Bobbierob’s History With Anime

Foreword

So, a foreword, shall we? At the time of this writing, (and this post has been spontaneously written, rewritten, and revised), I am about three five months late in finishing this post. For this, I apologize from the bottom of my heart. Looking on the bright side, though, writing this “History with Anime” post has taught me many things about blogging, and even writing in general.

Anyways, this post is in response to Nopy’s “My History with Anime” project. If you own a blog yourself, please do check it out. It is pretty interesting, and I found it a fun idea to get involved in.

Unlike many others, my first encounters with anime weren’t really that exciting. Sure, like all of my fellow 8-and-9- year olds, we all watched Yu-Gi-Oh!, collected Pokémon cards, and battled each other’s Beyblades on the playground. Still, as everyone knows, anime isn’t just limited to little kids’ entertainment, is it? It’s that, and so much more.

Japan Earthquake and Tsunami

As many of you may or may not have heard already, on March 11, 2011, a magnitude 8.9 earthquake with its epicentre about 70 miles off the coast of Sendai, Japan hit, causing a tsunami with 4-metre-high waves to crash into the north-eastern coast of Japan, causing widespread damage.
