LIKES:

Naruto(of course!), both the anime and manga. Although now now I'm starting to like its fanfiction more than either of the two real deals...strange eh?

Yu Yu Hakusho- hey I like it, it's a fact of life. So far i've only been able to catch up right to the end of the fight with Setsui or perhaps it's Sensui (sorry) in the anime. I'd like to see more of it but I just seem to miss it here and there.

Gundam- All flavors and sizes...except DS. I loathe Gundam DS...in fact, I'd probably kill whoever made it if I could find them. Remember, I'm mad before I'm a Naruto fan. Ha ha ha...'looks into your soul' ...ha ha Ha.

Inuyasha- What can I say, he's a badass and he has a huge sword that deals out unreal distruction. Since I played FinalFantasy7 I've been hooked on such things.

Rurouni Kenshin/ Samurai X- READ ABOVE

Kikaider- I just managed to catch all the sections to this series on CartoonNetwork's adult swim. if you haven't seen it look it up. The classic graphics may put you off a little bit, bu tonce you get into the action and storyline you'll be hooked...forever.

Cowboy Bebop- a great show with greater music and art. I never get tired of seeing the cg scenes interspliced with anime.

Trigun- another classic, just goodness all around with a bad ass gun and an angel arm.

Full Metal Alchemist- I started reading the manga before the show. Both are really good, but I have to say that I prefer the manga.

AND OTHER ASSORTED ANIME/MANGA THAT I'M TOO LAZY TO MENTION...

DISLIKES:

There aren't too many things in the world of anime/manga I dislike. The following are the only things that reall stand out to me.

yaoi,yaoi,yaoi,yaoi,yaoi, and yaoi. I hate it in all its forms and in all its stories. I think its a vehicle for the perverted female Jiraiya clones of the world to indulge in their sicko fantasies. Also, I know that's run off a rather large portion of the actually good fic writers. Afterall, who's going to want to openly engage in writing fanficiton and ADMIT to it when it's nothing but a sea of yaoi via sexually frustrated and confused deviants. Personally, I can understand why they ran off. I find myself wondering why I even stay sometimes but then i read a genuinely good idea and concept and it gives me that small reason to stick around. If you want to read an even better, more organized, more clearly formulated argument (not rant) against yaoi look up the story 'Genin'. It ought to be the last post. I think it's at least 40-60,000 words. oh yeah...did I mention i hate yaoi?

ADDITION #1) Having thought about it, I have come to the firm conclusion that I hate Sasuke.After having time both to contemplate the character and contact my spiritual adviser, I have found that he is the key source of yaoi and subsuquently my irritation. His dark and "ass hole" like nature is the key original source for the yaoi fan girl. From him the infection spread to the other characters. If he was more open and expressed heterosexual desires yaoi would be much less prevalent. However, his elusive nature has endeared him hopelessly to the fan girl and yaoi fanatic nearly as much as the ones in the manga and anime for god's sake! Extending from there, I have concluded that while I do not hate them per se, Gaara and Neiji add to the problem. Their inherent 'coolness' factor and the evidence of their reformed character natures redeems them however. Sasuke, on the other hand, turned out to be traitorous, murderous bastard that ran off to shack up with a homosexual pedophile that killed the village leader. For these reasons he officially sucks...then again, by implication, he probably literally does now too.At least the yaoi fans can have that. Let Snakey have him. Let's see Sakura want to come in behind THAT. ha ha ha...'peers into soul'... ha ha ha...ha.

WELL AFTER THAT RANT I'M DONE FOR DISLIKES...(for now).
