I see the option to purchase Sync Ultra already, so folk who are looking to get rid of ads asap can just subscribe.

I definitely understand why a "pro" version would be ideal for a lot of people, but I've been using Sync for so long I think I'll go the subscription route this time to support the ongoing development!

This was the first anime I ever discovered, back in my teens! I think I probably found an AMV of it on youtube and searched it out on one of those watch anime for free websites. It holds such a special place in my heart, but no one else ever seems to have heard of it! Thanks for bringing me a little moment of nostalgia, I'm so glad to see someone else who enjoyed it.

 

According to their intro email (which I received from a mailing list from my municipal councillor):

"Fix Your City will outline common sense actions to build better cities. Actions that work. To address housing affordability and homelessness. To transition cities to a net zero future. To get more people engaged in shaping their city."

Their first article reads like an introduction, but I'm looking forward to seeing where it goes!

Mostly JJK, Bleach, and Horiyama. Summer usually has a lot of other activities going on for me, so I try to keep my show list small.

Cardcaptor Sakura and Sailor Moon were made with kids in mind, I think. Definitely seems like a lot of people grew up watching them.

Keep your hands off Eizouken is one of my recent favourites, and I think would be really enjoyable as a kid. Lots of imagination scenes and a really sweet story about friends.

Nichijou should also be inoffensive, just kid shenanigans. They don't always make sense, but the tone is very chill. Also Azumanga Daiou, similar vibes I think.

Paripi Koumei is a recent show about a girl trying to launch her singing career with the help of a reincarnated chinese general, I don't think it has any scary scenes but a lot of it does take place in a club, and depicts alcohol. But the story and characters are heart-warming and I enjoyed it a lot.

I've also heard very good things about Carole and Tuesday, which came out around the same time and also centres around music. But I'd recommend looking into the themes more, I don't know how serious it gets.

Hinamatsuri - I think this might be the funniest show I've ever watched. It cracked me up even on a rewatch. It does center on a Yakuza member, so there are some jokes that might appear scary, though being a comedy of course everything works out pretty quickly. It depends on her tolerance for those themes.

One I don't see recommended often is Gatchaman Crowds. I just looked up the rating and it is 13+, but I loved that show, and remember recommending it to my younger brother around your daughter's age.

I haven't met a 9-year-old in a while, so sorry if my recommendations skew a little older! Definitely the first three should be good for her, the others might need to wait a year or two depending on her tolerance and what you're okay showing her. But if she watched Little Witch Academia, none of these shows get darker than that, for sure.

No worries! Your second and third communities also have typos in the domain, by the way :)

Some friends and I just finished our first run in For The King. We made some bad choices at the end, but managed to complete it! We'll probably take a break now but go for another round soon.

Also, my family has been playing through Torchlight II together for the past couple of months. It's a little buggy, but still tons of fun in a group.
