Greetings
This is my first--but definitely not my last--entry for this site. Before I start putting up fanfics, entries, and things of the like here, I'd like to tell you more about myself. First of all, you may have already noticed because of my username and my userpic, but if you haven't (which would be impossible), I am obsessed with Higurashi no naku koro ni. I consider it one of the best animes I've ever seen and it's left a great impression on me. 07th Expansion gives a certain depth to its characters that makes them so much more real than other anime characters: they give them a dark side, which everybody is supposed to have. However, I've noticed that in most books/tv shows/animes/manga/movies, no one really sees the dark side of the protagonist, nor do they see the good side of the antagonist. And my question is 'Why?' I'm just as guilty of having one-sided characters as any other person who writes/draws/produces, but still, I try my best to capture that depth that 07th Expansion has mastered.
Another thing about Higurashi is its whole plot; at first it looks like a gore fest and I have to admit, that's one of the reasons I was addicted to it...at first. But then, I saw the mystery behind and started wondering about Oyashiro-sama myself. Was he real (in this fiction world)? If so, what kind of god does that to his people? Or is this just a mere cover-up? I wanted to know more, so I continued watching. This leads to yet another thing that makes Higurashi so unique and amazing: nobody is what I thought they were. --GET READY FOR SPOILERS-- Miyo Takano turned out to be the actual protagonist, and Oyashiro-sama was just this cute little girl who was helping Rika change fate. And that's the freakest part of all: It was RIKA who was the main protagonist of it all. I never saw that coming! But who did? And that's why Higurashi is so...astounding; it's an awesome show!
I'd talk about it more, but I have other things to tell you, such as who I am.

Dislikes: The very school I go to, improper grammar (yes, that includes l33t, or whatever the heck you call it), most of my peers, vegetables that are cooked to make them taste nasty, not eating, broken technology of any sort (laptops, computers, etc.), being scared of so many things, being told what to do by people who show no respect for me
Likes: reading, eating, writing, drawing (or at least trying to), running, traveling
I write fanfictions and originals, but succeed more in the fanfiction department (don't know why). Fandoms include:
-Cardcaptor Sakura
-Higurashi no naku koro ni
So, I guess that all. I'll be writing more in the future! Be prepared to see fanfics!
