Beggars can ' t be choosers . This was a good suggestion . <| sep |> IIIIIIIIIIIII ' m . hooked on a Thielen <| sep |> I just ordered study of counterpoint from Johann Joseph Fux ' s Gradus ad Parnussum . I have not read it , but the reviews say that it is good . <| sep |> a silly meme not every image on the internet is a meme . <| sep |> Family responsibilitiesThis . I think is the only and massive obstacle in my journey . <| sep |> Haikyuu is 100 % bishi . Bishi doesn ' t necessarily mean that the characters act a certain way . It can also be the way that they ' re drawn . Haikyuu characters are drawn long and slim with tall faces . This is essentially the bishi character design . Now I have nothing wrong with that . It ' s not a bad character design at all . But it shouldn ' t be the reason that many people think Haikyuu and Kuroko no basuke are ground breaking sports anime while other sports anime that also realistically depict high school sports are considered mediocrities . Now in your case you say that you just don ' t really like baseball . That ' s fine . And you even acknowledge those shows are good shows just not a good fit for you . That ' s just personal preference . But there are plenty of people who consider Haikyuu a great anime , while they say shows like Major , Captain Tsubasa , Battery , etc . are just average . There just needs to be consistency . There ' s very little to justify that Haikyuu is a 9 . 1 on MAL while Battery is a 5 . 9 .
