This will mostly hold reviews/reactions of manga, real books and scanlations, that I have read. 75% of which are yummy, yummy yaoi.
There will also be rants and raves about anime and life in general...

This week's releases

Yes, I know that there was no entry last week... Basically because there was no yaoi released last week... Not in this backward country anyway...
Under Grand Hotel vol 2 was officially released (it was available a month ago on akadot retail... they're special...). It wasn't available at the store, so I'm hoping that it's gonna be available at the store THIS week...

*takes a deeeeeeeeeeep breath*
YOSH! Onto this week's announced releases.
This comes from the site I go to to see which graphic novels are released this week, and those that are supposed to be released next week.
I haven't been to the store since I haven't been to work yet, so I don't know what they have for me this week.
Monday, there was a bus strike(stupid really), and I knew I wasn't going to be able to get a cab to work. If I did, the driver would probably ask me to add 100 pesos (about AU$2.50) to the fare. This may not be much, but I only usually have to pay up to 150 pesos. I was all dressed up and everything too... Tuesday was declared a holiday because of a muslim thing... 


Kiss Blue vol 2, finally, the conclusion to the story. More than 2 years between volumes x.x
This actually has one of the more typical story lines of BL (yup, this is just BL, not yaoi). Involving 2 best friends, one falls in love with the other, who is a playboy. The one in love tries to hide his feelings to be able to stay beside the other as his friend. I really liked this for some reason that escapes me at the moment. The art isn't what I'd rave about, but it's really good and decent compared to some others out there. Here's hoping that there's a wee bit of smutt in this one :D
This was scanlated, but I wasn't able to get it :(


Treasure vol 1. FINALLY! Another series that I reallly like. There are 4 volumes in all. And 1 more as a spin off, not sure if it's been licensed along with this one though.
This is about 2 cousins, one from the countryside and very innocent, the other city smart and loves bullying his cousin. As they say, boys bully the one they like *snicker*. The country boy has a few surprises up his sleeve. He is extremely sporty, inhumanly strong and a quick learner... but not that quick hehehe
I have all scanlations of course, I wouldn't be this excited otherwise.
Riyu Yamakami is one of the mangakas that I like ^_^

Now, the non yaoi... it's actually a novel, not a manga

Yashakiden vol 3. Written by the same mangaka that wrote the Vampire Hunter D series (I LUUUUUUUUUUUUURV D!)
Scary cover o.o;;
Like some other books that I own, this is one series that I have, but have not read yet... ^.^;;

There is no yaoi or BL or any other graphic novel on my list scheduled to be release next week, which is a good thing... I guess... I'm waiting for amazon to have a sale after thanksgiving, hoping that the stuff I have in my shopping cart would be on sale or be given a bigger discounted price...

Oh... I did get 1 manga and 1 novel last week...

Maoh: Juvenile Remix vol 3...

scary lookin dude o.o
I HOPE it's a dude o.o;;;


and Summer, Fireworks and My Corpse... sounds interesting, no? ;)

OK kiddies, this is it for now... I'm going to be reading the spin off of Treasure before I go to bed :D
