| Greetings! | 今日は! | Hej! | привет! |

This is a personal blog, where I'll post... well, what I want.

Anime Blog

Tagged (Again)!

This time by Judai! ^^

1. Which color do you relate to the most?

Do I relate to? Hmm, my favorite colour is black, but I'd have to say a dark purple - teetering on the edge between calm and introverted (cool colours) and energetic and extroverted (warm colours), adding subtle nuance - not being super prominent, but not being forgotten altogether.

2. What is your favorite thing to watch or read when you’re feeling down?

I don't think there's any particular thing I watch, but I do tend to watch any of my favorite movies (things such as The Great Gatsby, Surf's Up, Coraline, etc.) or an anime I can sit back and enjoy (such as Assassination Classroom or Amnesia: The Animation). And I usually can't bring myself to read when I'm upset.

3. How long have you been a member of theOtaku.com?

About 1 year and 9 months.

4. Is there any members from theO that you’d like to meet in person?

Basically any of my good friends. ^^ (Esp. Crimson-Rose, since she's helped me through a couple of emotionally rough spots)

5. Do you have a personal soundtrack? What I mean is a specific set of songs that seem to sum up your life?

Ohi-Sama (Daily Lives of High School Boys ED)
Beyond the Night Sky (by Suga Shikao)
On Melancholy Hill (by Gorillaz)
The Lightning Strike (by Snow Patrol)
And whatever Jazz band/concert band music I happen to be working on at the time.

6. Last question because I can’t think of anymore. Is there any anime related clothes or outfits that you just have to have?

I usually don't buy anime-related clothes because I'd rather spend it on manga, but I would like almost any babydoll t-shirt referencing any of my favorite anime.

Oh, and cosplay. So much cosplay.

7. Never mind #6 isn't the last question. I decided to add a few more.
This is probably been asked a million times: But what character have you've always wanted to cosplay?

Speaking of cosplay...

I would love to cosplay Colonal Mustang (from Fullmetal Alchemist/Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood), Yukio Okumura (from Blue Exorcist) and The Major (from Hellsing/Hellsing Ultimate)

8. What is your favorite time of year?

Hmm, I love Christmas-time. It seems to have a sort of magic. ^^ But I also love smack-dab in the middle of spring up through to the beginning of summer, too. That time just seems to have a deep connection to nature and a great sense of anticipation.

9. What is your favorite object in your bedroom?

Uhh... assuming I can't say something like my phone or my tablet (since they're so often out of my bedroom), I'd have to say... uhm... hrmm...

If I could include my entire manga collection as one thing, I'd say that. If not, I'd have to say one of my watercolour paintings. I put too much time into those things to not give them credit.

10. A bit more of a thoughful question, may I ask something personal? Is there a time in your life when you felt alone or extremely happy? Choose which side you'd like to answer, it is completely up to you.

Uhm... I guess I'd have to say last Christmas Dance. Going out with Ninja was extremely wonderful and, even though I may whine about his antics a lot on here, he truly is one of the greatest things to come strolling into my life. It was a time when we were at our best and could focus our attention on each other rather than having the outside doldrums of life take over. It was truly an incredible time. ^^

11. Now this is the real last question. What do you think of theOtaku.com?

I really, really like it. I feel like I have a place online to go to share my excitement of anime with mature people who each have their own experiences and their own walks of life. I love sharing my art on here and getting feedback. I absolutely love this place and I love you guys. I feel like this is the place I've made my home in the wide expanse that is the internet, and I have not regretted it one bit.

And since I already did my own questions/tags, I'm not going to do them again. ^^'

I Haz Been Tagged

I waz tagged by Snowzi, so here I go ^^

1. Who was your childhood hero? Real, fictional, go for your life.

Probably Emily Rodda. She's the one who inspired me to write. But I also really liked Eoin Colfer. As for a fictional hero, either Leif or Frodo.

2. If you found the secret to immortality what would be the first thing you would do?

I would say not use it, but I assume that you meant if I had already become immortal.

Hmm... I'm not sure. Probably use it for myself, and use it on some lover I'd meet, and then we can be lovers for eternity. ^^

3. Ok your method of immortality failed and you eventually died (but you lived a good life dont be sad now) if you could be reincarnated as any animal what would it be?

I'm assuming I can't pick human, so I'd probably either be an owl or a cat.

4. Reckon you can pull off an Aussie accent mate? ;)

Pfft, every time I try and do a British accent it seems to come out as an Aussie accent >.< So, yeah.

5. How many languages do you speak?

Technically only English, but I do know a decent amount of Japanese. I also know some random words in German, Icelandic, French, and Spanish.

6. Pick a host from the Ouran High School Host Club. Or if youre not familiar Ouran (or prefer the ladies) any other Host Club that you know of will do, basically what's your type?

Kyoya. I like the stoic, got-his-stuff-together type, the type who's intelligent and logical. I need a grounded man to be my sea of calm in the craziness that is my own mind, ya know? He also needs to have a kind heart. So, yeah, Kyoya.

7. What did you want to be when you were a kid?

An author, and yeah, I still want to be an author. :T

8. CUDDLES! XD

Yaaay...! *hugs slightly awkwardly* (my desire for physical contact, including cuddles, changes from time to time and person to person)

9. What was the first anime/manga/game you fell in love with? What was the one that completely and utterly blew your mind away and you instantly knew you would forever be in love with anime/manga/games/whatever tickles your fancy.

My first one would have to be the Death Note manga. I became obsessed with Death Note when I first read it. (I still own the entire series ^^')

But my first anime was Kuroshitsuji, and while my reasons for loving it have changed over the years, it still holds a special place in my heart and is still my favorite anime.

10. How did you end up joining TheOtaku and what made you want to stick around?

I think it was through a quiz that I discovered theO... so I joined, thinking I wouldn't really be active on here (boy, was I wrong). I pretty much stayed for the opportunity to explore a new form of art (wallpaper-making) and because, while I feel like most anime fans are annoying to a certain degree, I feel like nearly everyone on here is mature. So I stay for the opportunity to have that more mature anime fanbase.

My questions:

1. Who is your favorite anime villain?

2. Which anime character are you most attracted to?

3. What's your middle name? >T

4. Do you like to roleplay (or would you every try roleplaying?)

5. Favorite Ghibli movie?

6. Do you play any musical instruments?

7. What is the first anime you ever remember seeing?

8. If you could go anywhere in the world that you haven't already been, where would it be?

9. Favorite musical artist?

10. And last but not least... DO THE CHICKEN DANCE >T

I tag: Judai (just to bug you with even more tags), Snowzi (yeah, I'm tagging you back, XxArrancarFanxX (Good luck in recovering from your surgery!), TheDarkEclipse, and nikkeh09.
