fresh start

For the uninformed, the my online moniker technically goes by SilentJi (feel free to shorten that to Ji as you see if) and I'll be using this blog as a place to dump various thoughts. A vast bulk of it will likely focus on various otaku elements and an ever greater portion will probably center around mecha, so be on the watch for that (or not). Anyhow, despite nobody caring, I'll plaster some personal bits here. To heavily generalize things, while watching Gundam 0079 reruns on television as a kid, my parents haphazardly bought me Gunpla, thinking that they were action figures. It also didn't help much when I happened upon an old box of Super Famicom games and stumbled across SRW 3. Needless to say, I've been hooked ever since. I would like to consider myself having seen quite a bit of mecha series, but that's really a moot point, in the grander scheme of things. As alluded to before, I'm heavily into Gundam, but also grew up alongside both Getter and Macross, so I hold a special place in my heart for the two of those. In any case, with the recent boom of the mecha industry (comparatively, of course), I've found myself with an insatiable thirst for more, which isn't a bad thing, of course. In any case, keep along, as I try to break free from the Earth's gravity~
