And as someone with spacial/directional skills considerably less developed than that of the average jellyfish, I identify way too easily with the "gets lost all the time" character trope - hello story of my life
ME, TOO! Although I was not aware that "gets lost all the time" was a trope until last year, when I read Ranma 1/2 on a whim and found (Ryoga had had the most accurate fictional representation of my navigational impairment I had ever seen, and I had to tell the internet about it.) Some of the reason I didn't notice this trope before is because I'm new to anime and manga, and that's where I'm finding lots of easily lost people so far. (As a project, I'm sort of looking for them.)
Speaking of which, I know of Soul Eater, (and Marie!) but haven't read/watched it yet! And I have access to it! (Our library has a few volumes, and also it's streaming on Netflix.) Getting started on it would be good preparation for the fest, especially since my list could use some more ladies.
