Nicknames:
Kamui

Age:
25

Gender:
Male

Location:
N/A

Occupation:
Hikikomori ...Er, nothing at the moment.

Dreams/Aspirations:
It'd be cool to go on an adventure and save the world one day. But more realistically (somewhat), I'd like to eventually get out there and travel the world. For the near future, though, I'm hoping to go back to college. I'd like to study anthropology.
Being able to talk to people or leave the house alone without panicking would be pretty good, too, ahaha... Ahem, moving on...

Biggest Accomplishment:
Probably this. Heh. Eden, Syrunn, and Sengoku. 'Course, the forums never would have gotten this far without a lot of help from my friends.

Other Websites You Visit:
Many. The aforementioned forums, of course. Cracked, as Niva above me linked. TV Tropes, Wikipedia (and several other wikis), Zerochan, Penny Arcade, and YouTube, to name some.

Pets:
One dog, one cat, and a fish.

Hobbies/Interests:
Well, I should probably say RP'ing here, as well as Japanese/Asian culture. Heh. Other than that: anime/manga, comics, video games, computers/internet, Dungeons & Dragons, Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG, Magic the Gathering, anthropology, paleontology, history, religion/folklore, philosophy, science/technology, reading/writing.

Favorite Movie:
Ah, jeez. It's hard to name just one. I enjoy the horror, fantasy, sci-fi, and historical genres. Almost anything with Jackie Chan is good, and I love Hayao Miyazaki's films. The Dark Crystal is still just as awesome now as when I was a kid.

Favorite TV Series:
Kino's Journey, Trigun, Puella Magi Madoka Magica, Escaflowne, Criminal Minds, Mythbusters, Ghost in the Shell: S.A.C., and Big Bang Theory... to name a few. Though, nowadays I probably watch shows (anime, mostly) online more than on an actual TV.

Favorite Book:
Hmm... The Sano Ichiro series is pretty good, if you like mysteries and/or feudal Japan. Harry, Potter, Redwall, Dragonlance... I'm currently reading World Without End, which has been rather enjoyable thus far.
Does manga count here? If so, I really liked Welcome the NHK.

Favorite Author:
Hmm... I'm not really sure I have one in particular.

Favorite Game:
Far too many. Final Fantasy, Star Ocean, Legend of Dragoon, Pokémon, Harvest Moon/Rune Factory, Persona 3 FES, The World Ends With You, Fallout 1 & 2, Devil Survivor, Mabinogi, Dragon Quest... Hurr, I like RPGs...
Minecraft, Way of the Samurai 2, The Sims, Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Super Mario 64, Dungeons & Dragons, Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG, Magic the Gathering...
I'm not too big on board games, but Clue is all right. Chess can be kinda fun (but I suck at it).

Favorite Musician:
Hmm. It's hard to name just one... Yōsei Teikoku, ALI PROJECT, Maximum the Hormone, Queen, Nobuo Uematsu, Nightwish, Girl's Generation, BoA, Nana Mizuki, angela, Avril Lavigne, Green Day, Weird Al Yankovic, Kanon Wakeshima, Yoko Kanno, Little Non, Utada Hikaru... To name some.

Favorite Food:
Pizza, pasta/noodles, tacos. Cheese. Vegetables in general, some fruits to a lesser degree. Also, pizza.

Favorite Beverage:
Root beer, lemonade, water, (red) wine.

Favorite Holiday:
Probably a toss up between Christmas and Halloween.

Most colors are purdy in their own way, but I've a particular fondness for orange.
