I've been in the anime game since age 3; As I grew up I became exposed to more animes. I began with Sailor Moon and that captured me so heavily that I owned 4 VHS tapes that I begged to get. I later discovered Pokemon around age 6. I played Hey You Pikachu on my friend's nintendo 64 and I collected the cards. At that age I also repeatedly watch My Neighbor Tortoro and Kiki's Delivery Service. Around age 8 I found Princess Mononoke which exposed me to the darker sides of anime and gave me a good glimpse of how big the anime world was. For age 10 I found AMVs of sailor moon and found sailor moon books. In one of the sailor moon books was a lovely page advertising Tokyo Mew Mew by the same creator. From there I was on a hunt. At 12 I found Inuyasha late at night on Adult Swim. I saw the uniform and a man with a crescent moon on his head and was glued from the idea it might be like Sailor Moon. Hence, I was wrong. Then one day my school had a book fair, guess what I found and bought? Yes my first manga; Tokyo Mew Mew A La Mode. Once at 13 I was obsessed with Inuyasha and Naruto. But the Naruto thing didn't stick too much. This is when I found a wiser otaku who was kinda weaboo. She taught me about cosplay, new animes like Haruhi Suzumiya and Lucky Star. At 14 I cosplayed the first time as Kagome from Inuyasha. Then at 15, I went to my first con Anime Milwaukee, I was so excited I didn't sleep. I cosplayed as L and brought a mere $75 with me. I made it to age 16, My knowledge has expanded. My cosplays improved. I obsessively watched whatever I could get my teenage hands on. My peers had those teen hormones running wild and I stayed home watching anime. This is were I met my friend Max whom brought me to my 2nd year at Anime Milwaukee. This time I was Yuki Nagato and I had this outfit tailored. Age 17 I got a boyfriend, watched anime with him all the time and he was only slightly into anime. Age 18 Attended 2 conventions and totally bought my first figures. I am now a con vet and a refined weeb. my car has kawaii peekers and my manga collection is 500+, Im a full weeb trash.
