First of all, NO RNDM FRND RQST. Unless you have a "magical key" or give me some precious and shiny metals, I will reject it. Re-apply after I've made sure that I'll be talking to you in a month or two.
I'm a anime fan with an open mind who will watch a show from just about any genre. A Pittsburgh Steeler & Carolina Panthers fan. Own a Wii & PS3 and enjoy both very much. I like hip-hop, R&B & Jazz.
I currently and have for a long time been a member of Amazon.com and if you look up DonKangolJones you might be able to find my reviews and contributions to some of the material.
My personal motto when it comes to media is that if you really love it, you'll buy it. Goes for anime, movies and music. Though I refuse to buy anything at retail (AMZ.com), get the cheap box set if you can.
Outside of anime, my favorite shows are The Wire, The Office, Entourage, The Daily Show, Colbert Report, Attack of the Show, South Park, Code Monkeys, Sportscenter and the Boondocks (yes!).
Favorite websites are Amazon.com, Hulu.com, mahq.net, allhiphop.com, sankaku complex and g4tv.com. I suggest you check out the anime pulse podcast when you get the chance.

The one thing I like was seeing Erza pretty much scare Lucy away and then she fell down from exhaustion. I thought that was pretty cool--her not being the big bad we think she is. Plus, well, she's hot :P So of course I like her.
Fairy Tail is generic, but I watch it trying to get into the mindset of the audience it is geared towards. This is not shounen for grown ups, although that's a contradiction right there, but I like to think stuff like TTGL is shounen for adults.
I see myself tiring of FT too, but I am hoping it has an end in sight unlike our endless counterparts.
Ooh, those are some good arcs you listed right there, at least the two I know ;) The Chuunin exams were my absolute favourite episodes of the entire series. I can watch those again and again. Specifically from when they enter the forest till they make it to the actual building in the middle. The qualifiers and the actual exams were where I started losing interest. Basically while they were lost and wandering around that forest was great.
Ah, I will always have a soft spot for the Soul Society arc because it gave me my YoruSoi.
Since you're the only person I know watching Fairy Tail, what did you think of the latest episode?
I was starting to get a little "meh" about it (I dunno if it was the story or if it was me--I am a bit unwell at the moment), but then as soon as Erza started fighting, I was fangirling as hard as Lucy. To quote her:
"I think I'm in love!"
I think my issue right now is that I want to see more of Lucy and less of those other guys. Isn't it strange? Shounen rides on the side characters most of the time, and the cool male ones nearly 95% of the time. The stripper dude is a perfect of the "cool side character" that people tend to like other than the main character.
You know, every shounen has one of those. The main character is still uber popular, of course, but people veer towards these side guys:
Naruto --> Sasuke
Ichigo --> was Ishida, then Hitsugaya, and now it's who, that ugly guy with the Hollow thing on the side of his mouth??
Gintoki --> one of those dudes from the police force
Luffy --> Zoro (atm, I haven't seen Sanji and the rest of them)
Goku --> Vegeta (I guess? Rofl)
And so on and so on. So Fairy Tail has this naked fellow as the cool side character. Normally I like these, but maybe that I am grown up now, I can't be impressed with these any more. I'd rather see more of Lucy and her take on all of this.
But again, most people hate her, but most people are pimply 15 year old boys with cracking voices and sad attempts at facial hair who all completely miss the point of a character simply because they examine coolness factor over characterisation.
And marathon, marathon, marathon. It is better to take it all in one go. I watched like 8 episodes in the span of two days, and I only broke it apart because I need to sleep. It's easy to watch, so running through an episode is easy. Also, the new ED theme is the best ED theme this season.
Dude... like... I'm enjoying the second season of Queen's Blade. And not JUST as lulz... I actually like it. The fights, the story, the characters... it's like they all suddenly realised that this anime wasn't so much about flashing their asses and boobs, and they got down to ass-kicking. I don't know what to think now. It's like watching a taking dog.
haha well that's a clever way to name your fav character xD That way you get more than one xD Allen is my fav exocist too. Well he's tied with Lenalee - I love them both equally, it's hard for me to make a choice between them. Ohh Road xD She's interesting, I liked her too. I think for Noahs tho, my fav would either be Tyki or the Jasdevi twins. ANd LOL so I wasn't the only one who wasn't the biggest fan of Kanda either! XD I also thought he was a bit too uptight and just a jerk in general, but his attitude does make for some funny moments between him and Allen xD
Yep, of the series that I am currently watching right now, if I had to give them a rating this very moment, all of them would get either a 5, 6, or 7. (Except Kimi ni Todoke, I'd probably give it an 8 thus far lol XD ). I'm not as nice as I uased to be with my judgements about series I watch nowadays ;p
4 lbp at the moment im up to level where u have to get friida's husband back. which is annoying coz u noe the part at the end where theres those platforms? i got to the last one where u just go onto stable ground and then.......i fell!
