Ahahahah!!! Look at what I found.

I found some stuff from like... 3-4 years ago.

Xanos was my friend Gina's Roleplay character.

This was just some nonsense I did during the school day-- I used to do a lot of pictures like these. They were moneyshots, basically.

Aaaaaand this is my roleplaying character, my very first respectable one that I made back in 6th grade (but didn't draw her until what-- 8th, I think?).
Look at that messed up hand!
Ahhhh, I have even further back images than these from like 2001 but I am too ashamed. Har har har.
I was such a dork. You do not know how glad I am to have gotten out if the anime phase. I was like a frickin anime zombie-- nothing else existed except anime/manga.

For all of you young readers out there-- I'm not sure how many there are now after that femininity stunt-- never ever ever ever get so sucked into something that it controls your life. Anime sucked my life in for a good 4 years (as well as heavy duty video games). Anime's all right, but pleeeaaase, listen to someone who knows what they're talking about because they've experienced it! There are only a few animes these days that I can actually say, "Yes, it's okay to watch that and not feel stupider once you're done." The majority of animes are like that, sadly. Manga is better. Anime ruins it all. Go read manga if you really MUST have some form of Japanese cartooning. I reccommend Death Note. They have a live action movie out for that now. Hmmm.

Speaking of movies, Pan's Labyrinth was amazing. Visually spectacular-- the monster designs were AWESOME-- and also it was one of those sad thinker films. Lots of blood, not for the faint of heart, but see it anyways. It makes me want to be able to pretend to believe in magical kingdoms again.

Oho, wait! I do that anyways because it's fun.

Pan's Labyrinth was.... insane. It messed with my head. Crazy-ness.

Really? I totally wanted to see Pan's Labyrinth!

You read Death Note? My friend keeps recommending it to me... just haven't got round to it. And the live-action movie is SO popular in Asia.

Have you ever watched Fruits Basket?

Nah, I haven't, but I heard that's good too. And dayum! Death note is like the #1 or #2 movie in Japan right now or something, right? I can't wait for it to come out on DVD so I can watch it.
But yeah, Death Note's really good and you can read the manga online for free (it was scanned and translated by fans)-- I think if you go to stoptamzo.com or something, they might have it. Not sure. Free manga is the way to go.
