A Love For Anime and Manga

There is a lilt to their eyes, a sassy to their attitude. They know themselves well, drawn in living color. Alive, dancing through their day, being admired greatly. Characters who are not afraid to be themselves. A trusty funny sidekick always building up the heroine Who falls in love with the prince who is pretending to be regular. Wanting her for her love of his soul, not for her love of money. Their hair has a certain dash and flair not found in other drawings. Their eyes have the little white circles enhancing their black centers. There is a certain way they have to be drawn, a pattern, approved. Their clothes are always pretty much the same. How do they do it? How do they manage to make lines turn into a fantastical reality? With just a few lines, the animator has thrown me into a new world. A place to escape from my troubles, woes, and humdrum stuff. For a little bit I am dancing and prancing through my hero's eyes, In her body, or his, doing what I have always imagined doing. This escape is like meditation for others, maybe prayer even. I am in the throes of the escapade, and cannot hear my family. My friends know not to try and get my attention. I am in the zone. Anime and manga both intrigue and uplift my soul daily.
