I am a 17 year old Otaku, i have loved anime and manga since i was quie young, and the thing that got me into it was Pocket Monsters!!! I then went from there, and have now seen many animes and read many a manga. My favourite Manga has to be Naruto and my favourite Anime is also Naruto very closely followed by Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu. I love drawing and once again i have done from a very young age. I aim to become a character designer one day and have my character put into a computer game. Other hobies of mine are, of course, playing computer games (Zelda is my favourite series), playing sports that dont involve excessive amounts of running (basketball, hockey, golf, pool etc), i also like taking things apart, siting in high places (like on the roof of a house), and i like thinking (sitting on a roof helps me think)...Finally i love gadgets, if there is a random gadget that does something cool that is absolutely useless, ill get it anyway just because its cool ^^
Infact, its gadgets that initially got me interested in Japan, way before manga and anime and even computer games. From a very young age i used to watch "Tomorrows World" and they used to take frequent visits to Japan, and every time they did, it made me want to go there and see if for myself, so you see, my interest in Japan has been practically life-long, and although only a few are listed above, i have many more interests in Japan.
