Hey guys! I'm not exactly new here but looking for a fresh start. I have lost 40 lbs using MFP using a simple calorie deficit. I want to make new friends who like some of the same things I do.

Obviously I love anime, which is why I'm on this forum. I also love cats and stuff. I like lifting and I tolerate running so I can eat more.

But yeah, I'll leave a longer reply when I have time. Add me if you want!

Hi everyone! I'm so happy to see a group of anime fans on here, its so welcoming!

My name is Jenifer, I'm 26 and, like so many others here, my first was Sailor Moon. I wanted to be Sailor Jupiter so bad as a kid! Then, because they were in the same programming block, I saw Ronin Warriors/Yoroiden Samurai Troopers. I wanted to be Makoto and have Seiji as my boyfriend, it would be perfect. Oh, the dreams of a pre-teen!

I still would like to have Makoto's athletic physique and ability to kick serious A, so I need to get in shape first. I have cosplayed before, but never felt comfortable because I was never in the best shape for the role. Just before the release of Evangelion 2.2, I really wanted to cosplay as Mari in her pink plugsuit, so I lost about 15 lbs, but when I moved from my hometown of Baltimore, MD to live with my boyfriend in Chicago, IL, I couldn't afford a gym membership for over a year, so my healthy habits slipped away. It has been 4 years since, and now that our apartment has a gym, there are no excuses! I'm currently about 140 lbs and want to get down to 120 or less, Im more concerned about the way it looks than the number.

As far as favorite anime, Gunslinger Girl is probably number 1. Evangelion, Azumanga Daioh, and basically anything done by Type Moon (Fate series, Tsukihime, Kara no Kyoukai) all round out my favorites. Right now, we've been watching Attack on Titan and Stella C3-bu.

Nice to meet everyone, I look forward to talking to you!

Hey! I live near Chicago too and Attack on Titan is awesome. One of my favorite!!

Hello everyone! My name is kourtne I love animes and asian dramas. Im a bit ashamed b/c im married and a mother of two yet love all thing kawaii and i secretly watch anime which my husband may or may not know lol my favorite anime of all time is Attack on Titan had me at the edge of my seat the whole time but I also love NANA and Skip Beat! Anyway need to lose a lot of weight and such so I can maybe cosplay? that would be awesome lol add me ^ ^

Hi. I LOVE anime. I used to think it was stupid.. (like in High school...) and ANYWAY it's weird cuz when i was 8 I LOVED Pokemon!
A guy I dated introduced me back into anime between 2009-2010 with Death Note.. Then when I met my now husband (through L4D2 on the PC) he told me about Bakuman.. and then proceeded to tell me about all these other animes.. When he moved up here (from Indiana to Minnesota) we powered through a TON of anime such as Fruits Basket, Vampire Knight, FMA, FMA Brotherhood, Clannad, NANA, and tons others. I can't even count how many animes I've seen.. as well as how much we've purchased. Rightstuf.com has made TONS off my household now.. lol

ANYWAY, my name is Trista. I don't have any unique nickname-I've called myself TJ before, but I don't have a Japanese nickname of any sort. kinda makes me sad..
Age: 23 (soon to be 24 in April)
Occupation: Bank Teller
I'm married to a anime lover/video game addict and we have a little boy together named William (he's 2). I'm sure my son will love anime as much as us since that's all we have on TV at our house. We don't have cable!

I do have other shows I like that Aren't anime related like The Walking Dead, Biggest Loser, Extreme Makeover: Weight Loss Edition, and the TLC shows like my 600 lb life. I find those weight loss shows are great motivators (I get to watch these shows at my parent's house if I'm over when they're on.. have yet to see the newest season of The Walking Dead).

I started on MYFITNESSPAL in 2012 and have since lost 98 lbs (had gotten down 100 in a little over a year but gained back about 10 and have been fighting them since!)..

I went to an anime convention for the first time as a gift to myself for losing that much weight. I got to meet some of my favorite voice actors like Todd Haberkorn, Greg Ayres, and Monica Rial. I also got to meet Sonny Strait and Spike Spencer. It was a grand time.

Nice to meet everyone

Hello! Loving that there's an anime group in here! I'm a 30-something from Hawaii. First anime I got into was Ranma 1/2. Recent addictions were: Kyokai no kanata, Steins Gate, Attack on Titan. I'd be awesome if I could lose weight and get into cosplay (o.o).

EXCUSE ME BRADLEY-CHAN...but Spongebob is teh awesome. :drinker:

I'm more of a manga fan, as I just don't care to watch much TV anymore, but I do love certain series. Haven't watched anything in a while either.

Naruto is #1 for me. After that, in no particular order, I'd say...Hunter x Hunter, YuYu Hakusho, Hellsing (obviously, even if certain so-call anime FREAKS can't tell the difference between Greed from FMA and Alucard... :laugh: ), Samurai 7, Bleach, FMA, DBZ, Yu-Gi-Oh (the first series :blushing: ), Eureka 7, Cowboy Bebop, Trigun, Gokusen ( :laugh: )

1) Its Kun....not Chan - not a girl

2) Sorry but I don't like a lot of those vampire/zombie animes or shows for that matter, and I said PRIDE not GREED....get it right darn it!!!

3) Yu-gi-oh has an online PS3 game you can download - like $10 - LETS DUEL!!!!

Greeting from California.
I've just started really taking MFP seriously so I decided to join a couple groups so I had to search for anime to find my peeps! ^_^ I have been watching anime for a long time. I would say I got really into it around 18 years ago (yes Im old). I have so many favorites . It would take too long to list them all, but here just off the top of my head:

All times: 12 Kingdoms, Hunter X Hunter (both), Bleach, Beserk, Naruto, Fruit Basket, Vampire Hunter D, Hellsing, Kenshin, Full Metal Alchemist (both), Death Note
Recent: Nyon Nyon Buri, Golden Time, Monogatari, Steins Gate, Attack on Titan
This season: Witch craft works, Noragami, Nobonaga the Fool, Nisekoi

For everyone 1 listed there is probably another 5, so I'll leave it at that

Hey there, I'm lorylorybobory. I used to be hopelessly obsessed with anime, watching 150+ episodes of something a week, skipping school to watch/read a new show and horribly alienated myself from my peers. Nowadays I've calmed down and only watch stuff casually... I actually stopped watching anime all together for over a year but Noragami and Attack on Titan drew me back into the game.

Some of my favourite shows include Madoka Magica, FMA: Brotherhood, Penguindrum and Lucky Star.

WELCOME BACK to MFP and Glad to have some new blood in the Group!

AoT is awesome....Season 2 should be coming back in the next month or two.

1) Not to butt in but...
"~ chan （～ちゃん）" is often attached to children's names when calling them by their given names. It can also be attached to kinship terms in a childish language.

Ya don't have to be a girl for it to be used .

2) I have no comment as this is a SUPER OLD thread and I just wanted to be informative. I apologize if this made me come off a *kitten*.

3) Card games again sounds fun! I'd like to try it again sometime. Anything online that one could play that you (or anyone for that matter) could recommend that isn't a pay to win?

Hey I recently joined- I go by Rookia. I'm a pretty big fan of anime and I've been searching for a group like this and found one. So I'm pretty glad there's some people on this site that are fans of anime as well.


My favorites would have to be: Nana, D. Gray-man, Durarara!!!, Love Live, Idolmaster, Bleach, Naruto...


That's just a few. I'm always up for talking about anime or games or whatever so anyone is always welcome to message me! ^^

Hey everyone!
It's nice to find an anime group here. My favourite anime include One Piece, Yu-Gi-Oh, Dragon Ball/Z, Digimon, Black Butler, D. Gray Man, Fullmetal Alchemist and more.

I want to get fit and healthy, and I'd love to celebrate the day I reach my goal by cosplaying for the very first time. It'd be great to make some friends here, so feel free to add me and we can work together and help keep each other on track!
