Hello and happy new year, everyone!

With the revamp of this blog, I kinda wanted to make a post about how I will be formatting my posts going forward…or at least, how I would like to format my posts going forward ^^;

On my home page, I mentioned how I want to remember the things I consume not just by saying I watched, read, or played them. I want to be able to go back and read about what hooked me in the first place. In a way, I want to be able to go back to the time when I first got my hands on whatever it was and relive that moment.

I’ve actually tried to do something similar to this a few years back in the form of a one-woman podcast (which I’d affectionately named “Hiba Chats”), but it never took off because I didn’t have the time to sit down and work on episodes as frequently as I had wanted. It was an endeavor I wasn’t quite ready for.

Well, this is me making time for it now…in the form of these posts. These will obviously be planned a little differently than the podcast I had in mind, but I hope to still maintain the point I had wanted to make with the creation of my nonexistent podcast. And that point was to just talk about the things that I enjoy and not be afraid to do so.

Anime and manga were hobbies turned passions the older I got. However, I was always really shy and nervous about sharing my opinions or thoughts about it. So the creation of my podcast was going to be a place for me to just talk about the things that I’m passionate about. It was meant to be a place I could be myself.

So with this revamp, that’s exactly what I’m gonna do. This may not be your conventional “review blog,” but I wanted to put a piece of myself into each post so you get to see what I think about when I pick up a new series, what draws me to it in the first place, and what my overall thoughts about it are.

Like I said above though, this is how I would like to format my posts going forward. I guess I won’t really know how everything will go until my first actual post goes live. I’ll take it one series at a time and see where that gets me haha

Until next time! Bye bye~
