…and DONE! Whew! I can't believe I actually managed to write something for this every single day! Especially considering I had regular journal entries tossed in here and there, too… though I suppose that just says something pretty sad about my (lack of) summer plans. :P

Also, how like me is this: I've answered 35 questions in my 30-day meme. ;)

If you’re surprised by my choice of omake questions, you don’t know me well enough. ;)

Continuing the non-surprises with this one.

So, I came up with this question because the best serial shows really give thought to character development and I was hoping people would think seriously about those moments that really struck them as significant and/or that have stuck with them over time.  Even if you aren't the type to re-visit a series a lot, there's a reason you're a fan of a ( Read more... )

Turns out, I was pretty screwed on this question. I’ll skip delving into an originally much-longer exposition on the topic (plenty of debate on the definition of filler, shoujo anime, my personal failings as a critical viewer, and the fact I rarely know what IS filler thanks to the lack of proper source materials in English), and just say that my ( Read more... )

ARGH?

Given my costuming inclinations I figured if I couldn't come up with something amazing for this, I could at least have fun sorting through my memory for all the times I said "Man, what I wouldn't do to cosplay THAT!" I know I already mentioned the Vampire Knight uniform thing, but that's not as much about characters as it is just the ( Read more... )

I haven't quite decided on this one yet, so I'm going to list some out here and hope the answer becomes clearer by the time I'm done.

This one is tough in a way that the other questions were not. Shounen is a genre whose themes and character types I really latch onto like craaaazy but whose shows I rarely finish. It's also the genre most represented in my backlog/want-to-watch list. I suppose it’s also no help that among the ones I’m most considering half are still running; I ( Read more... )

As far as weaponry goes, I’ve always been a huge fan of modified guns/bows and huge, flashy things that would be utterly unwieldable in real life. Despite their prevalence in video games, I’ve found less of the former in anime, but the latter is certainly represented in spades. After all, anime is limited by the imagination, not the laws of ( Read more... )
