Afterthoughts and Forgotten Symptoms

These are extra symptoms that I had forgotten to mention. Here is Chapter 2: 50 more ways to tell if you're obsessed. And thanks to Unknown-Character for mentioning some of the forgotten ones.

You went too far with your anime convention costume. Way too far.

You consider naming your daughter Sakura.

Your two sons are named 'Sho' and 'Ko' respectively.

You shoot your enemies with magic arrows.

You can go back to Feudal Japan through a well at a shrine your family has.

Your family has a shrine at all.

You rant for hours about how Rurouni Kenshin probably wouldn't have gotten canceled if the Jinchuu Arc had been animated and there weren't so many filler episodes.

You know exactly what the hell was just said.

You downloaded all of the InuYasha ending theme songs.

You have a blue cat named 'Puar' respectively.

Your best friend is a shape-shifting perverted pig (I literally mean a pig) who never graduated shape-shifting school probably because he got caught when he transformed into lingerie and hid in the teacher's underwear drawer. Plus he can only transform for five minutes at a time.

You're a genius in technology but you can't find clothes to wear that aren't tacky.

You have a wish-granting Schnauzer.

You think a freaking ROBOT is a human at your school.

You bribe Yoshiyuki Tomino, Hajime Yadate, and Masatsugu Iwase into giving you the copyright for Gundam Seed.

You actually dress up as a schoolgirl for Halloween.

You build life-size models of the Freedom, Strike, and Justice Gundams.

You often say "Akira Toriyama... What will he think of next?".

You have a mechanical bird that follows you everywhere.

You downloaded the opening theme for Hikaru no Go without knowing what the hell the song sounded like.

You name your Neopet 'KoudaKumi144'.

You try to dance like BoA but end up breaking your neck or you leg, or both.

You sing in Japanese under your breath during math class.

You read excerpts from your fan fiction at a talent show for your family reunion, even though no one in the whole damn room except for your brother and your sister's boyfriend know what the flip you're freaking talking about.

You think Z.A.F.T. stands for the Zodiac Alliance of Flay-haters Treaty.

You complain for hours about why the English dub of Dragonball Z couldn't have had the original Japanese soundtrack.

You actually knew that the soundtrack for the English dub of Dragonball Z wasn't the original Japanese soundtrack.

You frequently say, "Yoko Kanno... What will she think of next?"

You know who the hell Yoko Kanno is.

You constantly sing songs from the soundtrack for Cowboy Bebop: The Movie.

You start ranting to your best friend about how T.M. Revolution is not gay because he was married to Yumi from Puffy AmiYumi and the only reason why they divorced was because there was a rumor about Yumi having an affair with someone else, which you doubt was true at all...

You actually succeeded in converting your best friend over to J-pop instead of letting them continue listening to Aaron Carter.

You hate Aaron Carter with a passion.

You curse all the movie stores at your local mall for not having any .hack/SIGN DVDs.

You memorized just about all of the songs on the soundtrack for .hack/SIGN that have lyrics.

You think that Yoko Kanno and Yuki Kajiura are composing geniuses.

You've come up with over 100 ways to tell if you're obsessed with anime.

You rant and swear about how horrible the dubbing of an anime is.

You got a headache from listening to 'New World' and 'Ready Steady Go' too many times in a row.

You can actually see certain anime characters forming a band and singing your favorite Alicia Keys songs.

The only reason why you watched Cowboy Bebop and Cowboy Bebop: The Movie and liked it was because Yoko Kanno composed the music for it.

You can't believe that this websitedoesn't have a section for Pokemon fics. And yet they have one for Samurai Pizza Cats. How odd...

Your new girlfriend is the reincarnation of your old girlfriend who sealed you to a tree with a magic arrow fifty years ago...Oh! And your new girlfriend time travels. She's really from 500 years into the future. And you're in Feudal Japan.

You can't get the songs 'Find the Way' and "Hikari no Naka E' out of your head at night, which is part of the reason why you can never wake up until two-thirty in the afternoon over the summer.

Weird things pop out of your forehead at random.

If you were able to choose any Dragonball Z character to come to life in the real world it would be Buu because you find him to be slightly endearing and cute.

You have a demented Vespa.

Characters in your fan fictions serve as muses in your reviews and before and after the chapters of your stories.

You reluctantly admitted that you liked the dub of 'Freckles' a lot better.

You were actually able to read/write all 150 ways (minus the one you're reading now) and still feel that you're missing some ways but can't figure out what the hell they are!

Afterthoughts...

As most of you loyal readers have already figured out, I got most of these that are actually true to life. There are a few characters I hate with a passion, but sadly I only wish I had voodoo dolls of them. And I do fall into demented daydreams of anime characters in bands. So sue me! And I do find Buu to be slightly endearing. And never EVER go trick-or-treating as a Japanese schoolgirl! Dogs will flip your skirt! I always promised myself that I would get three cats that are black, white, and gray and name them Luna, Artemis, and Diana. And if my hair weren't so goddamn curly I would grow it out and dye it, but it wouldn't be pink or blue or red. I would just get highlights. And if any of you out there do happen to know how to dance like BoA I would really appreciate it if you contacted me! I really would like to dance like her. FYI: I didn't really argue with the TV after the last episode of Dragonball GT, but it really did tick me off. And I really did think it was an insult to Akira Toriyama. I am mad at my brother for getting the latest L'ArcenCiel CD before I did, the lucky jerk, and I have worn mini skirts over jeans to school. And if you have seen the animated movie for Pippi Longstocking then you will more than likely agree with me when I say the dub of 'Freckles' is a lot better. Well, maybe that's just me. And I'm still upset to no end that Cartoon Network dropped Rurouni Kenshin and I never got to see past episode 24 when Kaoru got drunk. That was, in my opinion, one of the best episodes and not just because Kaoru slapped Megumi. Although, that was funny as hell! Though, the fight between Kenshin and Sano was awesome. Too bad it didn't exist in the manga. That is the only time I feel that the anime has done a better job with a story.
