Have you found a reading soulmate? Describe why someone would be yours.

I dunno, mate, but for manga rhinemouse  and I have freakishly similar weaknesses. Particular tastes skewed from each other enough she's read a lot of stuff I never clicked into in my searches, and it seems like the reverse is also true...

good grief, I'm logged into my poetry account... gossamer_spun October 13 2010, 01:43:15 UTC
The last row is Zettai Heiwa Daisakusen (Absolute Peace Battle!) where the prince and princess of long fighting countries (one seeming more Anglo, one seeming more Arabian) decide to marry for the sake of their countries' peace...but neither are having an easy time making peace with each other.

A lotta cute bickering, but it can be touching, too. The ages of conflict are being more swept under the rug than brushed off, so some of the fights are actual life-or-death ones. YAAAAAY! XD

The one next to Skip Beat (I see my third has disappeared, drats, now I hafta remember what it was...) is "Watashi no Ookami-san" which is a pretty short mini-series set in a game-universe (not a real game, mind you, but a world where gaming levels and so on form the reality). And the Level 0 heroine is doing her best to better the world, despite her mad lack of mana.
Unfortunately when she takes on the demon king...he decides she's adorable, and tagging along with her is much more fun than ruling the Forces of Evil. To her great annoyance.

It's priceless. Both funny and tongue-in-cheek but squarely shojo, too.

AH! We also both like Special A...
