Red Monaca's Interests
General |
I mostly spend my time reading (things scholarly and otherwise, like manga), writing, and researching. |
Music |
I mostly listen to protest songs, post-rock, and psytrance. (You can visit my RYM account here.) |
Movies |
I watch a large amount of films, with great variety. I am primarily interested in Japanese animation films (both mainstream and experimental) and genre films like crime, action, horror, and the like. (You can visit my Letterboxd account below in my links.) |
Television |
I don't watch much anime at the moment, but my all-time favorites are Evangelion, Serial Experiments Lain, Haibane Renmei, Paranoia Agent, Haruhi Suzumiya, Girls' Last Tour, Azumanga Daioh, Gosick, Madoka Magica, and PSYCHO-PASS. |
Books |
I devote my time reading non-fiction, scholarly books, centering around the topics I'm interested in, or related to the areas of my research: continental philosophy (phenomenology, deconstruction, structuralism, etc.), technology, psychoanalysis, and Marxism (and critical theory in general). In the case of fiction, meanwhile, the kind of horror written by Lovecraft, Ligotti, and the New Weird is my vibe. (You can visit my Goodreads account here, which is currently under construction.) |
Heroes |
I do not do idol-worship, with the sole exception of Jacques Derrida. He's the embodiment of coolness. |

Just your typical anonymous, neurotic busybody who happens to study philosophy. Here also lies leftist allegiances, so be forewarned. At the moment, the bulk of my activity consists in writing blog posts, so I appreciate it when you check those out.

it's been a hot minute since you last posted some eyebrow-raising, long-formish writing (or blogging, i suppose). d'you plan on publishing anything new these days or is life holding your spare time captive? |

thanks for the add!! you seem like a very cool person :) |

you should probably give higurashi no naku koro ni a read, you seem like the type of person who'd enjoy it!! I'm very familiar with the When They Cry franchise, and I hold it in high regard. With regards to Higurashi, I've only experienced the anime adaptations and not the original visual novels (which I have copies of, but haven't found the time to play them). However, I've played through the entirety of Umineko and the first chapter of Ciconia, which are by far the greatest pieces of fiction I've read so far. by Red Monaca; ; Report thats so crazy, im planning on reading umineko although ive seen the anime....and ive read two higurashi visual novels and watched the anime The anime adaptation doesn't do justice to Umineko (and I'm starting to suspect the same for the Higurashi anime), which I why I couldn't recommend enough for you to start reading the novels! They're exhilarating, scary, and thought-provoking. There's spectacle too, if you're into the action-y stuff of Fate and most shounen anime. by Red Monaca; ; Report |

Oooooo a philosophy buff! I'm interested in the philosophy of human behaviors and societal norms lol. I don't do it because I'm smart tho, I'm pretty dumb actually. It's all just the result of me noticing something about people and overthinking it lul That's pretty cool! I hope that we could have discussions about your thoughts on things when the opportunity comes! by Red Monaca; ; Report |

Thanks for the request! Really insightful blog you have. I especially appreciate that you have a couple blog posts dedicated to translations of Filipino activist songs. During dark times, such a thing puts a smile on your face. On a kind of related tangent, reaaaally wish I could see the Dekada '70 musical. Thanks for accepting it! And same here too, even though I don't have the money for it xD by Red Monaca; ; Report |
I'll DM you what I'm working on atm!
