30 Day Anime Challenge: Question 29

"What is your favourite school uniform?"

For a guy, Ikuto's from 'Shugo Chara'.

For a girl, Medaka from 'Medaka Box' - though if she had her way, she'd wear nothing at all.

Tomorrow heralds the final question!

30 Day Anime Challenge: Question 28

"What is your favourite Pokemon?"

I have a soft spot for Absol, a disaster pokemon which my husband caught and asked me to name...I called it 'Lucky' XD

Original-wise, either Pikachu or Jigglypuff.

LOL!

....I so want one.

30 Day Anime Challenge: Question 27

"What is your favourite anime theme song?"

I have quite a few of those...but 'Saa' from 'Mamotte Shugogetten' is probably my favourite.  It has the most awesome slap bass!

 

Check out the full version here: SURFACE / さぁ

...There are so many others I want to add, but if I start, I won't be able to stop :(

30 Day Anime Challenge: Question 25

"Who is your favourite anime villian?"

Jinnai from 'El Hazard', because you have to love a guy that can go to another world and proudly proclaim that he is the "ruler of Shinonome Highschool" and, sure, he'll lead you into battle.

I actually found a character sheet for him, LOL!

30 Day Anime Challenge: Question 24

"Who is your favourite hero/heroine?"

Funnily enough, they are both from the same series - Kamina and Yoko from 'Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann'.  They are made of WIN!!! *_*

30 Day Anime Challenge: Question 23

Hmm... Today's question is a hard one...

"Which anime do you thing has the best/most intriguing art?"

Since the art style is what attracted me to anime in the first place, even as a child, many series come to mind.  There is an anime I would put down, except that I've only ever seen 2 episodes and I can't remember the name.  All I remember is that the animation style would best be described as experimental art, and something about a teacher who played piano.

So, failing what ever that is, I'll say 'Paradise Kiss'.  The art is not so much realistic as it is incredibly detailed - it reminds me of the saying 'seeing the world through rose coloured glasses', except that in this case, the glasses would have to be blue.  Very romantic, very beautiful :)

30 Day Anime Challenge: Question 22

"Who is your favourite yaoi/yuri couple?"

...I must confess...it's Roy and Ed from 'Full Metal Alchemist'.  I know they aren't actually together, but I read an absolutely hilarious doujinshi once, and it stuck with me.



All I can say is, Roy being chased by Ed in a maid costume.  What's not to love? :P



LOL!

30 Day Anime Challenge: Question 21

"Who is your favourite yandere character?"


Um...I can only really think of two off the top of my head.  Kagura from 'Fruits Basket' and Dokora-chan from 'Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan' - she's not so much psychotic, just over powered...but on the other hand, anyone who can kill someone without a second thought (even if they can bring them back to life afterwards) definitely falls under the 'unhinged' category.



Kagura is probably the best example of a yandere, but I'm not sure she's my favourite.  I think the winner is Akane from 'Kampfer'...

...just 'coz :)

30 Day Anime Challenge: Question 20

"What is your favourite shoujo anime?"

Um...over half the anime I like is shoujo...

Current favourites are 'Skip Beat!', 'Shugo Chara' and 'Toradora', but my long term favourite is probably a toss up between 'Vision of Escaflowne' and 'Kodomo no Omocha' (aka 'Child's Toy')...though I'm not entirely sure if Escaflowne counts...the main character is a school girl, and school girls would like it, but I'm not positive that it's specifically aimed at them.  After all, it also falls under the mecha category, which is usually aimed at shonen (boys).

'Kodomo no Omocha' it is :)
