Anime forum-need opinions

I need some opinions about my forum. How can I make it better? How can I get more people to join my forum?

The name of the forum says it all, the interface is meant to be simple without a lot of topics and sections.

eeI some opinions about my forum. How can I make it better? How can I get more people to join my forum?

The name of the forum says it all, the interface is meant to be simple without a lot of topics and sections.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS: 
Let me start by saying that i do enjoy the concept of your forum XD its one you dont see all that often XD However, looking at your forum.... Its kinda... Well 'blah' for lack of a better term. The only kind of theming it has is its banner. The rest of the layout ks just default proboards. Nothing really sets it apart from other forums like it. 

I definately think you should check out the theme library to find a cool colour scheme for your forum that makes it pop and makes it look less bland. Maybe some neon colors? (Which make me think of anime) lol. 

I also think you should find some way to diversify your categories. The forum looks sorta incomplete as it is now, maybe seperate anime or manga into types (drama, suspence, horror?) Or divide them into completed and ongoing, maybe popular and obscure? Theres numerous ways you could divide them up XD same goes for the anime part. 

I also recommend posting some more topics on it, so guests see a chance to discuss things. Maybe write up a review of your personal favorite mangas? Provide a list of mangas your reading or have read? Again theres a lot of option here. xD

LOOKING DEEPER
The few threads you do have are decent, easy to find, and would be easy to join XD nice job so far!

Thats really all i can say here, kind of covered some of it above XD

ALL IN ALL
Definately not bad, its a good start, just need some work XD

Having guest friendly areas on your forum is never really a bad idea. 

As for the font size, it should be somewhere under:
Admin ? Themes ? Adv. Styles & Css ? Visual Editor
