Hello ^_^
I haven't read any full volumes of manga recently so I've decided that I would just post a few titles that are on my to-be-read list. I got a Shojo Beat vol. 4 sampler a few months ago and finally picked it up to read.
And because of that there two titles that have JUST been added a few seconds ago.
Title:
Monkey High
Mangaka: Shouko Akira
Haruna Aizawa thinks that school life is just like a monkey mountain - all the monkeys form cliques, get into fights, and get back together again. The school that she just transferred to is no exception. There's even a boy called Macahru Yamashita who reminds her of a baby monkey!
Why do I want it?
I only got a chance to read the first 48 pages of this volume but I already love it. I had come across the book before and the synopsis never really caught my interest but the story is cute and funny. Macharu is adorable, he's always got a big grin plastered on his face and he always so nice it seems nothing can get him down and I just love that about him. And he's certainly the type of person Haruna could use right now with the family drama she is going through.
Title: Captive Hearts
Mangaka: Matsuri Hino
Carefree Megumi Kuroishi was living a life of luxury until the day a girl named Suzuka Kogami walked into his life. All of a sudden, Megumi finds himself kneeling at Suzuka's feet and prostrating himself like a servant! What Megumi doesn't know (until that very moment anyway) is that his family is cursed to follow the orders of the Kogami family.
Why do I want it?
I tried reading this before and for some reason lost interest really quickly. However when I tried again I found myself laughing and enjoying the few pages I got to read. Watching Megumi struggle to NOT serve Suzuka who is oblivious to his curse is hilarious especially when he's calling her princess and carrying her around when she barely speaks Japanese xD.
So now its your turn, what manga or anime are on your wishlist?
