    1) I think?

    2) It's awesome, there's no other reason.

    3) Memorable characters and a great plot.

    4) Bobobobobobobobobobo

    5) Not really sure. Probably either Cardcaptor Sakura or Pokemon or Dragon Ball Z. Either way, I was probably around 3, so I don't really remember. And no, it didn't (I was too focused being three).

    6) Depends on the anime, but if it was a good one, I'd like to see more.

    7) Angel Beats!, because the series itself was too short and not enough to elaborate all the backgrounds of all the other characters. At least make it 24 episodes.

    8) Steins;Gate

    9) Nope

    10) Black Lagoon

    11) I don't even remember.

    12) I choose one at random depending on what everyone's talking about (actually, I have a long queue of anime to watch)

    13) The plot makes the difference.

    14) In terms of art style, Jin-Roh: The Wolf Brigade, I guess.

    15) Depends on what the anime world is and what kind of physics are there. Prince of Tennis 'verse, okay; Naruto 'verse, no thanks.

    16) Urusai, baka.

    17) None right now, though I'm sure something will stick in my head soon.

    18) How much hard drive space high definition episodes take up (I've almost filled up my 1 TB drive)

    19) Hmm... AnoHana, I guess. The ending actually made me shed a few tears (which is generally very rare for someone like me). *ahem* uh, I mean, nothing!

    20) Code Geass and/or Death Note

  • 9 years ago

    I have nothing else to do, so this seems interesting...

    [1] mmm probably?

    [2] There were people around me that watched/read anime/manga and I got curious

    [3] character development, interesting storyline and the animation needs to be appealing

    [4] Hentai and Yaoi (it's kinda self explanatory lol)

    [5] Pokemon, but I didn't know it was considered an anime then. Ranma 1/2 was probably the first one I watched knowing it was an anime.

    [6] If it's an anime that left an emotional impact then I might tear up, complain that it's over..curl up in a ball and think about what I just watched and then go find anything about it on the internet to bask in all its glory (images, gifs, OST's, character songs, episode forum threads...). If it there was nothing special about it, then I'd move on. If it's a tragedy then I'd just watch Gintama lol

    [7] Gintama (I didn't believe it would ever end after they announced the airing of the second season)

    [8] After thinking about it...it's probably Clannad and After Story (It really had a nice balance between comedy and tragedy. You really can't hate most of the characters)

    [9] A few maybe several times, the biggest one being Code Geass with the MC

    [10] Princess Tutu: I didn't expect much from it, but the story was done well and it's not as childish as you'd think...like something out of Grimm's fairy tails

    [11] Clannad, Higurashi and Fate/Zero 2 times

    [12] I do a bit of research of the synopsis, image sketches, and reviews but not enough to count as spoilers

    [13] Both real life and fictional life are of equal value. The things in between (story, characters, genre, soundtrack...) is what pulls me in

    [14] Hanasaku Iroha: the situation is more realistic in how they react. The MC has to work hard to live, she slowly gains friendship and not everyone will like you.

    [15] Anime world all the way, it's the ideal place

    [16] I beg to differ [and then say some examples] I had to answer a pre-reading question in ELA and it asked what a "siesta" was. None of my friends knew but since I watched Zero no Tsukaima I knew the character Siesta. She slept a lot and was named siesta...yah lol

    I also learned about the folk tale Straw Millionaire from Hyouka

    [17] OP and ED of Binbougami ga and the OP of Arakawa Under the Bridge

    [18] When the anime steers too far away from the original... that the storyline changes for the worst

    [19] There are many, but the most recent: Steins;Gate with me having no idea what will happen near the end

    [20] Gintama: it never fails to make me laugh, get excited and cry all in one arc!

    1) YUP!

    2) An old classmate introduced me to Dragon Ball in kindergarten

    3) An interesting plot, no repetition, no fillers, action, adventure... and a tsundere character!

    4) Any horror animes... or extreme ecchi

    5) It was either Dragon Ball or Pokemon and no. It wasn't until I read/watched Naruto that I decided to keep reading/watching animes/mangas.

    6) I rarely watch anime. I prefer reading the manga, but when I do finish an anime, I fell empty and want to re-watch it.

    7) I don't know.

    8) 5 Centimeters Per Second... it's the best, shortest anime movie EVER!

    9) Code Geass

    10) Fairy Tail

    11) Dragon Ball Z... I'm not sure why or how many times...

    12) I base it off the mangas I've read

    13) Either would work... though I prefer a mix of both

    14) Clannad/After Story and 5 Centimeters Per Second

    15) I'd stay in the real world cuz I'd have to go back to reality eventually

    16) "That's not true! I learned Japanese and Japanese concepts and myths and that a glove in mouth makes you sexier than with a cigarette.... etc."

    17) ... I'm actually addicted to Vocaloid songs right now... I'm listening to Proof of Life like right now

    18) ... When the female lead is spoiled and is really annoying and who is the one getting saved like every single time... and in the end she ends up with like the best guy in the world! And the ones that take credit for everything they didn't do! EX: Inoue Orihime, Mr. Satan, that main lead from Black Bird (not sure if it's an anime)... and a lot more.

    19) ... When Nagisa died... and then Ushio... and when other characters you love die.... that's when I cry my eyes out...

    20) ...I'm honestly not sure... there's WAY too many to know...
