YAY, PSME!!!!! It's so good! Like, even better than I remembered! I think there's a lot of foreshadowing I couldn't pick up on the first time I read the series. And because I know what happens already I'm not in quite as much of a hurry to find out what's next, so I can take more time reading it. I'm just struck once again by how awful everything must have been for Shion during those 9 years. And Rin's outburst in v3 or so(?) about wishing he were older. Waaaah!! Poor kid, I just want him to be happy. And Issei... and dear Alice. And I really, really admire Hiwatari-sensei's artistic skills. She can draw some amazingly expressive facial expressions (like vol4 p20, when Tamura is at the hospital-there's a series of 3 panels showing his expression change; I had to spend a minute or two just looking at that page and the next one. It's sooooo good...) And then there are her jokes, like when Alice's brother tells her she owns her life, not Hiwatari or Hakusensha or Viz-hahahah! I want to read some more now, but I've got stuff I should get done first.
Anyway. I do have a lot of clothes, heh! Since the place I'm moving doesn't have laundry, it's a good thing. I won't have to make laundry trips quite as often. And my new room has two closets, both at least as big as my current one! I'm so happyyyyy!
ChocoMimi is fun and light and very silly :D I love the art style (it's got a sorta cartoony retro feel?). My brother reads it too!!
