Chikorita157’s Anime Blog First Reader Survey

February 28, 2011 by chikorita157 1 Comment

Since I have passed my second year milestone, it might be a good idea to have a reader survey to get some feedback on what I should improve in my third year of blogging. This survey will also give some Anime Interest questions. They are added to give me a good idea of the demographics of my readers. The survey is completely confidential and all the questions are completely optional. However, it’s in your best interest to answer all the questions

The survey is here and it will be open until March 15th.

Some people took it a step further and think that Kyubey is the devil, thus creating intensive hate.
