Thankful for Anime, 2008

By TheBigN

When I did this last year, I thought I was a little unique for setting it up the way I did. Turns out that this same format (and the title even), had been done for years past by one Jason Miao. Goes to show you how originality is hard to come by (orz). But it still is a good time to be thankful for yet another fun year in new anime series.

I’m thankful for more despair.

I’m thankful for one last gondola ride exploring Neo Venezia’s wonders.

I’m thankful for finding the emotions you were looking for.

I’m thankful for messages always getting where they need to go.

I’m thankful for more banter and less bartering.

I’m thankful for taking you as you are.

I’m thankful for bringing healthy back.

I’m thankful for resonance.

I’m thankful for vodka.

I’m thankful for learning that growing up is much harder than expected.

I’m thankful for being able to end things that need it.

I’m thankful for a family frenzy.

I’m thankful for the power of song setting things right again.

I’m thankful for having 37 different senses.

I’m thankful for quickly getting over no pants.

I’m thankful for more than just crazy shrine maidens, but they help.

I’m thankful for letting my darker side out, even when I don’t mean to.

I’m thankful for not being confused anymore, and yet still intrigued.

I’m thankful for evil villains that actually care about their subordinates.

I’m thankful for WASSHOI above all else.

Once again, I’m thankful for everyone that’s been involved with this blog in some way, directly or indirectly. I’m thankful for those that have stopped looking at this blog, and those who’ve only just begun. I’m thankful for bloggers and commenters that think more highly of me than I think of myself, and ones that won’t give me the time of day (but I will show them. :P). I’m thankful for knowing that this blog still can be even better than it has been, and not being satisfied for what has already been done. And I’m thankful that I don’t have to do this again till next year. 😛
