FANGIRLS, UNITE!

[Wang Yao]

-Makes the assumption we are all female here. Apologises in advance if there is a male in the family.-

But, ah. Okay.

I am curious as to what other anime/manga everybody likes, aside from Hetalia. Actually, it doesn't even have to be like. It can be dislike, hate, love, tolerate, whatever---but I just thought it would be nice to have a place where everybody can share thoughts on other fandoms.

SO. -Claps hands together.-

Before I really got into Hetalia, I used to be (and still am) a total...shoujo..sappy romance-lover. XD I totally love Ouran High School Host Club and Skip Beat and Vampire Knight. It was basically all I read for a while, until I was introduced to the wonders of shounen. I don't really follow the big three--Naruto, Bleach, and One Piece--but I totally love other ones like Soul Eater and D.Gray-man and Kuroshitsuji. I also have favourites from other genres--like horror, drama, fantasy,..etc. And, I have read my share of manhwa.

Right now, Baccano! is what I'm totally loving and I'm just...hnnghghghsldfkj. I love it so hard. XD

...And I'm an unabashed fangirl. When I fangirl. It is literally scary. I keyboard smash, I squee, and I spin around in my chair, kicking my legs.

-Cough. Must seem awfully preppy. Sorry. OTL-

...I'll leave it at that for now.

[Michael Dayan]

I'm not into anime.

[Wang Yao]

Oh, lol. XD

Not everybody is.

[Alfred F. Jones]

Wellllll...

Before I got into Hetalia I was literally fandom-less for about a year, but past and current favorites include Fairy Tail, One Piece, Gintama, and Fullmetal Alchemist. I definitely prefer shounen, love humor, and love to be ~emotionally moved~ by whatever I'm watching or reading.

I also love video games and get addicted to them much more easily than I do to anime or manga. I'm almost more into Dragon Age: Origins fandom than any anime or manga fandom at the moment. >.>

[Wang Yao]

OOH.

...I totally forgot about video games. -Headdesk.-

Er. I'm awful at first-person shooters and real-time fighting games; so I usually stick to turn-based RPG's and strategy games.(I might want to recount my Halo-playing experience to you guys sometime, lol.) I like Golden Sun and its sequel as well as Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts. I'm also into Professor Layton, lol. Another game that I'm fond of is Yume Nikki and all of its inherent..crazy.

[Alfred F. Jones]

Not everyone plays them so no biggie, I just thought I'd mention it. I pretty much suck at anything requiring me to aim at the thing I'm supposed to kill, too, so the RPG style is definitely a favorite. I just... like pretending to be I'm someone I'm not, too. OBVIOUSLY. Since I'm here too, right?

I played Halo for about an hour once and while trying to get the little car thingie to work I gave up. How on earth do you efficiently drive that thing??

I loved the KH games, and the little bit of FFX I got to play!

GOLDEN SUUUUUUUN

DS GAME COMING OUT OMG

Er. Yeah. As far as other RPGs go, I'm highy fond of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion for the sheer number of things you can do in that game. And the MODS. I actually got halfway through writing a Hetalia mod...but it's died due to school. I might start it up again once I learn how to do proper 3-D modeling, though.

Other games I've been fond of - The World Ends With You, the Ace Attorney series, and a lot of random Japanese DS RPGs. I've also been trying to get more into strategy and tactical (board/card) games recently, but most shooters still elude me.

Also! It's a bit of a stretch, but has anyone else heard of the anime Rockman.EXE?

[Wang Yao]

Oh, god. I have no idea, Alfred. All I managed to do was to have my scope on a guy's head, shoot three times, miss all three, and then get shot by that very same guy. The one time I tried driving the vehicle-thing, I flipped over and died. -Fails. Really, really hard.-

AAAH. I am so excited for Golden Sun DS, you have no idea. @__@; I'm going to order it in advance and play it non-stop, I swear. -Flail.- And I love Ace Attorney. Fff, so intense.

[Vash Zwingli]

I'm just hoping that Golden Sun DS will live up to the awesomeness that was the original games, because I'll know a lot of disappointed fans if it doesn't. GS: TLA was the first game I ever bothered to play with the music on, because the soundtrack was awesome and always appropriate, and matched the overall design of the game really damn well.

And man, EDGEWORTH. I've been doing a sort of nonstop alternating between *snrk*ing and "dude, wtf" at AC Investigations. Edgeworth is definitely more competent than Phoenix, but at the same time, he's such a hilarious dork.

_{And I didn't think it was possible, but he's been completely clueless to the amorous attentions of every woman in the game. Never change, Edgey.}

[Wang Yao]

It'd better. Otherwise, I would throw a tantrum and sulk a lot. >>;; The teaser trailer that I've seen is really...ooh. It's really enticing. Those 3-D summons. Fffff. Oh, man. And TLA was great. I actually played them out of order, lol, so I'm partial to Felix and his crew. XDD

PFFT. Oh, Edgey. He's...just...-Facepalm.- I love him. Is it odd that I imagine him to have a British accent?

[Gilbert Beilschmidt]

I used to watch anime... and then I went to college. Uh, Hetalia doesn't even really count for me because I hardly follow the fandom anymore. I just rp and... obsess over all things German. Yeah, I'm kinda sad.

Actually, I watch a lot of television. It's almost unhealthy, really. I'm addicted to the Food Network and the Travel Channel.

Not at all. He's totally frilly enough.

also

HAY GILBO. HIGH FIVE. _{for not having a life either. college, lol.}

I spend a lot of my time...playing video games. And alternatively plotting fanfiction and a doujin that I never have time to draw. I'm not sure that's any better than TV.

[Wang Yao]

......ohmigod. I feel like a small child. -High-school freshman. Headdesk.-

The only thing I seem to watch on TV anymore is the Food Network. And...whatever Chinese drama my parents have on. And CNN on occasion.

[Gilbert Beilschmidt]

'Sup Switzzy. *HIGH FIVE BRO* Yeah, I have no life. Except where I do. I kinda have a life when I'm not in class and/or sleeping and/or sitting around on my ass. I'm just too lazy to watch anime, like ever.

@china

Aw, so little! It's okay though. We were all little once.
