A whole new addiction

[lesbiassparrow]

Thanks to ebay I will soon be the proud owner of two dramas:

One is Pride, which combines two of my loves, melodrama and hockey. It's Japanese and comes recommended by ginger001; as soon I saw the words hockey I knew I had to own it. dangermousie is this one you've seen

Oh! I really hope you like Pride! :S ;) I really like it and Takuya part Haru is one of my favorites!

Hope to read you did enjoy it ;) Happy watching!

I do not know how I cannot like it. IT HAS HOCKEY AND PRETTY PEOPLE AND ANGST.

Haven't seen pride yet, but it's on my short list.

They never sell manga as a collected volume (even with 15 volumes, it would be a crazily thick book and some of them go for much longer. The manga on which Meteor Garden is based in 36 volumes). Sorry.

Re: anime. I understand. Not everyone's cup of tea. I honestly have no idea if I would have liked the live action version of it if I didn't like the anime one so much, but I would still think that the girl who plays the lead in that one cannot act.

I really recommend Goong, if you don't mind less angst.

I saw your pic spam of Goong...it looks great, though I am so fond of the angst that I am not sure. I should see what price it is on ebay, though.

I will look for some anime on youtube (I wonder if they have Peach Girl?) and see how I go after that.

[dangermousie]

They have PG on youtube. Goong should have some angst, but I am in early stages so it hasn't hit yet.

[lesbiassparrow]

I looked for and at PG. I think probably the anime is not my thing...but I don't mind the glimpses I've got of the live one. This is probably because I have no taste.
