User blog comment:Blankslate/On the topic of theme songs/@comment-3008090-20131001190625

I think that I am the only wierdo who actually picks a theme song and then bases a character around it. To me, music is just another outlet to draw inspiration from, just like television, movies, and even other manga. Let's take Blank's Asumu Godai for example. In the trivia, it says that Blank got a lot of inspiration from the character Khan Noonien Singh from Star Trek: Into Drakness. That is the way that it is with me and music (more so than most other forms of media). Also, let's be honest; who hasn't heard at least one song on the radio and was able to relate to it? Sometimes I hear songs on pandora, youtube, etc. and I try to base a character off of that. The best example I have for you right now would be Alicía Del Toro and the comedy song I based her off of, "Valley Girl". It is kind of embarising to mention now that I am not 13 anymore, but it is fun to experience with different character types. It is true when they say that "inspiration can come from anywhere".
