Hi There :3

Hi~ Um, I'm not exactly new, but I've never posted before (or really done much beside look at the reviews section, haha). I'd love to make some friends-- since I don't really talk with anyone about anime or manga I'd love to actually be able to discuss it
Let's see... I really enjoy happy and drama-free anime, and sometimes have a bad habit of skimming ahead or reading the ending first in my manga. I also tend to analyze everything I read or watch, which is probably where the English-major part of me comes out. When it comes to music (especially Asian) I am a
huge sucker for visual kei. Though lately I've been trying to get into C-pop since I'll be taking Chinese in the fall. As far as my faith, I' grew up in a Christian home but all of my closest friends are non-Christians. Rather than feeling pressured by them I always felt blessed. My own faith isn't anything impressive, as I always seem to be thinking of other things, but God has a funny way of helping me put him first.
Anyhow I'm pretty excited to be a part of this community
Please message me if you want!~

Thanks for the warm welcome
I tend to like slightly obscure/underrated anime, haha, like Princess Tutu or Karigurashi no Arrietty (which no one ever thinks of first when you say Ghibli). But I'm also a fan of things like Death Note. Haha... even though I said I like happy anime the best, it would seem that my favorites mostly state otherwise ^_^
Hm, Koneko-chan, have you ever heard of D=OUT? I also really like Kelun and the Korean artist BoA.
Oh, rocklobster, what's a jelly baby?

Indeed good luck. On the plus side, I've got a good friend that started learning Chinese his first year in college and has now lived in China for three or four years doing various very well paying jobs.

Thanks. I'm kinda worried since I know Chinese is rather challenging... but, well, I figure if I'm interested in it I'll want to study. And I took a year of Japanese in high school- not the same thing, but I know I'm capable of memorizing kanji at least! Haha.

Welcome, welcome.
Sorry I'm late, I had to take down some rogue samurai on the way here. But anyway, it's fantastic to meet you. Are you by any chance left-handed? We need more lefties around here to help take over the world and make the right-handers suffer the pain and frustration of having to do everything either backwards or with their inferior hand, as we've been forced to do so long!!!
Oh, wait, that's off-topic, isn't it? What anime genre do you like? Favorite anime character? Would you rather be too hot or too cold? What color do you consider to be superior to the rest?
Once you've finished answering all those questions, here's a form we require you to fill out. *hands paper* Just make sure you write "Not-applicable" in all the boxes, and you should be fine. I look forward to seeing you around the forums.

What? How did you know? I am indeed a left-handed girl with a grudge against the superior right-handed people. I would be honored to lend my support in this quest for domination. You do have a left-handed form I can answer, right?

No. Way.
Madam, you are more than welcome as our honored guest. I bestow on you the title of "Coolest and Most Amazing Newcomer Ever". Wear it with pride. Also, I promote you to second-in-command. We will overcome the darkness of the right-handers! They will not stomp us out, though we may be few!
Forget the form. *rips up paper* You're too awesome for that.

*salutes* Thank you for your acceptance! I shall work hard, and begin drafting battle plans immediately. I believe we could make use of the polar bears- they would probably be sympathetic to our plight.

You'd better not be saluting with your left hand, that's considered disrespectful. :O

Polar bears, huh? Hm, I'll keep that in mind. Maybe we can get them to cover the northern front. Some of our worst enemies are in Canada...
I look forward to reviewing these battle plans. You are a promising recruit indeed.
