It's anime done right, if anything.

ilu, you are so ridiculous.

2. Oh man. I had a similar feeling of apathy towards Avatar myself, too. And then I watched it. Admittedly I didn't think the first season was amazing or anything but it was good enough to keep me interested. Then I watched the second season and honestly, I feel it's probably even better than the vast majority of anime I've seen in the past year.

4, 5, 7, 9. Oh man. More power to all of you because ahaha wow (even if I dropped Who Wants to Be a Superhero this year after Mitzvah got kicked off because aside from maybe Parthenon, nobody's really compelling/hilarious enough to keep my interest). #7, which one did you meet, out of curiosity?

9. Sad thing is it'd be totally plausible, too.

10. Fans are fans. It doesn't matter how they got into it, whether they sat in dusty viewing rooms watching pure uncut Japanese old-school anime while reading translated printouts, or sat in the comfort of their living room watching the Sailor Scouts fight the Negaverse.

16. Your friends suck.

2. Personally, I think much less of people who don't like Avatar at all than I would someone who decides to give it a try. Maybe they're the same?

3. Haha, that's so the kind of thing I'd do!

4. I used to be bugged by RPS, but now I don't really mind it. If you really do like the pairing, try not to let it bug you?

10. Pshh! Mine was Pokemon, from Kids WB, and everyone I know started liking anime from either it or Sailor Moon. Ignore the elitists who seem convinced that everyone needs to magically wake up one day and go "Hey... I think I feel like downloading a subbed version of Please Teacher!" or something.

13. Heyy, that's the chick with the great House comics... :O

16. Err. That's weird. People can ship whatever they damn well want. Personally, I like Hikaru/Kaoru/Haruhi.

Mori/Haruhi! I love that pairing. XD

Wait, wait, I forgot about Jet. IGNORE ME.

ROFL Shhh he's gonna pull off a mask and end up being Tobi Azula or some shit at the end and be alive~

Mister Mitzvah was pretty awesome but I had a feeling he wasn't going to last. Hygena is beginning to bug the crap out of me and so is the Diffuser. But Parthenon, Whip-snap and Hyper-Strike all have my votes. :D

BTW- Question ftw. ♥

Re: 4

[identity profile] ironjill.livejournal.com 2007-08-17 11:11 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm thinking its going to be either Hyperstrike or Parthenon to win for real! I love both of them so much, and I agree that Parthenon is absolutely adorable! :D

[identity profile] laserdragon.livejournal.com 2007-08-17 11:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, it's clearly made by people who love the genre, but want to make their own works. I think there are a lot of bad American-mad cartoons that are trying to ride on the popularity of anime, but Avatar really isn't one of them.

[identity profile] ew-younerd.livejournal.com 2007-08-17 11:11 pm (UTC)(link)
...WELL MAYBE WE COULD HAVE DONE WITH THAT. :( But instead we at least kind of get lesbian subtext!! 8D ZukoJet was all in my mind

[identity profile] exhero.livejournal.com 2007-08-17 11:12 pm (UTC)(link)
10. Yes, thank you. &hearts People seem to think you're a stupid newbie because of it. :/

11. Venture Brothers ftw! XD

I hope you're not trying to say that Tamaki/Haruhi doesn't have chemistry. :/ I mean, come on.

Besides, can't we just ship and let ship? Do you really have to bitch about the canon het pairings, just because you don't like them? (On that note, do your friends have to be such dicks about the slash and minor het pairings?)

I ship Tamaki/Haruhi and Kyouya/Tamaki with nearly equal enthusiasm, ftr, and Mori/Haruhi is the only other Haruhi pairing I'll accept.

Just don't get me started on the twins.

7. OH MY GOD IS THAT BIG WOLF ON CAMPUS?! I USED TO LOVE THAT SHOW SO MUCH OMG

10. Anyon who says that is stupid. [adult swim] is how I found Cowboy Bebop which is a freaking SEMINAL ANIME. Toonami had Gundam Wing, om nom. WHOEVER SAYS THAT IS STUPID.

11. Oh woah I just watched an episode of this for the first time today, what are teh chances O.o I lol'd ppretty damn hard <3 Is that Kronk's voice I heard?

13. So did I 8D

14. But those are his good qualities! 8D

16. Haruhi/Mori is awesome, so's Kyoya/Tamaki. Your friends need sum betch-slappin'

JET IS ACTUALLY THAT ONE DEAD GUY AND ALSO ZUKOS MOM.

3. Don't know the fandom, can't relate, but I think your secret is pretty.

10. How does seeing your first anime on Adult Swim/Toonami/YTV/some other mainstream channel somehow make you a less worthy fan? You're not an idiot 'cause you saw it on TV first instead of going out of your way to buy or rent the series. I hate this mindset. Elitist much?

12. WHAT DOES THIS SAY. I think I sympathize with you a little bit but I'm not sure if I do at all mostly because I can't read your secret. Ugh colours.

16. Mori/Haruhi ftw. =]

[identity profile] kurachu.livejournal.com 2007-08-17 11:17 pm (UTC)(link)
4. That show is so dumb. I hate it yet love it at the same time.

11. LOLOL YES I LOVE THAT SHOW SO MUCH.

Two Venture Brothers secrets, in one day! Oh, what a wonderful day.

Parthenon has all the qualities of being a superhero down pat. I mean, during the courier mission he immediately helped that woman look for her daughter. And when their car had been jacked? He did the right thing by helping the package man. Not to mention while being in such a tight spot with deciding who got that second phone-call he was good about it and did what he thought was the right decision. ...plus omfg when he was talking to his boyfriend on the phone I was wibbling. So. Sugary. Sweet.

And Hyper-Strike is badass though I wish Stan had let him keep his giant scarf D:. confident and totally full of energy, he's always ready to lead. Like during the amusement park mission, he and Diffuser totally took charge. Plus he's very warm, funny and easy-going, it seems. Once he sets his mind to it he gets the job done.

Both he and Parthenon are so awesome WHY cAN'T STAN PICK BOTH? D:

13. I didn't think it was funny regardless lulz. The entire [livejournal.com profile] efw community just isn't my cup of tea. At one point you have to wonder exactly how witty/intellectual/"above it all" can you seem when everyone around you is so exasperated about something you're all making fun of because it's supposed to be trivial in the first place.

I mean, what?

16. YES. FUCK YES! Kyouya/Tamaki 4 life :) And Mori/Haruhi pwns Tamaki/Haruhi, sry guyz.

Re: 4

[identity profile] mechamummy.livejournal.com 2007-08-17 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, yeah, the guy couldn't have won but he was hysterical and he kind of got hosed a bit since despite not going on the rollercoaster he was still helpful at the very least. All three of the people you mentioned are the ones who are still in that I like (I kind of loved Mindset just because what the fuck dude, it's SPELLING), especially Parthenon because he didn't get dragged into that high school crap with the SECRET MEETING about Mitzvah.

And Hygena is like Fat Momma for me; yeah, she seems nice and she's competent and all, but the gimmick just kills it for me.

Re: sixteen~

[identity profile] twelve.livejournal.com 2007-08-17 11:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Agreed agreed agreed!

I was a little confused by this secret. There seems to be this implication in it that Tamaki/Haruhi has no chemistry, and when people say that, it makes me want to cry big giant crocodile tears of doom. D: Or, I don't know, maybe I'm assuming things and this person just means a different type of chemistry? Like, less "in your face!" and more subtext-y? MOAR CLARIFICATION PLZ, SECRET 16. :(

(And I thought I was the only one who wasn't smitten with the twins.)

Re: 4

[identity profile] byewonderland.livejournal.com 2007-08-17 11:24 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't know but Mindset just really bothered me. I know he meant well and all, but still his ego was just a bit too much for me. Mitzvah and Ms Limelight were the ones that I definitely knew weren't going to win along with Mindset and braid. I was sad to Basura go because her comic cover was just jaw-dropping gorgeous.

Yah, basically.

I know. He is such a fabulous character~.
