[Xiong Chiamiov]

Important:

1. How old are you?
A few months shy of 20.

2. What is your gender?
Male.

3. For how long have you been watching anime?
About 2 years.

4. How many anime series/OVA/movies have you watched?( Rough answer )
AniDB says I have 181, although there are several neo1024 Miyazaki rips recently downloaded that I need to add to the database.  Of those recorded in AniDB, 56 are completed and 69 are partially watched.

5. What genre do you like?
Most anything other than long shounen series (I'm looking at you, Naruto!).  I particularly like series that confuse me, and shows with strong female characters, who inevitably end up getting rejected in favor of the pansy girl.

6. How many series do you follow per season?
I prefer to watch things at my leisure, rather than being controlled by release dates, especially after I saw what Code Geass: R2 did to me before it turned to crap.  While I have downloaded the latest of several airing shows, the only one I am (almost) caught-up on, as far as watching, is Ride-Back.

7. What do you watch - SD or HD ?
The highest quality available at the moment that makes sense.  Now that I have a 720p TV, I download up through 720p BD-rips, and have sacrificed my desktop's video card to the server to play them.

8. What size can you bear for 1 episode?
Quality is more important than size.

9. Do you store anime? Is yes, how?
If a complete series is available, I download it if it looks at all interesting; I have, so far, deleted only two series: Wolf's Rain and Kodomo no Jikan.  I have an ever-growing collection of internal hard drives that, if I ever have space enough to store things in the meantime, I will put into some sort of RAID, or at least LVM.

10. How much stored anime do you have and how many titles do you have? ( Rough answer )
AniDB claims 689 GB, although my calculations put it closer to 213 + 136 + 182 + 225 = 756 GB.

11. Do you download dual audio releases?
If available at the time.  I am generally not bothered by English voice actors, unless the ADR producer decides to use a "Southern-belle" accent for a Japanese character (e.g. Love Hina, Azumanga Daioh).  I have a particular fondness for Crispin Freeman.

12. Do your parents know you watch anime?
Yes.  They have seen Spirited Away, as well as bits and pieces of Full Metal Panic.

13. Do you buy anime DVDs?
I recently purchased the complete first season of School Rumble.  It qualified for purchase because it
a) is enjoyable, at least in the first half or so of the WF fansubs I watched
b) has good English voice actors
c) was on clearance for $6 a disc, leading to a total price of $36+shipping, which is what I consider a reasonable price
d) has actually been released in the US
I would like to buy more, but not many have met those requirements.

Not so Important:

1. In which country are you located?
I live on the beautiful central coast of California, USA.

2. What proffession do you have ?
Full-time student (Software Engineering).  Two part-time web-programming jobs (Python, PHP, Perl, Ruby, and a bit of system administration).

3. Name atmost 5 anime titles you liked.
I have enjoyed quite a few.  I cannot give a good list of my favorites, since some have emotional attachment to me, and I cannot tell whether or not they are really any good until I have rewatched them.

4. Name atmost 5 anime titles you wish you never saw it.
For some reason, I watched Rumbling Hearts (Kimi ga Nozomu Eien) all in one day - too many overly-dramatic people making stupid life choices.  I see enough of that around me, and the pain that it brings, so I don't find it enjoyable to watch; I prefer romances with healthy relationships.

While GSG: Il Teatrino was stalled, I read the manga (and bought all the ADV-released ones).  Watching the series after that was painful, but I felt I had to.

5. What type of net connection do you have at home?
I forget what they tell me it is, but I can max 120 kBps up with no other traffic, and 80 kbps without disturbing browsing and online games.  Download is somewhere around 1.1 MBps.  Cable.

6. How much do you pay for your net connection? ( per month )
(tv + internet)/4 = ~20 USD
