Day 26
Day 26: Anime you re-watch as a “comfort food”:
I tend to like drama and angst to comfort me when I’m feeling bad (wait, what?) - maybe that’s why I put in so much Jane Austin when I’m sick - and in the last couple of years I've found my go-to comfort anime to be Junjo Romantica. In particular, it's the Egoist episodes (news at 11!), but usually after I'll play Terrorist, too. It's not that I don't like Romantica, but it's a little too… er, high energy for when I'm using the show this way, though I often end up playing a few episodes anyway just by virtue of being too lazy to get up and change discs. ;)
Runners-up: Before Junjo came out, this answer would have been Howl's Moving Castle (Christian Bale soothes my soul?), and before Howl's came out, it was the Sailor Moon R movie. Both are still good go-to choices.
