What "Peak" Means in Anime — Plus GOAT, Mid, Cooked and Sakuga

Peak. Cooked. Mid. If you've ever left a comment under an anime clip, you already speak this language. None of it is in a dictionary, and half of it shifts meaning every season. I translate comment sections like yours into Japanese for a living, which means I keep a strange private dictionary in my head, full of words that refuse to sit still. Today I'm opening it up: what each word does, how I carry it into Japanese, and where it fights back.
