what are you more a fan of? (at the moment)

Postby Tenshi no Ai » Wed Jan 31, 2007 7:22 pm

Yet another randomish poll I'm making...

Well, just got thinking on how I'm always changing what I'm more into, in the "Japanesey world": anime, manga, or games. Seems like I'm always into one in specific at a time, occasionally 2 (but most of the time since I'm preoccupied with one, don't have time for the others^^)

So basically, which would you more concider yourself a fan of at the moment? For me right now, been watching more anime since I haven't had too much of a chance during the holidays, but I still say I've been alot more into games. Occasionally I get into a manga mood though, but not right now. Maybe when I spend my gift card at Chapters I'll be back into manga for a little bit^^

Umm...hmmm. Well, I don't quite know! XD I mean, I've been trying to read through Rurouni Kenshin a second time (even though I've read the earlier volumes more than once), so I guess you could say I've been reading lots of manga...but then again, I'm still following a number of anime series. XD And I'm still quite addicted to FFXII...so I really don't know which one to vote for! XD

Anime! Reason: Not much time for games these days, and not much space for manga collections. Netflix is my best friend...well, most of the time. :lol:

At the moment, I'm definitely most into games. Out of the three, I would say that generally I'm most into games, then manga, then anime. But there are definitely times when I get really into manga or anime for a while. And it's not just one series at a time. I'll get into a spurt where there are a bunch of different manga that I want to read, then I'll have a spurt where I want to see a bunch of different anime. Right now I'm getting into a bunch of classic video games that I missed before I started getting into gaming.

Games, I guess. I've been watching some anime, but I feel like playing games a lot more than I feel like watching anime. Been playing a lot of Gundam Vs. Zeta Gundam, Hajime no Ippo: All Stars, and am learning how to play Narutimate Hero 3...

I spend more of my free time with gaming.

Anime is a more passive interest for me, I will generally buy one or two series' on DVD a year, but I don't spend much on the hobby. In several days I'll be snagging the Remastered DBZ Season 1 boxset. :thumb:

As for manga, I work at a bookstore, so I get to read it for about an hour most days of the week.

Anime, as I'm looking into a lot of series right now, while I'm rather stagnant on the Manga front.

Anime for me atm. But I'm including TV shows in that category a bit because I treat it all the same. Heroes/House/Naruto/Bleach are my weekly shows I watch. Also I downloaded Card Captor Sakura and watching that. I'm too male to fully enjoy it I'm sure, but I can take it in small doses, lol.

Anime watched: Naruto, Bleach, One Piece, Claymore, Lucky Star, Full Metal Alchemist, Trigun, Elfen Lied, Card Captor Sakura, FLCL, Death Note, Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, Mai Hime, Mai Otome. <3 them all

I'm almost always more into manga because I can borrow it for free from my library... but they don't stock anime really, and I'm too cheap (read:poor) to buy it or rent it...

i'd say that i'm more into manga right now. i've really been reading Berserk lately, and my main source of anime has been down lately so yeah...as for video games, either i'm too lazy to go over to my GC or PS2 and take the time to turn it on and wait for it to load, or i'm just not in the mood for video games right now...

"Believers do not pray with the view of informing God about things unknown to Him, or of exciting Him to do His duty, or of urging Him as though He were reluctant. On the contrary, they pray in order that they may arouse themselves to seek Him, that they may exercise their faith in meditating on His promises, that they may relieve themselves from their anxieties by pouring them into His bosom; in a word, that they may declare that from Him alone they hope and expect, both for themselves and for others, all good things."

I'd say I'm more into manga, and probably always will be. I'm too much of a bookworm and art geek to be otherwise. Though I have been watching a couple anime series through rentals and fansubs.

Games are pretty much out of the question for me... I started playing a PC game over break, but haven't had time to finish it. My boyfriend has been trying to get me into gaming, but I have no capability what-so-ever when it comes to using an XBox 360 controler. :P

Manga, far and away. :3 I don't have the patience to find fansubs, no place to buy DVDs, and no gaming consoles anyway.

Manga at the moment. I do have the tenancy to bounce around whenever something new grabs my attention. The last Japanese entertainment to grab my attention was D. Gray-man. Thus, my attentions moved toward manga.
