Yes I own quite amount of manga. I read more shoujo than any genre. Sometimes I check out the scans first before buying, but I often buy series out of nowhere just out of curiousity and would end up being a bad purchase.
Haha yeah we're quite the same. I am a shoujo lover. I check most of popular series but would end up not liking most of it.. I don't really like mainstream series.. Check out Crazy For You, Koi ni Ochiru and Hi ga Kuretemo Aruiteru. She mostly have one shots but these are the series that comes into my mind or I remembered. I like how Shiina Karuho would create a slow paced series yet intricately executed that doesn't bore me to death unlike other slow paced series.
Yeah I know that the EF series are from an Eroge game, but I don't really know if it is a computer game or not.. Seriously we are the same, I used to like dubbed series especially the anime back in the 90's it fits great but now I prefer subbed than dubbed. Yup, I adore, admire, pity, Yuuko's life story. It really made my heart ached when watching EF Tale of Melodies. I'm ok if they release the series without having it dubbed since Subbed is perfectly fine as it is.
I rarely read manga online. So the ones in my list that were published in English I own it. But the ones that are not license in English I read online.
In Kimi ni Todoke I stopped reading online in chapter 23 I think. Once I learned that it was license I didn't read any further. I learned about Kimi ni Todoke back in early 2008 when it was nominated for Kodansha Award. I got interested so I checked it out online. It was known as "Reaching You" and was scanlated by Entropy before. It was scanned online up to chapter 8 then went on hiatus with scanlating.. Yeah I really like it, at first I wasn't so sure since I'm picky about the art when it comes to reading manga. But Shiina Karuho's art grew on me. Eversince that I've read all of Miss Karuho's work.
Yep, EF series is the most visually stunning animated series I've ever seen. The animation, the imagery is just plain gorgeous. I also very much like the soundtrack. Even though plot wise its just typical but the artistry of the animation put it in a different level. Top notch all around. I wish it would get release in English someday unlike some series that gets license EF deserves it more IMO. Awe well for me both season were incredible but I am leaning towards more with EF A Tale of Melodies since I loved Yuuko's story. I mean I like Renji and Chihiro's story too but Miyako ruined it for me. LOL I am pro Hiro X Kei pairing. But in the second season the only thing that irks me is Mizuki and Kuze's age gap haha. But yeah the series is just awesome and visually top notch genius.
I'm doing good. Just trying to find time to read my ever piling shoujo manga. I need to read more of Kimi ni Todoke too! Now that I noticed you also like EF series, I adore this series alot.
3 at the moment, Sunday Monday and Tuesday nights. I'm there now until the last week of August before I go back to Stafford on the week after. About yourself? Forgot to ask but what department did they decide to put you in? Glad to hear that it's getting better though, I certainly know about the tedious part.
Well this was a holiday in England, went to Centre Parc's, but we usually go somewhere in Europe every other year, do you normally go on holiday in England then?
Yeah I got mine back a couple of weeks back, really happy, managed to get myself a 1:1 overall. Just hoping I can keep it up through my final year.
I've been working mostly, just continuing my night-shifts which I'm looking forward to finishing, I hope yours gets better for you. Had a weeks holiday though my Mum and brother which was nice, other than that it's just getting ready again for Uni.
Despite what I said in my my last message about not having time for it I decided just to go for it and started to teach myself to code in C++ which is going well and I'm glad I got round to it, I think I just thought that if I didn't do it now I might never start.
