A quick meme response
Day Eight of the fandom meme is:
H: Do you prefer live action TV shows or animated TV shows?
I think it's fairly obvious that, with two notable exceptions (Avatar: The Last Airbender, and Daria), my TV preferences lie in live action TV. There's not any real reason for this, and I do watch the odd animated TV series, but I'm not naturally drawn to them, and I seem to take more chances on new-to-me live action TV shows than I do with animated ones.
Those of you who do lean more towards animated TV shows, what do you like most about the medium?
I: Has online caused you to stop liking any fandoms, if so, which and why?
J: Name a fandom you didn’t care/think about until you saw it all over the internet.
K: What character has your favorite development arc/the best development arc?
L: Say something genuinely nice about a character who isn’t one of your faves.
M: Name a character that you’d like to have for a friend.
N: Name three things you wish you saw more or in your main fandom (or a fandom of choice).
O: Choose a song at random, what ship does it remind you of?
P: Invent a random AU for any fandom (we always need more ideas).
Q: A fandom you’ve abandoned and why.
R: Which friendship/platonic relationship is your favorite in fandom?
S: Show us an example of your personal headcanon.
T: Do you have any hard and fast headcanons that you will die defending?
U: Three favorite characters from three different fandoms, and why they’re your favorites.
V: Which character do you relate to most?
W: A trope which you are virtually certain to hate in any fandom.
X: A trope which you are almost certain to love in any fandom.
Y: What are your secondhand fandoms (i.e., fandoms you aren’t in personally but are tangentially familiar with because your friends/people on your dash are in them)?
Z: Just ramble about something fan-related, go go go!

In terms of the Grimm, I've been thinking about this since I read some Phillip Pullman essays a couple of months ago. He was talking about characterization in folk tales/fairy tales, and it made me think that in some ways (though I wouldn't stretch this too far) manga/anime characters share some commonalities, in terms of their archetype-ness, with those in fairy/folk tales. (For example, there's often not a lot of time spent on psychological depth, to make them "real people" that we would identify with.) Again, this is a very broad generalization and there are examples where there isn't the case. But it's something I've noticed.
