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!
Went to the store today and all 4 were actually going to be released!

Blue Sheep Reverie v3
Kizuna Deluxe v2
Love Syndrome
Then Comes Love
But wait! There's more!!! THREE more!!!
Maniac ni Aishite  

(murr... can't find a cover of vol 6! but I will post a pic when I do)
I'm still in search for volume 2!!!!

And Cold Fever novel. The third in the Cold novel series... 

First was Cold Sleep

then followed by Cold Light

I haven't been this excited about manga for a while now... And I do hope my package from amazon gets here this week!

I joined a contest by DMI... a collection contest!
Had I known about it sooner, I would have arranged all my manga in a way to show ALL of it, including the new ones. But since I didn't have time (I read about the contest on the last day for submission)... I had to use the last pictures I took of some of my manga when I actually had the time and was in the mood to fix them...

I know... I know... it's pretty lame... but it was the best that I could do at the last moment.
Oh, and they had a second deadline because there was a glitch with gmail (which of course I used to send them my entry). I only found out about this second deadline coz I had this (masochistic) itch to go to akadot retail to check out which manga they already have because they release manga 1 month ahead of everyone else... I accidentally clicked on the contest link... and that's when I read about the glitch and that the new deadline was again hours away, I think.... 
I hope that it did reach them on time. I still haven't gotten the confirmation email :(

This week's supposed releases

It hasn't been such a good start of the year for yaoi...

There was only 3.... I think...
You & Me, etc. by Blu released Feb 8, according to amazon. It didn't reach my country.... meh
Bokurani Matsuwaru

I have the scans, it's full of angst!  Baseball angst! It was nice, but I wouldn't read it if I was already feeling bad...

Close the Last Door v2. I was so excited when I saw that it was going to be released... But of course... it didn't get here! Damn...
And this was the last volume too!
Saigo no Door wo Shimero!  
It's sequel, Open the Door to Your Heart was released last year, and I was able to get it :)
Aiteru Door kara Shitsurei Shimasu yo 


No Touching at All - it's so sweet and cute and angsty! The way they meet for the first time is funny... This one I was able to get ^_^
And there was a part in the end where it wasn't scanlated! And it was so sweet!
Doushitemo Furetakunai  


This coming week looks promising though
Blue Sheep Reverie v3 - here I was thinking I could finally read it completely when I got volume 2... and then I find out there are AT LEAST 2 more volumes...
Blue Sheep Reverie v3
Kizuna deluxe v2 - I wasn't able to get the first volume here, but I will order it either on amazon or rightstuf. I am hoping this going to be released here in my country...
Kizuna Deluxe v2
Love Syndrome - only 1 chapter was scanlated, and I just re-read it... I am soooooooo looking forward to it *drool*. They're basically oneshots, except for the 3rd story which is chapters 3 and 4.
Love Syndrome
And... Then Comes Love. This probably has one of the most clueless semes there is... It was annoying at first, but I've read the scans a few times and I want it. I guess it grew on me. I just wish there was a story about Soeshima sempai.
Then Comes Love
So... that's it for now... Hopefully these titles will come out this week AND be released here in my neck of the woods...

Oh! Oh! I ordered manga and DVDs from amazon more than a month ago and tried a new way of shipping it to me. A friend and I shared the shipping cost of US$30. Not bad for a box with 16 items, but... it's taking so frigging long! It's supposed to arrive by Friday, March 4...
I want to be able to drool on my Black Butler DVDs.... Sebby!!!!
