So I guess, in a nutshell-- for this party, I came for the animals, but I stayed for the aliens :D




Ditto.  As a kid, if the covers didn't show kids turning into animals on the cover (or just animals in general), and if the covers had pictures of andalites and yeerks and yeerk pools and spaceships etc... I don't think I'd have ever picked any of the books up, let alone read them.

However, now that I'm not a kid - yeah, the kids-vs-aliens intergalactic-space-war theme would attract me to the books and I would probably read them even if the ani's didn't turn into animals (comparable to something like the Tomorrow series, I suppose)... althought the series would then lose its "uniqueness" in my mind

The animals caught my interest, but the aliens won me over 8)

The animals. I was never a sci-fi fan, and I can still hardly stand it. But I loved the animal aspect - the idea of becoming one was just overwhelmingly cool, and still is.

I thought it was dumb at first actually. And way overused. But then a friend introduced mw to the series and I absolutely loved it!

I don't know what really attracted me to the Animorphs, I just read books at an unsustainable pace at the time that Animorphs bumped into me and I into it. As for what kept me reading: the Aliens.

I don't know how I got into it, I think it was the animals... But I stayed for the characters... Is that a cop answer? I feel like it might be. Aliens and animals both are awesome, but the people in it made it for me. I would constantly quote their lines and thoughts out loud.

It might have been "animals" right off the bat for me, specifically the morphing cover and flipbook animations. But then, as Goom said, the sci-fi and aliens reigned me in further.

Both equally. I had already gotten extremely hooked on a TV series called Tracker that involved aliens taking over human bodies (although their hosts died, leaving the alien the only one in the body),so that part got my attention. But so did the animal stuff, since I'm a huge animal lover.
