    There have been lots.

    But my most recent was Moshoku Tensei and its current “future timeline (of the MC)” stuff. (I hope it’s just a “vision”).

    I’m a middle aged dude and watching what happens to his 2 wives and then his lost love, Eris. I’m not ashamed to admit that I cried (and am now, typing this) and lost actual sleep over it. You’re (probably) laughing, and I’m amazed at how much I didn’t know I cared about the characters.

    Storytelling, when done well, is powerful. Seriously. 🤯

      After one of my several rewatches of A Place Further Than The Universe, I earnestly prayed that I can write stories like it.
