   I must say that is quite a bit of anime on the basis that this is dated from March 2006. My anime watching days started like WAY back in 2002 so I dread to think of how much I’ve actually watched. Though for me, I was burning on CDs before DVDs but it took me nearly a month to transfer well over 500 CDs to DVDs, so it’d probably take me nearly 2 weeks to remember if I watched something or not.

   Hahaha, I’m laughing my ass off right here, man.

   I mean, lots of people have lists like these. But… your format… oh man it’s gold!

   In all honesty, your list is much cleaner than mine, though. Using the series title as the info link is a great idea, and using properly-spaced td tags (as opposed to my adjustments using blank columns…) is definitely a plus. Basically, you pwn me.

   Speaking of lists, I need to transfer the contents of my post-it note on 2007’s to-date watches to my list. I also need to finish my re-rating and re-info-ing. Fuck ANN!!

   @ Adun: Admittedly, I skewed that statement a bit. When I say from March, what I REALLY mean is all the anime I had on my computer at that time and any CDs I had lying around (which were quite a few). I also grabbed a lot of stuff off of my friends. So all in all I’d say the list goes back another 4-6 months.

   On an unrelated note, I tried commenting on your blog and I keep getting a validation error =(

   @ lolikit: I knew I got the idea from someone, I just couldn’t pinpoint who it was XD

   My format is weaksauce, though using properly spaced columns did help cut down the repetition. I was seriously contemplating the theft of your ‘jump to __ letter’ but decided it would be morally wrong.

   …okay I lie, it just looked like too much work to implement T_T

   It’s fairly trivial, and if you want the functionality but are too lazy to c+p (idiot) I can put it in myself. ^^

   Pfft… you call that an anime database? It’s not really a database unless you rate each and every single anime on at least two dozen factors in MySQL. ;)

   Seriously though, looking over that list, you’ve got good taste.

   Suge! What a nice list. I’ve seen a couple of anime lists, and they’re all so long and pretty xD These are all that you’ve watched, ka? Not ones that one own…Like legally? xD

   @ lolikit: Haha, thanks for the offer, but I think it’ll be fine as is until the list grows significantly larger.

   @ Nic: That would be awesome…but I’m not looking to rival anfo or ann, most of the ratings were rough estimates, as much time has passed since their initial ratings.

   Thanks for the compliment on taste, though much of that list is comprised of harem/harem-esque anime XD

   @ Whispered Hope: Make your own =D It’s a fun way to waste a couple hours.

   And yes these are only the anime I’ve watched via fansub, as much as I wish those were all official DVDs, I can’t imagine the amount of debt I’d be in if that were the case T_T

   @ Shirukki:

   I didn’t know where else to post this comment, so I’m gonna leave it here…….

   While the new site design is nice, you seriously need to change the wallpaper/background…..it’s hard on the eyes after a while…a darker colour would probably do the trick….

   but hey, it’s your site :)…..Just a suggestion from a fan of your blogs :)

   P.S. New Kanon episode less than 48 hrs away…..wooooot! :)

   There’s always anidb for the lazy. It’s supposed to auto-catalog all your files, so all you need to do is to put the discs into your drive, and it’ll do all the identification.

   It has other interesting features like tracking deleted episodes, noting if the episodes are on disc or drive, etc.

   However, it has some drawbacks – for some reason, when you first start, it downloads a huge (100mb+) cache of (probably all known) anime, so it takes a while to load. Also, as easy as it is to insert discs for identification, it’s still a chore…

    @ Kanon_fan82: Haha, thanks, I know the background is a little straining on the eyes, I’ll try and think of a color that flows with the site and is easy on the eyes as well.

    Yay Kanon <3 …I cheated and watched the RAW XD

    @ bakavic: That sounds pretty nice, I wish I had known that during my organization.

    However, the problem isn’t how well my anime is tagged and sorted on comp, I’m really meticulous with that. It’s the physical disc library that’s getting out of hand. I’ve got around 200 anime backup DVDs, I needed to keep track of what was burned and what wasn’t.

    This list combined with a labeling system I put into effect really helps. This obsessive compulsive organization was bred from a few times where I accidentally deleted anime I hadn’t archived yet (most painfully: PoT, 178 episodes T_T)

    Hee, maybe I should make one, but CCS is not my forte xD Hee, well, that’s okay. I don’t own half of the anime I watch legally, either xD Do you own even one DVD of them, or none at all?

    Haha, it’s not that hard to make one, just use a really repetitive table format like mine XD Sure you have to copy and paste it numerous times, leading to wrist cramps, but it’s easy ^^

    As for anime DVDs, compared to what I’ve watched, I own very little, but I do own a few. And I plan to add the Haruhi DVDs to that collection quite soon *eagerly awaits May 29*

    I’m more interested in buying manga, seeing as I have this odd hate of reading manga off a screen (ie. scanlations) unless it’s exceptionally good.
