A New Chapter in Anime Appreciation

Feb 01, 2014 23:29

I've had a love-hate relationship with anime for a while now. Growing up, I scorned anything and everything but Pokemon. My brothers and I liked it because our cousins (super cool cousins) liked it, because their friends liked it, because their friends liked it . . . you get the drill. Ash was my first crush ever. (And now the hero of my WIP is ( Read more... )

I don't think I realized you were a FF7 fan before you were a Gackt fan! I sort of assumed it went the other way around. No idea why.

I was never into Pokemon back in the day, but a lot of my friends were. I think I watched a handful of episodes and just sort of went, "Meh." I did watch/read Naruto for a bit though. The only reason I didn't stick with it is probably because the series goes on FOREVER. It just keeps going.

The only Anime I've watched start to finish are Death Note, Madoka Magica, Tokyo Babylon, and Amnesia. I watched Cowboy Bebop on and off for a while in college, because my fanboy buddies were into it, but I never stuck with that one, and Ive seen the Vampire Hunter D movie, but just the one. I have a number of other things on my list, including Evangelion, Fulmetal Alchemist, and Ergo Proxy.

Most likely I'll never be huge into Anime, at least the way some people are, but I have come to appreciate it on a level I didn't used to.

Hee, probably because my all-consuming Gackt obsession tends to cloud out almost everything else. :D

It certainly does! It's killing me--I keep trying to catch up, keep waiting for closure, at least on some points, and all that happens is more moments that make me want to cry over the characters. LOL.

Fullmetal Alchemist is on my list, too. Someday, someday . . .

I have no idea about anything anime, but I'm glad you have found something to comfort you and relate to! TV is lovely that way sometimes :)

It certainly is! (Though it's a tad dangerous when you can marathon one episode after another after another after another. XD)

Attack on Titan is very good. Very bloody.

I was kind of like you with Darker than Black. When that came out, I had a hard time getting into other anime for awhile. Everything was all about Hei and nothing else filled my anime crave.

But the fever has never died...

Yess, I can't wait for Season 2!

Heh, I don't think your fever for Hei will ever die. :D
