Wow has it already been that long? Another Valentines day has already come? I feel like it was just yesterday we were doing our Valentines day special. Time flies. I wanted to wish everyone a Happy Valentines day whether you’re spending it with your loved one, friends, or even having a nice evening relaxing by yourself. I also wanted to show my appreciation to everyone who has made it possible for Anime Anthology to be such a big success. A much bigger success than I ever thought possible.

When I first started this website I never imagined I would get the feedback that I do. I was so happy even getting fifty people to visit my site daily. Even if they just happened to stumble upon it during a random Google search. This website has been running for over two years now and I couldn’t be happier. Now we’ve had a stable 600+ hits daily and over a million pageviews. It was YOU guys who made this all possible. You are the reason we write reviews, watch the good and bad, and motivated to create quality work. Each and every one of your comments has filled my heart with joy whether it be negative or positive. It makes me happy knowing that someone out there is at least taking the time to write us something. I also want to give a special thanks to a few select people I’ve met over the past couple years.

First and foremost my writing staff Chidori3souske and Hikaru. You two have been a great help to me and make me feel like this website is actually heading somewhere. I couldn’t believe it when you two showed interest in writing for AA. Chidori3souske has been with me for quite a long time now and has provided me a lot of new ideas that you see implemented today, and continuing to help me with her posts and brainstorming. She has been a great help to me and I wish to thank her properly for all her hard work. Thank you Chidori3souske for everything you have done for me and continue to do for me.
When I first saw Hikaru’s email applying as a writer to AA I couldn’t believe it. I remember going out and celebrating with my friends that someone actually thought my tiny site was worth writing for. Even though she has a very busy schedule she has always found the time to write for AA. Thank you Hikaru, I’m sure Chidori3souske agrees that you are truly an amazing person for joining our staff. I guess I shouldn’t call it “my site” anymore as we have each grown together to form “our site”.

LOLDSFAN/Dr. Scarecrow. You have both been extremely loyal readers and active members of the website back when we only had 10 or so reviews up. You stuck with us through every change we have ever had. You have even provided brilliant feedback to how the website is run today. It is an audience like you that make this all worth while.

My graphic designer and good friend Chrissy Noble has helped design, re-design, fix, and support me through all the layout changes I’ve made. Honestly, I don’t know why she stuck with me so long with my stubborn attitude and horrible sense of art. Either way, you have been a great help. Thank you.

Finally I would like to thank Feal87 of EmptyBlue and Anti-Social Geniuses for referring to my website. To think that other people actually wanted to spread my website for its quality is hard to comprehend. You have been an active commenters and a great help.

Thank you all from the bottom of my heart. I find it appropriate to feel such love on a special day. HAPPY VALENTINES!
