Hey, everybody! Happy Thanksgiving!
You know what that means. . . I’ve been blogging as the Duct Tape Alchemist for a whole freaking year now! Isn’t that incredible? And, man, a lot has happened since that first post:
- I wrote 67,795 words of fanfiction
- I lived in Europe for 4 months
- I founded an anime club with over 30 registered members
- I sold out and joined Twitter
- I nearly was killed by 4 animals and a flipping jetski
- I went to my first anime convention. And my second.
- I wore my hair both longer and shorter than ever before
And that’s just me. the world itself has changed a lot since last year. But I won’t get in to all that. Instead, I’m going to revisit my very first (real) post. Doesn’t that sound like fun?
Well, you could be a touch more enthusiastic. This is my special day, ok?
The Top Ten Sexiest Anime Men: 2009 Edition
1. Cho Hakkai from Saiyuki: Clearly the winner this year, Hakkai is everything a woman like me could want in a bishie. He’s tall, smart, tortured, scarred, and really flipping hot! Not to mention the fact that he has a dragon that transforms into a jeep. . .
2. Roy Mustang from FullMetal Alchemist: Still in second place from last year, Roy’s manipulative nature and undeniable charm make him a strong competitor this year as well. Not to mention the fact that he is my Anime Club designation. . .
3. Seto Kaiba from Yu-Gi-Oh: A dark horse this year, Kaiba has emerged near the top in spite of his being a complete jerk. I can’t help it. I love him in all his pouty, rich-boy glory. Not to mention his dragon fetish. . .
4. Ginko from Mushi-Shi: Down in popularity from last year, Ginko just slides into the top few slots by virtue of his indifferent attitude, passion for the supernatural, and pretty green eyes.
5. Asato Tzusuki from Descendants of Darkness: Another return canditate from last year, this bisexual bishie continues to pull out the stops with his kind violet eyes and incredible power.
6. Kyoya Ootori from Ouran High School Host Club: Still a handsome manipulator with a kind heart, just like most of the men on this list, Kyoya is still one of my favorite for his complexity.
7. Seiji Mido from Moonphase: A new face this year, he’s a psychic with incredible spiritual powers and shiny long hair. Not to mention, he’s really cool. . . <sigh>
8. Keisei Tagami from Shikabane Hime: A contracted priest, loyal older brother, caring friend, and barely-closet pervert, Keisei is a man’s man and a woman’s bishie.
9.Sesshomaru from Inuyasha: Barely missing out on the list last year, this is one demon who belongs among the hottest bishies. His indifference and mad fighting skills (not to mention his fluffy) are the stuff of introverted fangirls’ dreams.
10. L from Death Note: Again, he’s not really a bishie, but there’s just something about him that just makes me go crazy. Probably because he’s a genius.
Well, that’s it for today, y’all. I’m gonna go eat some dumplings now, so have a happy thanksgiving break and I’ll post again soon.
