Greetings to everyone out there in the Fakku! community. I’ve been around for a while, leeched quite a few of the stuff and made a couple posts, but I only recently decided that I ought to introduce myself properly.
So, there you have it, the name’s Ranter (though Ran's fine as well), I’m 21, male and Greek, currently on my fourth (and last) year of university as well as of living alone away from home. I had my fair share of sports until I moved, namely football (soccer, for the Americans among us) and martial arts. Been a metal fan for as long as I can remember, since the first music I started with was System of a Down and Ice Earth. Now I’m currently obsessed with Scandinavian folk and Viking metal (Turisas, Eluveitie, Korpiklaani, Amon Amarth etc), but I still do like songs from different metal genres.
Other interests include, naturally, anime and manga, with a distinct preference for the romance and/or slice of life genre, with comedy and action coming close in second place. Apart from that, I find strategy games, both board and on PC, really intriguing and I also am a big fan of the Final Fantasy series (though I gladly welcome any RPG). Last, but not least, I’ve been a DnD player since v3.5 and me and my (more experienced in this field) friends have been trying to meet and play as much as possible.
I first heard about Fakku from a 4chan post about hentai sites. So, I came, I saw and then I came a couple times more (duh). It hit me that it wasn’t just a place to share pr0n but something more; a suspicion that became a reality after shuffling the forums for a while. In a relevant point, I owe to Fakku for introducing a totally new type of entertainment to me, the visual novels. The Act1 of KS was what got me started and right now I’m finishing up the HF route of F/SN and downloading Clannad. Now, as for the hentai, I sure am grateful for all the trouble you get through to find and even translate all the manga but in a slightly different way than usual since I’m more interested in collecting and reading the stories (especially those with a strong emotional side, see “Melt” by Cuvie and “The rain after the calm is like love” by Distance) though I admit of.. ermm… indulging.. to the pictures occasionally.
Anyways, I think that’d be enough of the boringly long and thorough introduction. I’m here and I plan to stay for as longer as I can and also take part in any discussions and polls I think I may have something to add. Let’s take good care of each other, shall we?
P.S. Since this is (similar to) an anime/manga community, I thought I should state my preferences with a small sample so you can get a better idea.
Favorite anime(s): Romeo x Juliet, Wolf and Spice, Elfen Lied, Ga-Rei Zero, Fullmetal Alchemist
Favorite manga(s): Genshiken, Vinland Saga, Medaka Box
Favorite hentai artist(s): Gunma Kisaragi, Yamatogawa, Naomi Nekomata
