Hi there, everyone! I'm arcobaleno! (my username means "rainbow" in Italian (at least according to google translate XD)). My real name is Ryan, so you can also call me that too if you want! n.n

My nickname is pretty much just arco, haha. Any new ones would also be really cool!

I'm pretty doofy and horrid at introductions, so I'm just going to totally talk until my lungs fall out! (Or would it be "type until my fingers fall off"... hmm)

Neo Queen Serenity had lots of good ideas in her intro thread suggestions thread, so woo, I shall snatch them up! :3

I discovered Sailor Moon in an interesting way; way way back in 2005, I was browsing on YouTube and found an AMV of Mermaid Melody (my obsession at the time) that used "Kaze mo Sora mo, Kitto" in it. I really loved the song, so I plopped it into YT's search bar and found the ending animation from Sailor Stars.

After that, I somehow stumbled on PGSM, the live action! I watched all the episodes I could find and fell madly in love with it. Then I came across the anime, and my love for Sailor Moon was completely cemented.

My favorite senshi is Minako, in all her forms. I've loved her character throughout the anime, manga, live action and even the musicals.

Between the different forms of Sailor Moon, I'd have to say the manga is definitely my favorite. It's so moving in so many ways. But I also love the anime for it's humour!

The musicals, though. Holy wow they are awesome. Especially Nao. I NEED MOAR NAO NOW.

*ahem*

I found GC through Miss Dream's website. (Elly rocks, seriously.)

I was browsing on there today, when I scrolled down and saw all the links. I love interacting with people, so when I saw "Galaxy Cauldron Forums" I immediately clicked on the link and pretty much fell in love with this whole place.

My favorite hobbies are singing, drawing, dancing to music and generally having fun. I usually spend most of my day stalking the forums I'm on and chatting with my friends. When I draw, I either do it in my drawing sketchbook or I color coloring photos in Photoshop (totally fun).

I love all animals, but I'm really, really partial to dogs. Pugs, golden retrievers, welsh corgis and basically all dogs (including Rotties!) are my favorites.

Besides Sailor Moon, my main other favorite anime is Azumanga Daioh! I also love anime and manga like Cardcaptor Sakura, Fruits Basket and Ouran High School Host Club.

Also, I love Pokemon. I had to say that after randomly spotting the Pokemon Mafia while typing this XD

Ah, talents! I don't really know if I have any per say n.n;, but I've been learning Japanese for over 4 and a half years. I can understand a good amount of it, but ironically, my translating skills are horrid.

My favorite colors are sky blue, gold, orange and most pastel colors, though I love every color.

I love in Corning, New York, which is a more unknown town. It's like a rural town and metropolis smashed together, with interesting results, haha. A nice place, but I hafta say it's kinda boring just having one place to do anything interesting at (the Museum of Glass).

Me and my parents are planning on relocating to Rochester either later this year or the next

I'm 16 years old, going on 17 in.... 5 months (does that count, I'm wondering now XD), but I still haven't quite learned the meaning of "grown up" yet

I'm also the boyfriend to one of the most amazing, strongest and kindest girls on the planet. She's truly the love of my life~ <3

Ah, my pet peeves are people that just plain don't respect you. There's nothing more peeving to me than a person that doesn't treat people (and animals) without respect or kindness.




Ah ha, wow. "Horrid at introductions", indeed!

The whole story of my life, that was.

Anyway, I really am so happy to meet all of you guys! I hope we'll all get along~
