About This Blog

Chikorita157’s Anime Blog is a personal Anime Blog, which I started back in February 2009 when I decided to blog about Anime. Although I have watched Anime for over 10 years, this is my first serious effort in maintaining a site dedicated to Anime.

On this blog, I share my thoughts on what I’m currently watching and share my overall thoughts. Also, I write various editorials and features focusing on the fandom, personal experiences and analyzing certain aspects of shows I want to write more about.

As for the theme, I used the Genesis Framework to start and build from there and for graphics, I use Adobe Photoshop. It’s all hosted on a Virtual Private Server running Ubuntu, which I manage located in Los Angeles.

About the author

This is not a current photo… but to show as poof that I’m real.

Chikorita157 (real name: James) is American Born Chinese that attends New Jersey Institute of Technology and majors in Management Information Systems. In 2013, I’m starting my graduate studies on IT Administration. During my free time, I spend my time lurking on the Internet, playing video games, programming and learn Japanese.

For the shows I prefer, I mostly watch slice of life, comedy and romance. However, I will watch anything as long it’s not shouen action (e.g.: Naruto) or mecha and doesn’t have too much fanservice, it’s fine. My current favorite anime are Clannad (both seasons), Kanon, Suzumiya Haruhi (First Season), AIR, K-ON, Madoka Magica, and The Idolmaster. There are also shows that is worth mentioning, but not my favorites such as Tantei Opera Milky Holmes and Ikoku Meiro no Croisèe.
