Okay I don't know what to think of that.

But I assure you that I am really the gender I have listed. As far as you know.
 
On that note...

...How would you denote one's sex? Because female and male are both gender names, yeah? Doesn't really make sense when you think about it, considering most other animals don't have genders and yet we call them "male" or "female". It's an inherently sex-related term that in no way ties in with gender.

And in terms of medical documents, one's sex is "male" or "female" (because that's what they denote), but it seems like simply through decades upon decades of sex and gender being used interchangeably it just kind of stuck.

The sky is not blue
The grass is not green

Those are merely the labels we attach to that particular hue of the visible color spectrum we perceive

It's just a label to help us understand it better

Another reason why people fight over sexuality and gender that confuses me


It's also part of the reason I don't call myself human, since I have nothing in common with such narrow-minded creatures

Sex is biological, Gender is sociological.

Danmachi's a charming little show. Been a while since I watched it but the first 4 or 5 episodes that I did watch were pretty fun.

I mentioned before...I think...how I shouldn't like some of the characters, such as Bell, but I do because damn if they aren't charming.

Older ones are great- I'm a big fan of ones from the 90s and 80s. That was the age of super catchy theme songs and just plain different, more angular designs.

I've never really understood how people said they can't do the older stuff; it's not like it doesn't hold up. It's only really difficult to get to when you go back to stuff from the 70s and prior. 80s going forward's still pretty modern, or at least easy to get into.

Yeah, but a lot of anime fans are set in their ways about dubs anyway, so it won't really matter. And animation limitations are still a thing. I mean, they're older but it's not uncommon to see stuff that surpasses what we have today ("Itano Circus" is a renowned example of stuff that just stands the test of time). It's really just a matter of budget and direction.

Though, going with voice acting, despite it being a bigger field today, I feel as if back in the day we got a much larger variety of voices. Nowadays, regardless of language, voices fall into tropes, just as characters do. It's a shame, really.
