>sweating bullets, I pretend to be thinking deeply while I go over my choices
>Either try and talk about some mega popular anime like One Punch Man from the two pop culture facts about it I know and look like an idiot when they ask more about it, or admit I don’t like anime and basically commit social suicide
>But no... there’s a third option!
>What if I were to make up an anime and disguise it as my own favorite?
>Delightfully Devilish, Anon!
>I mean, we all know how ridiculous some of these shows are based on titles alone, there’s one literally called “Is It Wrong To Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?” if memory serves
>Using my mastercraft of intellect and four braincells left alive, I talk about an isekai where a college student trying to get his accounting degree gets run over by a truck and is betrothed to the princess of Magic Fantasy Land because japan
>Instead of being a ruler who derives strength from leading armies or magic or being some badass soldier he gets all the kingdoms affairs in order
>I talk about this one arc where he stops goblin raids on human towns by developing the goblin cities to give them jobs so they don’t have to pillage to survive and also the protag has a harem now because japan
>They all believe it, they are absolutely enthralled
>Convo goes on for 20 more min and when it ends we all swap numbers
>Still can’t believe I actually pulled it off and not just talked but LED a conversation I knew next to nothing about
>at the hotel before I search up if theres an anime like this I decide to open hulu on my phone and watch some CSI
>mfw the exact anime I was making up shit about is on the front page of hulu called “The king is a Realist” or some shit
