Hello everybody.
This site is great. I've loved anime for a long time but Santa Rosa was a barren wasteland. I've become an Alameda local just recently. I can't tell you how excited I was to find so many people with similar tastes.
Things to know:
Favorite anime: Azumanga Daioh, Fruits Basket, Kare Kano, Kaleido Star, Stellvia, Angelic Layer, Princess Nine, Chobits, Haibane Renmei, Revolutionary Girl Utena and anything from Miyazaki. These are all 10 out 10 for me. In the 9's are anime like Bleach, Full Metal Panic, FLCL and Starship Operators.
Favorite Manga: Anything from Clamp
Favorite music: The Cure, Ayumi Hamasaki, STP, Belly, Utada Hikaru, The Breeders, Gackt, quirky bands like Tsushimamire and Noodles, anything composed by Yoko Kanno.
Favorite food: Salmon, rice and veggies, topped with Tamari soy sauce.
Favorite books: Rachel Morgan and Anita Blake series.
Suprising fact: I have never been to an anime convention. My first will be AOD. Wish me luck.
I look forward to meeting all of you and also getting new anime and especially manga recommendations. If you have any manga recommendations with great artwork, character developement and storyline, please let me know.
Larry
