From the thumbnail thought it was Nessie from the Loch

Are you asking who the blond guy is? That's Fred from the ancient cartoon Scooby Doo. (I grew up watching it)
I was talking to a friend once about some weird thing happening and how I hadn't been to the doctor because "compared to what [my husband] is going through, this is nothing"
She then told me "pain isn't a competition, your pain doesn't have to be worse than everyone else's for you to go get help"
Mine in Brandi and she has property that people want to buy and Republicans want her to fill out surveys
Immediately what came to mind. It's gotta be this.
I only know Shinjuku from anime/manga. When a certain arc gets animated, I expect it'll be wild for a while. If the hype stays strong anyway.
There's a movie called Shallow Grave. Ewan McGregor's character is on the phone at work at a newspaper. We hear his side of the conversation:
Was there a pet in the house? Yeah, a pet. You know, like a dog or a budgie or a gerbil or something? What I need here is "PC Plod saves Harry the Hamster from house of horror". All right. Well, that's a pity. You see, no pets - no human angle.
This line has lived rent free in my head for almost 30 years. "All right. Well, that's a pity. You see, no pets - no human angle."
While I love manga and the artwork... I read and comprehend words much, much faster. For a massive opus like One Piece, I would love a novel version of the manga that I could dig into, with the novel and manga chapters lining up or notated, so I could go back and read chapters of the manga and enjoy the artwork for especially key or poignant scenes. Then I could start just consuming the manga and anime in real time... Right now it's just too daunting to start. I've seen the first season of live action and anime. I'm very interested, I just can't justify the time commitment.
I think this depends entirely on the subject.
I was in a STEM degree and I learned a lot of technical skills. (Super early internet, no YouTube) In the extra classes like marketing, English Lit, I basically learned how to deal with people because of the professors like you describe, group projects, and trying to see the perspectives that didn't make sense to be initially so I could pass the damn class.
It seemed incredibly stupid at times, but making you think in ways that challenge you in ways you hate and think are stupid is actually excellent training for dealing with the myriad of brain-breaking people on this planet.
High School did this too, but less in your interest. High School was "shut up and do it this way, because that's how it's done." This benefits the Institution.
College was "sure, argue, but here's why you're wrong, or if not wrong, you need to be able to see this differing perspective, understand, and navigate it. The world is fucked, there is so much that is morally gray, that you need to learn flexibility. Show me you understand by explaining back to me what I'm teaching you. Don't just entrench your whole being in what you've been taught before coming here."
Not the person you asked, but it's commonly taught as science in a lot of Christian themed curriculums, including a lot of homeschool programs. Source: friends who believed it, and seeing the homeschool program of my step-kids. We had to teach facts on the side and introduce them age appropriately to real science.
"It" being Creationism.
Here's something fun to learn more:

Some people work together well. My husband and I have been married over 25 years, the last 20 years we've worked closely together.
It's hasn't been perfect 100% of the time, but I wouldn't change a thing.
You just have to figure out conflict resolution AND how to respect when one of you needs downtime (we are both mostly introverts that need to recharge sometimes)
They don't yell low battery in my ears. They don't fall out of ears and get lost (i have weird ear holes) I have really comfortable headphones that don't pinch my ears that I can wear for hours.
Most importantly they DO NOT YELL LOW BATTERY IN MY EARS when I have a comfortable volume set.
