I got into Last Exile relatively late while looking for steampunk series (though apparently it's actually dieselpunk instead orz). I didn't like it too much at first, but I stuck with it for the setting and Murata Range designs, and then it grew and grew on me until it became one of my favourite series. ^^;
I love the vanships and huge battleships; I seriously don't think I've ever seen anyhing as epic as the aerial battles in Fam. And I've watched Mobile Suit Gundam SEED and part of Destiny too.If I had to choose favourite characters, then I'd probably say Lucciola for the first season and Tatiana for the second, because she got so much cooler. It's actually a bit difficult since there are so many likeable characters! Coupling-wise, like most people, I like Dio/Lucciola, and perhaps like fewer, Tatiana/Alis as well. But I don't mind other couplings either.
For anime, aside from Last Exile, I like Mashimo Kouichi's original works, Haibane Renmei, Fate/Zero (but dislike Stay/Night), Puella Magi Madoka Magica, Black Rock Shooter, CANAAN, the second season of Kuroshitsuji, and Sato Junichi's healing anime, among others. I enjoy listening to hard rock, screamo, heavy metal, and anything composed by Kajiura Yuki. I play the occasional round of FFXIII and FFXIII-2 with my sister, and am eagerly awaiting the November release of Lightning Returns. ...I think that's about
it.
