Now, the typical response to the video may be that it is nothing that special but this goes WAY back with me. So...this was back in 4th grade (6 years ago) I was looking around my sister's computer without her permission and started looking at what was in his folder.
Now, if I was any older at the time, I would have greatly disappointed to see what she had but at the time, her folder was loaded with manga, music, AMVs, and games. To me, it was as if I found the Holy Grail.
When I opened up that AMV shown above, it was just pure sex to my ears. I have never heard J-pop before nor seen a AMV in my life. That video just gave me the best goosebumps of my life. When Serge and Kid hugged, I felt so happy, so excited (but I never admitted it till now in fear of getting cooties) Afterwords, I started becoming an avid listener of J-pop and began to get into anime and manga heavily.
However, that AMV was not the only awesome thing she had. I also found this:
That song also brought chills to my spine. Who knew that such awesome music and animation existed? This fueled my love for the Megaman X series even more and I then discovered my sister's Megaman X manga and read all of it for hours and hours.
As for J-pop, I did not tell my parents at the time because I was so scared that they would get angry at me for liking what I thought was rock n roll rather than classical music.
That was one of the best days of my life and the starting point of my life when I became a nerd rather than a jock like my parents wanted me to at the time.
Looking back now, I have to say that I am amazed to see how much change I saw. I believe that the Magaman X series is not that great (gameplay is fun but story is so painful that I sometimes want to stab myself with a knife and concentrate on the pain rather than the story) but I still love See-Saw with a passion.
Now, you can that that those songs are shit and the AMV as well, but remember that this is me at the age of 11.





Nice story though, you've certainly found more to your liking on your sister PC than I ever did on my brother's ... no I don't want to share
