Someone crashed a shopping cart into the back of our car at Trader Joes. This blonde couple stopped by and told us, and gave us a memo of the license plate too. I'm sorry, but it amused me more then upset me, even if our mini van was only a week old. (・∀・)

Anyway, we went to Japan Town in San Francisco yesterday. I should just go to real Japan, ( Read more... )

Yeah, manga is pretty expensive here, probably to offset the cost of importing. It kind of sucks. -_- I think a torrent of volume 16 was posted on hitman_reborn recently though!

And ugh, shots. D:

Yeah, I've read all the newest chapters, but I just want to read everything on paper. D: The computer isn't too bad to satisfy my curiousity, but it's not enough to satisfy my fangirling lol.

Really couldn't believe the prices. Ack. I think I'm going to be bankrupt if I stay here too long. orz

$5.50 is really expensive. ): I just went to Kinokuniya a few days before and bought some manga. >_> I couldn't make myself buy a lot though. I'm thinking I'll have to ask my relative to buy me some when she visits Japan. It'll be awhile before she goes though!

You forget that translated manga here sell for $10 each, but I guess you won't have to deal with that since you can read the raws? XD

Whoa. $10? That's like $200 for a 20 volume set. o.O
Yeah I only read raws. XD I can't stand the translated ones, actually. The characters seem so off-character in English. The way they speak is one of thier aspects, but in English there's only one way of speaking and it kind of ruins their character. :/ I used to read scanlations when I could only find chinese scans, but can't stand scanlations now too. I think I spent too much time in Japan and browsing Japanese sites lol.
