Rant
You don’t have to read if you don’t want to, this post is mostly about my (hopeless) crush.
It seems this blog got a lot of hits recently because people were looking for Gakuen Alice 102. I had an old post where I wrote the number of the chapter wrong (102 instead of 101) and it [...]

Gakuen Alice 101 is out
FINALLY! OMG! YES!
A lot of the mystery is locked in the past. Tons of foreshadowing in this chapter. Something tragic about Teacher Noda.
I can’t wait for Sept 5th.
EDIT: I just realized my mistake, it’s chapter 101, not 102. Sorry people! The Japanese version should have been out on Sept 5th but I don’t know [...]

Aww me bishies
WAHAHAHAH, I love my favourite bishie in Skip Beat! He handed her flowers! WAHAHAHAHAHAH! OMG!

YES! That softened expression! Yes! [...]
Comments on the Japanese live action Hana Kimi
Written to huey on facebook wall:
I skimmed through 10 episodes. Although the sets and costumes were quite nice, imho, it was completely different from the manga. Dr. Umeda wasn’t even openly gay and he was the one afraid of his reporter junior instead of the other way around (not to mention there was no Aki [...]

Romance Novels are thought experiments
I find shoujo manga interesting because they are thought experiments about love relationships. There are a wide, wide range of hypothetical situations, many ‘what-ifs’. What would be the end result of a relationship that had this and this and that set of elements? Every shoujo manga is out to figure it out… [...]

Penguin Revolution
As much a fan as I am of Japanese manga and anime, I cannot help but laugh at the kinds of “Engrish” titles they use for their works.
I’m reading Penguin Revolution at the moment, online. It’s rather funny outside of context. Then, there’s BLEACH (refer to the vgcats comic, 4th panel) and on the manga [...]

Home for the Weekend
1. Gakuen Alice #5
There wasn’t much in terms of development to this volume. And, yes, I’ve already read it in scanlations but I love this series too much not to buy a set. I can’t wait for #7… It’ll finally be something I haven’t seen already.
2. All-Star Batman & Robin Issue #2
Batman is insane. But [...]
