Welcome to Gaia! ::

We all know the reason you came here is because you love anime characters that fight.

Inspired by the Super Smash Brothers Brawl that seems to be all the rave, I decided to make a guild for fans who like similar things.

In this thread, you get to brag about just how much you love them.

***************************************************************

For myself, empress dee, I am a huge fan of both the King of Fighters and Dragonball Z.

Terry Bogard is whom I call my wolf for the many dreams that I have had about him.

Dragonball Z I love for its secret educational benefits. The creator of this show might not have been aware of it, or even intending it, but its there. A good teaching on Divine rights.

I do enjoy other fighting related things like beyblade for the sport that it has become, the Legend of Zelda because who doesn't like a kid who can wield a sword better than a professional knight, sailor moon for the magical side to fighting, Seint Saiya (Knights of the Zodiac) for the elemental fighting, Pokemon because of educational benefits, digimon for cuteness, and the entirety of the Yu-gi-Oh series because of the educational benefits.

Yes, no one would suspect that you actually learn something valuable, but you do. Yu-Gi-Oh monster dueling teaches you how to read, make decisions, learn math, and history based on certain cultures.

The reading comes from how to use the cards to their utmost potential. Making decisions is which card to use at which time. Math skills come into play with the life points, with how to defeat the opponent using the greater than and less than component in school. And it is stooped knee deep or more in history.

Each card has a history to it.

Take the celtic guardian. This creature is based upon the myth about elves knowing how to fight (like Link from the Legend of Zelda). The Celtics were a band of Irish fighters. The reason why Ireland is famous for its fiesty people is because of the Celtics.

Okay, if you think that's just coincidence, then take a look at...the Winged Dragon of Ra. This mixes the beliefs of Egypt and Japan for superior noble creatures.

Ra was known as the Egyptian Sun god. This is why the dragon is colored gold like the sun and why the card is an "Egyptian God Card".

Dragons were noble creatures in the Orient. They symbolized luck and loyalty, ultimate security for some, and lets face it... dragons do have their cute side.

You still don't believe me? A third card would convince you?

Harpie Ladies. Based on myth mostly, but these winged creatures were supposedly guardians of the trees in the middle ages. It also bases the belief on cross breeding humans with birds.

I guess this is the place we're suppose to post when we want to join...?

Anyways, I want to join because I like most of the anime characters that you had listed and that I really need a guild right now.
