Anime List Manga List

My name is Stig Høgset, and I'm currently working as an editor and reviewer for THEM anime. Outside the scope of anime, I do a bit of videogaming (heavy on retrogaming) on the side, as well as some photography. I'm also rather heavily into music, mostly metal, prog and folk.

I don't really go by here a lot outside of cataloguing the stuff I've watched, so if I'm slow to accept friend requests, that's why. The time and pool of energy I have left over to pursue more social media stuff is getting smaller by the year.

Our compatibility is slipping, only 90.0% now. I'd better get on those newer shows, huh?

CicadaNoise Sep 14, 2015 10:13 AM

Thank you. ^^
And yes, it really is! Before I signed up here, I had already developed a habit of noting down the shows I were watching in a txt-document, so I wouldn't loose track. This is way more convenient, however. And there's so much more to do and discover!
I like it here.

*chirp*

No kidding. Right now it looks like this year is Japan - Kimi has never been so that's the priority trip. If the family isn't doing the Philippines in 2015, then we'll probably take our first trip to Europe then - likely UK - France - Germany - Norway. This is all really tentative yet, but time is on our side for now. :)

So I won MEGABUCK$ on Jeopardy! after all. Still might be a couple years but watch out 2016! Norway here I come! XD

Oh, man, you are the resident polar bear of the THEM Anime staff, right :P? I didn't remember you at first, haven't entered the forums in a while.

Thanks for your request :)

I am debating whether or not to finish Sengoku Collection so THEM Anime can have a proper review of it. I'm 20 episodes out from the end and rarely has that runtime ever felt so daunting. It'll have to work hard to get to three stars -- there's essentially no narrative and too many of the characters are irrelevant or, worse, boring.

Mid-July is a terrible time to go hiking just about anywhere in the Northern Hemisphere, I think. It'd be good for skiing the Australian Alps though!

animebirder Apr 5, 2013 5:59 AM

In the day since I posted that, the anime compatibility actually ticked 0.2% *higher*. O_O

It's almost too bad you're not on Facebook, my iPhone photos default to that account so every time I post something from my hiking travels and think "Stig really ought to see this", I forget how irritating it is to try and post FB photos on the THEM boards. Doh! >_< I'll have to email you a few - especially as I'm moving from Florida to Texas in a month.

If I win MEGABUCK$ on Jeopardy! I'll be sure to make an appearance in your neck of the woods. Then we can be all Yama no Susume except the part about being super-cute ambiguously lesbian high school girls.

Anime compatibility: 90.2%
Manga compatilbility: 87.2%

All these years of reviewing and even coming from opposite sides of the world we arrive at one heck of a consensus.

I've had it for a while. I just haven't been doing much with it.

EveryNameTaken Mar 3, 2013 3:28 PM

Yup. How are you? How's THEM doing?

memoryofbreaker Jan 26, 2013 3:14 PM

Not an original, But added to, if that's what your wondering.

I started reading Ryuushika Ryuushika after seeing your recommendation in Yotsuba&'s page. I really want to thank you for that because I'm really, REALLY enjoying it.

What's with all the spammers on MAL these days? Their messages are so OBVIOUS!!! :D

animebirder Oct 15, 2011 10:19 AM

Also, holy crap, after hundreds of anime seen, we STILL have over a 90% compatibility rate (and that manga rate will probably climb as I update my list).

animebirder Oct 15, 2011 9:10 AM

It's official, we now have to campaign for a random Lumsk anime.
