amelia_seyroon gave me:

Fullmetal Alchemist - My current fandom, and one of my very favorite anime/manga titles. I love the characters, the plot, and the general concept. It's just a seriously awesome series. My order of preference of the different versions is as follows: Manga > Brotherhood > 1st Anime

Anime - Man, I've been an anime fan for a loooong time now...it's gotta be about ten years now. Yikes. XD I like lots of different types, but I'll always have a soft spot for shounen fighting titles, like DBZ and Yu Yu Hakusho.

Manga - I've not been into manga for quite as long as anime, but still a fairly long time. My first series was Kodocha; my best friend was reading it and he kept bugging me to try it. So I borrowed his copies of the first few volumes, and I was hooked. ^^

Slayers - One of my earlier anime loves, Slayers is still awesome after all these years. <3 I was hooked within five minutes of the first episode; I love Lina Inverse. Quite possibly the best anime character ever, seriously. Slayers is a bit unusual for me in that it's one of the only series that I prefer to watch in English. I usually go for subtitled anime, but I saw Slayers in English first, and the dub is damn good. So, yeah, Lisa Ortiz is my Lina. I still haven't watched Revolution/Evolution-R, though I intend to pick up the boxsets as soon as they come out. <3

Sailor Moon - Sailor Moon is one of the very first anime series I ever watched, and I still love it. I remember watching it on Toonami after school. If I had to pick, I'd say that S is my favorite season; if for no other reason than that I love the Outer Senshi. <3

Revolutionary Girl Utena - SKU is a neat series; after all, what's not to love about a heroine who decides that she'd rather be the prince doing the rescuing, than be the damsel getting rescued? The art is gorgeous, and there's lots of cool music. The plot's a little twisty in places, but it's good. And the movie is a special kind of crack. XD

Kingdom Hearts - Probably the first game series I ever played to completion. I've never been much of a gamer; and the few titles I did play, I tended not to finish. But I finished KH, and then Chain of Memories and KH2. I love Disney, so it was really awesome to get to see those characters used in a setting like this. (Plus, King Mickey is seriously badass, which is just amusing. XD)

Oddball Moment of the Day

My mother and I went out to lunch today. Nothing odd about that, of course. We came out of the restaurant, and as we were walking through the parking lot to our car, guess what I saw?

A goose. In the back seat of someone's car.

Yeah, seriously. A full-grown goose, just sitting contentedly in the back seat. They had a bundle of blankets or something for it to nest on, and it was nosing around a bit, but it was totally unperturbed as we stopped to look at it. And the funniest thing? It was wearing a diaper. Not like an actual baby-diaper, but something that I guess the owners rigged up. Which totally makes sense and all, but it was still funny to see.

It was so cute, too. Lightish brown feathers, and it just looked cuddly. <3

...So, yeah. That's my oddball moment for today. XD
