俺の。 Especially seinen anime. Really, I was surprised when I found out that Japanese don't use that many だから in their daily speech.

There's nothing wrong with that. Just don't let it be your only source of Japanese input. Many anime characters speak in exaggerated styles.

俺の。

<俺の>? That means "my". Did you mean to say <俺>?

"ore no", "ore mo". Which one means "me too"?

"ore no", "ore mo". Which one means "me too"?

Ore mo is me too, no is the genitive particle. Mo means too or also.

Also, I think that trendy Tokyo hipsters (lol) may regard watashi as a bit feminine, but in kansai, it's definitely not feminine at all, totally gender neutral. Another thing you might have been thinking of, would be "watakushi" which is a more polite/formal form of watashi, which, if used in not super formal contexts, can seem formal sometimes.

Japanese pronouns are hard. :P

I don't think so.

Some pronouns that may sound polite in Japanese are actually not. :?
And I still don't get how to use お前 :| Once my classmate said it when talking to me and I gave her a strange face.

Honestly, I just let native speakers use whatever pronoun they want, and I use anta, not too formal, not too informal. :D

I thought the most used way was just calling the name. :?

This is Japanese, right and not Arabic?
