oh, I love mail day.
.Media that arrived in the mail for me today (and stuff I bought):
DVDs:
Volume 1 of the Hanazakari no Kimitachi E DVD (episodes 1-6 are collected) and I'm watching the bonus disc and oh, it's like reliving summer all over again. They feature the press conference where they introduce the cast, and there's this funny Engrish voice over. The individual photoshoot behind the cast photo is made of SO MUCH WIN. Shun. Licking his lips. Smiling. SHUN. ILU.
I'm going to curl up with it this weekend, and finish watching my Flight of the Conchords DVD set too. I also bought Dangermouse: the Complete Seasons 1&2 with a 40% coupon I got from Borders.
Novels:
The Teahouse Fire - Ellis Avery
I'm going to start this after I finish reading Matthew Pearl's The Dante Club, and my two PG Wodehouse novels
Manga: (yeah, I read a lot of shojo. For research purposes.)
The Other Side of the Mirror: volume 1 - Jo Chen
I <3 Jo Chen's artwork so much, so I was excited to find out that Tokyopop translated her original two shot manga from Chinese.
Miki Falls: Autumn, Winter, volumes 3 and 4 in the Miki Falls quartet - Mark Crilley
Yurara: volume 4 - Chika Shiomi
Kitchen Princess: volume 5 - Natsumi Ando. Yes, I like it for the recipes. Shut up.
Venus in Love: volume 2 - Yuki Nakaji
Skip Beat: volume 11 - Yoshiki Nakamura
Beauty Pop: volume 7 - Kiyoko Arai.
I have to finish the rest of the Kougra Ninja Scrolls (adapted from the source material that Shinobi's based on), and I'm going to check out Fuyumi Soryo's Eternal Sabbath (or ES) once volume 8 (the last one) is released by Del Rey.
