Hi ! I'm Rei, I created ACDB.

I've always been a fan of anime and computers. A few years back, I had quite the image collection, and had seen frequently images online that made me wonder "who's this character" and "where are they from". So in April of 2006, I got the idea to make a visual search engine of animated characters. Realizing most characters I couldn't easily identify were more often from Japanese games - I started there. Indexed a thousand characters by eye color, hair color, gender, hair length, age and animal ears ( because I also wanted the most complete collection of mimikko characters ) from a few hundred games, wrote a little PHP MySQL HTML code, registered a domain, rented a server and poof ! animecharactersdatabase.com was born. xD

Since then, I've taught myself a great deal, and constantly put my skills to the test pursuing greater and greater projects .

=== Interests ===

I have a great deal of interests. Most of them are quite esoteric.

Philosophy
I've quite the analytical mind, I do enjoy pondering a great many things.

Psychology
Mainly an interest in cognitive psychology.

Politics
I watch a bit of all the news channels every. I do have empathy for humanity. Can you believe that alone is enough to determine with 97% accuracy whether you are liberal or conservative? haha I wonder when caring for the well being of other people became a partisan thing.

Law
I enjoy contract law. I'm no lawyer, but I can't help but love the clarity and sophistication of English I find in such legal documents.

Computer Science
I've studied a little computer science at University. But I'm no academic, so I quickly found the door and went my own way. I've long had an interest in computers, and that quickly turned into a passion and determination to learn and understand every last detail about the technology I use. Some of that knowledge, I later used to create things - like the website before you.

Open Source and Free Software Movements
eff.org gnu.org fsf.org

Much of my own thoughts and beliefs on technology were influenced by these groups. Given the world we live in today, I wonder if it's even safe to admit this. lol

UNIX and Linux
Been using Linux since the 90's when I had a Blue and White G3 running Yellow Dog Linux, Mandrake Linux, Fedora Core ... As for UNIX, I got into that a little later. Always knew OpenBSD was a secure operating system, and the first server I ran ACDB on was an OpenBSD server. A few years back I had to change hosts, and the only UNIX available was FreeBSD. I don't like the community around FreeBSD, but I do like the stability of their kernel. It's provide many cycles of triple digit uptime. To say the least, I know a great deal about systems administration. I use Debian 7 on my main desktop, and my servers run FreeBSD 8. I have other computers running Debian 6, and one PC running Windows 7 ( for the games ).

Star Trek
Star Trek TNG is the inspiration for much of my moral and ethical code. Oh how I strive to be as good a leader as Picard. haha


=== Anime Manga Games ===

I make an effort each new season to check out what's new. I try to follow the most popular series, and others if they interest me.

Some anime's that I love to rewatch would be:

- Slayers
- Gundam Seed
- Gundam Seed Destiny
- Code Geass

I tend to love animes that are about adventure, usually with a fantasy setting that has swords and magic. I also love humor, and watch some ecchi series.

I follow most of the popular manga's.

- Naruto
- Bleach
- Claymore
- Fairy Tail

And as for games, I'll play the larger games that have cutting edge graphics. I prefer offline, solo games.

- Tomb Raider
- Hitman Absolution
- Skyrim
