Happy Birthday to the The Anime Blog’s web master extraordinaire, David!!!
Posted in Anime News | Tagged david's birthday, happy birthday

I was exposed to anime as a child while living in Germany after watching the Japanese version of Hans Christian Anderson’s the Little Mermaid. In high school, a classmate in art brought in Akira as an example of Japanese art. I wasn’t very impressed with anime at the time, but my re-exposure to it in 2000 thanks to Escaflowne had me hooked for life.After sorting out what I liked about anime (great stories, beautiful animation and epic battles) and disliked about anime (big boobs, angst-y 15 year-old kids, most mecha, sports stories and style-over-substance), I got into it with a vengeance.I do love almost all aspects of Japanese culture and try to be involved with it as much as possible. I have no problem admitting that I incorporate a lot of Japanese trends and traditions into my life as I modify them and make them my own. Anime is a big part of that, along with all the sub-cultures, past and present.
Happy birthday! ^_^ Belated, sorry, but this is the first time I’ve gotten to the intarwebz today.
Caitlin – Thank you very much! It was a great birthday. ^_^
Happy Belated Birthday!
Happy Birthday, David! Belated, but I’ve been busy
Hope you had a fun time.
