Re: Introduction Thread
i think it's only appropriate for my first post to be my introduction, so here goes...
well, i'm 28 and have lived in chicago for about a year and a half now. i actually grew up in indiana, but decided to move to the city after i was done with school basically just to see what it was like. i love it so far. as you can see, i'm on the older side of this community, but have probably gotten into anime and manga later than most of you. i started watching anime about 2-3 years ago and stumbled onto manga online at the beginning of this year. once i got started, i couldn't believe what i had been missing out on! i tend to like mostly shonen titles so far (naruto and bleach are my faves). i finally decided to tackle reading one piece (i'm on chapter 400, so i'm almost done) and it took me quite a while to really get into the story, but now i'm loving it.
ok, what else? i'm really laid-back. that's probably why my favorite characters tend to be kind of the same way (shikamaru and kakashi from naruto and urahara from bleach). my dislikes include olives, raw onions, and physics and my likes include cult comedy, nerdy chemistry stuff, going out for a cold beer with my friends, and naps on rainy days (sooo relaxing).
i'm going to try and stop lurking and start participating from now on, so i hope to chat with you all in the near future!
