OK this is something that happens to me, from time to time, and I know it's not a commom issue. I think the best way to put it is: Did you ever fell in love with an anime char? I don't think that's the best term, like I said, I rather use the expression "obsessed" (or maybe not even this is a good word, most ppl find it's too strong). Their gestures, their behaviour, their personality, or maybe just the appearance, if you find the char extremely beautiful; it all counts. A long time ago I did the same topic on another forum and didn't get much response. Maybe obsessing (or really really really liking them) about anime chars it's not that normal, hehe. So, I'll start. I don't quite remember very much, but I'll say a few I was "apparently obsessed with": Ayanami Rei, Nagato Yuki, Tsukamoto Yakumo. Uchiha Itachi too, probably. I think Ferio from MKR too. I really like him. My current obsession is Lelouch. I have never watched a single Code Geass episode, but from the first pic I've seen of him.. I went "ohmy.. this guy probably is the coolest ever". Finally I will begin to watch the series tomorrow, and I can't wait~~! So. Am I the only disturbed one here? |

It's totally normally to get something like a crush on anime characters, I think. Hell, I've had crushes on characters in books before. ^.^;; Even though they're made up, you can still admire and sort of "fall in love" with a characters personality -- after it, it's just representative of what you like in real life. As far anime crushes... I'd definitely have to say Satou Sei from MariMite, Nagato Yuki and Kyon from Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, Yuuichi and Mai from Kanon '06 (suddenly I feel a bit redundant >.>), Haruhi from Ouran Highschool Host Club, and porbably Mireille from Noir. I wouldn't say I have a crush on them, but Balsa and Revy are to characters that I sort of wish I could be like in some ways. Revy is MESSED UP but damn it would rock to be that cool, and Balsa is... well just plain awesome. ^.^;; Some others too, but I'd rather not babble on forever :-p |

I'm sure there are lots of folks that fit into this topic, but maybe some are shy or just would not admit. xD |

i have plenty of anime character obsessions...i don't know if you would call it love, but it really is an "unhealthy" obsession kind of thing...like i think about the characters a lot... morita shinobu was my first anime character obsession...he's just so awesome and hilarious...he was the first character to consistently make me laugh...noda megumi is also another one...she's like the female version of morita (i would seriously propose to her in a heartbeat if she was real)...rider from fsn is also a good example...she's just way too sexy for me not to obsess over her... and right now i have an unhealthy obsession over yunoki from la corda...he's my role model...lol... |

Anamnesis said: nihil said: so. am i the only disturbed one here? Finally! I am not alone! >___< I'm always obsessed with at least 1 anime/videogame character. My first obsession was (and STILL is) Trunks from Dragon Ball Z. I watched Dragon Ball Z for the first time when I was 8 years world and since the first time I saw Trunks, I've been obsessed with him. When Dragon Ball Z was popular in my school, I actually threatened other girls that said they liked Trunks XD (And it worked. They never said his name again...at least not around me). . Omg me too!when i was about 11 i was madly in love with Trunks! i had pictures of trunks all over my room! and believe it or not my sister fancied Piccolo! XDD Right now I'm obsessed with Fay D. Flourite. I liked him in the anime but in the manga he has turned out to be one of the most screwed up characters ever. He's so dark, mysterious and deeply troubled that if a psychiatrist listened to some of his issues he would commit suicide immediately afterwards. And that's why I love him. Tsubasa nowadays is like an anime version of a David Lynch movie. I check everyday to see if a new chapter has been uploaded...*sigh* i'm a sad person, i know. Other characters I love are Yuuko from xxxholic (obvious isn't it), Shin and Osaki Nana from Nana, Pino and Re-l from Ergo Proxy, Nodame from Nodame Cantabile (oh she's so insane), Gaara, Yoruichi and lat but not least , Sunako from YNSH. Specially in [her cool moments the_pillows said: and right now i have an unhealthy obsession over yunoki from la corda...he's my role model...lol... so do you go around shouting at , blackmailing and sexually harassing young girls? interesting...XD |

I would not say I obsess over anime characters, but I guess there are those that I like or admire especially much, Alucard and Saya being good examples. Mostly these tend to be strong, often tragic heroes or heroines...Edmond Dant�s, Ergo Proxy, Lelouch Lamperouge, Teresa, Spike Spiegel... And then there are those I like mostly because they are cute, like Tessa and Yakumo... But I think obsession is a too strong word for me... ... And you are not alone Yuuko, I check every day for new Hellsing chapters...Which is kind of pointless really...Considering the mangaka is such a slow ass -___- |

Interesting topic :) Got me thinking - it seems like I always fall for 'minor' characters, with a couple of exceptions (Sakura from CCS of course being one and also Ayukawa Madoka from KOR).... Ururu from Bleach, Yomi from Azumanga Daioh, Lulu from Blood+, Chika from Ai Yori Aoshi...just to name a few. Also, I think I am in love with Sakura Tange's voice (seiyuu for Kinomoto Sakura, also did Maico in Android Ana Maico 2010) XD Any character she does is instant <3 for me. |

If become obsessed pretty often. Asuka from NGE was probably the first one. That died down, though. But at the moment it's Juri from Utena, Silvana from Noir, and Haruhi Suzumiya. |

I'm like the Queen of anime character Obsessions. You should see me on the other forum I go too. I got my own obsession thread in the Spam forum. "Oh no, Jeann has another obsession" they would say. Then I would change my name in honor of that new obsession. And I'm not obsessed with just guy characters, but girls too. My biggest one is Light Yagami from Death Note. I'll post a complete list later. *devilish fangirl grin* |

Well, technically of course you can fall in love with an anime character: it has a human voice, a physical appearance and it's own character. And that's all you need to love somebody, right? I really loved Sohma Kisa once. Ooh, could have just marry her! ^.^ |

hmm... character obsessions, can't say it hasn't happened to me. Usually when I can't get over a plot development at the end of a series. Yakumo Tsukamoto - School Rumble Near the end of second season when she realizes that she likes Harima Kenji but gives him up for her sister's happiness even though her sister doesn't like him. Also because the only guy she likes is the one that doesn't like her back. Saber - Fate/Stay Night In the anime, when she dies at the tree I thought it was heartfelt but I really wanted her to end up with Shirou Emiya and live happily ever after! Oh God that bugged that crap out of me because it was a such a good ending anyways. It felt even worse when I read up on F/SN and found out Shirou's fate. Kaoru Kaimya - Rurouni Kenshin: Seisouhen At the end when Kaoru fully devotes herself to Kenshin and contracts leprosy from him and then they die together when he returns home again. Thats something you'll only find in a story but totally blew me away and overshadowed Tomoe's sacrifice entirely. Teletha "Tessa" Testarossa (Special Case)- Full Metal Panic! I didn't get obsessed with her because of some tragedy in the series but because she stood out to me against all other archetypes. As a military commander she is the cliche good strategist but with some nervous hair playing and she pulls strings with a little abuse of power to get more time with Sousuke. As the High School aged girl, she is the clumsy pretty girl makes for good slapstick but what I think stuck out the most was that she was much more open about her crush on Sousuke than the usual anime school girl. I think the only one who doesn't know is Sousuke. I love the scenes that include her or Kurz Weber but she got extra points because of the drama in the second season and her OVA was hilarious. |

Character obsession huh.. Most of the time, I don't have favourite characters when I'm watching anime because I don't feel any attachment to them, I mean it's just a story right. But one day, when I start looking for pictures of some characters (this may seem perfectly normal for some of you but practically unheard of from me), that's when I know that these characters have affected me. It's like I'm intrigued by their personality. Of course, naturally these characters become my favourite characters =P Zoro from One Piece. I like his no-nonsense but laid back attitude, inhuman strength, determination and his lack of a sense of direction is just cute. I also have a thing for swordsman. XP Killua from HxH. He's 12 years old and so damn cute especially in neko form. But his dark side is really interesting and to watch him embracing friendship is just beautiful. =) Robin from Witch Hunter Robin. She's like a confused teenager whom I can relate to. Being independent, strong, trusting others and trying to understand the changes and her perspection on life. Saya from Blood+. She accepts her destiny and strives to make up for her mistakes. Doesn't want anyone to get hurt and has suffered a lot. I guess I like her resilience and sense of justice. But I must say I kinda find black haired boys cute. I dunno what's the deal with it. Byakuya & Hagi with their long black hair. Hei & Naru with their short black hair. |
