I have jumped onto the bandwagon that is the Friending Meme! Even though the theme is ARIA, you don't need to know the series to participate :D Everyone is welcome! XD
≈ Name ≈ Lisa ≈ Age ≈ 19 ≈ Gender ≈ female ≈ Zodiac sign(s) ≈ Aquarius & Rabbit (2 days later and it would've been Dragon) ≈ Fandoms ≈ Honey & Clover, Nana, Utena, Serial Experiments Lain, Kino no Tabi, Please Save My Earth, pretty much any series by Kaori Yuki (I adore her style and stories), Lady Oscar, Kare Kano, Marimite, Basara, Kagen no Tsuki, Haibane Renmei, Arjuna, and so on. Current obsession: Prince of Tennis. ≈ Favourite Activities ≈ Taking walks without having a destination & looking at pretty paintings (or art-related stuff in general). ♥ Drawing, painting, reading (Manga, dictionaries, and definitions xD), being lazy, pretending to be busy, sleeping. ≈ Favourite ARIA character(s)? ≈ Alice and Ai. :O ≈ How were you introduced to ARIA? ≈ Saw the first volume, liked the cover, liked the art style, bought it, loved it since the very first page~ ≈ Say one random thing about yourself! ≈ I fail at life.
≈ Name ≈Katri ≈ Age ≈20 ≈ Gender ≈Female ≈ Zodiac sign(s) ≈Taurus and Tiger ≈ Fandoms ≈Very many. Aria aside, I like all Arina Tanemura's works, Gravitation, Rocky Horror Picture Show, Kingdom Hearts, My Little Pony series from the 80s, Final Fantasy 7-9, Ico, Shadow of the Colossus and so on. Oh and Alphonse Mucha ( the art noveau artist), is much love. ≈ Favourite Activities ≈Dancing, roleplaying, drawing, chatting and surfing the internet. ≈ Favourite ARIA character(s)? ≈Athena Glory, Aria ≈ How were you introduced to ARIA? ≈I watched the first episode of Aria the Animation at the local anime club and after that fell in love with it. ≈ Say one random thing about yourself! ≈My favourite colours are green and orange :D
Mucha is love indeed. I'm not crazy about his work, but his style is very intriguing. :D
Someone who has played Ico! I've been thinking about buying it, though I am not sure. The concept seems very interesting and I've heard you don't have to complete tasks, but instead just wander around. Is that true? What got me interested in the game in the first place was the cover. My instant thought was: "Chirico... Nostalgia of the Infinite? *stares at it for a while* No, it looks a little different." *rambles* Do you know Chiricos works?
Yes it is :) Mucha can be kept as the father of art noveau. He might not have been the first to try that kind of a style but certainly one of the best artists around that area.
Well actually I found ICO pretty straightforward. Completing tasks is based on wandering but you have to take care of the girl, Yorda, above all. It´s a slow paced game and since you like Aria, I bet that you´d fall in love with the scenery and taking it easy- gamestyle. If you want the game to have and ending you must do the tasks :) The sequel, Colossus has that wandering part more: even the name of the main character is "Wanderer". Riding around with your horse just gives a warm feeling of freedom.
Chico? :O No I'm sorry but I don't know. Would you be so kind and enlighten me a little bit? :D

Eek, I just remembered that I didn't reply to your comment at my journal yet ;_; It's been like a month...XD; *dies*
But I was really glad that you like it! *o* Thanks for being so open-minded x3 ARIA is total love :D~ I love recommending it to people, because it really needs more fans \o/
Also: Hurray for Ouran, Hagaren, + CCS! CCS will always be the best CLAMP manga ever. XDD It was my #1 for quite a while too :D Literally all the characters in it are spectacular :D

What comment was that? [revives j00]
Ahh, but if only I could slap my DVD of ANIMATION into most everyone's faces I would be happy!
I think Fullmetal Alchemist should be overshadowed by Hagaren or, even better, HaganenoRenkinjutsushi‼ Just try saying that 10 times real fast~ CCS was definitely my first ever fandom, but not foremost, of course. Definitely the best mahou shoujo series out there. I don't think many anime really deviate from the original manga storyline, at least, not like CCS did (there were less cards in the manga, IIRC).
Hehe, I've never watched the anime of ARIA before. XD The manga is ownage enough already :D
Oh yes. I like calling it Hagaren MUCH more than FMA. ~_~ Japanese ftw~ XD
CCS wasn't my first ever fandom, but it was my craziest fandom. XD I was obsessed with it for like 9 years! *o* I also agree that it's the best mahou shoujo series ever. XD Even Sailormoon can't touch that! >:D
There are some anime that starts out by following the manga, but starts to branch off into its own ending/story. But that's only because the manga usually hasn't ended yet. XD The CCS anime adaptation was pretty dang good, but still, the manga still pwns the anime, IMO. x3

Hayao Miyazaki~~ ♥ I can't get enough of Miyazaki films, seriously! My absolute favourite one is Laputa (Castle in the Sky). I can watch that like 3 times straight and still feel sad for the robot ;__; I loved the robot! T__T *dies*
And wow, your library has ARIA?! :O Lucky~ My library has manga too, but there's really little. :(
My library actually has a nice manga selection and even had an anime club for a while but it died cuz no one went. Unfortunately, it only had ONE volume of Aria...but the library is where I fell in love with Saint Tail and other pretty manga. X3
Hurhur, my local library has a very small manga section, which sadly did not include any ARIA manga. =_= So, really, it was just my luck that when my family was visiting an area with a manga-packed library and I was asked to visit I unknowingly decided to pass. And the manga at my school library are too meh. Peach Girl and Crescent Moon and the like. Obviously aimed at a demographic rather than an all-ages brilliance like ARIA lulz... [rant]
