Growing up, whenever I exited the movies, My head always went over the movie I'd seen. Often I imagine characters from the story winding up in other stories. most of them I forgot by now, but the ones that stuck I put to paper. I started writing to see where some of those threads would go, and because its FUN!

Now, I read the works of other fans. Lots of folks have ideas that they want to share, and share some of my own works as well. Everyone hopes their story, their work will be remembered.

Favorite Cartoons:

Danny Phantom (Solid story, one of the ones I remember best. MC solid with his own interests, handles them as well as a teenager can. plenty of enemies to fight. Kinda wish Dani was in more episodes, she was cool)

Ben 10 [Classic / Alien Force / Ultimate Alien / Omniverse] (Shapeshifters are fun. kids/teenagers with the power to change into alien species are fun. good moments. Classic set a good standard with its story; not always the best but good enough for me. Alien force and Ultimate Alien added a different tone to the stories, or tried to anyways; some people liked it, others don't. Omniverse made some interesting additions to the story/world, even if some of them are more weird than cool. very anime inspired, more so than the entries before it. )

Generator Rex (Liked it for the characters and conflict. it wasn't as mainstream as others, but it was solid story, characters and villains. Van Kleiss id, as far as I'm concerned, one of the best major antagonists in Cartoons)

Spectacular Spider Man (Solid show of the star spangled Web-slinger. one of his best showings in the animated story. Excelsior!)

Voltron Force (Interesting story, though unfinished. the Cadets and Paladins were interesting)

Voltron: Legendary Defender (Honestly, I like the Lotor from this story better; more nuance and cunning. Still, the charcters were interesting and grew on me. Kinda wish there were more Robeasts to fight, but it still worked out despite that. the story made up for the lack of robeasts)

KIPO (cute story, with some good story beats. MC is intersting from the get go, and gets stronger as the story progresses. Even still, she the heart of the story, and I mean that in the best way)

She-Ra, Princesses of Power (I like the conflict, internal and external of the main characters. Entrapta's my favorite Princess; quirky genius rules)

Favorite Manga/Anime:

Akame Ga Kiru (Manga is elite story, the anime can go get Akame Ga killed for all I care! Also, Mc Becomes a Dragon. Epic finisher of a story.)

Code Geass (One of the best edge-lords with flair, intellect and wit to match any Persona he takes on. )

Fate Stay Night (Shirou's cool, and interesting take on the paragon archetype. Also fun seeing interactions in fanfics about it. )

Fate Apocrypha (Not as popular as the above, but I liked it. Also, MC turns into a dragon, because HELL YEAH he does!)

My Hero Academia (Shonen story with superheroes, large cast. Not a fan of some characters make me mad or roll my eyes, but most are enjoyable.)

Gundam Iron Blooded Orphans (This one... made me cry at the end. I get invested way before I realized it would be a tragedy. Still good memories though.)

Gurren Lagann (Aside from featuring giant robots, eventually planet sized ones, it was a touching tale of growing up, celebrating Life and fighting to keep it.)

Fairy Tail (Guilds of kickass mages who get up to shenanigans- Yes Please. Several Characters have power of Dragons. Nuff said.)

Eminence in Shadow (Edgelord Psycho who is dumb in the most hilarious of ways. Manga beats the Anime though; to much like other anime)

Solo Leveling (Not a manga, technically, but too awesome to leave out! really good, zero-to-hero story. It takes the tropes of a power fantasy and does everything right with it. leveling system, Check. Power and growth they earn from the blood and sweat MC sheds as he goes, Check. Epic fights that leave me satisfied but still craving more? YES! )

Favorite Games:

Horizon Zero Dawn / Forbidden West (the world building is incredible, the tribes feel original enough that there's no direct modern parallel, and the plot of each game flows into a solid narrative. either story could be made into a Novel and still read like solid gold. The people of Zero Dawn probably tell her story like how the Epic Iliad and Odyssey were told in ages past, that's just flat out cool on a meta level. Also = Robot. Dinosaurs... ROBOT. DINOSAURS! Nuff said.)

Persona 5 Royal (Between the games and Manga, I just like the story. mostly like the characters and how they interact. Makoto, Ryuji, Futaba, Akira and Akechi are some of my favorite characters. )

Persona 5 Strikers ( The game's story was interesting, not as much as 5, but still good. I find Sophia's code name as Sophie to be lazy: i'd go with Diamond, Codex or Nerve. Zenkichi's cool, as a older new guy looking after a bunch of crazy kids. )

Infamous Second Son (Solid Disection of Superhero stories. Game features some interesting characters; most people who play the game will remember the hearfelt relationship between Delson and Reggi. Story was coherent and really touching, from the begginning all the way to the end... if you played straight paragon, which I always did. They could have done more in a sequel game )

Less than Favorite Manga/Anime/Cartoons/Games:

Fate Extra Last Encore (So much potential that was murdered by 3rd episode. The ending made me sad, and NOT the good kind. I liked the games and tie in stories, but the anime crashed it. )

Highschool DxD (Basic Harem anime, more fan service than plot. Canon MC's to idiotic and perverse to be invested in. the world of DxD is interesting though. Also, Fanfics make him a more bearable main Character, either with nuance, charisma, a code of morals or a mix of the three. )

Evangelion (Not my favorite story, BUT it does have its merits. I do like the fan works where Shinji gets payback on his old man, in whatever form, and possibly live a good life. Despite the cool robots, the overall story doesn't catch my interests. I get the appeal, but its not a favorite of mine. )

Sword Art Online (Story has lots of issues, mainly in how Kirito figures out the ploy of main bad in first season. Also, how did he survive long enough to stab Kiyaba? by all what was shown, it makes no sense; the only reason he succeeded was because of 'Protagonists Status', which is lame!)

Ultimate Spiderman Cartoon (I honestly enjoyed it, but the story was really out there. Honestly, it felt like the story focused more on Spidey than Peter, and relagated all Peter's home issues null. Solid fights and humor, but overall not as memorable as other cartoons I watched as a kid. still, it was good for laughs; then again, its Spiderman, so of course its got solid comedy)

Persona 3 (The original story, from the game and manga, left me confused. My main gripe was the relationship btw the MC and the rest of the cast; it wasn't as strong to me as in later Persona games. probably due to the male/female choice in MC and how it affects Arcana bonds. I hope Reload can change my mind. Also, the villains were bland; give them a motivation to use it for personal gain, maybe tie them to the foreboding evil at the end of Tartarus.)

Current works in Progress

Assassin Trickster of a Moonlit World ( Akira Kurusu was the trickster who stands agianst ruin using the power of the Persona in the Metaverse. What if, before he was raised to be a magus, and a member of a clan of Magi that controlled other Magi from the shadows, one seperate from the Clock Tower or any other organization of Magi? And what if he wanted out? This is his story. )

The Symbiote Hero ( Kiritsugu saved a young boy in the fire of Fuyuki after the 4th Grail war. Shirou's future is set by this act, from the action to a smile. He would be a hero, even if it doomed him. But what would happen if Kiritsugu bonded to an alien Symbiote right as he adopts him? What happens when the magus killer passes on more than his dream to his son? )

Persona Edgerunners: 1st Providence ( David Martinez lived and died on the edge, a punk whose story, while remembered, ended a tragedy. But Fate's intervened to set him down a different path… the Path of the wildcard? He'll navigate the city of dreams and hopefully come out alive. )
