    Yeah, decided to jump the bandwagon. Hope you guys don't mind, haha! |D However, instead of 30 days of Gaming (because most will be Symphonia), I'm going to do the 30 Days of Fandom meme, in which case the fandom will be none other than Tales of Symphonia. I tried doing this with PokeSupe on Livejournal, but I didn't get far, heh. Hopefully I'll be able to go through with this all the way. Now, let us begin.

    30 DAYS OF SYMPHONIA DAY 1: FAVORITE CHARACTER [SPOILERS IF YOU'RE DERK. YADDAYADDABOOM.]

    Mithos Yggdrasil

    I think most of you know this by now, if you've been paying attention to the themes I've had lately. Mithos is my favorite character in Tales of Symphonia, and overall my favorite antagonist (Sync from Tales of the Abyss would have to be second, I guess). Though, he didn't start as my favorite character (It was Lloyd, then Zelos, then Lloyd, and now Mithos) but he went from being a character that I liked to one that I simply adored. And it's all thanks to a video I watched, and what I did afterwords.

    Other than him just simply being adorable, Mithos isn't a full on antagonist, which is what I like about him. Instead, he's a fallen Protagonist, who simply misunderstood and twisted the last words of his dear sister, whom was everything to him (and when I mean everything, I truly mean everything). Also, it's not like what he was doing was for a bad cause. He just simply wanted to get rid of discrimination, and was just going the wrong way about it (a terribly wrong way, but a wrong way regardless). He wasn't lying when he said to Lloyd that "what he was doing was the same thing", because in a way... it was. Lloyd was just choosing a different, and much better tactic.

    I do like in-game twisted understood Mithos. However, what really got me to love him was Tales of Fandom II, when I watched the flashbacks with Mithos, Yuan, and Martel. Mithos was simply adorable, though he was definitely fragile. It's a no wonder he went down the path he went after his only full-on support (Kratos was a Human, and Yuan and him didn't get along too well) had died.

    There's just sooo much more I can say, but this'll do. :]

    (Second favorite would be Lloyd because... he's Lloyd, and third would be Zelos with Genis being a close forth. I know a lot of people outside of Japan don't like Zelos, and I think they just don't give him a chance. They see him on the surface and jump the fun, saying 'I don't like him' and choose Kratos before they really get to know Zelos. But... that's just my opinion).

    Rest of the Questions:

    @Logie: I know right? Can't wait to do those!
