I do miss the 'cringe' era of anime when the only resources I had were the few places on the internet I deemed 'safe', my dad (who was active in the late 70s-early 90s 'japanimation' era), and the various books and art pieces i had physically. everything felt new and exclusive.
i'm kinda sick of hearing pachelbel's canon in d EXCEPT specifically when it's used for its melancholy effect like the ending of honkai impact 3rd part 1 (graduation trip animated short)
