this is what i do instead of writing

[esmenet]

The Rules: Don't take too long to think about it. Fifteen fictional characters (television, films, plays, books, video games) who've influenced you and that will always stick with you. List the first fifteen you can recall in no more than fifteen minutes. Tag at least fifteen friends.

Hmmm . . . okay then! :D

1. Himemiya Anthy (Shoujo Kakumei Utena)
2. Natsume Takashi (Natsume Yuujinchou)
3. Scar (Fullmetal Alchemist)
4. Kaitou Kid (Magic Kaito/Detective Conan)
5. Monkey (Chinese Theo/Mythology)
(. . . this is actually really hard. I tend to be influenced by works, not characters.)
6. Ayanami Rei (Neon Genesis Evangelion)
7. Kiryuu Nanami (Shoujo Kakumei Utena)
8. Mai (Avatar: The Last Airbender)
9. Yuuko (xxxHOLiC)
10. Kyoko (20th Century Boys)
11. Christopher Chant (Chronicles of Chrestomanci)
12. Esmenet (The Prince of Nothing) Not like that's obvious or anything. (*googles* omg, my stuff comes up higher than almost all the references to the actual character. Wow!)
13. Doumeki Shizuka (xxxHOLiC)
14. Oosawa Eriko (BOSS)
15. Narcissa Malfoy (This version, at least.)

. . . next time, I'm just going to list influential stories. It would be a thousand times easier. *sigh*


(Btw, it's really weird to read discussion posts about The Prince of Nothing and see my name all over the place. I have a way stronger reaction to that than to people talking about Lily Evans, for some reason. But that's an entirely different post.)

Fantastic article as always, I am seriously considering something along the lines of an affiliate section on my own site… so very timely post.

I wanted to say that it’s nice to know that someone else also mentioned this as I had trouble finding the same info elsewhere. This was the first place that told me the answer. Thanks.
