Hi there, I just saw your reply. Oh, you actually wanted me to vote? Sorry, I wasn't aware that's what you wanted. I'll see about possibly doing that. As for what my favorite anime is? Honestly, I don't think I can narrow it down to just one since their are quite a number of them that stick out to me for different reasons. In fact, you can simply view the anime section of my user page to see which ones I really like to some degree or another, but with that being stated, I'll try to narrow down to my very favorites; Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, Naruto and some of the Studio Ghibli films will always have a special place in my heart due to introducing me to a medium and how great it could potentially be, and as for ones that I've seen more recently in the last few years since I really starting to get into it, here are some others that really stand out as great for some reason or another; Spice and Wolf, Mushishi, Haibane Renmei, Cowboy Bebop, Ouran, the Clannad series (especially the second season, After Story), Princess Tutu, Moribito: Guardian of the Spirit, Madoka Magica, Paranoia Agent, Shinsekai Yori/From the New World, Hyouka and The Ancient Magus' Bride. Sorry that that's about as much as I can narrow it down, but again, all of these are fantastic in their own way in my opinion.

As for Joker 2019, I'm definitely not the user to ask since I have more conservative standards, and therefore, watch very few R-rated movies, with the very odd exception like Mad Max: Fury Road. So unsurprisingly, Joker is another film I have no plans on seeing. That said, I can comment that even without it seeing it, it falls firmly into the category of something I can respect, but not necessarily like. In other words, I think it's a very bold film for using a famous comic book villain to tell a powerful story of how much we shouldn't neglect those with mental disorders, and how societies can really shape their own villains by treating these people enough. Of course, beyond knowing that Joaquin Phoenix's performance is widely considered to be excellent, I can't really comment on how well done the rest of the film is. All I know is it's a very dark and depressing film with little to nothing that's pleasant to watch, let alone uplifting, so perhaps one's overall feelings about it depend on how much they can accept something that's at least relatively well done artistically, but filled with a lot of ugliness and very decidely not entertaining in the typical sense? I could be more specific if I saw it, but I honestly don't think I can bring myself to thanks to the graphic violence, some strong language, the almost entirely unsympathetic cast of characters, etc.
