Hi, I’m AnimeNEET—just a dude who traded a ‘normal’ life for late-night binges, weekly chapter drops, and endless debates about which anime is actually peak.If it’s got jaw-dropping animation, a plot twist that wrecks your soul, or a protagonist with main-character energy dialed to 100, you’ll hear about it here. News, reviews, and the hottest takes straight from the weeb trenches—no filter, no fluff, just pure otaku energy.So, if your watchlist is never-ending and your manga stack is threatening to bury you alive, you’re in the right place. Welcome to the NEET side of anime fandom—where the grind never stops (unless it’s for a seasonal binge).
