Apr 03, 2011 17:43

Boredom is killing me and I need something fun to boost my writing inspiration. Any favorite BL/shounen-ai/yaoi manga titles I might like?

And in case you're curious, but I really don't care if you suggest something with/without these things...

Things I hate:

It's probably because our love of Pokemon isn't shared. -sobs forever- My soul seriously aches. Dx BUT ALL IS WELL NOW. And pfff, I've never been able to find Pokemon doujinshi because apparently my Google-fu is incompetent. OTL WHY DO YOU DO YOU COCK-BLOCK ME, INTERNETS?

I am so happy for those videos I crap out on occasion now. s;dfanldf THEY GET ME NICE THINGS. LIKE YOU. <3 Whooo. )o) And I actually like doing scanlation tests. xD -is a nerd-

OMG I SEE THE LIGHT. WHY WASN'T YAHOO!JAPAN IN MY LIFE BEFORE. And wat. Fire... that's the main protagonist that's suppose to be Red but isn't because he has brown, depressed hair, right? -suddenly regrets choosing the girl in that game- It's just not right. ;A; WHY WOULD THEY CHANGE IIIT. But I do like the fact that Red will forever be pixilated, pffff. <3 AND HIBIKI YAY. But why wouldn't he be with his real boyfriend. -sob more-

>3> I'm not gonna lie, the amount of N/Touya pleases me. -WILL BUY THEM ALL- But I'm stalking that site until more pop up. WE WILL MISS NO OPPORTUNITY.

How much does shipping cost from there, btw? xD

OH GOD I HOPE SO. I MEAN, I DON'T DOUBT MY SKILLS BUT I'M PARANOID. -clutches clone tool- I will cling to this tool until I can cling no more.

WHY WASN'T YAHOO!JAPAN IN YOUR LIFE BEFORE? That site is AMAZING! I've bought so many doujinshi from there...! Also, in case you didn't know, to buy from Japanese sites like that you need a middle man service. I use Shopping Mall Japan. ^^ But there are other ones, too.

Yep! Fire is the brown-haired Red from the remake games. Lots of people think they're the same person, but they're not... It's actually a little confusing, because there are technically, like, three Reds running around. Four if you count Ash/Satoshi. But the original Red shall always be my favorite!

There are some REALLY cute N/Touya doujinshi listed! Seriously! Like, look at this:

THEY'RE WEARING BUNNY EARS ON THE BACK OF THE COVER OMG I CAN'T EVEN--

-takes a deep breath-

Anyway.

The shipping just depends. ^^ As I said, I use SMJ, so the seller just charges for the shipping from them to SMJ's Japanese warehouse. Then SMJ will usually ship it free from their Japanese office to their American office. You then have to pay to get it shipped from the American warehouse to your house. It's a little confusing at first, but...

I THINK IT JUST CONFUSED ME BEFORE. XD Like--that middle man business. I must research this. Mandarake is so much simpler. as;dasd

IKR. Original Red will always be my hubby. I consider Ash to be a completely separate entity. xD He's just so... THE ONLY THING THEY SHARE ARE CLOTHES. AND PIKACHU.

THE BUNNY EARS OMG CAN I JUST-- I NEED EVERYTHING IN THAT DOUJINSHI ;A;A;A;A; I need to start my job right now. ;w; Why is January so far awaaaaay.

Oooooh, well, that sounds like it may be cheaper than Mandarake charges. Just a tad more confusing, but it's totally worth it if the shipping is cheaper. I pay more for shipping than I do the actual doujinshi. xD; Thank you for the instruction! )o) -bow bow bow-

Yeah, middle man services can definitely be confusing at first. I think it's worth it, though! Of course, I only say that because of the doujinshi I've gotten because of them... xD SMJ has a bunch of FAQs and tutorials on their website, though. I'd pimp out other middle man services to you, but I can't seem to remember any of the others right now... I think one's name reminded me of a crescent roll or something. I dunno. Now I want a crescent roll...

Original Red is the best! The absolute best! Though, Special!Red and Fire are pretty awesome, too. I guess in the Japanese fandom people sometimes like to think of Fire as Red's little brother who constantly beats up on Red's Green for touching his brother. xD And then he'll go and be all tsundere and loving with his own Green. It's amazing.

AND IKR? THOSE. BUNNY. EARS. /dies of cute

I'm not sure if it's cheaper or not... I bought my last doujinshi for 980 yen. With the current 76 yen for every dollar rate, the 470 yen internal shipping, the $3 wire fee (that's how they roll in Japan), and the $5 commission fee it ended up being $27.10. Yeah... ;-; But it shall be worth it when I have my new Pokemon doujinshi in my hands!
