こんにちは、ブラックホール・スペランカーさん.

わあ～　嬉しい. 新しいの日本語を勉強する仲間ですよね! 私も、まだまだ初心者です. お互い頑張りましょね ^^

In answer to your comment from May:

Thank you for the Turkish sources!! And, yes the website is Classic Latin.

I enjoyed SAO too! I hope that the Alicization arc novels will get an anime adaptation as well in the future. Pokémon is super nostalgic for me. I still like playing the games every now and then. Naruto is one of my favorite manga, and I’ve enjoyed the anime when it’s not crawling through filler episodes. Come to think of it, I haven’t been watching it for quite awhile now. Have you been watching it lately?

I read/watch all four demographic genres; shounen, seinen, shoujo, josei. From your list of titles, perhaps you’d like some mostly shounen battle story suggestions…? I’ll try to give 2-3 of each. Maybe one of them will suit your fancy? :)

For manga, Rurouni Kenshin and Kekkaishi and Nurarihyon no Mago

For current and recently aired anime, I think you’d probably like Re:Zero, and it’s very different but maybe Ushio and Tora?

For already aired anime, I’d really suggest giving Katanagatari and Zetsuen no Tempest a try.

If you’d like to try something different and more on the comedy side, maybe try an episode of Inou-Battle wa Nichijou-kei no Naka de, Toradora or Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun. And, if you ever do want to give a sports story a try, I’d recommend Cross Game, definitely.

If you’d like to try something more serious but similar in suspense to Steins;Gate, I’d recommend the seinen anime Boku dake ga Inai Machi, aka Erased. Just finished it, and it’s really good! It doesn’t have the levity that SG does, though, so be prepared for a more serious tone throughout. The last two episodes of the anime apparently really depart from the original manga’s plot, so now I’m interested in trying the manga too.

When it comes to English books, I read quite a number of different genres. The one I generally never read is horror, though, with the exception of Garth Nix’s Abhorsen series, which I really love (It’s like the scary-factor is at a level I can still handle somehow plus an engrossing story). The genres that most catch my attention when browsing for a book are mystery, historical and fantasy. I recently read Anthony Horowitz’s Moriarty. When I finished it, I thought, “That was brilliant.”

I really loved Megan Whalen Turner’s The Queen’s Thief series when I read it last year. It was so good. The only thing I can say further, though, is try to avoid reading any reader reviews before you read the first book, or you’ll spoil something really great about it. ^^

Right now, I am reading Jennifer A. Nielsen’s Ascendance Trilogy, the non-fiction Homer’s Odyssey by Gwen Cooper -I love cats, so its right up my alley.-, and Patricia C. Wrede’s Lyra novels series. After these, I’ll probably start reading something by a Dutch author like Thea Beckman or P.A. Daum, and my sibling really recommended I give William Joyce’s Guardian series a try. I've also got a stack of classical literature that I'm itching to get to… so many good stories to enjoy in this world. What a problem, huh? ;)

Are there any books you really enjoyed lately?

EDIT: Have you watched some of these already? Pokémon Game Grammar

EDIT2: Ooo! Just got introduce to this today: http://gou.ninja/ It trains your listening skills in recognizing numbers. Just what I've been needing. ^-^
