Here's a poorly put together map of my anime obsessions since I was little until now.
I was going to put Goemon's Great Adventure and Fire Emblem and some other things in there, but I don't really remember when I got into those and they've always been there...there wasn't just a time period of heavy obsession, so I didn't put things like that in.
Sailor Moon first! Yepp! For a large portion of my life I drew sooo much sailor moon and made sooo many fanfics....;m; Also, random little tid bit! I own the CD with that picture on it...XD
Tenchi Muyo! I bought a couple of manga from it and kept drawing the characters. Not sure if it was an obsession, but I have a lot of....artifacts...from that time period.
Evolution Worlds....I-I don't know why, but when I was little I was REALLY REALLY obsessed with this game. It's not even that good...but....;m; I had a diary when I was little. Guess what's written in it? NOTHING BUT EVOLUTION WORLDS. And then you read my stories from school and they're all related to Evolution Worlds...wai?! ;m;
NGE...They had the books at my library. Not only that, but the websites I would go on almost always ha NGE material on it and that attracted me the most. Also, I may have watched one of the episodes even before this because I remember talking about a couple of kids and a penguin...O.o;
Naruto...just look through my portfolio. I think this obsession only existed because I had a friend to talk to about it...Also because my first shounen jump had this in it. It was the only anime in there that hadn't aired in America, so I felt so cool that I read the manga before it did air in America...XD
Darkstalkers...my brother and I played a lot of mugen and he also had an emulation of KOF and Darkstalkers, but Ash Crimson scared me in KOF so I didn't get that into it (XD Oh, irony!). But Darkstalkers was really great. I even made my own character, but I don't remember anything about her except that she was a ghost! XD
Tales of Symphonia...I made a fanfic for this and an OC and I played it sooo much only because we had an action replay and could play around with it! XD
Rozen Maiden...I don't remember how this came about...I think I always really wanted to watch this, not sure why...It might have been because my brother told me about the Desu meme! XD
XD But I naturally really like dolls...XD
Hell Girl....I remember I was finally able to watch youtube videos when I moved to my new house 'cause we no longer had parental controls! :D So I watched this and Rozen Maiden. I had several anime magazines so I knew about Hell Girl from before and I really loved how she looked so I wanted to watch it and the first episode of the second season....it mesmerized me! I couldn't stop thinking about it for the longest time so I got very hooked on it.
Godchild...from talking to Pink-Pineapple! I bought the first volume while on a school trip and almost every time I went on a school trip! XD I was shocked by it, but eventually fell in love with the series. Yuki Kaori's art influenced me a lot at that time.
Shirokuro Kitan....not exactly just Shirokuro Kitan...this and anything that had to do with Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. I don't know why but I was hooked on that story...now I'm bored of it. Shirokuro Kitan has nothing to do with Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, but it has the kind of creepy black and white feel of most of the manga I was reading at the time.
[email protected]'ve never played this game, but there were a lot of videos on youtube from niconico of the girls dancing to different kinds of music than what they had in the games. I thought the overall appearance of the characters and the idea of the game was awesome so I was instantly hooked.
Deadman Wonderland...I read SOOOOO much manga at this time. I had a ridiculously long list. I would only read manga that got me really hooked. At first I thought this was too violent, but then I wanted to know what happened next and I couldn't stop reading. It was good for a little while, but then it just got repetitive and none of the creative twists were there anymore...I don't really like this anymore...>3>
King of Fighters...hrmmm...what happened here? I don't even remember when I started liking King of Fighters....but I came very obsessed for a period of time when I was looking at the characters for help in character designing and I really liked the designs in this game.
Sengoku Basara...this was at a time when I was watching a TOOON of anime. This one got me hooked because it was so intense and exciting! I even bought the game! But it's the Americanized version so it's pretteh craps. I don't remember what other anime I was watching at this time. I do remember watching Otogizoushi, but since that didn't really effect me creatively I didn't list that.
Seiyuu Ka-!...another time of reading lots of manga! :D I read a lot of the stuff from this same author who did stories about serial killers...but Seiyuu Ka-! definitely covered up that time....XD I doodle the characters SO MUCH...
Himitsu Top Secret...MY NEW OBSESSION! OMIGOSH! DAT MANGA! DAT AUTHOR! I was going to read Kaguya Hime, but got disappointed that the short haired beauty was actually a girl...XD But I really liked the artist so when I found Himitsu...omigosh.....I FEEL SO FULFILLED NOW! The artist I've already loved plus one of the most well written manga stories I've seen! O.O (I mean, not THE most, Monster is very hard to compare...same for Vagabond...)
That's it!
Feel free to join in on this like it's a meme~! :D There is no template, but you can do this however you'd like! I'd love to see other's anime obsessions! >:D
ADIOSSS!!
