Anime?
LOL ok, so some ppl might've already concluded that i probably like anime *points to display pics*.. but who else here likes to watch it??? I'm currently watching a series called "Kyou Kara Maou" and "Junjou Romantica".. tho i havn't found the manga for them yet :P



Princess Mononoke! ^_^ (Notice how it's all directed by the same guy... =\)

oh oh I love Princess Monanoke and Naussica was very interesting as well but other than that I have not really gotten into Anime at all for the most part
All of Hayao Miyazaki's films are amazing... Voices of a Distant Star is a short film (~25 mins) by Makoto Shinkai which is also amazingly good. the.alphy sent me Voices of a Distant Star a while back.. <3

Voices of a Distant Star is actually completely available on YouTube, but it's resolution is not very good and it only has the Japanese version with English subtitles. I have the full DVD if you want it. The music for this OVA is so purty....

Part 2
Part 3

I watch Anime, and have a ton downloaded that I've yet to be able to watch, I don't have time to list it all now tho. I'll get back here and do that eventually. I tend to think, with a few exceptions, that the subtitled versions are much better, or more accurate and less annoying anyway, lol, but Im a subtitle snob.
lol I'll have to agree with the fact that subbed versions are SOOO much better than the dubbed versions. The character voices sound completely off from what the original (and i bet what the directors wanted them to sound). hmmm i guess most recent experience of this would be Gundam Seed Destiny and comparing both dubbed and subbed versions ><'' Just doesn't seem right :P
Oh oh oh!!!! ANIME!!!! I love anime! Woot!
A small list:
Sailor Moon, Digimon, Inu-yasha, Yu Yu Hakusho, Wolf's Rain, Blue Seed, Blue Gender, Naruto, Bleach, Code Geass, Soul Taker, Tokyo Babylon, Princess Mononoke, Warrior's of The Wind 80's version Nausicaa of The Valley of the Wind 2000 version, Little Mermaid (yes there was an anime version), Karas, Spirited Away, Wrath of the Ninja, and not to mention yaoi.
There is more to mention... But, I don't want to sound obsessed or anything. hehehe *_*

I'm a huge fan of Azumanga Daioh! and Puni Puni Poemi.
I haven't been keeping up with the whole gig, but I used to be hardcore into it ^_^
Last con I went to was '06 Kamikaze con in Houston. Heard of it? I think they changed the name, though...
So, aside from those two, what might your favorites be? Please don't say Naruto...
I still like Pkmn so I can't judge TOO much...
I <3 Escaflowne. It made it's debut in Toronto around the same time that Gundam Wing arrived. But Gundam Wing (and most anime) are impossibly long and the whole collection is never exported here! Escaflowne was awesome.. it was a sweet and short series, but I really enjoyed it. yups.
.hack seems like a really interesting anime, but I never really got into it. It's the one where the characters are immersed in a virtual MMORPG world... <3..

That aside, none of my major anime loves have been listed, but I've heard of/seen most of those that are. Which makes me...Well. Me. You said you were looking for the manga? Try http://www.onemanga.com or http://www.mangafox.com ! I LIVE on those sites every Friday night waiting for the latest scanlations of One Piece and Katekyo Hitman Reborn. *_* It's Wednesdays for Fairy Tail. Haaahahaha. THOSE ARE MY MAIN THREE.
I HAVE WATCHED, HOWEVER---Okay this is a short list, for full list check out my myanimelist (http://myanimelist.net/profile/themegaloo) Which...isn't even complete. Bugger. One day I'll fix that? I listed a few in my profile. Oh just check the list, listing them makes my head spin.
But One Piece, Fairy Tail and Reborn fans, COME TO MEEEEE.
I read/watch waaaaay too much manga & anime. *copies Meg* http://myanimelist.net/profile/prpl_pen Just look there. It's easier and I am lazy.
I need to watch more Baccano! and start Gintama still. Oops.
MyAnimeList totally reminds me of Facebook. XD.. I like! The looks slightly different, but the profiles are nice..
I like the manga/anime compatibility bars. lol. Alas, I'm not obsessive enough with anime... =(

It looks a bit like facebook, but the wall and message things are just extra functions to connect with people who share your interests, really. Mine's not that bad, but if you've seen a lot, it can be hard to keep track of it all!
*waves at Meg* Oi, you.
There's so much anime... O_O

Oh sup Watcher, you snuck in there. Yeah, there is a TON of anime, which you really don't realize at first. And there's new one's coming out ALL THE TIME. Kinda fun if you can find a good one just as it's starting and follow it along!
Harro! I think that's why I liked Escaflowne and Gundam Wing (until I realized I'd never finish Gundam Wing.. >_<) so much. I watched them right from their debut in Canada. ^_^
Something must be done about these lengthy forum threads... It feels like I'm scrolling to the ends of the Earth.. ^^" *jots down a note for self*

One Piece manga is currently at 508 chapters, over 50 volumes and the anime is at...over 360 episodes. I don't keep up with the anime, just the manga.
And I just hit end and scroll up. :D

I like anime series that are complete? Getting that cliffhanger, to-be-continued ending really sux0rs. >_<" Makes me sad.

Wow! I am kinda freaked out with myself... That's alot of anime... Really! Thanks alot for letting me know about that site! Ugh!!! And there is still some I've not added to the list as of yet. Sad though, I don't own like 98% of them. I always watch my anime online, tv, or with friends.
Oh oh oh!!! COSPLAYING!!! OMG!!! I would totally do that. But, you know there is a problem with that... Cause, you know to do that you generally need to have a convention near by to go to, which I don't. Pfff! Oh well, maybe one day I can take my obsession further by going to a convention, which could be a very unhealthy thing for me.
And btw, I am lazy... I prefer to watch, lmao!!! I own one manga and I don't even remember what it is, I think it may be Fruit's Basket, but I am not entirely sure at the moment... So, please don't kill me, haha!
