I was actually really surprised when I like Howl's Moving Castle... at least as much as I thought I would. I went out and bought the book afterwards, and even though of course it's extremely different, they were both so good.

And I forgot about Cardcaptor Sakura, leave it to CLAMP.

Anime and Manga have been obsessions of mine ever since I was little kid, I remember being 5 and crying my eyes out with Candy Candy (very old shoujo manga/anime), moving onto Saint Seiya and so on and so forth.

Having seen much of what's been listed here, my preferences are mainly shoujo and CLAMP and right now I'm watching Code Geass, NANA and Victorian Romance Emma. Manga, I'm reading Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle and xxxHolic.

awww ranma 1/2!!! That brings back such memories lol I ordered the first book from a bookstore but stopped after that because I started spending my cash on other stuff. I always wanted to get into oh my goddess! too. I luv halloween sounds good, I've never heard of it tho.

I wonder if the OP still posts here haha I just saw the date too. Her taste in anime is exactly like my friend's. She turned me onto a lot of Shoujo series.

ranma 1/2 is AMAZING!
excpet there's like a billion of them, so probably a lot of your money would be going towards that if you wanted the whole collection.

oh my goddess! is hella good too.
it's really cute, and the art is really nice as well.

i luv halloween is craaazy!
i love it!
it's pretty much about these kids who are obsessed with halloween, and their adventures on halloween each year.
it's REALLY good.
i highly recommend it.
it's pretty gory though, idk if you're into that, but i am!

i've been reading mangas for so long but its been forever since ive read new stuff
i was a die hard fac of YuYu Hakusho, that manga was just plain awesomeness, and i was so in love with the main character
fushigi yuugi was my first love, and the anime made me cry so much, when Nuriko died... T__T
i loved anything by Yuu Watase, Ranma was also the shit back in the days, Alichino was also really good artisticaly speaking
i cant remember them all but those are the ones that really changed my life haha
now i'm only reading Nana and Death Note, damn those mangas are so good

I used to love reading manga but now a days I have been busy. I used to read fruits basket, and vampire knight. I need to finish reading fruits basket because I collect the series. I stopped reading vampire knight because of the whole brother sister issue thing and kinda thought it waa getting boring. I still like to watch short romantic anime series. Now, I am just waiting for the new korra avatar series coming out in April.

I like anime and still watch it, but not as much as I used to. However, I stopped reading manga but it was because I got lazy.

Some of my favorite anime are:

The Rose of Versailles
Dragonball/Z
Legend of The Galactic Heroes (if they ever had an OST it would be to die for)
Michiko to Hatchin
Daily Lives of High School Boys
Cromartie High
Neon Genesis Evangelion
JoJo's Bizarre Adventure
Cowboy Bebop
Any movie from Studio Ghibli and Satoshi Kon

I currently have Polar Bear Cafe, Mawaru Penguin Drum, JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, and Sakamichi no Apollon on rotation.

-Studio Ghibli movies: So amazing!
- Cardcaptor Sakura (both Anime and manga)
- Sailor Moon (Manga re-issues, and I can't wait for the new anime and merchandise! I love it so much)
- A bit of Death Note
- A lil of Vampire Knight too.

I used to love stuff like this, I will watch anime now if someone else is but if not I find it hard to focus. It's weird. I have all the time in the world for Sailor Moon though - I fell in love with that anime (dubbed) very young.

So it's been a long time since I've gotten into anime again but now I have Netflix. I finished Soul Eater awhile back and really liked it!
And since being on Tumblr, Free! has been occupying my Wednesdays with well drawn nipple-less bodies. Group on boys on a swim team...hilarious and hot!




I caught a horror-mystery-thriller via Gogoanime called Another! It was on Anime Network on Demand ( I have Time Warner) and I could not wait for episodes to slowly filter on so I had to finish this short series in a two days. Beautiful, creepy, well animated just everything! It's about this group of students, who like students before them, have had to suffer dying one by one each month for someone unknown reason.

Also quite thrilled Netflix put Digimon season 1 and 2 up in English and Japanese! I'm living middle school all over again! And since checking the Digimon tag on Tumblr, I've discovered Digimon has really kept it's presence alive in Japan all these years! There have been so many seasons and movies!

Haven't watched any of it yet but people are liking this anime called Attack on Titan/ Shingeki no Kyojin. I also want to pic up on Deadman Wonderland since CN cut it off before it got even more violent.
