General Anime/Manga/Otaku Thread

[Hexadecimal*]

I actually have a wall scroll of Sai from Hikaru no Go I've been meaning to put back up. I likes me some pretty men.

I still remember the first time playing FF9 and seeing Kuja for the first time and they didn't say anything that indicated gender at that point and I was like 9 or 10 at the time so wasn't too focused on the text. See that first CGI cutscene as he is leaving on that dragon and I thought it was a chick till later, nope dude. Real eye opener for a 9-10 yr old isn't it?

It happens. If it makes you feel any better I thought that Rabbit from Winnie the Pooh was a girl when I was little.

I'm curious as to why you thought Rabbit was a girl when you were little? (I realize this is off topic for this thread as Winnie the Pooh isn't manga/anime related but you brought it up)

I think it had a lot to do with the fact he didn't wear any gender specific clothing, I thought his voice sounded like it could be a woman, and I thought his mannerisms were rather feminine. Anthropomorphic characters sometimes confused me when I was very little.
