*bows* Hello, I am Ryouko. I'm a 18 year-old chica from the Dallas / Fort Worth area of Texas, and I'm just graduating highschool. I'm heading off to UTA
(University of Texas at Arlington) next Fall to major in art and perhaps english, not quite sure on that part yet. I currently work at a small card/gift shop in the mall as part-time (which is really sucking right now with the holidays and mother's day weekend. -.-;;)
I only started collecting cels seriously when I started my job late last November. I bought my first cel though back in September, at AnimeFest in Dallas, in which I bought the Tamahome with the Oni symbol (still one of my faves) from Curt at Asylum.
I only collect from Fushigi Yuugi, half because of my limited budget and half because I can't see spending so much money on any other series. I absolutely love all the characters from FY, and the detailed art. It's amazing to me. However I do love animes such as Escaflowne, Utena, the Slayers, Saber Marionette J, Tenchi Muyo and Sailormoon especially.
I've gone by the nick Ryouko for some odd 4 years now, a long story to explain. Basically Tenchi Muyi : In Love was the first real anime movie I ever saw, and Ryoko was my most favourite character of all. When I checked the spelling on the blockbuster tape case it was spelled Ryouko, so I started using that. Even though I later found it was wrong, I kept it anyways since it was different. :o Tenchi Muyo : In Love still remains my favourite anime movie of all.
Off to bed with me, been a long day. @.@ Oyasumi! |
