Sanctuary: V3 - £ £2.75 + 63p P&P
Sanctuary: V4 - £ £2.75 + 63p P&P

The auctions coincided with me reading the first two volumes, which I got from eBay many moons ago.

There was an auction for V1-9 that ended with no bidders. I regret not bidding on it because of the lack of picture and loose pages mention, now that I've seen how rare/expensive the remaining five volumes are... :/

Planet Ladder: 1-6 - £10.49

The read-up reminded me a little of PSME, and the shoujo cover art looks nice. Throw in the books being OOP and (supposedly) mint and there was no way I could resist.

-----

Kitchen Princess 2 £4.82
Crying Freeman: v. 1 £7.51
Kitchen Princess 1 £5.50
Shinobi Life: v. 2 £4.92
Shinobi Life: v. 3 £5.86
Four-Eyed Prince, Volume 2 £5.37
Shinobi Life: v. 4 £5.09
Shinobi Life: v. 5 4.96
Four-Eyed Prince, Volume 3 £5.06
Shinobi Life: v. 6 £5.94
Black God: v. 11 £5.39
My Girlfriend's a Geek: Fujoshi Kanojo v. 2 £5.39


Read my V1's of Four-Eyed Prince and Shinobi Life tonight; liking both. Prince is quite good, ignoring the fact it's centered around a guy treating a girl badly and the girl always coming back for more. Shinobi Life is a possible top ten contender - it having a distinctive shoujo art style and blending in a time slip/ninja subplot, as well as having a more adult touch lacking in most shoujo works I've checked out.

Kitchen Princess was purchased because I read Wild @ Heart and liked Ando's sense of humour that comes across in her art. I figured it was worth a go when all ten volumes are released.

Crying Freeman has Sanctuary's art and, to begin with at least, is meant to be pretty amazing. A 400 page opener is never a bad way to go.

As for the last two, they were Amazon pre-orders. TBD have them in-stock and, with the code, cheaper than Amazon, so...

--------



When I said there wasn't much I could see to use the 10% off codes on, clearly I was lying.

Tonight I read through another two of my V1's - Love Com and NG (No Good) Life this time getting attention.

Love Com I knew all about already, thanks to the opening five episodes of the anime, but I got much more out of reading black & white pages. As usual, the art looked better in its original form, and I wasn't bothered by the episode-to-episode pacing like I was with the anime. Its a story of friendship turning to love - the best kind of love story; without all the nervous blushing - and the only problem I can see is the story getting dragged out for too long. The comical non-stop arguing of the bickering leads is great, and the humour makes it constant fun to read. Right now, I want to read more, and it'll be hard to resist my desire when the volumes are all dangerously cheap with the 10% off code.

NG Life was even more enjoyable. The author took PSME's 'reincarnated as the opposite gender + were lovers in our previous lives' humour and created a rom-com around it. Only the lead recalls his tragic past; his (now male) reincarnated wife and (now female, and clearly in love with the lead) best friend remembering nothing. It's wordy, meaning it takes awhile to read, but it's made me smile and come close to tears already. Another definite top ten contender.

And, finally, as for Hero's Tales, it's a five volume, near complete work by Arakawa - FMA's now famous author. I'm not expecting anything anywhere near as good as FMA, but I can't see it turning out badly when it was created by someone with such talent. Even before it was completed, it earned itself an anime adaptation, after all!

...Outside of more Lovely Complex buying, I'm going to force myself to put the brakes on my 10% code rampage. Luckily, my CC bill only just arrived, leaving me with lots of time to pay for all these books, but there will be no end to me e-shopping unless I restrict myself. I *NEED* to sell some of my junk, instead of just buying more and more...

-------

V5 of Sanctuary for £10.70. It's the last volume I'll be able to buy (out of 9), and V3-4 arrived today.

Goong 1-6, for £13-14 off eBay.
