30 Days of Anime: Day 7
Today's anime topic: Favorite Anime Couple
Haruka and Yu from Noein:
I don't know if a lot of people have seen this anime (I can never seem to find anyone that has), but it's definitely worth checking out. Especially if you're all into the alternate realities and such. It's hard to really talk about it without giving too much away, So I will just say that Haruka is the main character of the story, while Yu is her closest friend. They, along with their group of friends find themselves in danger when Haruka comes into possession of the Dragon Torque, which allows her to transcend other dimensions. It is said to be the key to saving reality. The two alternate dimensions of Haruka and Yu's world, La'cryma and Shangri-La that are among an infinite number of universes are in direct conflict with one another to determine the fate of the universe. Warriors from both dimensions are sent ( some good, some evil) to protect/destroy Haruka. Unfortunately the kids will learn that they've definitely met these powerful beings before.....The bond that Haruka and Yu share is very powerful, but that's pretty much all I can say without spoilers. :) I most definitely recommend this if you haven't seen it. It is one of my faves!

30 days of Anime: Day 6
Hello again, loyal readers :D I'm trying to spend this week getting some new listings done for the shop and can't wait to show you :D In the meantime, it's time for today's anime topic: most annoying anime character. This was a really tough one. There are really some that I can't think of at the moment that are much more annoying, and I was tempted to give the more popular answer of Sasuke from Naruto, or pretty much any character from Bleach. I wanted to stick with anime that I followed more closely (but there's the reason I don't watch Naruto or Bleach-besides the fact that I think they are totally played out and overrated. Sorry. ). But I'm going old school with this one and saying Princess Ayeka from Techni Muyo! 
I mean, really, what a hard-ass. I know you're royalty and all but loosen up a little bit and have some fun. It can be argued that Ryoko was just as annoying in her pursuit of Tenchi's love, but Ayeka takes the cake by trying to use her status to gain favor. ( Of course I was TeamRyoko so I may be a little biased. LOL) Plus she flies COMPLETELY off the handle all the time. Though her story changes a bit throughout the series' her rivalry with Ryoko and her love for Tenchi never changes. She she has some redeeming qualities, but she has always been one of my least favorite characters over the years. Misa Amane from Death Note came in a VERY close second, and only so because I want to like her. I really do. She'll never have a mind of her own even after everything that happened, and I spent the whole time yelling at her to get a frickin clue. I mean, she just completely wasted her life, literally on Light. I dunno he might be more annoying for taking advantage of her, and I especially hate him for the L thing too. Bastards. Both of them. LOL Now I'm mad. Also, I wanted to include a character that I love love love, but if she were real and living in my house, I would most certainly squash her under my boot....
Sumomo!! LOL. Enjoy! And feel free to share the characters you can't stand the most!

30 Days of Anime:Day 5 and Kawaii Contest!
Well Hello, and Happy Mother's Day to you all. I myself am a mother to three furkids (two cats and a dog), who leave me nifty "presents" all the time! Unfortunately flowers or chocolates are never one of them. LOL But I know they love me nonetheless :D
Today's anime topic is: Anime character you feel you are most like (or wish you were). I'd really have to pick Meirin/Maylene from Kuroshitsuji on this one, because she is a little bit of both.
In the past she really used to have an exciting life, and was a total badass, but she really came to become unhappy/disturbed with the things she was doing, so when Sebastian asked her to work for Ciel, she seemed eager for the change. In the anime, she really comes across as kind of a blundering imbecile, and Sebastian is fine with telling her so. She lets her nerves get the best of her sometimes, and even though she tries to do her very best, it doesn't always work out in her favor. However, when the house is in danger she is right there to step up and do what needs to be done for her friends. and she is once again the badass that was always inside her all along. ( This is more touched upon in the manga rather than the anime, so most people just see her as comic relief). My husband is like my Agni. ;) Whenever other people try to get me down, he always validates me and makes me feel special. Yay!
So that's just one of the many facets of me. I could probably combine a few characters to make myself up, but Meirin is definitely someone I identify with a lot!
Feel free to share what anime character you feel you are most like. It's a fun way to get to know each other. :D

30 Days of Anime: Day 4
Hello, all! Miss me? Sorry I'm a little behind but you see today is my birthday so not only do I have to come to terms with the fact that I'm an old lady, but also admitting my deepest darkest secret....
Day 4's topic is:Anime you are ashamed you enjoyed. Well, being as I have no shame (LOL) I wouldn't say I'm that embarrassed about this, but I'm sure people may find it a little lame but I used to love, love, love:
Yu-Gi-Oh! Yep. Never missed an episode. Can't even begin to explain why. Ok, I'm going to burrow myself into a dark corner somewhere. ;) Until tomorrow!

30 Days of Anime: Day 3
Another tough decision to make today. Day 3's topic is: Your anime crush.
Mine is.... Hideki Motosuwa!
*GAH!*
What is not to like about Hideki? Sure he's a little strange for falling in love with an android (Persecom), but the lengths he goes to to take care of her and make sure she is safe are so admirable. He's goofy, a little awkward, but one of the sweetest characters you'll come across. At least that's what I think. He barely beat out Nobuo Terashima from Nana (shouldn't have let THAT one get away!)

30 Days of Anime! Day 2
Welcome back. :D Today's topic for Day 2 - Favorite anime you’ve watched so far
Oh man, this was a tough one to think about because there are so many good ones, how can I pick?? Well I did. I can say that today's blog post was brought to you by the letter L..... Did you guess already?
You can't beat the moral conundrum here. Is Light a hero or more twisted than the criminals he condemns to death? Who will win the psychological and intellectual battle between himself and the famous detective L? And will Misa ever get a clue?
Misa Amane is a totally relate-able character for me and if you asked me which character I was most like ( which i will ask that ) back in the day I would have said her for sure. And L is just one of the greatest characters ever created IMHO. This show is addicting and once I started watching it, I pretty much was obsessed with seeing each new episode. This is the only reason it beat out Chobits. But we'll get there.
So what is your favorite anime of all time? Share it here!
