Fair enough. I like my men manipulative but controllable, so I tend to appreciate (throw popcorn at the screen and heckle) his more flawed moments. emot-keke

I have two answers to this thread, but I was lucky enough to find one picture with both of them in it. I love Zelda a lot more ever since I started playing Super Smash Brothers, since she really is the best princess ever.

Helena, in my opinion, is probably what Kanae would be like if we saw her more often. Her elegance made her an instant favorite for me. However, her profile kind of leads me to believe that she is quite possibly the most boring person ever. But maybe her hobby isn't really walking her dog, but it's referring to her ability to pull of the "walking the dog" trick with a yo-yo. She's an amazing fighter, and a skilled yo-yo champion. Probably.

Re: Who Are Your Anime Crushes? >8P

I'm developing a bit of a thing for Itoshiki Nozomu-sensei of Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei.  Something about a man in hakama just does it for me.  Due to this reasoning, you'd think I'd like Saionji more, but he only wears hakama while practicing kendo, whereas Itoshiki wears them all the time, which makes him simultaneously hardcore and a walking anachronism.  Then again, this is the series that insists that the Showa Era didn't end in 1989 and in fact continues to this day, so...

Ah, crap, after watching the Kyoto Arc of Rurouni Kenshin for the first time in years I suddenly am lusting over not only Saitou Hajime, but also Sadojima Houji. What. The. FUCK.

...apparently, my men don't have to be pretty. They either just have to be fucking bad-ass, or just happy to fuck everyone else up WITH THEIR BRAIN. emot-gonk I am so screwed.

Yeah but since Saionji doesn't wear it all the time, it has a naughty novelty factor, like women in lingerie. etc-wankgirl

This is the conclusion I came to when I fell for a half-dead zombie who spends half the 40 VOLUME LONG WTF manga series in some state of zombiness, season 1 Zuko from Avatar, and Zelgadis, who is made of rock. And possibly Knives in his 'I am on ur spaceship absorbing ur plantz' state.

Re: Who Are Your Anime Crushes? >8P

I personally always had a crush on Hinata from Naruto, and always got all agitated and annoyed when Naruto was too stupid to go for Hinata instead of the annoyance that is Sakura. But yeah, Hinata is so awesome I even have a one foot tall plushie of her in my room. That is my anime crush.

Re: Who Are Your Anime Crushes? >8P

I'm mentioning Mello FOR THE THIRD TIMESES.

http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d51/trueutenafan/Mello%20and%20Matt/img20051023.jpg
LOOK, HE'S A BAD BOY. THE WIMMENS LOVES HIM.
http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d51/trueutenafan/Mello%20and%20Matt/20070524084414_061213M.jpg
Aww, but he's got a soft side, too. Very soft.
http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d51/trueutenafan/Mello%20and%20Matt/img200509051m.jpg
AND HE'S GOT FANSERVICE IN THE FUCKING BAG.


My relationship with Mello is strange, because I don't want to place it over my relationship with Shiori. But Shiori isn't so much a crush as she is an eternal love that transcends romantic, platonic, and even parental love. Mello only applies to one of those. He isn't my partner, and he sure as hell isn't my friend. But I'd call him daddy. etc-love

Sumeragi Hokuto and Subaru. Tokyo Babylon is my all-time favorite manga, and yes, I would do both of them. And Seishirou, oh my god.

I had an astronomical crush on him in ninth grade, and sometimes DAMN do I remember why. He's brilliant, eccentric, brooding, and ultimately, selfless.

Oosaki Nana. God, I love this woman. You come to love her more the more you understand Japanese society and women. etc-love She really IS insanely independent and strong.

Icchan. I would totally play the Punishment Game with him. Also, labcoats. Also, brilliant. Also, eccentric. But, unlike Folken, has a sense of humor. A damn good one. And that's very important to me.

Lloyd Asplund from Code Geass. More gorgeous, eccentric, lankey, dorky scientists.

The funny thing is that for most part, I don't think she is all that hot, she's built like a beanpole and her face isn't all that much eitherm but none the less I seem to find her oddly appealing.

I prefer "that" to "this". I always wondered why the Host Club had to get rid of her Harry Potter look. It was just so damned adorable.
