Well, Don's doing it, and Steven's doing it, and I've got nothing better to blog about today, so here goes:
• What anime are you watching now?
Multiple that are airing in Japan. If you mean, "what anime that's been released in the US am I watching," then I'd have to say Please Twins. I picked up the thinpack boxset a month ago, and only now have I gotten around to watching it. Oh, and it's not a 'secret shame' anymore; it really is pretty good.
• What is your favourite time to watch?
Night-time, generally around about 10pm-ish, more or less.
• And your favourite place?
In front of my computer for fansubs, on the couch for DVDs, though the wing chair is common, too.
• Who is your favourite auteur?
None. I don't do auteurs, I do shows.
• Your favourite OST?
Probably Kanon, though the soundtracks for Bubblegum Crisis 2040 and Ghost In The Shell: Stand Alone Complex would be right up there.
• What is the most difficult anime you’ve ever watched?
Eiken. Oh, different "difficult," sorry. The two Ghost In The Shell movies. Thought-provoking stuff, and not particularly accessable. Or you could just watch them for the pretty pictures, your call.
• What was the first anime you remember watching?
Ranma 1/2, followed by the OVA for Oh My Goddess. 1996 or so. Get off my lawn.
• Do you have a comfort show that you re-watch?
ARIA comes the closest. I've watched ep09 of ARIA the Origination more times than I can count.
• What is the most erotic anime you’ve watched?
Nothing, really. I don't watch hentai, so that takes out a lot of it.
• Which classic should you have watched?
I've been told that Haibane Renmei is fairly good.
• Which series did you never want to end?
ARIA. They could make another 200 episodes about the gondola girls of Aqua and I'd watch 'em all. I wanted a few more episodes of Azumanga Daioh, too, but mostly because I wanted to see what happened to the characters when they went into their first year of college, not because I wanted the show to go on forever.
• What is your most overrated anime?
Today, tomorrow and forever: Naruto. Why that piece of drek is so popular is entirely beyond me.
• Which character could you have an affair with?
Like Steven says, "you're joking, right?" Right?
• Who is your favourite character?
Alice Carroll, from ARIA. Followed closely by Mai Kawasumi from Kanon.
• Which character do you most dislike?
Saji Genpou from the Ikkitousen series of shows.
• Which character do you identify with most?
I don't know that I identify with a character in any anime. That's probably a good thing, all things considered.
• Which anime changed your life?
Ranma 1/2. Not because it is anything particularly special, per se, but it was the show that introduced me to this medium that I enjoy so much.
