Anime & Manga

Like many 90's kids, I first got into anime and manga via Sailor Moon. Since then, I've enjoyed a wide variety of series, and I'm always looking for something new to enjoy.

show me your brave heart

Digimon Adventure | since 8 March 2020 | 27 fans

I honestly don't know where I'd be without Digimon. It was the first series where I really got into the online fandom, as small as it was in the late '90s. It's an incredibly nostalgic series for me, and one that's held up really well over the years.

wholehearted

Fullmetal Alchemist - Alphonse Elric | since 5 July 2019 | 1779 fans

Alphonse Elric is a good good boy who can do no wrong. I don't make the rules. Really, how can you not love this kid? As the kind and patient half of the Elric brothers, Alphonse offers some much-needed stability to the duo, and more importantly a whole lot of heart. Also: cats. All the cats.

Lost Heaven

Fullmetal Alchemist - Conqueror of Shamballa | since 3 October 2014 | 9 fans

My love of this film is almost entirely based in nostalgia, but hey, isn't that just how it goes sometimes? Conqueror of Shamballa is a wonderful conclusion to the first Fullmetal Alchemist anime (which I also really love, because I like adaptations), and every couple of years I go back and rewatch it and get really emotional.

brotherhood

Fullmetal Alchemist - Edward and Alphonse | since 4 April 2022 | 11 fans

No matter how many times I revisit Fullmetal Alchemist, my favorite thing continues to be the relationship between Ed and Al. They're the backbone of the entire series, and it simply wouldn't be the same without them. I love these kids and everything they go through, together and apart.

icarus flew

Fullmetal Alchemist - Edward Elric | since 31 March 2019 | 23 fans

Ed! Fullmetal Alchemist has been one of my favorite series since I was a kid, and this loudmouth is a big part of why. No matter what happens, Ed never gives up, and his enduring devotion to his brother and his friends has always inspired me.

make it home

Monster | since 21 May 2017 | 37 fans

I knew that Monster was going to be one of my favorite series soon after I started watching it. Honestly, it's like it was tailor-made for my tastes: it's a psychological thriller with a tightly written plot, an incredibly engaging villain, and a great cast of characters. What more could I ask for?

Determination

Psycho-Pass - Tsunemori Akane | since 1 January 2018 | 8 fans

Though Akane stuck out to me from the very first episode, I never could have imagined how much I'd grow to love her character over the course of the series. She undergoes a lot of growth in the first season, and by its end she'd easily become one of my favorite female leads — a feeling that only solidified when I watched the second season and the movie. Psycho-Pass would have appealed to me on the basis of its premise alone, but Akane's what really made it stick.

Swift Death to Evil

Rurouni Kenshin - Saitou Hajime | since 13 November 2016 | 278 fans

Saitou has been my favorite character in Rurouni Kenshin ever since he first showed up in the series, and in all these years since that hasn't changed a bit. Every time I rewatch or reread the series, I can't wait to get to the parts with Saitou in it. He's a fascinating character, and though his sense of justice is in direct contrast to Kenshin's, it's no less interesting to watch.

there is no such thing as everyone

Tokyo Babylon | since 25 March 2016 | 20 fans

Tokyo Babylon is my favorite series by CLAMP, no contest. While the slowly building tale between Seishirou and Subaru is a major focus, the thing that keeps me coming back is the backdrop of Tokyo itself, and the way this story makes it breathe. It's a lonely, heartbreaking story, but that's what makes it so memorable.

death wish

Tokyo Babylon/X - Seishirou and/vs. Subaru | since 3 August 2014 | 26 fans

I've been fascinated with the dynamic between Seishirou and Subaru since I first read Tokyo Babylon in 2009. They're the definition of the idea that love can be the worst thing to ever happen to someone, something that can destroy you from the inside out. Theirs is a fascinating tale, and I've been drawn to it for years. This site has been a fansite since 2010; in August 2014 I revamped and renamed it, and it was expanded to cover them in fanlisting form as well.

searching for you

Your Name | since 19 May 2024 | 14 fans

I was lucky enough to see this film in theaters when it came out, and I'll be totally honest: I cried. This was absolutely everything I ever wanted from a Makoto Shinkai film: beautiful but also heart-rending. Yeah, the plot is ridiculous, but I loved it anyway. Hands down one of my favorite films of all time.
