Silvachief over at The Geek Clinic asked me to answer some questions over at his blog. He also gave his own answers here. I like how these questions can be answered succinctly and with little effort. I consider them basic questions for any anime fan.
So what are the questions, you ask…?
![[gg]_Hyouka_-_02 eru i'm curious](https://fantasticmemes.files.wordpress.com/2013/08/gg_hyouka_-_02-eru-im-curious.png)
1. When was the last time you went to a store containing anime?
2. Do you usually watch anime online? On what website?
3. First Japanese word you learned from an anime?
4. Best animation style in your opinion?
5. Best anime pet?
6. What is the longest anime you’ve ever watched?
7. What is the shortest anime you’ve ever watched?
8. What is your favorite anime couple?
Feel free to leave your own answers to these questions in the comments, by the way.
(Apparently, this is part of some blog event called “Inspector Green” or whatever, and I’m supposed to tag three bloggers who must answer the same questions. I nominate three young bloggers: Sir Calvin, Novasylum, and miharusshi. Here’s to a great year of blogging for you three!)
Frog-kun's Blog 
I see what you did there >:)
Thanks for the tag, frog-kun!
Also, Slaine as best anime pet? Hidoi ne.
But don’t you just want to tie a collar around his neck and feed him your dinner scraps too?
I’d be amused if he were my personal slave.
SLAinE as SLAvE
I’m really embarrassed, but from which anime is the last pic? I feel like I know it, but it doesn’t occur to me… Gomen nasai, frog-kun!!!
It’s from Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou
Thank’s a bunch, now it’s on my plan to watch list :)
1. When was the last time you went to a store containing anime?
unfortunately, in my country there isn’t any store (At least that I know) that have any type of anime content.
2. Do you usually watch anime online? On what website?
Nope, never. I download it always, at first from latin fansubs but now I download it from HorribleSubs torrent page.
3. First Japanese word you learned from an anime?
I guess it would be… Ohayo (I guess that’s how is written), I like scholastic anime.
4. Best animation style in your opinion?
Aniplex/Ufotable (Fate/Zero)
5. Best anime pet?
I don’t know which character could be actually considered a pet, but Slaine!? poor Slaine, PD: Still haven’t watched the 1st chapter of 2nd season.
6. What is the longest anime you’ve ever watched?
InuYasha, still lovin’ it.
7. What is the shortest anime you’ve ever watched?
Zankyou no Terror (Just 10 Episodes, still awesome)
8. What is your favorite anime couple?
Sorata x Mashiro
Kinji x Riko (Hidan no Aria)
Okabe Rintarou x Makise Kurisu (Steins;Gate)
:) Guess those are basically my answers.
I’m really dumb but… what do you mean by “scholastic” anime?
Hmm… guess it’s only called that way in this side of the world, or maybe I just chose the wrong word.
Well, in spanish the actual word is: “Escolar” what we mean with that word is a genre of anime in which the plot is developed in school or the school plays an important roll in the storyboard.
Oregairu
Hidan no Aria
Amagami
Angel Beats
Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu
Clannad…
Hope that’s enough for reference :)
Perhaps in English that anime genre is called in a different way, I wasn’t sure so I translated the word from spanish literally.
And about the word… I guess that it was the first word I learned because most animes that includes than genre starts with the MC walking with his friends to school or something like that and that’s the first thing you hear.
Ahh, I get what it means now. Usually, I see anime set in a school referred to as “school-based anime”.
Cool Spanish lesson! Your username made me think your first language was German, not Spanish, though :P
Yeah, well, the username… is a long story, つまり, I like German :)
These are fun questions.
1) Today, and I bought Michiko & Hatchin on DVD
2) Occasionally on Crunchyroll
3) probably one of GATTAI, HASSHIN, IKIMASU, RYUSHIHOU or TEKI NO MOBIRU SUIT
4) hyper 90s silly faces e.g. slayers
5) Rei Ayanami
6) The first 3/4 of LOGH, followed by Turn A, Eureka 7 and Utena
7) Blazing Transfer Student
8) Ryusei x Valsione
>Rei Ayanami

[…] Frog-kun over at Fantastic Memes […]
Many laughs were had. Great answers Froggy!
I have no idea which anime that couple are from though >.< Though there's a fair chance that was a joke, I suppose.
Glad you liked my answers. Btw, the “couple” is from Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou.
Awesome. That’s been on my list for a while ^_^

7. No idea, an ova or something
8. I like oreki x eru and lelouch x CC … I dont think I know any good resolved couples Oo
No wait, I like senjougahara and araragi
So many people saying they learned ‘baka’ from anime. It really speaks about our generation.
Out of curiosity, do you still watch a lot of harems with tsunderes?
Well, I don’t go out looking for them but if one comes my way I don’t mind watching it.
[…] No, they’re not as threatening as they sound. In fact, I was delighted to know that frog-kun of Fantastic Memes tagged me (with Novasylum of Paragraph Plague and SirCalvin of On The Move) to respond to the same set of […]

I can’t with you, Frog-kun! :O Naughty!! Anyway here’s my answers since I was tagged. XD https://nendoroidcuties.wordpress.com/2015/01/14/inspector-green-tag-%E3%80%8C%E3%83%9A%E3%83%83%E3%83%91%E3%83%BC%E8%AD%A6%E9%83%A8%E3%82%88%E3%80%8D/

8. Way…way too many to list. But one of my fav is Araragi x Senjou. And that danshi kokosei ‘pairing’ lol.
Puff…
1. Store?… Never. Anime is not a common thing in Vietnam, you know?
2. Anime couple?… Never think of it.
3. Pet? I would take Lelouch as the black cat, and Light as the white one.
4. Style?… I guess something with contrast of light and dark, but not too gloomy like M3 the Dark Metal. A mid-90s person, in short.
5. Longest?… D.Gray-man.
… Why haven’t you asked which character does the reader hate most?
“Why haven’t you asked which character does the reader hate most?”
I wasn’t the one who decided the questions. But that’s still a good question nonetheless. Which character DO you hate the most?
1. When was the last time you went to a store containing anime?
Nevereverververnononono-
2. Do you usually watch anime online? On what website?
Usually with Crunchyroll or Hulu- but I only have a Crunchyroll membership.
3. First Japanese word you learned from an anime?
Probably either “taiyou”, “kattobing”, or “kibo-ou”- My first anime were Yugioh 5Ds and Zexal.
4. Best animation style in your opinion?
Ufotable and the Fate/___ series. Aldnoah’s pretty close, though.
5. Best anime pet?
(STOP TORTURING SLAINE) It’d have to be Hawk. That is the best pig ever.
6. What is the longest anime you’ve ever watched?
Yugioh GX, with a whopping 200-something episodes.
7. What is the shortest anime you’ve ever watched?
Boku no Pico- End of discussion. We don’t discuss that here.

Izaya and Shizuo. It just seems so cute that they’re in their 20s but still chase each other like little kids.

FROG WHAT IS THIS WHAT ARE YOU DOING WORST POST EVER

[…] at what to do when I finally opened up my blank draft document. Frog-kun decided to respond with pictures. iblessall penned his in poetry, and whemleh wrote a freaking fan-fic. I confessed to whemleh […]
Just putting this out there….. Avatar: The Last Airbender is NOT an anime. I adore that series with all my heart but ‘anime’ is Japanese Animation. Avatar was produced, written, directed and animated in America by Nickelodeon. I know a lot of people who think it is and understandably so since they did take on the anime style when creating the show, but it’s not anime.
