Pro tip: I sketch notes during anime episodes to remember points for talks

I found that drawing quick notes while watching helps me recall key scenes. My discussion group loves the visual aids. Do you use any tricks to prep for anime chats?

My sketchbook is full of arrows and quick character panels from Attack on Titan. It stops me from blanking on plot twists when our club meets up. Your visual aid idea is basically the upgraded version of my messy system.

Yeah, I read somewhere that doodling boosts memory, which totally fits what you and @anna717 do.

Try keeping a small notebook just for quick show notes. I used to forget everything until I started jotting down one weird detail per episode. It builds up without feeling like homework.

The visual aid thing sounds like too much work for me. I just talk about whatever stuck in my head after watching, like @anna717's messy panels but without the drawing part. My memory's terrible, so I rely on everyone else to fill in the blanks.
