That opening scene still blows my mind, all these years later

Streets of Fire, with killer robots?? Sign me right up
oh my god this is so fucking awesome, i wanna be her. that's the exact microphone that ive been lusting after too, the shure super 55.
also in terms of first crushes... hm. i think its a bit tough for me to choose. i didnt understand that i liked guys and girls, and being a trans woman, its always been rough for me. i was always more drawn towards male characters and always thought that the female characters were always way more pretty
in terms of which specific ones? i think Riku from Kingdom hearts and Edward Elric from FMA were my first "oh my god theyre so cool, i love them" characters
then Ranma showed up

for me, i think its less "i had/have a crush on them" and more "i want to be them" which i find is a pretty common feeling amongst trans people
