Yo! I'm Oddthicket,
but you can also call me Phryn~I've been cosplaying since around 2011,
and I'm a proud cosplay maker.I dabble in digital art for fun~As of a few years ago,
I began to dabble in cosplay photography,
specializing in Hall Photography.I also manage the Dead Authors Club,
a small collective of Bungo Stray Dogs fans and cosplayers in the Southern California region.
We hold cosplay gatherings and meet-ups in Little Tokyo,
usually on an Author's birthday.Make the world a kinder place.-Phryn

Be on the side that saves people. If both sides are the same, then choose to become a good person. Save the weak, protect the orphaned. You might not see a great difference between right and wrong, but... saving others is something just a bit wonderful." - Odasaku

• MyAnimeList
• AniList

Ratings follow a general rubric starting at a 5-6 and gaining or losing .5 pts depending on quality of animation and elements such as/not limited to:storytelling | world building | character building | rewatch value | effective utilization, subversion, or refinement of tropes etcThus, they follow a Bell Curve in general.Anilist is the most updated.

Do not use my ratings as blind endorsement for a particular IP.
(Even some of my darlings do not get a 10/10 and I'm not afraid to dock points and prefer to keep as "objective" as possible)I'm of the philosophy that anime recommendations should be tailored to people's interests and personality. There are many good entry points depending on genre as well.
