Didn't FictionJunction KAORI do Kaze no Machi e? The song from Outo?
And I do know more guys that watch anime . . . most of my girl friends that are into it read manga instead. Mind you, I know more guys than girls, so maybe my ideas are a little skewed.
(and Ask Dr. Rin!)
Actually 'Kaze no Machi e' was sung by FictionJunction KEIKO. 'Tsubasa' was done by KAORI. She is my age and a typical Japanese singer...this one was probably her debut song....and so can't speak English. The whole FictionJunction thingy came out last year: FictionJuction KAORI, FictionJunction KEIKO, FictionJunction ASUKA and my favorite FictionJuction YUUKA (who did the songs in Madlax and and 'Honoo no Tobira' for Gundam Seed Destiny). I am pretty sure all their songs were composed and written by Miss Kajiura Yuki.
Anyways, about this girl/guy thing, all over the world people like anime. If you were to do a survey around the world and not just the western hemisphere you'd see many girls are into anime....the population is exceeded by girls especially in South Asia.
And as for Sakura's power....she has an excellent luck and was called god's favorite daughter or something....it has to do with the power I suppose. Whatever she did in her previous life (
) is probably responsible for that.
