Today, I’m taking you down memory lane to where my love for anime all started. From watching Dragon Ball and Sailor Moon as a kid, to the pivotal moment in 8th grade when my friend Janina introduced me to some truly unforgettable shows.

We’re talking about how Sailor Moon and Marmalade Boy not only entertained but also taught me about friendship, bravery, love, and all the complicated stuff that comes with growing up. Plus, you’ll hear about how these shows helped me connect with friends and feel less alone during a big move to Austin.
