Was out today and I saw a couple dressed as Mario and Princess Peach.
But the girlfriend was Mario and the boyfriend was Peach. Had the crown and the dress and everything.
I now have a new couple goal
It's really cool when people feel comfortable doing that kinda thing... there should totally be more than one Halloween a year, dammit!
That said, as nice as the idea of a relationship might sound on paper, I don't really feel it'd be right for me to pursue one for a small handful of reasons. I've been in a couple of relationships in the past, but they didn't really work out in the long run - no hard feelings, they were lovely while they lasted. That said, if I were to pursue one nowadays, I'd probably say my main goal would be that both of us could feel a sense of comfort in something so simple as being in the same room together, even if we don't have to necessarily talk or do anything in particular. Kind of like the concept of parallel play in cats, I suppose? That might be my low social battery talking... heh.
how is it that an anime about 2 teens dealing with aliens and spirits while also balancing romance and one of them losing their…man parts…somehow one of the most normal anime premieres of 2024?
Honestly, one thing I've always appreciated about "manga" and "anime" in general is how - at a glance - a lot of the stuff getting published just seems off-the-wall bat**** in concept, but people just roll with it. I guess that might come from my own interest in much weirder media overall, though...
I'm going to have to add this to my ever-growing list of things to read at some point. Which... sounds odd, given your description. Oh well.
I think y'all need a really strong therapist.
Imagine if there was a therapist who could like, enter people's minds, and then they had to do wrestling matches with physical manifestations of people's troubles within the mindscape using various fighting techniques loosely inspired by actual theraputic techniques? That'd be cool as hell. I'd love that.
But... yeah, I guess you're not wrong.
