Anime watcher, manga nerd, video game freak
Those are three times that are usually ascribed to me once someone's talked to me, so I might as well get that out of the way now. Each of those things, however, brought me here, so it can't really be a bad thing, I guess.

I've watched some form of anime since I was rather small, though the access to it has waned on and off over the years due to a variety of factors. The very first I got to watch in entirety is actually my avatar icon. Kudos to those who can guess it. My tastes in anime vary, from Mushi-shi to Captain Harlock and anything from Hayao Miyazaki, though shōnen grabs my attention more often than not.

In the earlier part of the 2000s, a lot of my online time was taken by MORPGS, in particular Final Fantasy XI. Why is this important? An online acquaintance introduced me to Bleach in the summer of 2005. Given that Adult Swim (or anyone else that matter that I had realized) was carrying the anime in a format I could see, I delved into the manga first, and found myself pleasantly surprised. It was one of the first shōnen I'd read in a while that didn't hit the pitfalls many series around that time did; the actual relationships between the characters didn't degenerate into a sappy mess, the action was there rather than a lack thereof,  and there's been enough ambiguity (though I'm not honestly sure if Kubo meant to do it that way or not), to keep interest.

While I wish I could say that for the anime series as well (oh goodness, the fillers), Bleach is one of those few series I can say I watched from beginning to end, and I'm glad that it ended. Some studios do fillers semi-decently. Some don't. Given my interest waned in the anime during filler periods, I'm going to say semi-decent wasn't Studio Pierrot’s forte.

Regardless, I will most likely be found on Bleach Answers than here other than minor editing. I'm currently helping a colleague in getting a book ready for submission to a few writing agencies, and it takes up the brunt of my writing time. Maybe on my next major edit, I'll get to favorite characters, but I can at least say right now very few fall under the 'hated' list, another rarity.
