Hmmm, have I shared to you how much I love anime? Well not all anime, I haven't got Animax in our cable, so what can I say? I get contented with manga and some dvds. So far, these are the anime/manga series that I love/d: Marmalade Boy (Isaiah girls went gaga over that one), Ranma 1/2 (I am a HUGE fan of FUNNY anime.), Tsuyo Kiss (Too bad I didn't get to buy more DVDs. I couldn't find any), Chobits (Thank LORD for YouTube) and Tsubasa Chronicles (a spin-off from Cardcaptor Sakura).
Mmm. I've got a thing for "romance-y", "contemporary-ish" anime. If you get what I mean. I don't like anime about intergalactic stuff. Probably because I haven't tried it. Or anime about...mmm...robots? =))
What's great about anime series is that they're totally unpredictable. You don't know what's gonna happen, how it's going to end. Plus, it remains consistent throughout the series. Unlike local telenovelas, who are only comical and sweet in the beginning, and then they all go so dramatic and sad in the middle and then somehow a mash of the two in the end. That's not how it goes with mangas. Plus, even though the guys aren't real, they're hot. HAHAHAHA. Atleast you don't have to worry if they'd like you back in real life.
I love Chobits right now. It's a story of this persocom (an android which doubles as a personal computer. it can check your e-mail, do navigation and stuff like that. a robot.) that was picked up by this guy, Hideki, off a pile of trash. Hideki is what we would call promdi (promdiprabins). And he is a "ronin", a repeat student. This persocom can only say "chii" and cannot do specific things, unlike normal persocoms....
I could have gone all night, but I couldn't risk myself the trouble. So why don't you go and Wikipedia it. =D
I looove it right now. It's so sweet, and there's this theme...Chii (the persocom) is programmed to find the one and only man for her. The one that she loves. This 'memory of her past' was tapped in while reading this book that Hideki bought for her.
Waaa. I love it. If you're interested, you can always YouTube it.
Ahh well. The wonders of Wikipedia and Youtube.
Here's the first episode to get you going. Watchiiit. It's highly addictive.
Haaay. If only...can get as nice and as SWEET as Hideki. Ahwell. The small kid genius character reminds me of Carlo. =))
