Anime and Manga and Book and TV Likes:

Azumanga Daioh, Escaflowne, Macross Plus, Spirited Away, Negima! (manga), Alice 19th, Fushigi Yugi (the manga version, 'cause the anime is crap), D.N.Angel, Yotsuba&! (or Yotsubato, from the creator of Azumanga Daioh), Comic Party (manga), Rurouni Kenshin, Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu, Chrno Crusade, Samurai Champloo, Death Note, Harry Potter series (Yes, I know this isn't neither anime nor manga, but I don't really have some favourite books), World Embryo (from the manga-ka that gave you Chrno Crusade), Alex Rider series (Yes, I know that one isn't anime either, though there is a Stormbreaker manga adaption to it, so that counts), Dekaranger (No, don't laugh at me. I don't even care if it's anime or manga), Mahou Sentai Magiranger (no, don't laugh at me either. I just want to glomp on Hikaru-sensei), GARO (think of a darker version of Power Rangers, only removing the team aspect and you're there), Doctor Who, The Power of Five series (akak The Gatekeepers to those who live in the USA), Watership Down, Busou Renkin (from the same person behind Rurouni Kenshin), Kamen Rider (apparently Agito and Den-O and sometimes Hibiki are my current faves) and...something else.

Video Game Likes:

Some Final Fantasy games (Overall favourite: FINAL FANTASY VII! Ha, beat that VIII!), Star Ocean: Till the End of Time, Crimson Sea 2, Dynasty Warriors 4, Samurai Warriors, Kessen II, Kessen III (despite some stupid voice acting), The Legend of Zelda, Soul Calibur II (Gamecube version), Super Smash Brothers Melee, a bit of Mystic Heroes, Project Zero (Fatal Frame) II, We Love Katamari, Shadow of the Colosuss, ICO, a bit of Kingdom Hearts I and II, Okami and a lot more GOOD games, since I can't be bothered to put the list in.

Anything else?

I'm the original fangirl to write a Crimson Sea fanfiction, since no one has virtually wrote one. And I'm currently doing an AeriSeph fanfiction and the Alex/Paul shounen-ai fanfiction, if there is enough feedback for the pilot chapter I am going to submit. And thank you guys for supporting me on reading Nimbus Exploration! Biggest hits for me, since well something.

And for extra good of reading my fanfiction, you can now look at my fanarts at , just click here.

I'm really tempted to do a Kamen Rider Den-O fanfiction after doing a couple of Den-O fanart. Should I do it? ~twitch~

Did you know...?

The actor who did Ryotaro Nogami from Kamen Rider Den-O, Takeru Sato, apparently is a well-trained breakdancer. If you want him to see it in breakdancing action, then watch episode 13 via YouTube, Veoh or something.
