Video Games! Final Fantasy 7

Touhou
Brief Intro "Touhou is a top down 2D bullet shooter created by Zun, a Japanese doujin-game developer on the PC-98 where the first five games were hosted and has developed into a series on Windows with a total of 15 games so far. The game player consists of the player controlling the protagonists dodging through sets of complicated arrangements of bullets called “danmaku”.Apart from the talents of Zun the game is most notably recognized by it's dedicated fan base who have created a whole sub culture to Touhou soundtrack remixes, fan art, animated videos, etc.
The first Touhou game I have played was Embodiment of Scarlet Devil, which I had heard about through friends while I was in high school. Ever since I have played it I have been completely immersed in all things related to the series.
Favorite 2hu game is Embodiment of Scarlet Devil
Best fan games: Touhoumon
Nitori Kawashiro is best 2hu

I'm not really picky about genres but if I had to choose a couple of favorites they would have to be survival horror, MMO shooters, and fantasy games
My top 10 games of all time are Pokemon Ruby , Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time, Dark Souls, Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, Resident Evil 4, Final Fantasy VII, Touhou Embodiment of Scarlett Devil (for the THIRD TIME!!!), Smash Broes Series (all of them, except numero uno), Ratchet and Clank Up Your Arsenal, and the E-Reader (not a game but I'll give it a shout out)

Animu
To normal people, such as myself and you (hopefully), we would think that anime is a small part of Japanese pop culture as opposed to a showcase of what day to day life is like in Glorious Nippon. Yet unfortunetly there are a select group of degenerates (we will call them "weeabos"for short) who unironically believe that the Japanese people are all beautiful high school students who throw shurikens at each other in the street and have eyes the size of basketballs (See Filthy Frank video on the topic). My interest in Eastern cartoons no way reflects my views of the country so take it easy.
Now that I've explained why I'm not a disgusting weeb who runs through the streets like Naruto (like that ONE kid we all knew in high school) let's talk discuss anime like intellectuals.
Check out MyAnimeList!!! Lucky Star
A series that follows the lives of four high school girls living in an area that is based on the city of Kasukabe in Japan. The four main characters in the series are Konata Izumi, Miyuki Takara, Kagami Hiiragi, and Tsukasa Hiiragi. Konata is a lazy junior that loves video games, manga, etc and understandably dislikes homework and school. Miyuki Takara is a highsly intelligent senior that is not seen around as much as the others in the group. Kagami and Tsukasa Hiiragi are twin sisters who are also juniors along with Konata, Kagami is a very responsible person who is usually irritated by Konata's antics while Tsukasa is more soft-spoken, shy.
Why Konata is objectively best Lucky

Berserk
In this world, is the destiny of mankind controlled by some transcendental entity or law? Is it like the hand of God hovering above? At least it is true that man has no control; even over his own will.
The story of Berserk follows the life and hardships (pretty much synonymous in this story) of Guts, a past member of the Band of the Hawk, as he seeks to find his own dream and defeat Griffith.
The dynamic, interesting characters, phenomenal story telling, and conceptually interesting monsters/ setting make this one of the few 10/10 mangas out there
"A true celebration to the fantasy genre. A manga that is its own medium of art" -Mahatama Gandhi
I Hate Griffith
To anybody that is involved with the Berserk fanbase, I am pretty sure you have come across the majority (or at least a considerable amount) who have publicly voiced how much they want Griffith to suffer by fire for eternity they are not to fond of Griffith. I am about to state some evidence supporting those claims proven by science!
Mislead Guts by treating him like a friend which, though a small string of events, eventually lead Guts to leaving the Band of the Hawk
Needlessly sacrificed the lives of many people for the sake of his own dream
Through sacrificing the remaining members of the Band of the Hawk at the first Eclipse he guaranteed their eternally damnation in Hell A VERY shitty thing to do!!!!
That's about as much as I will get into right now because the last part always leaves me mad >:(. But in all seriousness, Griffith is a really well written character and I am happy he is in the series because he makes it really interesting, don't take this as me saying he shouldn't be in the story because he is what makes the story.
Cool Berserk Facts
Guts once killed 100 soldiers in one sitting (standing???) WOWWE
There are a lot of similarities between Berserk and the Dark Souls series
