happiness is...
checking in on a irregularly updated manga to find they posted a new chapter THAT DAY

sadness is...
finding no other matches for an author whose work is really good

Alternatively, something much more deep. But today for me it was that or granola that was actually baked/friend being supersick. So. Yanno. Editorial.

Some days are just a Skip-Beat! day.

Today, starting at about 10pm, has become one--why is this manga so GOOD?

Why does the Taiwanese drama have to look so BAD?

Ahaha, I think this manga I found is basically made for me...made to SUBVERT me, that is ( Read more... )

So many manga I liked would have ended so much better if only they'd descended into school-gang-politics and actual fist-fights instead of boring societal politics and break-up fights.

I am afraid, because I really, really am enjoying Bleach. I had a vague idea that like Naruto it ran ( Read more... )

I got so many people talking about Skip Beat! in my recent posts, I ended up borrowing Vols. 18+19 from my friend who owns manga tonight.
