Ehhhhhh, no. I support sobriety, but this is definitely not the answer. Yeah, bland is normal, but it is definitely not happiness, and there’s definitely such a thing as too much of it. It is important to have activities or hobbies that bring joy in life and help break out of that blandness.
Ah, my bad. Guess they’ll just churn out Elden slop for awhile.

Half-truth take. It’s not stretched artificially in the fashion you describe. It is still rife with artifical stretching. Rife with filler. An absolutely obnoxious amount of screaming. Several minutes in each episode wasted explaining what happened last time. And so on. It is garbage that needs to end, but for those who absolutely want to dive into it, I’d at least recommend canning the anime shit and just read the superior manga.
I like growing and tending to plants, painting miniatures, and working on DnD projects. All of these also generate a physical, tangible thing which is also nice (though I really wish I could use the DnD stuff more.)
