| 11 | %% |
| 12 | * ''Moetan'' |
| 13 | * ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWars'', which got me to appreciate HumongousMecha and convinced me to watch... |
| 14 | ** ''Anime/BrainPowerd'' |
| 15 | ** ''Literature/FullMetalPanic'' |
| 16 | ** ''Anime/MobileFighterGGundam'', now one of my favorite shows. |
| 17 | ** ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED'' |

| 20 | ** ''Anime/MobileSuitGundam'' |
| 21 | ** ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion'' |
| 22 | ** ''Manga/{{Zeorymer}}'', which I looked into due to this site's apparent disdain for it. Aside from anticlimactic battles and the manga's GratuitousRape, it's actually not that bad. |
| 23 | * Website/ChannelAwesome |
| 24 | * ''ComicBook/{{Watchmen}}'' |
| 25 | * And about half the items on the Horrible pages. |
| 26 | |
| 27 | [[AC:@/{{SaltyWalty}}:]] |
| 28 | * ''WebComic/ElGoonishShive'': Website/TvTropes really introduced me to webcomics... |
| 29 | |
| 30 | [[AC:@/{{sanfranman91}}:]] |
| 31 | * ''VideoGame/AmnesiaTheDarkDescent'': Thanks to [=TvTropes=]' references to this game, I still have nightmares of Mr. Face stalking me. Was it worth it? '''ABSOLUTELY.''' |
| 32 | * ''WebVideo/TheAngryVideoGameNerd'': As a fan of WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic, I wondered if his rival was any good. After reading [=TVTropes=], I watched a few episodes. Since that day, I've converted into a member of the AVGN fandom and would probably root for him if he ever battled WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic again (even though I still watch the latter). |
| 33 | * Any movie with '''Creator/BrianBlessed!!!''' |
| 34 | * ''{{Manga/Gantz}}'': And boy, did [[GrowingTheBeard the manga take off after volume 10.]] Thanks fellow tropers for the recommendation! |
| 35 | * Music/JAMProject would not be on my iPhone if it weren't for the SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic page. |
| 36 | * ''Franchise/KamenRider'': Nothing like good {{Tokusatsu}} to make you feel like a kid again. '''HENSHIN!''' |
| 37 | * ''Literature/LetTheRightOneIn'': Who knew a ToyShip between a boy and a vampire would make such an amazing love (and horror) story? |
| 38 | * ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamThe08thMSTeam'': Seriously, after reading the review and examples from this OVA, I gave this short series a try. BEST. GUNDAM. OVA. EVER. (Well... the twelfth episode was kind of unnecessary. I could see why Creator/{{Toonami}} kept it out of their broadcasts.) |
| 39 | * ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion'': A timeless classic that I would have otherwise overlooked. |
| 40 | * ''Anime/TheVisionOfEscaflowne'': Again, another timeless classic that shouldn't be forgotten. |
| 41 | * ''Anime/WolfsRain'': This is one of my favorite shows of all time, in any genre. And I would've never heard of it if it wasn't for [=TVTropes=]. |
| 42 | |
| 43 | |
| 44 | [[AC:@/SapphireFlame:]] |
| 45 | * ''Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann'': I only started watching it because the wiki kept constantly talking about it and I wanted to see it for myself. I was not disappointed. |
| 46 | * ''Webcomic/TheOrderOfTheStick'': Again, a great decision. |
| 47 | * ''Webcomic/DanAndMabsFurryAdventures'' |
| 48 | * ''WebAnimation/ZeroPunctuation'' |
| 49 | * ''Website/ChannelAwesome'' |
| 50 | * I'm not sure if this counts, but quite a few songs on my Ipod would not be there if it weren't for the SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic page. |
| 51 | |
| 52 | [[AC: @/{{Scialen}}]] |
| 53 | * ''ComicBook/{{Watchmen}}'' finally built the bridge between damn fine writing and comics (yes, I know it is a Graphic Novel, but for me, this blend of comic-style art and fiction led me to have Watchmen as the very ''definition'' of Graphic Novel). |
| 54 | * ''VideoGame/PlanescapeTorment''. Seriously. I am a fan of [=RPG=]s but this is just blowing my mind. |
| 55 | * ''Literature/HaruhiSuzumiya'' |
| 56 | |
| 57 | [[AC:@/{{ScorpiusOB1}}]] |
| 58 | * (This list ''will'' be expanded) |
| 59 | * ''Literature/AtlasShrugged'' (I don't share at all Ayn Rand's ideas, but knowing about them it's culture after all). |
| 60 | * ''Literature/IHaveNoMouthAndIMustScream''. |
| 61 | * ''Literature/MaradoniaSaga'' (just 'cause it's SoBadItsGood). |
| 62 | * ''Literature/LatawnyaTheNaughtyHorseLearnsToSayNoToDrugs'' (same as above. Bile fascination at its finest). |
| 63 | * ''TabletopGames/FadingSuns'' (knew of its existence, but that was all). |
| 64 | * ''Literature/TheSalvationWar''. |
| 65 | * Some bands listed on the SopranoAndGravel entry. |
| 66 | |
| 67 | [[AC: @/SecretFan14]] |
| 68 | * ''Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica'': This show is one of the first serious anime I have ever watched, and it's still one of the best. |
| 69 | ** ''Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagicaTheMovieRebellion'': Goddammit, [=TVTropes=]. The animation was gorgeous, though. |
| 70 | * ''Anime/KillLaKill'': This anime is really fun to watch, even if it's cheesy beyond belief, and some of the battle scenes are the best I've seen so far. Some of them. |
| 71 | * ''Videogame/YumeNikki'': This game is so creepy. I love it. And its WMG page. |
| 72 | ** And all the creepy [=RPGs=] I have to play now that I started {{Videogame/OFF}}. |
| 73 | * Convinced me to finish the ''Literature/HarryPotter'' books. So worth it. |
| 74 | * I have taken to consulting the Main/FanFicRecs pages when I'm out of reading material. There's a lot of enjoyable fanmade material on there. [[MyFriendsAndZoidberg And]] ''Fanfic/MyImmortal''. |
| 75 | ** That introduced me to Website/ArchiveOfOurOwn and its oodles of stories ranging from good, to entertainingly bad, to just plain ugly. I regret nothing. |
| 76 | * ''WebOriginal/ProtectorsOfThePlotContinuum'': Really funny, and actually heartwarming at times. |
| 77 | * The ''Literature/{{Discworld}}'' series, and by extension, ''Literature/GoodOmens'', ''Creator/NeilGaiman'', and ''ComicBook/TheSandman''. Oh my god. |
| 78 | * ''WebVideo/AMVHell'', which led me to ''Manga/AzumangaDaioh'', ''Manga/ExcelSaga'', ''Manga/OuranHighSchoolHostClub'', and probably a lot of more shows to come. |
| 79 | * ''Music/WeirdAlYankovic'': I'm going to have his songs stick in my head for eternity, aren't I? |
| 80 | * ''VIdeoGame/{{Portal}}'': I love this franchise. It's hilarious. |
| 81 | * ''Website/{{Cracked}}'': This site turned out to be a great time-waster, and I love its videos so much (''WebVideo/AfterHours'' and ''WebVideo/RomDotCom'' especially). And apparently my drama teacher reads it too. |
| 82 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'': Futurama is to adult cartoons as [=TVTropes=] is to everything else. |
| 83 | * ''Webcomic/{{Helvetica}}'': A mystery comic about skeletons. I started reading this to deal with Undertale withdrawal, and now I'm hooked. |
| 84 | * ''Blog/DasSporking'': There are so many talented sporkers on here. Also, if you want an in-depth analysis of absolutely everything wrong with ''Literature/TheTwilightSaga'', this is the place to go. |
| 85 | * ''Webcomic/SidekickGirl'': It starts out as an entertaining little romp about a HypercompetentSidekick and her coworkers, but it gets much darker and more interesting as it goes on. Especially if you read the whole thing in 4 hours like I did. |

| 184 | * ''Literature/CodexAlera'' ...and then I decided to check the other ''Creator/JimButcher'' series... |
| 185 | * ''Anime/CowboyBebop'' |
| 186 | * ''Webcomic/HolidayWars'' |

| 188 | * ''Sluggy freelance'' |
| 189 | |
| 190 | [[AC: @/{{Skrim}}]] |
| 191 | * ''Website/OrionsArm'': Saw it first on the NoTranshumanismAllowed page (the one work which averted the trope, mocked it, shot at it with antimatter missiles and threw it into a black hole). I already had some transhumanist vibes, so I naturally explored the work and got hooked. |
| 192 | * ''VideoGame/BattleForWesnoth'': Looking for freeware games. |
| 193 | * ''VideoGame/GroundControl'': Same. |
| 194 | * ''Webcomic/TheOrderOfTheStick'': How can you not run into that here? |
| 195 | * ''Webcomic/GunnerkriggCourt'': Not sure how I found this. |
| 196 | * ''Webcomic/DarthsAndDroids'': The image on MinMaxing. |
| 197 | * ''Webcomic/DMOfTheRings'': The image on CallThatAFormation. |
| 198 | * ''Literature/TheSilmarillion'': Got there from ''Literature/TheLordOfTheRings'' page. |
| 199 | * ''Film/ThePrincessBride'': JustForFun/{{Hello}}. MyNameIsInigoMontoya. YouKilledMyFather. PrepareToDie. |
| 200 | * ''Series/{{QI}}'': Again not sure. |
| 201 | |
| 202 | [[AC: @/{{Skywerewolf}}]] |
| 203 | * VideoGame/CaveStory: I didn't know it was free online, and it was really good game. I just wish there was a way to start the game with the polar star. |
| 204 | * VideoGame/DwarfFortress: half Website/TVTropes half one of my friends. i found it and learned it because of [=TVTropes=], and I had a friend help me play the game, now it's back at [=TVTropes=] as to why I keep playing it, wanting to build at least one super thing. |
| 205 | * VideoGame/ExitFate: It's a nice take on the turn based based game, which I do think should be filed under digital novels by this point, and it's a good departure from the old style of "guy destorys world, you save it." |
| 206 | ** Also VideoGame/LastScenario, because I saw CatharsisFactor and decided "why not?" |
| 207 | * VideoGame/JFKReloaded: Truely some of the sickest fun ever for me, and I see what crazy lengths I can take things. Currently I've blasted JFK, had his driver crash and back up, running over the bodies, and caused 3 differnt crashes in other cars. |
| 208 | * PowderToy: Because why not? |
| 209 | * VideoGame/{{Spelunky}}: I love challenging games that aren't brutal, and spelunky delivers. It's very fair, and if you focus you need not die. |
| 210 | * VideoGame/KnightsOfTheOldRepublic: a friend showed it to me, but it convinced me to get the sequal. I have vista so it doesn't play. |
| 211 | * VideoGame/CastlevaniaFighter: Not too great, but it's still fun and a nice call back to all the games. |

| 220 | |
| 221 | [[AC:@/{{SMN108}}]] |

| 223 | |
| 224 | [[AC: @/{{Sneebs}}]] |
| 225 | * Anime |
| 226 | ** Anime/RahXephon - This series reintroduced me to the series I once noticed in the movie store but [[AnimationAgeGhetto I was too afraid to rent in front of my dad]]. I'm glad it did. |
| 227 | ** Anime/PrincessTutu - A series I'd brush off as frivolous fluff, the good word of many a troper won me over. |
| 228 | |
| 229 | [[AC: @/{{Soap MacTavish}}]] |
| 230 | * ''Literature/{{Discworld}}''. The number of mentions regarding this book eventually led me to read it. I never regret it. |
| 231 | * ''Film/ThePrincessBride''. Again, Inigo naming quite a few tropes in one sentence made me watch this. |
| 232 | |
| 233 | [[AC: @/{{Solandra}}]] |
| 234 | * WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender: After experiencing HypeAversion, I finally got around to checking it out. It really ''is'' one of the best WesternAnimation series ever. Maybe not 100% perfect, but much better and more entertaining than 90% of TV shows out there. |
| 235 | * Webcomic/HetaliaAxisPowers: I'm not ashamed to admit that I like the series, and it was pretty much curiosity about where all these cool-sounding references to anthropomorphic personifications of countries were coming from that drew me into it. |
| 236 | * Literature/BridgeOfBirds: I am eternally grateful to the troper who put it on the Gush page for Literature, because that was what made me decide to check it out and find out that it isn't as epic as s/he made it sound...it's even ''more'' epic. |
| 237 | * Literature/GoodOmens: The page for the book made it sound like a fun and quirky book, so I borrowed it from the library. And of course, it turned out to be exactly the kind of book I love. Not to mention that it introduced me to... |
| 238 | * Creator/NeilGaiman: I wouldn't even have ''heard'' of him if it were not for this website. He's now one of my favorite authors. |
| 239 | * And a ton of {{webcomic}}s (Webcomic/ElGoonishShive, Webcomic/GirlGenius, Webcomic/GunnerkriggCourt, Webcomic/KhaosKomix...), thanks to tropers Administrivia/{{Entry Pimp}}ing the hell out of them. |

| 371 | Believe it or not, I found Website/TVTropes from...Website/TheOtherWiki. Yep, all because I hit the random article button. After that, the rest was history. Here are my addictions: |
| 372 | * WebVideo/YuGiOhTheAbridgedSeries: Oh yes. I was searching about Anime/YuGiOh5Ds on the site when I ran across the title. I clicked it, followed the link to Creator/LittleKuriboh's channel. However, it was blocked, so I watched the series on the official page and fell in love with it. It also lead me to... |
| 373 | * Anime/YuGiOh: Yep. I got into the Franchise/YuGiOh fandom in 5Ds and knew absolutely nothing about the original. Combined with the Abridged Series and [=TVTropes=], it's one of the things I can recite from memory! [[spoiler: still working on finishing the series however.]] |

| 442 | Arrived here after reading Blog/{{Moonstuck}} and {{FanFic/Fallout Equestria}}. TV Tropes revived my long-dead interest in anime and manga, and spamming the Random Page button has become my default way of killing time on the Internet. |

| 444 | * The wonderful world of ''[[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann Gurren Lagann]]'' |

| 458 | * Machinarium: It was mentioned on the main page that it had a beautiful soundtrack which I still listen to. |
| 459 | * Manga/MaidenRose: Found this on the anime/manga gush page. |
| 460 | * VideoGame/{{Persona 4}}: A couple of fanfics |
| 461 | * VisualNovel/RibbonOfGreen: I was looking for freeware games for my video game blog and found this. |

| 469 | * ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'' |
| 470 | * ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'': It was all over the wiki. I avoided it at first, but eventually I thought I'd see what all the fuss was about. Next thing I knew, I was well into Season 2 and I didn't see any reason to stop. |
| 471 | * ''Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire'': Same as ''MLP''. It was all over the wiki like cheap perfume, I had a look, and I was hooked. |
| 472 | * ''Webcomic/{{xkcd}}'': It was mostly the amount of page images. I loved the humor, and now I check it regularly for new strips. |

| 500 | Tv Tropes has dragged me into a few fandoms, and by extension of that, into others. It's also made me more interested in them than I was before, and relive and re-watch old series or things I only had a passing interest in. |
| 501 | |
| 502 | * Webcomic/HetaliaAxisPowers (This actually became my biggest fandom. Honestly, I love it so much. Without TV Tropes, I never ever ever ever would have gotten into it. Now I'm a really active member of the community, and even on some of the Hetalia Trope pages :D) |

Months later, with that conversation long forgotten, I found TV Tropes, fell in love with ''Order of the Stick'' and was able to be honest with him when he asked me if I'd looked at it. |

| 798 | * Anime/AngelBeats - ditto |
| 799 | * Literature/{{Durarara}} - ditto |
| 800 | * Webcomic/CuantaVida (and by extension pretty much the entirety of VideoGame/TeamFortress2) - Abusing the "Random" button enough, then taking a WikiWalk |
| 801 | * Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann (anyone surprised?) - Well I ''had'' to find out what the whole fuss was about, didn't I? |
| 802 | * ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'' through which ''Webcomic/MSPaintAdventures'' - ditto |
| 803 | * LastDaysOfFOXHOUND (This comic here? My headcanon. [[SincerityMode Thank you]] for cracking up ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid'' for me, [=TvTropes=]!) - Some way through the "related" on VideoGame/MetalGearSolid |

| 808 | [[AC: @/{{Zenning}}]] |
| 809 | * Literature/{{Discworld}}: An amazing series that this troper enjoys thanks to TV Tropes.. Only half a year since his introduction, and he owns 30 of the series books. |
| 810 | * Fanfic/ShinjiAndWarhammer40K: The series introduced this troper to the idea that yes.. Fanfiction can actually be worth reading. |
| 811 | * Literature/CiaphasCain: This trope always been a fan of the CowardlyLion, and LighterAndSofter. I also like Warhammer, so when he heard about the series here, he went out and bought The Hero of the Imperium. No regrets. |
| 812 | |
| 813 | [[AC:Tropers/{{Zerky}}]] |
| 814 | * Webcomic/GunnerkriggCourt: A fortunate introduction. Less fortunate was the introduction to the infuriating written [=QAs=] with the writer. |
| 815 | * Literature/HaruhiSuzumiya: Her only regret is watching it in the broadcast order. |
| 816 | * Literature/AFistfulOfSky: Obscure book is obscure. zerky actually had to buy this one used from a seller in another country. |
| 817 | * Series/TheVampireDiaries: Given all its parallels to Twilight and her own militant HypeAversion, this is a pleasure so guilty it makes zerky feel as if she is taking pleasure in [[Series/{{Firefly}} sodomizing and eating someone's freshly-murdered body]] while watching this. That said... OMGCAROLINE |
| 818 | |
| 819 | [[AC:Tropers/{{ZeroL}}]] |

| 823 | * Webcomic/AntiheroforHire: Only read a few so far |
| 824 | * Webcomic/EightBitTheater: also only read a few here |
| 825 | * Webcomic/ElGoonishShive: I think it was the image on the FlatWhat page... |
| 826 | * Literature/HaruhiSuzumiya: One of the multiple series that I've just wondered what the hell it was about and why it's so popular. |
| 827 | * VisualNovel/HigurashiWhenTheyCry: Learned about this after I got into K:BDH below. it's my current obsession. |
| 828 | * Fanfic/KyonBigDamnHero: Found this after getting into Haruhi and hitting the "random page" button a few times. |
| 829 | * Manga/LuckyStar: I haven't decided yet if i'm going to watch this yet. I havn't found the time. |
| 830 | * Manga/OmamoriHimari: One link lead to another... the caption under the image didn't help me not read it. |
| 831 | * Webcomic/OneOverZero: 1003 comic ArchiveBinge in 3 days...ish. |
| 832 | * Webcomic/TheOrderOfTheStick: From the, [[SarcasmMode of all pages]], LampshadeHanging page. |
