Stolen from bjorkubus and pocky_slash
Your favourite film watched this year?
I'm not a film buff and can't really remember what I saw.
Maybe Ratatouille and The Men who Stared at Goats
Your favourite book read this year?
The Omnivore's Dilemma by Michael Pollan
Your favourite album or song to listen to this year?
Deluhi's discog, Cali=/=Gari's 10
Your favourite TV show of the year?
No Reservations with Anthony Bourdain. Remains the only tv show that I actually actively pursue.
Your favourite LJ community of the year?
takarazuka, relatively dramaless, smart, no users under the age of 16?
Your best new fandom discovery of the year?
Most of my fandoms are pretty old...Takarazuka? That's not just from this year though...
Your biggest fandom disappointment of the year?
D. Grayman just DIED. No point in following that anymore. ES21 ended in the most anticlimactic way possible. VK continues to rot, nibbled on and sucked dry by the terrible tag team of commercialism and an obsessive but empty headed fanbase.
D went major on a label affiliated with AVEX TRAX of all people. Did a complete 180 in style and proceeded to write soulless, obnoxious pop rock.
Kagrra, continues their descent into generic, inoffensive elevator music.
Recently one of the jrock blogs I read did a kind of 10 year summary of the scene and it was just a stab of nostalgia and dread that a) I remember when all those albums came out and b) VK will never be like that again
Your TV boyfriend of the year?
Asami Hikaru, Anthony Bourdain, Kiriya Hiromu, Medicine Seller
Your TV girlfriend of the year?
Asami Hikaru
Your biggest squee moment of the year?
Kiriya Hiromu getting tapped for Top Star
The most missed of your old fandoms?
Eyeshield 21, much joy was had but your ridonkulous characters and your unpredictable plot, then the authors decide that "welp, that's it folks" and couldn't have made it more apparent that they were trying to kill the series.
Ended in the most tepid, weak ass way possible and answered no questions.
The fandom you haven't tried yet, but want to?
Vintage Takarazuka. Does that count as another fandom?
Honestly there are no new manga/anime series that I could care less about.
Your biggest fan anticipations for the New Year?
- More Dorohedoro, I haven't read a series in a while that actually seems like it has answers to its own questions and the mangaka isn't pulling things out of their ass as they go.
- Kiriya Hiromu top star!!!
- New season of No Reservations
- Attempting to get my paws on Cali=/=Gari's fan club only 11 album
