Turning to photography as a creative outlet during a valiant fight with breast cancer at age 34, renaissance10 survived and set up a photo contest to help raise funds for the Lavender Trust, a nonprofit that provides information and support to younger women with breast cancer. In the first two years, the competition brought in over £65,000 (that's $107,260.73 U.S.!), with entries from 130 countries last year. Renaissance10 recently joined LiveJournal to meet other passionate photographers and find supportive friends.

こにちはみなさん！私はミハエルです。アニメと漫画が大好き！どうぞ宜しく〜

Hello~ I haven't posted in one of these things for about a year and didn't really plan to, but the majority of my friends list is filled with dead journals and people who don't even talk to me. That makes me sad! It's almost a new year, so why not start it off with some new friends, ne? I've met some of my closest friends ever through add me communities, so I figured this would be a good place to start! (*^^*)/

Leeet's see. About me. XD. I'm a Japanese major who is trying to attain the absolutely unrealistic and masochistic goal of becoming a mangaka. Of course I love animu and mango~ I also really love jmusic, video games, and Asian dramas. Much more than is listed in my userinfo because I really need to update that thing, orz. BUT I'M SURE YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT THAT MUCH, ON TO FANDOM, Y/Y?

Anime: School Days. Tekkonkinkreet. Kannazuki no Miko. Higashi no Eden. Noein. ef - a tale of memories. K-ON!. Higurashi no Naku Koro Ni. Hikaru no Go. Welcome to the NHK. Noir. Gankutsuou. The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. Maria-sama ga Miteru. Strawberry Panic!. Shuffle!. Black Lagoon. Basilisk. RahXephon. Neon Genesis Evangelion. Dennou Coil. Elfen Lied. Kimi ni Todoke. Naruto. Code Geass. Clannad. Boogiepop Phantom. FLCL. Monster.

Favourite Manga: Mirai Nikki. LIFE. Cat Street. Death Note. Liar Game. Deadman Wonderland. Dengeki Daisy. Hikaru no Go. Bakuman. Kashimashi. Tekknonkinkreet: Black and White. Ikigami. Bitter Virgin. Doll Star. Vitamin. Kimi ni Todoke. Monster. Naruto. K-ON!. Confidential Confessions. Doubt.

UM. This isn't a list of everything I've seen/read, just my favourites! My list of things to read and watch is also evergrowing so expect tons more to come soon~ And of course, I'm always up for recs! I love seinen, shoujo, yuri, and the occasional shounen series. I have a MyAnimeList account for those of you who want to be friends there as well.

Add me please?~ I'm willing to add almost anybody; we don't have to have fandoms in common! Just don't be a douchey person and we'll be fine, bbs.

I...uh. Should mention that I like to add people who are genuinely interested in being friends instead of just looking for numbers to fill up their lists. If you think we'll click, let's give it a try~ All I ask is that you make some attempt at a friendship and I'll definitely do the same. <333.

Looking forward to meeting you all~

Due to a lot of stubbornness and not a little bit of luck, I was able to go to Jump Festa last week!

For those who don't know - Jump Festa is a huge event organized by Shounen Jump, where they have all sorts of Jump-series related events and stages and booths and about 180,000 visitors. (Entry is free, but there is a lottery in Jump to get into the main "super stage".)

This year, all of the One Piece seiyuu were present on Day 1 (some several times over), and all of them except Ohtani Ikue, Yamaguchi Yuriko and Cho were there for Day 2. However, Day 2 had Odacchi for the main event!

It was awesome, and I have consequently written a lot about it. The easiest way of navigating my posts are probably by going to my Jump Festa tag, which will display the posts in chronological order, with lots of LJ cuts that can be used as a handy index!

For direct access, the two main posts are:

Day 1

and

Day 2

Bonus posts:

Same-day report of the first day
First impressions of both days
The adventure that was getting there!

Pictures were not allowed, but there are some nice ones of the seiyuu in their cool suits in Hirata's blog and Kappei's blog.

Hay guys.

My name's whatever you want it to be. I'm 15, Filipino, and I live in California. So after making this account I never really took the time to make friends but here I am :D Anyway, I'll mostly post useless stuff, but I like posting videos and pictures. I'll probably be really weird and random too. So here's a list of things I like~

Manga/Manwha & Anime: When it comes to manga and anime, I pretty much like anything. From shojo to shonen to yaoi. I mostly read manga more than I watch anime though. Yep. So I like Axis Powers Hetalia, Bleach, Fullmetal Alchemist, One Piece, Fruits Basket, Ouran High School Host Club, Skip Beat, Defense Devil, Bakuman, Tokyo Mew Mew, Mermaid Melody, Full Moon wo Sagashite, Hayate the Combat Butler(Hayate no Gotoku), Bukiyou na Silent, Death Note, Kimi ni Todoke, Katekyo Hitman Reborn, Alive-The Final Evolution, Kuroshitsuji, Boarding House of Hunks, Pig Bride, and tons more that I'm too tired to list.

J-Dorama/K-Dramas: I love watching Japanese and Korean dramas. My favorites include Nobuta wo Produce, Hana Kimi, Waterboys (all of them!!), Koizora, Nodame Cantabile, You're Beautiful, and High School Samurai. You'll probably see me fangirl about what I watch, too~

Music: I LIKE ALL MUSIC (although I don't really like country music). I love music in all kinds of different languages!

Video Games: Heheh. Gears of War (one and two), Call of Duty (all of them), Age of Empires (all of them), Bioshock, Portal(<33333), The World Ends With You, Kingdom Hearts(all of them), and some others :3

Friend me and I'll friend you back :D

Well, I decided after lurking for so long I oughta post here my self.
My name is Nolan~ and I am here to rock you like a hurricane.
I'm studying psychology because it's possibly my most favorite subject in the world. Well, OK, I like astronomy a lot too, but I'm really not that good at math. It's a terrible story. I also enjoy drawing and writing but most of what you'll ever see out of that from me are terrible things I did while drunk or something. I used to take those things seriously and it only brought me heartache, so, fuck it. :3

As this is animeaddme, I suppose I ought to list my favorites of these so you can determine if we'll ever understand a word out of each other's heads:
Current Favorites (man, I've been watching this shit since like 1997, you don't want a full list of what I've seen lol): Pretty much anything by Urasawa (Monster, Billy Bat, Pluto, 20th Century Boys, Yawara!, etc.), Akira, Hellsing, Gankutsuou, Le Chevalier D'eon (not that far into this one though), Vinland Saga, Death Note, Sakigake!! Cromatie High, Magnetic Rose.

I also enjoy watching things like Ultra Q and Ultraman on occasion.

I usually like older stuff for artistic considerations, but I'm open to watching anything as long as it's something I might enjoy. ;] 

As for some of the non-anime stuff I like, well, there's...
Video Games: Mario games (incl. Mariokart and Smash Bros.), Zelda games, the first few Sonic games, Resident Evil, Silent Hill, Altered Beast, Baten Kaitos, Crystal Chronicles, Devil May Cry, Metal Gear Solid and Metal Gear Solid 3, Star Fox.

TV (whether aired currently or not): Dexter, House, The Real Ghostbusters, The Venture Bros, A Bit of Fry and Laurie, Reno! 911, Star Trek (the original series), Dungeons and Dragons.

Movies: uh... that list is way long, better to just read it on my user info.

Other: I like paper games (table top RPGs), the 1980's, the occult, being gawffik, steampunk (clockwork too), HARRY POTTER like you wouldn't believe, body art and modifications, and pet cats. I read, too, a lot, but it's almost all like, reference books and articles and stuff lol.

My journal is mostly every day stuff with the odd fan-boy rant tossed in here and there. During the school times, school themes will pop up far more often (of course).

And yes. Well, if any of that intrigued you and you care to add, comment here or on my FO post, that same old song and dance yeah.

Christmas fic originally from the op_fanforall2 last year.

PG rated FantasyAUcrack!FLUFF of DOOOOOOOM.

I only have one item of One Piece merchandise available at the moment. However, I figured it was worth posting here anyway since I really, really need to get rid of him!

Hey my real name is Esha but I prefer to go by a slew of different names. One such name I like going by is Taigali. I am a writer and often use the name Taiga, Li or Sepholi in my stories. But that's neither here nor there. I am 25, a college student probably studying Psychology and Asian Studies and I am an anime fan.

So far  my favortie animes are Hellsing, ToraDora!, Michiko to Hatchin, Azumanga Daioh, Devil may cry, Bleach, Gantz, ONE PIECE, Shikabane Hime, Mahoromatic, Hand Maid May, FlCl, Howl's Moving Castle, Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagaan, Tokyo Majin, Darker than Black.

I am a video game player but I am selective in the games I like. I am a rpg freak though. I'm not sure what else to say about me. I don't write terribly long entries all the time, in fact I haven't done so in about six years. I am a good friend once you get past the shell. Also, my goal as a writer is to create the ultimate FEMALE Alucard.

Bye!
Tai

Attention fic writers (and readers)! I was thinking of creating a One Piece drabble comm which would consist of weekly challenges and members writing drabbles, crossposting everywhere, and everyone having a jolly good time. Would anyone actually be interested in joining a community like this and would you even participate? I personally just want to spark the writing muse in everyone.

Comments, questions, etc! Post em here.</strike>

EDIT; Okay so I was wrong apparently a community does exist. It's slightly different from what I thought but the concept is the same. So now everyone go join onepiece_300. Sorry for the confusion D:

こんにちはみんあさん！わたしはさしみです。よろしくおねがいします！
Hello! My name is Chelsea, but you're welcome to call me a collection of different nicknames such as Chelleh. I am a 21-year old South Carolina-born-and-raised female currently attending an all-women's college in my state's capital. I am an English major, focusing on being a grammar nazi business and publications, and I am aspiring to become either a famous blogger/my own boss or an editor-in-chief for a well-known magazine. You may know me from my two small LiveJournal communities, triplebaka, a community of individuals (re)learning Japanese and methods of learning the language, and mysticticket, my personal icon community. I am currently taken by the love of my life, hashioki and will be moving in with him this coming May.

I will admit I'm somewhat of a Twilight fan. You shouldn't confuse me with Twihards, however, because I think all of the crap people say about it is just hilarious. :)

I have been into anime/manga since as far as I can remember. It all began with Card Captor Sakura which was playing every morning and afternoon on Kids WB. My love for anime/manga has constantly grown since then to include series and other Japanese delights such as...
Card Captor Sakura, Sailor Moon, Inuyasha, Alien Nine, Boys:Be, Confidential Confessions, Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicles, Wish, Kare Kano, Kampfer, Bakemonogatari, Pokemon, Toradora!, Full Moon wo Sagashite, Desire Complex, anything by Hayao Miyazaki, Death Note, Himiko-den, Sora no Otoshimono, Shamanic Princess, Revolutionary Girl Utena, Princess Tutu, Hot Gimmick, FLCL, Nana, Serial Experiments Lain, Chobits, Code Geass, and many others I can't remember right now. XD

Though I'm still pretty new to the fandom, I'm also a HUUUUUGE~ VOCALOID FAN. So if you are too, you automatically get brownie points and an add.

As for my journal, there are many things people may want to know about it before adding me. 1. I live off of first impressions; if you seem like a great and awesome person at first, the likelihood that I'll defriend you later decreases unless you instigate something. 2. I don't refriend unfriended friends; if we were once friends, I'd prefer to leave it at that. We were once friends. 3. This is my journal; please respect that if I ever say anything offensive that it is for mere fun and not to be taken seriously at any point in time. I've been told I wear my heart on my sleeve so you'll know when it's time to be serious and when it's not. 4. I'll be as open as you want me to be; I believe that any and every person who has become friends of mine should be willing and able to ask me any questions or express any concerns at any time. If you feel something has gone wrong, I'd prefer you tell me than hide it from me until a breaking point. If you give me this respect, I'll be sure to return it to you~

I enjoy making friends who love what I love, who have a great sense of humor, and who are willing to have a close friend until the end! :)

I bring Fanart,
XD and it'd be Marco, first commander from the whitebeard. :)
