I'm not sure if these count as hobbies or interests as I don't do all of them all of the time of course.
>Drawing
I've been drawing since a young age but I never really learned how to do so properly so I have to start over again from the fundamentals.
>Anime
I used to be really into it, but within the past year or so I haven't been watching as much. Not sure if it's because of burnout from following seasonal anime for ten years or a side effect of depression.
>Reading
I found it easier to read things I liked when it was handpicked for me in school. I don't really read much unless reading things online counts, which I don't think it does. Similar situation with manga where I prefer seeing it voiced and animated.
>Cartoons
I used to be more into these too but I've lost interest. I still check out the occasional stuff. I like rewatching older animated Disney films and complaining about how CGI has overtaken 2D animation in America.
>Video Games
I mostly play Nintendo and idolmaster games. I'm not that good so I mostly stick to casual stuff. I've been enjoying Splatoon though.
>Music
I've learned some more about it since meeting Chihaya. I mostly listen to it for pleasure rather than analyzing it. I'm not too picky with genre. I had learned a bit of piano but never really got farther with it after not having access to a school one. Playing actual taiko drums once was pretty fun too, but I only got to do so for a bit as teachers complained about the noise and they got taken away.

Seconded about the Computer. It's more of an addiction or something used to do various things when I have nothing else to do. I'd put things like browsing online and chatting with others online under this too. I really dislike when others assume I know shit about computers just because I'm on one all day. That'd be like assuming they're phone or TV experts from watching TV or playing mobage all day.
>Comics
I'm still new to it comic book wise. I mostly got into it through animated DC stuff and Marvel movies. Batman's my favorite.
>General Japan/weeb stuff
Learning Japanese, learning more about Japan, listening to Japanese music, etc. I don't mention much as only others into Japan would be interested.
>Idol stuff
I like learning more about the history of Japanese idols, it's fans, learning the calls for songs, etc.
>Yo-Kai Watch
It gets it's own category as it's a multimedia addiction. I've only gotten into it during the past year, and now that it's coming overseas there'll be even more. Again something I don't get to talk about much because of Pokemon fans and people not being interested. I've been checking out more about Youkai and Japanese myth because of it too.
>Cooking/Baking
I've wanted to get into it more, but there's a lot of startup costs and having to buy a bunch of tools and ingredients for everything you want to make. That and my attempt at doing character chocolate failed because I didn't know how to melt white chocolate properly and burned it.

I think I'll do a things I'd like to get into sometime too
>Sewing
>Video Editing
>More Model Building
>Working out
>Photography
The only thing that's really an issue is how much time I spend on the computer, but if I got more into other hobbies that wouldn't remain an issue anyways.
