Im still a newbie in the anime field. I've only watched a total of around 30 to 40 anime. And i see that the characters in the avatars used in ANN are either extremely cute or extremely cool. But i do not recoznize many of the characters. They are completely new to me. So i would like the members of ANN to help me. Please tell me the name of the character in your avatar and give a brief description of the anime in which they appear so i can watch those anime which suit my tastes. This is the best way for me to get a review of the anime i dont know. Thanks for your Co-op !

Mine features Narumi Takayuki and Suzumiya Haruka from everyone's favorite drama/romance/angst/hentai-game-based anime, Kimi ga Nozomu Eien. Cool

However, you might find it more helpful to check this thread, which has your exact same question about people's avatars, along with 9 pages of answers. If people aren't willing to answer it again, you can look at the replies on the other thread and then go to the ANN Encyclopedia entries for the animes that the people mention.

My avatar is Spike Speigel from Cowboy Bebop. He is the main character of the first (Of only two.) anime to ever make me cry. And that is not an easy task I assure you.^^

My avatar is from Fruits Basket anime. Tohru is the girl and she is holding Kyo in his catform. I think this is from episode 25-26... somewhere around the end of the series.

Say hello to Bonta-kun, the furry little soldier from Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu. His secret identity is in fact, Sagara Sousuke, everyone's favorite trigger-happy S.O.B.

To sum it up, FMP is one of the best series I've seen in years - don't miss it.

My avatar is, as always, "Oji-san" ("Uncle") from Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou, the One True Manga. He is the veritable salt of the Earth, and he stands in loco parentis to the main character, Alpha.

Very soon now, Alpha is going to have to come to terms with the loss of her father-figure -- the manga has been foreshadowing Oji-san's death for a while now. When it happens, it is going to hit the fans of YKK very hard indeed.

This red-headed cutie is Abarai Renji from Bleach. He's my favorite character from that show, and I decided to make him as my avatar (for now, atleast). I love the way they portrayed his attitude in the show, and how much loyalty he has to one of his closest friends, and I love how bad arse he looks. Laughing

Before, I used characters from Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children and from Fullmetal Alchemist, Anime dazed I'm so indecisive when it comes to my avatar.

Yes this thread is familiar if you've followed the link present in Zalis116's post.
But as far as reposting if you change your avatar goes. You're welcome anytime.
