I was in Japantown with my darling friend freakbythebay the other day, and I kept pointing out anime & manga series to her and saying "YOU NEED TO WATCH/READ THIS." After a while I'd named too many things, so she asked me to make a list. ( So here's my list for recommended anime viewing and manga reading. Enjoy, Jax! )

Stolen from...well, a few people actually!

- X what you saw
- O what you haven't finished/saw sizable portions
- Bold what you loved
- Italics for what you disliked/hated
- Leave unchanged if neutral

THEY'RE MAKING AN ANIME OF ANTIQUE BAKERY!!

IT'S COMING OUT IN JULY!!

I loved this series so much. I was obsessed with Japanese pastries for about 3 months after reading it, LOL

And they're not going to change Ono's sexuality like they did in the live action version. He will remain "the gay of demonic charm," and rightly so! :D

SO EXCITED!!
