General

I’m a soul shaped by the clean lines of mid-century architecture and the deep resonance of my cello and bass, finding a distinct rhythm in everything from physics (I am crazy about space) to fashion. (´◡`) Between studying Asian languages and navigating the logic of diplomacy and investments, I tend to my plants or lose myself in the art of cooking and the vibrant panels of a favorite manhwa. ✧ Whether I’m traveling the world or curating my collection of rocks and minerals, I’m constantly blending the analytical with the aesthetic to create a life that feels as intentional as a well-designed room. My love for writing is never ending so expect nothing less than these long ass descriptions, lol. ⋆˚✿

Music

My musical world is an atmospheric blend of deep textures and rhythmic precision, heavily anchored in the moody depths of Trip Hop and Downtempo. I gravitate toward a sophisticated electronic soundscape that flows from the iconic grooves of Daft Punk, Modjo, and CHIC into the darker, more structural frequencies of Darkwave and Witch House (´◡`✿) This love for French House and polished production is balanced by a diverse array of favorites, ranging from the haunting layers of Massive Attack, Radiohead, and Elizabeth Fraser to the vibrant, eclectic energy of Gorillaz and Childish Gambino. Whether I'm immersed in the nostalgic melodies of Duran Duran and bôa, the synth-driven pulse of Twin Tribes and ULTRA SUNN, or the psychedelic textures of Tame Impala, my soundscape remains a deliberate intersection of vintage resonance and avant-garde exploration (っ˘ω˘ς) From the soulful resonance of Jeff Buckley to the sharp, melodic frames of Japanese Indie and Shibuya-Kei, every track serves as a curated piece of an ever-evolving, intentional auditory landscape ⋆˚✿ (inb4 tldr: i just lowkey listen to everything)

Movies

My cinematic world is a journey through surreal dreamscapes and atmospheric realities, where the haunting beauty of Angel’s Egg and Ghibli’s soul-stirring landscapes meet the gritty, psychological depth of classics like Se7en and Parasite (´◡`) I find a profound connection in stories that challenge perception—whether it’s the mind-bending logic of Inception, the cosmic scale of Interstellar, or the neon-drenched philosophy of the original Blade Runner ✧ I’m drawn to works that feel truly artistic and intentional, from the grand, book-rooted depth of Dune and Lord of the Rings to the visceral, misunderstood worlds of Satoshi Kon and Lynch (っ˘ω˘ς) Every film and anime I treasure is a reflection of a deeper curiosity, favoring narratives that are as aesthetically striking as they are intellectually resonant ⋆˚✿

Television

As for TV shows, I gravitate toward atmospheric, slow-burn narratives that peel back the layers of reality and human morality (´◡`) I’m drawn to the surreal, Lynchian mystery found in Twin Peaks and True Detective, alongside the sharp, clinical tension of stories like Severance and Mr. Robot. My favorites often explore the complex transformations of "misunderstood" characters - from the calculated descent of Breaking Bad to the gritty survivalism of The Walking Dead and Fallout (っ˘ω˘ς) In the world of anime, I crave deep emotional weight and high-concept stakes, favoring deconstructions like Madoka Magica and the poignant connections in Nana. Whether it’s political chess and shifting loyalties or a philosophical, high-tension tragedy like Zankyou no Terror or Code Geass, I look for stories that are as visually striking as they are intellectually challenging ⋆˚✿ Every series I choose is a curated piece of a larger interest in the uncanny, the monumental, and the profound (´ ω `♡)

Books

When it comes to my library, I lean into the haunting beauty of Japanese literature, from the unsettling depths of The Caterpillar and No Longer Human to the timeless aesthetic philosophy of The Book of Tea and Alex Kerr’s Lost Japan (´◡`) I bridge the gap between the cosmic weight of Dune and astrophysics with a deep appreciation for the history of art and architecture, especially the clean lines of Mid-century modernism and the intricate designs of Asia ✧ My digital shelves are overflowing with manhwa, manga and webnovels. Stories that span from the epic adventure of Akatsuki no Yona and the psychological mystery of Higurashi to the dark, intricate lore of Pandora Hearts (っ˘ω˘ς) Alongside these, I’m captivated by the "villainess" and transmigration tropes with strong female leads, loving the stunning visuals and sharp wit in The Stepmother’s Marchen, Secret Lady, Villains Are Destined to Die, and Who Made Me a Princess ⋆˚✿ Whether it's the strategic survival in Raeliana or the defiant energy of Kill the Villainess, I love stories that blend high-fashion aesthetics with a misunderstood soul's quest for autonomy (´ ω `♡)

Heroes

Exploring the tapestry of my favorite characters is a long and intricate topic, simply because there are so many deeply layered and well-written souls I find myself drawn to (´◡`) I find a profound resonance in "kins" like Homura Akemi, Rika Furude, and Lelouch vi Britannia, who carry the weight of the world through cycles of tragedy and tactical brilliance. I relate to the complex survival and internal defiance of "villainesses" like Eris Miserian, Penelope Eckhart, and Rudbeckia de Borgia, as well as the quiet strength and nurturing spirit of Shuri von Neuschwanstein and Princess Yona ✧ Whether it’s the selfless heart of Madoka Kaname, the awkward introspection of Asa Mitaka and Bocchi, or the dual perspectives found in Nana Osaki and Hachi, I’m drawn to characters who feel deeply human in their flaws. From the unconventional brilliance of Saul Goodman and Agent Cooper to the stoic resilience of Carol Peletier and Hotaru Tomoe, my heroes reflect a mix of eccentricity and profound inner power (っ˘ω˘ς) Beyond kinning, I have a deep love for characters who command the screen-the chaotic magnetism of Walter White and Callisto Regulus, the unwavering loyalty of Son Hak and Iske van Omerta, and the whimsical yet tragic depth of Xerxes Break ⋆˚✿ Every character, from the god-like isolation of Kusuo Saiki to the sacrificial wisdom of Van Hohenheim, is a piece of the complex, artistic puzzles I love to solve (´ ω `♡)
