I want to make my own Anime, but i know nothing about animation. No actually I also want to make games based the anime I make, in addition to my own manga which is basis for all of this.. I want to be an artist, yet i want to graphics designer.. game programmer... and sculpter so I can sculp my own characters figures and dolls.. like how the Japanese done them. You see, the Japanese makes anime for their market and they seem to protect themselves from outside competition, and their anime and related stuff they make all have to have their endorse in them. It seems like its a closed market... unlike open source. Their anime they make only gives the opportunity to themselves... not us... the gaijins.... there is no internation industry participation in it.. other than low jobs or jobs being not recognised internationally... anime always gives recognition to themselves. We can't participate as how the japanese do.. they have the privilege and we don't, it like it is a japanese thing only japanese can make it. I want break that and create anime industry internationally. Who knows maybe one day would be amateurs like us will become professional so we can sell our products. I feel like I want to make the otaku culture possible in my place. no more hiding.. we'll come out and proud.... i want everyone to know that we exist.

Does anyone have this in mind they want to do in life?

Though I can't draw (i was actually interested in drawing when i was a kid, i was praised by being good drawer for my age even my parent said i m a good drawer, but my parents said artist don't make money and i was discourage to pursue further. And now what? I became a hikki, are they proud of me?), I haven't started yet. I m still making decisions before i get started in this. I can't do this by myself, it doesn't help that i don't know anyone nor have friends.. all i can do is dream... and get depressed about not doing anything.

I live in Australia.... I don't anyone who I can trust or have this interest to accomplish.I posted this in the hope someone is interested in this. I'm not joking, this is something I'm set to in my life, I can't now, but i'll start this in somewhere in the future, I'll start even when im in my late 30's and will continue to do until I die.I'm really Otaku Hikki from the past.. if anyone ever read some of my post, you will probably get some idea about me.....

Making my own mangas, anime, figures and dolls ( attribute this to Rozen Maiden ), games/ gal games, fighting games like Melty blood (that one kinda inspired to me rethink about my decision in learning programming again from scratch), Right now, i know nothing about making them.... it;s really hard if not possible.... making anime , animation is technically the hardest to me. Think about doing all that under one company, with team of out own!

what do people think?

are they interested?
