30 days of anime and manga
May. 28th, 2011 04:29 pmDay 1-Your first anime/manga.
My first anime.... I think is Sailor Moon, because it's the first that I have a heart to actively keep watching. Why do I love it? I guess it' s because it's the first anime that features mainly female protagonists and them being awesome. The friendship doesn't hurt. There's still a soft spot in my heart for it.
Day 2 - Your favorite anime/manga character.
I have so many that it's impossible to count. I like the smart, reliable and competent characters like Ami in my icon, but I also like the big-hearted heroes like Luffy in One Piece.
Day 3 - An anime/manga that is underrated.
King of Bandit Jing. It's published in 1990's, currently out of print. It's a pity it's obscure because it has a really cool world building: a city of clock, a undead pirate ship, etc. with the protagonist as a trickster figure disrupting problematic social structure in his journey to steal treasure. The characterization is nuanced and multi-layered. You can find ...... sources of OVA, anime and manga on Internet
Day 4 - Your guilty pleasure anime/manga.
Count Cain/Godchild Saga. The warning needed for the manga can fill an entire page, the plot can be too convoluted, the problematic issues in gender is ... alarming. But it hits my weakness with Gothic mystery and the fantastic Cain-Riff relationship and MerryWeather. Something I love but will hesitate to recommend to anyone.
