[Gaara]

Lol, sorry about that Baka_no_fool, i just wanted some more anime discussion!

[Elc]

1. What is the first anime you ever watched?
Samurai Pizza Cats comes to mind, though I'm not positive it was the "first".

2. What is the first anime you ever bought/owned?
Dragon Ball: Curse of the Blood Rubies.

3. How do you like your anime? (a. raw, b. subbed, c. dubbed)
I'm in the minority, but I prefer dubbed anime. I don't mind watching subbed anime, but if given the choice, I'll always choose the dub unless it was absolutely unbearable. (for example, I've changed the channel during one of Vegeta's Chris Sabat-voiced "power up" scenes.)

4. What is your favorite anime series/movie?
It's too hard to choose from the anime I've got to say which is my favourite. Though, at the top of my list are (in no particular order of preference):

* Outlaw Star
* Crest/Banner of the Stars
* .hack//SIGN & Legend of the Twilight
* Arc the Lad

5. Who is your favorite anime male character?
6. Who is your favorite anime female character?
7. Who is your favorite anime villain?

Unfortunately, my mind draws a blank whenever I try to recall any examples.

8. What is the worst anime you've ever watched?
Pokemon. Not a horrible show, but far too repetetive. Ash wants a gym badge, Team Rocket wants Pikachu. Team Rocket captures Pikachu, Pikachu farts lightning. Team Rocket blasts off again, Ash wins gym badge. Pretty much the plot of most of the episodes I've seen. (I gave up after the Orange Islands arc ended and just before the Johto League began.)

9. What genre of anime do you like?
Action/Comedy

10. What is your favorite music soundtrack from any anime?
Argh! This is a tough one. Mainly because I hardly know any of the titles or artists for the music. I enjoy "Through the Night" (Outlaw Star opening theme), the Arc the Lad opening theme and "New World" (.hack//Legend of the Twilight opening theme - both from the anime and the acoustic version on the soundtrack -, though I wasn't too fond with much of the other music from the series, though the music from .hack//SIGN is pretty good.)

[Alseid]

1. What is the first anime you ever watched?
Either some old mecha anime(around here they had a show with several different mecha series slapped together), Marco or Candy Candy. Can't remember exactly, i was very very young.

2. What is the first anime you ever bought/owned? (not downloaded)
Can't remember exactly but must have been either some DBZ movie (gah!) or the Rurouni Kenshin movie.

3. How do you like your anime? (a. raw, b. subbed, c. dubbed)
Usually we get rather good dubs around here(notable mention to Escaflowne's), with only a few exceptions (Tenchi Muyo's...good god that one was terrible), so i don't mind them much.
I do like subs, mostly to know how the chars really sound.

4. What is your favorite anime series/movie?
Escaflowne

5. Who is your favorite anime male character?
Dilandau(Escaflowne)

6. Who is your favorite anime female character?
A tie between Hitomi(Escaflowne) and Haruko(FLCL)

7. Who is your favorite anime villain?
Dilandau (Escaflowne)

8. What is the worst anime you've ever watched?
Many. But the one that currently stands out as the worst for me right now is the Viewtiful Joe anime(maybe because of the hopes i had in it, and because it's rather recent, so the bad taste hasn't washed off yet). Such a waste...

9. What genre of anime do you like?
Action/Comedy

10. What is your favorite music soundtrack from any anime?
All of Escaflowne's soundtracks. Yoko Kanno owns us all.


Oh, and FLCL's is pretty damn good too.

Wow you're a bit like me, Diaz!

you gotta love Naraku! He was a mastermind! All his strategies were genius in battle!

[Edge Riou]

Yes, Naraku has that evil feel to him. He is very calm even in battle and that is something great to be able to do. I actually watch InuYasha weekly, but lately it has been reruns, so I just check a little of it then I go to another channel.
