Wrapping it up

I don't have great answers to any of these questions, and Day 27 and Day 30 are related, so I decided to do them all at once.

Day 27 - Favorite anime opening theme song

Opening/closing theme is hard for me to answer, because anime theme songs go in one ear and out the other for me. I don't remember them if I'm not actually watching them at the time. So it's inevitable that my answers to Days 27 and 30 are from One Piece.

That having been said, I usually find songs either irritating (so I skip over them quickly) or addictive. This (OP Opening Theme #2) is one that I enjoy so much I sometimes go out of my way to listen to it again. Not for the music, mind you, but for the totally cheesy Japanese voice-over at the beginning. I love it!




Day 28 - Favorite pokemon

I -- what. OK, I cannot answer this question on the grounds that I have literally never seen Pokemon. However, I went and found a Random Pokemon Generator, and it gave me #151, Mew. Which seems appropriate.

Day 29 - Favorite school uniform

Too bad Saa Koi ni Ochitamae isn't an anime

This is almost as bad. I don't really pay much attention to uniforms in anime, idk. However, in honor of Utena's re-release on DVD (and in honor of cross-dressers everywhere):



Day 30 - Favorite anime ending theme



Again from One Piece, Closing #2. (It's really just a coincidence that both of my favorites are #2.) This not only has a theme so catchy I literally can't get it out of my head, but it has all the crew members in their little-kid versions. SO CUTE. (I can't decide which wee crew member I like best. I do love that they only use this ending after we've seen the first five crew member's backstories, even though they're not particularly spoilery.)


Now to tackle all that re-reading, now that I've finally been reunited with my manga. ^__^

Holy crap, I've been behind on the anime for a bit and hadn't seen the video for the new OP - visually, I think it has to be my new favorite now (OMG cry at the flashback montage)

Yeah, I like the song better for 13, but visually 14 is AMAZING(ly painful! Oh One Piece! Odacchi is such an evil genius!)

You guys, stop with the crying. You're starting to scare me. ^_~

One Piece has a long, proud tradition of manly tears^^

LOL, I love how every parting scene is like "I'm too manly to cry even though I'm a 139 year old woman so I will act like I hate you and kick you out, but then we'll all break down and bawl like babies ANYWAY." Oh, Japan!
