Rurouni Kenshin
everything Gundum, though Wing was my favorite followed by 8th MS Team
Yu Yu Hakusho
Noir
Big O


Sure I can think of more later.

so far the only gundams i've watched are 00, seed, and seed destiny. all were good. my bf said others were even better than that.

oh and Drole, whether or not you are into vampires or not (i'm neutral), Blood+ is great too.

Problem with seed is that it is very similar to MS Gundam, at least to me. Then again I have only seen a handful of episodes.

oh another great one though horrible dub?

Outlaw Star

I performed an amusing rant on Twilight to one of my friends. I read the first 3 books because I wanted to know what everyone was going on about and it was mostly because they were such fast reads that I got that far. I made it to the blackout sex in book four before I quit and looked up the rest online.

Oh man I hate those books for so much that sometimes I forget about the absolute desecration of vampire lore within.

DaemonSeid 06-23-2010 04:07 PM

Sigh....I will say it again...Anne Rice would clean up right now.

ms_gwyn 06-23-2010 04:50 PM

I love vampires....I know that everyone is on about Laurel K. Hamilton as well...but hey I enjoy the series and this is my 2nd reading of the books, since I picked it up in April...I've had the first 5 of the books for about 3 years now, but finally decided to read the series...

Also...I am one of those people who *never* put down books, I just plow through them, even if I have them.....

I *HATED* Interview with the Vampire and had about 50 pages or less to go and I put it down and have no desire to ever pick it up again...this was about 15 years ago....

Oh...

I used to be a pure Nintendo person at heart...Guitar Hero changed that and bought a PS2 for $130, plus GH...

Then I got obsesses with the Xbox, I think because of netflix....so that is my current system...

It kills me that I've not gone back to Nintendo....but I have said that if they come out with a new DK series...yea, I will buy a Wii, 'cause I was going to get it before Netflix came to Xbox...

I really like RPGs and racing games....NO FPS, it is every difficult for me to play Fallout because of that component...but I got over it fast :D

What about dollhouses, prehistoric life, or astronomy? Does that count? :(

ms_gwyn 06-23-2010 05:21 PM

Go go Donkey Kong!
They are finally putting out decent info on Gran Turismo 5 for the PS3.
RPGs...I love em. Somewhere I got lost because people are separating them into JRPG (Japan) and WRPGs(made in the states). I hate it...I don't really think I'll like the WRPGs seeing that I'm a Final Fantasy fan to the core.
