Back in early 2005, I wrote a “condensed” autobiography of how I became an anime fan. It detailed all the stages I went through, starting from when I was a little kid watching cartoons, to creating my own anime web site and watching all kinds of series. I recently reread this old work of mine, and I have to say that not only is it outdated, my writing skills back then kind of sucked. Now, almost five years later, after watching much more anime and graduating college, I figured it’s finally time to rewrite my anime autobiography…

Nearing the halfway mark on the countdown of my 100 favorite anime characters, here are characters 60 to 51. Still second guessing myself a bit but that will get better as I approach the final half of the list…
My 100 favorite anime characters (70 – 61)
Continuing the countdown of my 100 favorite anime characters in commemoration of my ten years as a fan, here are characters 70 to 61. As I’m doing these lists, I still find myself second guessing on the order, even after I’ve completed them. I could probably spend a long time contemplating how much I like some of these characters more than others, but I have to decide on an order eventually…
