ghostlightning is from manila and goes to tv tropes mostly for the anime and manga information. started liking anime from watching choudenji voltes v, tossho daimos, mazinger z but fell in love with anime after watching macross.
maintained love for anime despite graduating with a degree in literature, upped his nerd-cred by doing a postcolonial reading of tolkien's "the silmarillion" ("where in the world is middle-earth?").
re-discovered '90s classics nearly a decade too late (evangelion, cowboy bebop, escaflowne), and is currently immensely enjoying contemporary titles including but not limited to:
- tenggen toppa gurren lagann
- code geass
- macross frontier (current favorite)
- gundam 00 (the first gundam title i enjoyed, i don't like the rest)
- suzumiya haruhi no yuutsu
- hachimitsu to clover
- school rumble
