Skip Beat, Barajou no Kiss, NaNoWriMo

Skip Beat!
Caught up with Skip Beat! yesterday. I was around 13 chapters behind (I think I left off around 163 or so). The current arc is intense! I'm also glad I had a lot of chapters saved up because now I'm back to...waiting.

Ahhh I'm behind for both skip beat and barajou no kiss. Mutsuki is my favourite too though! Honestly I read that manga cause i heard he was voiced by tsuda haha ;///;

[lucathia_rykatu]

I'm looking forward to listening to the drama CDs! :) I wonder what kind of voice Tsuda used for him.

[tsuruhime]

the drama CD seems to have a lot of good VAs! Fukujun as well if I remember right? :D

And oh, I do hope you have time to get your story polished and printed ;;

[lucathia_rykatu]

I started listening to them! Only listened to the first one so far. Fukujun voices soft-spoken Seiran. Reminds me of his role as Shimizu from La Corda d'Oro. From the drama CD, I seem to like Kaede more. XD; I like his attitude there!

I edited my story some more yesterday and will be doing the same today... I keep getting distracted and playing around with the formatting instead when I really should leave that for last. :'D I hope I finish. .___.

AHHHHH I love Skip Beat as well! I'm really interested to see where this arc takes us. :)

Kyoko and Ren are both pretty cool in the current arc (but then, they were also cool in the previous arcs). Really love all of their roles. :D

The offer doesn't end until the 30th! But CreateSpace seems to be kinda strict on the format of what the book will be laid out as (what's the page size going to be, the margins of the text [I'd assume], someone will check if the format's okay etc) but they do have a nice template you can use. :3

*cheers you on*

I checked when the deadline was after posting this since I was a little worried! XD; I haven't created an account yet at CreateSpace though. Hm, I think I'd end up playing around with that instead of actually writing.

Hopefully I can get something presentable. XD

You HAVE to get it printed! Even if the story isn't finished or polished. It's a souvenir of all your hard work during November. I can't wait to see it!

[lucathia_rykatu]

But printing an incomplete story is so weird! D: I'm thinking I'll try editing the first part and just print that... it does actually conclude before the second part starts.

I tried watching Skip Beat but I can't stand it. I can't fathom it. I mean she "supposedly" join the modeling world so she can get back at her ex-boyfriend who:

1. Cheated on her out of her money
2. Cheated on her

But she STILL has feelings for him and there's the other guy. Conveniently he's the childhood guy who comforts her when she was crying due to her boyfriend action when she was young. I don't remember their names though lol.

Anyways I far as I see the story leaning, she probably end up picking the other guy over her ex. I mean she has to or people will really hate the ending.

Oh concerning Barajou the mangaka does Yaoi <3. But her yaoi artwork doesn't really compare to what I've seen in Barajou.

[lucathia_rykatu]

I was looking to see if the mangaka did anything else. Was a little surprised to see she also does yaoi! XD; Barajou is so typically shoujo.

[lucathia_rykatu]

A lot of it is about her locking her feelings away. After 160 something chapters, her feelings are still locked away. (I don't know if I should find that amazing or frustrating!) The mangaka is skilled though for being able to tease readers this long. I enjoy the parts about Kyoko and her job more than the romance though. |D Especially since I'm not entirely rooting for Kyoko and Ren (the new guy, not her ex).

Did you watch all of the anime? :3 Haha, it is pretty convenient that Ren happens to have met Kyoko in the past and even comforted her.

I believe that's where the story is going! And I feel that most people support Kyoko x Ren instead of her with her ex.
