Konnichiwa~! Just wondering...any manga/anime fans out there? If so, what are some of your favs? >_<

Um, I'd be careful with calling oneself an Otaku... While it is certainly acceptable to some level in the US to acknowledge your geek pride or otherwise, it most definitely would be a bit of a bigger issue while in Japan.

Thanks for the information...but, ummm....I'm not in Japan. Oh, and I wasn't trying to offend anyone! Nothing bad was meant by it. Though if I ever happen to be in Japan I'll remember what you said ^ _ ^

Your not going to offend anyone by calling yourself an Otaku. Although, personally I would avoid making that association myself, but you are certainly free to do as you please.

デレクさんは生きている！さいきん、ポストしなかったね？ アニメは「うみねこのなく頃に」と「ひぐらしのなく頃に」と「黒執事」と「狼と香辛料」と「コードギアス」が好き。漫画は　「ハヤテのごとく」と「彼岸花のさく夜に」が好きですよ。いろいろな漫画とアニメを見たことがない。学校はなかなか難しいですから、時間がない。 I like Umineko no Naku Koro ni, Higurashi no Naku Koro ni, Kuroshitsuji, Spice and Wolf, and Code Geass in terms of anime, and Hayate no Gotoku and Higanbana no Saku Yoru ni for manga.

I'm 100% an otaku and cosplayer! and proud of it!! i like so many anime's; claymore, fullmetal alchemist, higurashi series, inuyasha, elfen lied, witchblade, sailor moon (classic), code geass, naruto, fate stay night, and list goes on, i just can't remember all names -_-

While I do fancy Anime and Manga, I also enjoy watching Kamen Rider.

My favorite mangas are shoujo, slice-of-life, and comedy. Yotsuba&! is my favorite :3

I use Crunchyroll. It's a website that has Live action nihongo television and anime. subscriptions are pretty cheap. $7 a month for half (either anime or live action drama's at blue ray quality and no commercials) or $15 a month full. I watch so much of it that when i come here to study a bit, i find the conversions much slower then i am use to hearing them.
