I just reread the Secret Mission from the manga, to compare it with the anime episode.

WELL.

The anime wins by a LANDSLIDE! Again. This is not news, I LOVE the PoT anime, the manga sometimes leaves me fairly meh. :0;;

OMFG IRIE

Also. Finally read the first chapter of Nanika Mochigatte Masuka.

WOW. WOW. WOW. Kitoh, I think you've done it again, you old pervert, you. >_>

You like Prince of Tennis? Whistle!? Oofuri? Sport manga in general?

Please do yourself a favor and check out

Area no Kishi

It's a soccer manga that actually managed to grip me from the get go, and I don't even like soccer. *___* Just... Try it? =D

WHAT? WHAT? WHAT??! T__________________________T

Well, it's hardly escaped any PoT fan that the new manga chapter is out and that Tenipuri is CONTINUING~ ♥♥♥ My thoughts on the new chapter - given the fact that I know zip Chinese - is that Eiji is very, very prettiful, Fuji is prettiful/yumworthy, Akaya looks great, and uh... Well, everyone looks great! XD I love the new Long Haired Coach/person, and the background art is stunning as usual. So. Freaking. Detailed. *____________* I'm in love.

Chibi!Hyoutei OVA is gonna be great, but might kill me with CUTE. Shota!Chota looks adorable. 'Nuff said.

Also. Fuji's ass. 10+~ ♥

Bokurano Chapter 55. Wow. So. EFFIN. CUTE. Ushiro and Machi just kicking back (well, for being them at least) and actually acting like the 13 year olds they are... Priceless! ;_; And Kanji showing Ushiro his porn mags? XD A.W.E.S.O.M.E! Also, my shipping heart went all: XDDDDb when Ushiro said it was Kanji's fault he didn't really appreciate looking at naked girls all that much. 8D;;; Eheeheheheh... Kanji/Jun FTW? 8Db And Jun saying 'boku'. It kinda seals it for me that it's supposed to be Jun singing Uninstall. Sorta. At least that's what I'm going with. And I remember something. The first anime episode... There was a voice over back then, and the one speaking was an adult male. Meaning it wasn't Kana. And in the manga Kana's already dead, so... Hm. There might be a small - very small - chance that Jun might actually survive. ...Unless the one speaking was Koemushi. I have no idea.

Mentioned earlier that I was on a Fushigi Yuugi rush? Both original and Genbu Kaiden. Well... I'm kinda on a Watase Yuu rush period. So I'm really enjoying her new manga - Sakuragari and Arata Kangatari - a lot. Sakuragari is a dark but beautiful yaoi manga. There's abuse and blood and trauma... But it's so beautifully drawn and I love dark storylines like this... Even if I'm only so-so attracted to stories where the rape victim falls for his rapist down the line. Maybe I'm just a bit sensitive about the Stockholm Syndrome? I don't know. I still really enjoy the story. And the last time the main character was raped, it wasn't by his seme. It was by his seme's wannabe seme, and I highly doubt he'll end up with him. >_>;;

Arata Kangatari is a shounen manga, and it's rather lighthearted and entertaining. Boy gets sucked into our world while escaping troubles in his own world. Bullied boy from our world - who is a dead ringer for the other boy, only their colors are opposite - gets pulled into the other world when trying to make himself disappear from our world. They get mistaken for each other. Enter trouble and adventure for the boy from our world, and enter confusing chaos and weirdness for the boy from the other world. And yeah. Both of them are named Arata.

I also really like her oneshot Pandora's Cube. It's awesome! *_*

I do love that manga! *__* Partner, by Obana Miho (The woman who created Kodomo no Omocha - Child's Toy). I've been reading it over at omanga.net, and I can only recommend it! What's it about? Nae and Moe are twin sisters, identical. They're 17 years old, and best friends with two boys, Ken and Takeshi (also twins, but not identical). Moe is in love with Ken, but so is Nae (main character). Shoujo at it's best, right? Well, something happens: Moe dies. She dies and her corpse is stolen. And that is only the beginning of the twisted things ahead... Don't expect much over the top humor as in Kodocha, this is more a horror story, but the plot is just as good as the Kodocha-manga plot! ^__^ I really can't recommend it enough! *___* Unfortunally, they don't have much of it scanlated at all... T_T

The manga that's being translated into Swedish is often the most popular manga around, and often aimed to very young people. Hopefully it will change with Kare Kano, Inuyasha and Fushigi Yuugi, but still. And most is aimed to boys. Well, they've started to release some manwha (korean comics) as well, and a few of the titles are shoujo, aimed to girls 14 and up, or something. I love it! ^^ We have Snowdrop (I need more!! *___*) and I.N.V.U (I envy you). That seems really promising. ^^ Cool stuff...

My Ryoma-sim and my Kevin-sim made out in their tub at the resort when I left them... ^^
