*Shakes head* I have no idea about the exclamation points. Is it supposed to make me feel excited? Am I supposed to get pumped up just by reading the title? I don't get it (like modern art).
Anyway, I think any time you get a cast where the ratio of guys to girl is 20:1, there's gonna be super gay cuteness. Usually the whole team is male while only the manager is female. Sometimes the shippiness is all in the fangirls' heads (like I really don't think there was much shippiness in Whistle! It was kind of actually about soccer and friendship and teamwork and perseverance), but in other anime like Free!, the gay pairings are 99.9% canon. Haru just needs to actually kiss Rin already. I mean seriously, now. They're all over each other, shirtless in tight swim trunks. :/ It's a little ridiculous. It leaves absolutely no work for the fangirls. Haha.
So I'm watching Kuroko now, and it's pretty awesome. I LOVE Kise. He's super cute and kind of reminds me of certain aspects of Kaito. Kuroko's a cutie, and Kagami-chi is pretty cool too. I still don't love the drawing style, and the muscles are weird, but I'm enjoying the show regardless. I'm, like, SO so thrilled that the coach is a girl. I forget her name, but she's actually pretty cool. I haven't seen an anime with a female coach before (besides PoT). Maybe I should say a young female coach. Anyway, I think that's really neat. I'm glad I looked into it.

Yeah, I didn't sense any shippiness in Whistle! (I feel like there should be a period here, cuz I'm not trying to end my statement with an exclamation point . . . Yeah, what's with the exclamation points?)

Drrrx2 has ended and won't be back until July. I really liked this season because of Akabayashi and Vorona. They are voiced by Kappei and MAO respectively and they fought each other in the final episode. Ahhh voice actor connections are so nice. Suddenly, I really want a yakuza!Kaito and assassin!Aoko AU.

Ohhhh, I still need to watch that. Wait what? Yamaguchi Kappei-seiyuu voices a character in the new season? And MAO, too? Now I HAVE to watch it!

Yes Natsumi, hope you get a chance to soon! Kappei's using his deep (almost like L's) voice here uwu.

ohh right, I completely forgot about the new DRRR! season, gotta watch it sometime.. xD I've been only watching MK1412 and a few DC episodes here and there lately, I've no idea what else is currently airing.
and I saw some sports anime mentioned earlier... my personal favourite is probably Yowamushi Pedal. xD It's awesome. I never thought I would get into an anime that's about bicycles.
but what I'm really looking forward to is the anime adaptation of Akagami no Shirayuki-hime this year. ^_^

Maaan, thanks for reminding me about DRRR!, too...geez, I should probably add that to my MAL so I don't forget. Except I haven't updated my MAL in forever, either, haha.
Let's see what I've been watching/reading...
Assassination Classroom, Cute High Earth Defense Club LOVE! and Boku no Hero Academia (manga) are the only three really recent ones I've been watching/reading. Well, I guess you can count Log Horizon, too, since the second season just finished recently.
And then besides that, I'm watching/reading a lot of older stuff. Mostly shoujos, like Koukou Debut and Okami Shoujo to Kuro Ouji, but then I have Liar Game, Witchcraft Works, etc etc...
And not to mention the things that I want to watch coming out this year. [stares hopefully at the Haikyuu!! movie]

Speaking of older stuff, has anyone read or watched Rurouni Kenshin before?

"this one" XD I don't remember too much of it, but I love it. I read it at the library in a whole bunch of 3 in 1 volumes. Kenshin is amazing XD I love his "oro"s, though I can never pronounce when he does a whole string of them *note to self: put Kenshin memes in the meme thread* And that very depressing part when he chained up his sakabato . . . Okay, no spoilers.

Kenshin is so lovable XD in particular, I like that his eyes change color when he switches to a different sort of mindset (wait, was that implemented in the manga? like, violet for the normal rurouni, blue for a bit more serious, and gold for the hitokiri?) as well as his entire "sessha" and "de gozaru" and "oro" thing XD
//makes frustrated noises// the depressing parts were so depressing... I really hated that guy who caused that :T
...and I'm sure you'll be interested to know that I have a fic planned called "Spirited Misadventures" in which Kenshin happens to run into a certain shrunken detective in DC's first movie. and it goes on to the second, and third, and etc.

I don't remember, but I definitely have seen that in the anime (of which I've only seen like the first two episodes and a bunch of pictures) Is this what you're feeling like, Starlight?: *tilts head and perks ears up* RuroKen x DC crossover? I'm very interested to know that

....maybe >.> <.< XD
It'll take me forever to actually get around to writing it, but yeah XD I know there was one person on ff.net that had one where takagi was related to kenshin or something... odd, but well-written. I think. gonna need to do a bit of digging to make sure XD
oh, and on the newer side of the spectrum, has anyone read itsuwaribito utsuho? ...I'm also reluctantly following the bleach manga, but only for closure. like, "I want to know what happens but I'm not very happy with where it's going" kind of thing.

I remember seeing RK promos on Toonami back in the day, but that was while I was still in my "Mommy, action shows are scary!" phase. I hear the anime starts going downhill toward the end, while the manga's a classic all the way through.
Aside from that... the only manga I'm following right now (Conan/MK aside) is One Piece. The handful of other series I used to follow (Negima, Franken Fran) have all ended now.
