Ahh anime crushes. Yes crushes, as in more than one. I’m an expert when it comes to anime waifus. I believe, no, I know have a superior eagle eye when it comes to spotting a good series waifu. So, how many waifus do I have? A lot (sadly). I won’t go over all of them, as I have to […]
Ahh anime crushes. Yes crushes, as in more than one. I’m an expert when it comes to anime waifus. I believe, no, I know have a superior eagle eye when it comes to spotting a good series waifu. So, how many waifus do I have?
A lot (sadly). I won’t go over all of them, as I have to get ready for work soon, so I’m just going to focus on my first four anime crushes from my childhood: Sabrina from Pokemon, Hotaru Tomoe and Ami Mizuno from Sailor Moon, and Washu from Tenchi Muyo.
Sabrina
Sabrina is pretty damn interesting. As a kid, I loved that she has some cool ass psychic powers; a trait that set her apart from the rest of the gym leaders. There was also that stern, cruel, almost sadistic look she had on her face throughout her arc that I really like. She also had a whip and called herself the Mistress of Psychic Pokemon…alright so that may explain a few things about myself that I probably should not had posted here.
Also her laugh was cute:
Hotaru Tomoe/Sailor Saturn
Worse girl
Me having a fictional crush on Hotaru as a kid may had been the first sign that I low high-key would have a thing for quiet, “creepy” and “weird” girls.
Also as Saturn, I love her cold, serious look – incredibly opposite from her civilian personality.
Ami Mizuno/Sailor Mercury
Sailor Mercury may had been the first sign that I’d high-key have a thing for dorky, bookworm computer nerd girls.
Washu
While I’m on the subject of smart, nerdy girls, Washu is the best. My number one favorite thing about her besides her smarts, was how incredibly cocky and prideful she was towards herself. This woman even created two puppets modeled after her that would celebrate her genius each time she did something amazing (that some shit I would do).
There’s also this infamous scene from the OVA that solidifed her waifu status for me:
So fellow weeaboos, who’re your anime crushes? Feel free to comment in the comment sections below!
I write about why you should have a greater appreciation for wacky Japanese cartoons and the otaku culture revolving around it.
I also co-host a Black Nerd Empowerment podcast with my friend The TV Guru over at http://swarthynerd.libsyn.com/ and create off-color memes about crap tier anime over at https://www.facebook.com/yukithesnowman/
