Did you perchance learn your "weighted score" system (used in your Kiss x Sis review) from me?

good job on kissxsis

perfect kissxsis review

Brilliant Kiss x Sis review which I completely agree with.

Nice "KXS" review.

You can get Hana Yori Dango on BakaBT. I still recommend it, yes it is quite heavy at times but I really love Tsukushi. I think her indecision with Tsukasa is mostly because she is terrified of him. That is the one thing about it that I didnt like. None of the guys were particularly likable and I think she was better off picking... none of them. I still think its worth the time though despite this.

My thoughts exactly on Paradise Kiss though. I was really blown away by it and its realistic portrayal of people and relationships. You might like Jellyfish Princess too if you enjoyed Paradise Kiss. Its has a kind of similar art style. Its not a big romance title but well its worth a view regardless.

I recommend Aoi Hana too. Its yuri, not sure if your into that kind of thing, but it is a great story. The manga is fabulous.

Well I am out of country right now so I am just giving your list a quick glance. You were a little rough on a few titles I would have suggested (like Itazura na Kiss) so I am not sure you will like all of these. For starters I understand your frustration with Kimi ni Todoke 2nd season, as brilliant as the first season was the misunderstandings and the way they dragged that out was very frustrating. The manga handled that situation so much better. Still the eventual payoff was worth it to me. It just was a very frustrating 8 or 9 episodes getting there. But if your a shoujo fan you know the payoff is often a long time coming, as they like to drag these things out. Thats frankly the most disappointing thing about the 2nd season was it did such a remarkble job of avoiding those cliches and then it becomes just like every other shoujo anime.

On Clannad... well yes I think your should watch it though, Despite its cute moe blobs (hey is a KyoAni production :P) and dating sim origins. Though I dont think it was a h-game. The thing is Clannad is the gold standard of harem anime. If all harems were like Clannad or Kanon for that matter the genre wouldnt have such a bad name. But the best part is sure its a bunch of girls interested in the same guy but the guy is what makes the show great. Hes not your indecisive guy who wont pick a girl and just strings the others along and face plant into their tits or walk in on them in the bath. It was heartwarming and touching. Both seasons made me mad, made me sad, made me happy, and made me cry. I cant recommend it enough. If your cant like Clannad well you just must really hate the harem concept lol.

I saw you hated Kanon too... now they are very similar though Clannad is MUCH better. However I saw you watched the original version, the one to see is the 2006 version made also by KyoAni. I do suggest it as they are very much alike however, Tomoya is much better lead.

Anyway I saw you got Nodame on your list, thats always my first suggestion as I love it alot. I didnt see Hana yori Dango though, thats a must see IMO. Its dated now and its a bit of that classic shoujo in the melodrama but the shows lead is without a doubt the best ever in shoujo and I found it extremely powerful.

Some others worth your time:

ef
Aishiteruze Baby
Paradise Kiss
Princess Tutu
Only Yesterday
Whisper of the Heart
The Girl Who Lept through time
Eikoku Koi Monogatari Emma

A couple others if you havent seen them, Revolutionary Girl Utena. Brilliant stuff and very influencial. I like watching things that inspired anime thats maybe better known. But its classic shoujo anime, though I wouldnt call it romance so much, I mean it is.. kinda but the art style and everything are classic shoujo. If you like Penguindrum, or if you havent seen it and liked Utena if you saw that one both would be enjoyable for you. if you didnt, well you probably wouldnt like either one.

My suggestion is one recently subbed from the 70s, Ace wo Nerae... I cant recommend this one enough. Its more of a shoujo sports melodrama than romance but I love it. Dated ofcourse visually but if your at all interested in the history of the anime genre and being entertained with a classic story then give it a try too.

Nice display picture!^^

non-fiction. If you can stand to finish it, then try an old book called "games people play". My friend said it was very good and gave an insight into how to manipulate people, like no other book. But i couldn't really bring myself to read it.

I was wondering if you ever read any of the works of David Gemmell. His style is precise and captivating.

lawise | 11-28-08, 1:37 PM
As 2 other people have already said, your review on Mushishi was masterfully worded. It was enjoyable to read such brilliant usage of the language. I hope you write plenty more reviews. I know they will be worthwhile.

Chelle | 01-30-08, 12:38 PM
I absolutely LOVED your Mushishi review. Very intelligent and very well worded. You said a lot of things that I had been trying to say in mine, but was unable. Thank you.
