About Me

I might be described by my wife and son as a 55-year-old unapologetic otaku and obsessive collector. My love for anime started when I was young, around 1980, and lived in the Philippines, with shows like Voltez 5. I lived on Clark Air Force Base which was the only reason I was able to watch Japanese mecha/robot shows in the first place as these shows depicted rebellion and "excessive violence". At that time these types of shows were banned by martial law censorship directives in the Philippines under the Ferdinand Marcos regime. Because I lived on base, we had access to AFRTS (armed forces radio and television services) which was exempt from those martial law directives. That is where my anime roots were born and if it weren't for the AFRTS, I may have never known and grown to love anime.

Probably Borderlands - I've tried several anime type games but I just can't dig into any for very long before becoming bored, so if you have any recommendations, lay em on me.

I saw your comment in chat, and thought I would reply to you here as well. Read the "About World of Anime" page to read about the history of this site. It was once much larger (which presented its own set of problems) and had been on hiatus for the past 5 years up until very recently. The site is in the middle of a "rebirth" so you are joining at a great time if you want to help the community grow. Either way, I hope you enjoy your time here. And I always welcome comments or suggestions. You leave them directly on my profile, or use the Contact Us page.

Sorry about that. I had the public API for Jikan up, which gave great search results, but it has become unstable at this point and frequently not working. So I have replaced it with my own instance running on my server. It works, but the results are not that great. I am working on it now to try to tweak it to give better results. I will post when it is working better. Thanks for being patient, and for all of your help and suggestions. I really appreciate it.
