Around 11 years ago I first watched the anime Hyakko and it became my favorite ever. Or close to it. It's the only anime I can remember watching in which I liked every single character. Every episode was entertaining and made me happy to watch. There was never any moment of any episode that felt dull or boring at all; if I started an episode, I wanted to see the whole thing and would take no break to pee or answer the phone or anything!
I loosely remembered that the manga continued where the anime left off, but went on a long hiatus.
I guess the "hiatus" part slipped from my mind. After a depressing turn of life I remembered how much I had loved Hyakko when I saw it over a decade ago. I had so much fun the past few days rewatching the series but after I saw the final episode, I learned that even after all this time, the manga never picked back up.
I feel even worse than I had before I had started rewatching this!
Like some small ray of hope was introduced into my horrible life-situation and was then snuffed out from under me…
I don't know if this belongs on /jp/ or /dep/, I guess. I just have absolutely no where I can talk about this.
Maybe someone else has experienced some kind of similar situation…

had kind of same feeling with Genshiken
Now I'm exploring my 10-year-old external hard drive that I used to back up anime in ages past. I rewatch something; I vaguely remember it but it's basically brand new to me! But then it's over and I get that familiar empty feeling again, but worse than the first time, because I get reminded of how the story is done forever, nobody cares about it anymore, etc.
The entire hard drive is a melancholy graveyard of sorrowful times that were still better times compared to today.
With anime, I experience a unique depression when I finish something, since I never watch new things. Something I don't experience with games or TV shows:
I'll search 4chan archives and forums in general to see if anyone else likes the anime I just finished, and 99% of ANY mentions of the title are just lists of anime that someone likes. Like I'll just see it mentioned in "stuff I've watched" lists and such. Or one post in a million will have a one-sentence comparison of its story with another anime's story. And of course, the post in question will have no replies or anything else of value.

Were you collecting new anime or old classic animes? Cos it was somewhere in the 10s anime became this soulless digitally animated husk of itself.

This is clearly a nostalgia thread. And everything new does suck immensely.
