Entirely depends on what you're looking for in an anime and manga. It's full of hornybait and fanservice, but also does manage to tell a romantic high school story about how you shouldn't judge a book by it's cover and how you gotta keep striving to be your best self while also staying true to your feelings.

It's genuinely wholesome, but also targeted more towards guys. If you're put off by that description, avoid it. If it sounds like your cup of tea, go for it.

Honestly, pretty decent adaptation so far.
I like the VA for Sung Jinwoo. He's definitely doing a banger job.

But I do miss some of the more intricate page-spanning artworks where you had to scroll from left to right to even get the full picture of what's going on. I guess that is just very hard to adapt to an animated format.

Okay, so far not bad.
I like that they don't rush things, but I haven't really felt blown away either.
The manhwa managed to really incorporate the amazing art on these beautiful colored pages with big impressive moments, but that's not the vibe I am getting from the anime yet. Hoping for episode 2 to do "the grin" justice.

You know what, that's fair.

I saw a lot of discussion in the comments about their workers pay, but honestly, they make a great product. Wouldn't wanna be counting pennies in someone elses pockets. I donated a one time 25 bucks, I hope they will continue to ask for donations whenever they are in dire need of server running money.

Troll post or shill, same account recently asked "why do people dislike google, they're only doing legal data saving for stuff you search" and then ignored every bit of legitimate croticism that was handed to them.

Makes no sense to interact with such an account.

"Legal" doesn't immediately mean "moral". Everything is legal as long as there isn't a law specifically banning it, and those laws often only get created as a result of someone abusing their legal right to something.

Google collects also way more data than you pointed out, in every avenue possible. Ever solved a captcha? You likely helped Google train their image recognition AI. Got an android smartphone (a brand that previously had committed itself to being open-source and linux based)? Have fun with pre-installed unremovable Google Spyware. You're forced to create a GMail account to interact with the whole App ecosystem of the market.
Google can remotely (without your consent) download and delete apps on your smartphone, read your personal data (including stuff you have saved on your SD card) and accesses your camera, pictures and GPS-Data regularly.

I just read an article to prepare for writing this comment and feel actually sick now, I wanna jump ship and get an independent OS, screw the AppStore...

Wouldn't be surprised if mod tools never come at all.
If there's one thing I learned, it's that gaming companies will promise you anything to get on your good side. Take statements like these with the biggest grain of salt.

They can control your watch time better if you make less decisions. Just be a good little brainless consumer and scroll through endless amounts of bullshit instead of specifically finding one video, then doing something else.

It started with autoplay, wormed it's way into search feature, and now it's all over home and subscriptions.

I appreciate your consideration but if you smoke regularly, chances are you don't truly realize how bad you smell and just how far the stench carries.

Also the argument of dying early is flawed. It's not just about dying early, it's about the quality of life you'll face at the end of your life. I don't mean to freak you out, but heavy smokers have a LOT of trouble doing anything physical in old age (climbing 10 stairs, standing up, walking a few steps, eating,...). I've seen firsthand how my grandpa that liked to take walks for hours a day went to basically disabled, in the timeframe of roughly ~15 years. All due to decreased lung capacity caused by smoking.

Thanks for the context!
Yeah, I suppose I will just have to create a new account on lemmy then :)
