deecherrywolf gave me Baccano, Toradora and Princess Tutu.
galuxkitty gave me Slayers, Junjou Romantica and Kyou Kara Maou.

01: What got you into this fandom in the first place?
Baccano: I love love LOVE stories set in 1930s America. Missing this series just wasn't an option for me.
Toradora: It had a really good review on ANN's Fall Preview Guide, so I decided to check it out. And loved it.
Princess Tutu: mikagechan showed me this AMV. And really, HOW CAN YOU SAY NO TO SOMETHING THAT AMAZING?
Slayers: Put simply? lenainverse. It's all her fault, blame her.
Junjou Romantica: Gift certificate to Borders, y'all. It's scary how easily I mightn't have ever heard of it, otherwise...
Kyou Kara Maou: Amazon had been recommending it with every single purchase I ever made. So I finally bit the bullet, checked it out and fell in love.

02: Do you think you'll stay in this fandom or eventually move on?
To this day, I have never "grown out" of any of my former fandoms. So, yes. I'll probably remain with all of these.

03: Favorite episodes/books/movies/etc.?
Baccano: ANY EPISODE FEATURING JACUZZI SPLOT. BECAUSE HOLY COW, THAT KID IS AWESOME. :')
Toradora: Oh, Jeez... There were a bunch of great moments in this series. I loved the scenes where we got to see Ryuji and Taiga growing closer to one another. Like the pole-kicking scene in episode 2, the drowning scene in episode 7, etc...
Princess Tutu: Oh, boy. This is hard. The finales of both seasons really resonated with me. This series managed to capture that intangible bittersweetness prevalent in so many of the old fairy tales and ballets. Shit's depressing, seriously. In a good way. It's cathartic.
Slayers: EPISODE 17 OF ANY SEASON. CROSSDRESS TO IMPRESS, BOYS. <3
Junjou Romantica: Any time Misaki expresses his feelings for Usagi, I feel the need to give a victory cheer.
Kyou Kara Maou: Episode 65, the one where they have to hike up that icy mountain of untrustworthiness? Yeah, that one.

04: Do you participate in this fandom (fanfiction, graphics, discussions)?
No. Not at all. Never. Nope.

05: Do you think that more people should get into this fandom?
Sure, why not? The more, the merrier.

I won't tag anyone unless you wished to be tagged. Then, watch out! >:D
