Report Airsaber's Profile

Night owl, wannabe pilot, wannabe cyborg. Can't live without music, something to read, and lots of sleep. I like playing video/computer/tabletop games. I love airplanes, gliders, everything that has something to do with flying. I draw, write, build model kits, translate Transformers comics for fun.

I like mecha/cyborg/robot-related stuff - e.g. Gundamverse (especially UC), Transformers (especially IDW Transformers; sadly, I can't add my favourite character here on MAL), Gunnm/Battle Angel Alita, various versions of Ghost in the Shell... the list is long - and every flavour of fantasy/SF in general.

I collect action figures and model kits, mostly robots and kick-ass girls (these tend to overlap). I've also started collecting polyhedral dice.

My other interests include transhumanism, astronomy, culturology/ethnology/anthropology, biology, worldbuilding/conworlding, and more. I have too many hobbies, and I'm the type of person who's curious about everything, who gets easily pulled in by wiki walks (though not only on Wikipedia per se), and whose head is stuffed with interesting but mostly useless bits of trivia.

My favourite characters are usually reserved kickass intellectuals and/or non-humans/post-humans.

I find weird things funny.

While I'm not exactly the nostalgic type, I freely admit that some of my choices of MAL favourites are at least partially driven by nostalgia.

If you felt like reading all of this - congratulations! Did you know that while mantis shrimps have absurdly complex eyes - 12~16 types of photoreceptors when compared with measly three (or, very rarely, four) types found in human eyes - it doesn't seem like they see a breathtakingly colourful world?
