! Lol elite taste buddies.
Now, I wasn’t expecting that at all… but yeah, Orochimaru is a pretty mysterious character, but his personality can also be attractive in some cases, and all the points you mentioned are proof of that, so I get you.
I assume ur back on your laptop. Also they were great recommendations, ive added phantom requiem to my ptw since u insist its a must watch. Ill let you know what i think of psycho pass and phantom requiem after i watch it. You convinced me with saying "i am more into light hearted anime", im not and i want to prove you otherwise loll. My top genres are survival, gore and military as i said again, it would be a crime not to watch it lolll.
Also thats a fair way to see if you wanna watch an anime. Could i give you some recommendations? Well ive watched both of those, and they were 9/10 and 10/10, so your really amazing at giving recommendations! Wdym by elite taste btw? Also yea i would love to watch some more time travel anime!
And yeah, you should definitely watch Evangelion. It’s one of those masterpieces I was talking about, a truly unique anime. But just so you know, the real ending is in the movie The End of Evangelion. The anime’s ending… isn’t really the actual conclusion of the story, but anyway.
Ah I see, maybe I’ll do the same when I get some free time.
Oh, I like your top 3, and now that you mention it, I really like Yohann too. He’s definitely in my top 5 favorite antagonists, and he’s not number 5 lol.
Hmm okay, let me think.
My favorite character is definitely Itachi. It’s a classic choice, sure, but I genuinely mean it. He’s both the best-written and the most mysterious character, and on top of that he’s the biggest flexer in the whole series. Honestly, he’s just incredible.
Second place would be Kakashi. I didn’t really care about him before, but when I think about it now, he’s actually extremely well written too. He’s probably the character who suffered the most emotionally in Naruto, yet he always stayed calm and composed on the outside. It’s kinda inspiring, cuz I’m pretty similar to that too. So yeah, it’s really his journey that made me like him.
Third place… yeah that’s where it gets hard lol. I’m thinking Minato, Sasuke, or Madara, I honestly can’t pick one, sorry. Naruto’s cast is full of amazing characters, it’s almost criminal.
Thank you so much!!
Oh, that’s really sweet of you. Honestly, this field is exhausting, but hey, like they say, after the effort comes the reward.
Oh, those are all anime from the 90s, looks like you got fully matrixed by that era xD.
Okay, so my top 3 anime are definitely:
AOT, Naruto, Neon Genesis Evangelion. They’re the ones that touched me the most or that I loved the most (honorable mention to JJK even if I didn’t like the end of the manga, and to HxH 2011 which is, in my opinion, the peak of shonen).
Oh… I’ve never really thought about making a top 3 characters… there are just so many I love that I can’t choose xD, or well, it would be really hard.
Maybe if you ask for my top 3 per anime, then I’d be able to answer.
And by the way, do you have a top 3 characters?
