Anime... Anime saved my life. I was in a very bad place. I hated the person I saw in the mirror and I still kind of do. I hated that person because everyone else seemed to do hate her. But then I was sitting in art class (a subject in school that I still hate to this day) and I was sitting next to a boy who had pictures of Naruto, Bleach, One Piece in his work book and after he told me what they were, I ended up fancying him a little. I thought that I could get closer to him by watching Naruto, something that he seemed to really like. I was wrong and he rejected me but I'm kind of glad that I had a crush for him because it got me into a series that had characters who I would have walked into a hail of bullets for because I knew that if I met them, they would have done the same for me because we had all been in the same boat.

More specifically, Naruto, Gaara, Sakura and Itachi. If you've watched/read Naruto, you'll understand what I'm saying.

Naruto was hated by everyone who met him for reasons that he had no knowledge of. He grew up without parents and had to be self sufficient in every way. But the one thing that he wanted was that people would never ignore him because in his eyes, that took away any worth he had and that was something that he was not going to allow. He made it his mission that people would take notice of him and never forget him, that he was going to leave his mark on the world. How? By doing the impossible and befriending the monsters, the deadlasts, the outcasts, the weak, the traitors, the abandoned, the lost and even the creature that lived inside of him and had caused every problem in his life to begin with.

Gaara had loved hurting people and that was something that I could relate to because I wanted to hurt those who ignored me and a part of me still does but I hated myself for enjoying how people suffered. But then I watched him get his life changed by a boy who was always considered to be the king of losers. It told me that I wasn't alone in suffering like Gaara had.

Sakura had always been seen as weak but after being spurred on, she could smash boulders, save lives and was easily the physically and mentally strongest on her team. Her mental strength never wavered and the things that she went through were things that most people can't dream of getting out of alive.

Itachi is my favourite but surprisingly, I've probably gotten the least from him. But just like him, I would have given up my everything to protect my family and the people I loved.

After I started getting ahead in Naruto, another boy in my maths class pointed me towards Death Note and it sorted of exploded from there. From Death Note came Ouran, then Vampire Knight and so on to Hetalia, Hellsing Ultimate and Attack On Titan. What else came was the revival of my childhood love of Sailormoon, Cardcaptors, Digimon, Pokemon, Flint the Time Detective, One Piece and every other piece that I could get my hands on from the hysterically ridiculous and the philosopical rambling.

I could name a character from each of the series' that I've watched and say happily that they are my favourite because they showed me something. That being different is never a bad thing and can lead to the creation of some of the best (and worst) people that you will ever know and that those who are different will always be strong, even when they are by themselves but believe when I say that when we are together, you never want to mess with us.
