My earliest toon crushes came from (not surprisingly) anime, since anime purposely design their women to be smoking hotties from the start. Misty from Pokemon was a big thing for me, and the first "crush" I actually got really deep into.
As in, I would SO date her if she was real, deep. I found alot of similarities to her in personality and I always felt it was cute she was trying to be romantic and never got anywhere with it. I also had a thing for Gadget from Rescue Rangers, who surprisingly, has a GOD sized following behind her, mostly males too.
Most of the crushes I have had though have been with toon girls that are not like me personality wise. Kei from Dirty Pair Flash for example was a very large crush of mine, but she was very different personally and yet I was still drawn to her. Part of it WAS for physical beauty, I'm not gonna lie about that with Kei.
But most of it was compassion and sympathy because she got ripped on alot because she wasn't a "girlie girl", and I can relate to being stereotyped or ridiculed for acting/thinking differently. Frankie's my new current toon love of my life, and honestly a girl I think is more real then real can be defined.
And that's all I'm gonna say bout Frankie in here.
