You know how this works by now: :toxx: yourself to complete some challenges in 2023 either anime related or normie style. Most ambitious successful completion gets rewarded with a forums upgrade/£10 charity donation of some kind, failure gets whatever punishment the modmin of the time sets.

Resolutions will be collected on page 2, update this thread with your progress through the year.

I'm going to watch at least two shows this year, but this time adaptations of things I've read or watched do count (mostly because I want to watch the RWBY show)

I cannot learn, and will be doing this again.

I bought a bass guitar for some reason, and I think I'll resolve to learn at least one anime song on it (I have no ide how to play a bass).

I figure I should also watch the shows I have downloaded, so I'll throw on watching the following:

Princess Tutu
Non Non Biyori
Girls Und Panzer
Gatchaman Crowds
Call of the Night

By the end of 2023, I will finish watching:

- Legend of Galactic Heroes (original series)
- Seasons 1 and 2 of Symphogear
- Any single part of Jojo. Just to make myself get started on it, because I feel like I'll end up binging the rest anyway.

These are all animes that I started, enjoyed a lot, and for some reason just never kept clicking play next episode. Gotta fix that.

Time is dead and meaning has no meaning!
I'm very bad at being a weeb and usually read manga instead of watching anime, so for my :toxx: I'll be watching 5 anime that I've never seen but pretty much everyone else has and writing reviews in this thread.
1. Evangelion
2. K-On
3. Toradora
4. Haruhi
5. Lucky Star

Also this one's not a classic by any stretch of the imagination but I just learned that Dinosaur King is on Netflix and I feel like watching it so add that to my list.

Sometime around the middle of last year I decided on a whim to embark on a project, to watch every single 2022 anime movie. Because of the way anime movie availability goes, that's still in progress so I figured heck why not make it a resolution. By the end of the year I will have watched every 2022 anime movie that is readily available in English.

For simplicity's sake I'll use the Japanese theatrical release date to define 2022 movies, just because it'd be a hassle to manually track it otherwise. And readily available is defined as being available to watch at home either thru streaming, digital rental, or fansubs. I try to catch things theatrically when I can but sometimes it doesn't pan out what with most anime movies getting like two or three weekday evening showings around here and that's it, so while I'll certainly try to do that with the 2022 movies getting a brief 2023 release, it's no guarantee. Also these days it's harder and harder to determine what counts as a movie so I'll likely have to use my own discretion sometimes.

Anyways I whipped up a Letterboxd list of what I have seen so far and how I rank 'em, and will be adding to the list over the course of the year.
