I was actually aware of it for quite a while and would mainly visit to read up on the reviews on Anime and Manga, so that I could see what to watch or read next.
So, props to all the reviewers out there!
Your insights have proved to be quite effective for me and have not been ashamed of what I've viewed...so far. 
I have been interested in art for most of my life. Especially the Japanese side of it. And have even started a small comic a while back, based on the Manga styles (tho, I have not done updated it in a while, either :p).
I will get back into my comic, once I feel that I have improved on my story-telling or once I have a real plot.
But of course, I will continue to design characters, so u might see a few pics of them from time to time. I hope that u will enjoy them.
My recent artistic engagements have been involved with painting. As of now, I am taking a landscape painting class. I have been also observing the works of Claude Monet, Albert Marquet, and (soon, hopefully
) Cezanne.
I have also been interested in and making some symbolic works.
(I would be showing a lot of this stuff if it were not for the file size limit!
)
I have even started learning "Nihongo" (Japanese) as of last year. I'm using a self-learning program and so far, no complaints. Although, I have not been meeting my summer resolution of semi-daily learning...
But once my painting class ends this week, I will get right back on track.
The game I am currently playing is Tales of Symphonia for Gamecube (I play it on the Wii tho),
and the manga I am currently reading are Rurouni Kenshin and Fullmetal Alchemist. (I was reading One Pound Gospel from Rumiko Takahashi, but Volume 2 is hard to come by for me.)
As for anime, I was watching Fullmetal Alchemist as well. I left off at Volume 9, I think. It's been a while since I watched it. (The library system does not have any later volumes, so I should look at Netflix...)
In my academic path, I have now been attending a community college for a couple of semesters. I've decided to major in the Arts, and hopefully obtain an A.A., either in Arts (Fine) or in Multimedia-3D Animation (the A.A. decision is still a bit rusty), and even transfer to a four-year university.
Only through time and prayer, shall I see what God's plan is for me. Hopefully, it is an artistic career.
Well, for my first day here, it has definitely been fun! I hope to make friends here and be part of this community for a long time to come!
I will keep you in my prayers and I hope that you will keep me in yours.
Keep the Peace!
