About Me

I am a 22 year old otaku. I used to live in the state of Oregon, in a small coastal town called Florence, but recently moved to Silverlake, Washington.
My interests include Anime, Manga, Video Games, Professional Wrestling, Computers, Books, The Internet, Music, and much much more.
I have a lot of favorite anime and manga. The one I love most is Hokuto no Ken (Fist of The North Star). When talking about favorites, I normally leave that one out, as I love it as a classic anime, and most of my other favorites are newer. My favorite anime of the newer stuff is Fullmetal Alchemist. I also really like Naruto, One Piece, Bleach, and more.
When it comes to video games, I love racing games and rpgs. My favorite racing games are the Need For Speed and Burnout series', and for rpgs, I like the Final Fantasy series, the .hack games, the Kingdom Hearts series, and many more. I'm also a huge fan of the Halo and Halo 2, and am looking forward to Halo 3.
As for professional wrestling, my favorite wrestler is The Undertaker. I also like Mick Foley, AJ Styles, and more.
In regards to books, I read quite often. I love the Harry Potter series, aswell as The Chronicles of Narnia. Among my favorite books is The Art of War by Sun Tzu.
Music is a great passion of mine, and my favorite band is Metallica. They are the lords of rock, and Fade To Black is a modern masterpiece of musical composition, aswell as my favorite song. Aside from Metallica, I also like Linkin Park and a independent band out of Texas called Manditory, aswell as Japanese rockers UVERworld, Orange Range, and Gackt.
The internet has allowed me to meet some of the most interesting people in the world. I have also found some of the funniest, most interesting, and best websites on the net, aswell. I frequantly check out webcomics such as Penny Arcade, VG Cats, and Press Start To Play, aswell as browse various websites, such as The Anime News Network, Gendou's Anime Music, Fanfiction.net, Joystiq, 1UP, Gamefaqs, Bash.org, and more.
If I sound like an interesting person to you, or if we have common interests, please feel free to add me as a friend.
I often get asked about my large collection of Otaku stuff, so I have included links to various websites I use to manage my collection, these links are below.
