There are so many things to talk about, but I just can't seem to talk about it. It's more like whenever I complain about the problems in my life, nobody seems to care. I used to call this "screaming into the wind", but such a beautiful mental image doesn't match the reality of this.
The lesson I must learn, I suppose, is to just tough it. If we're going to preach about self-reliance, then we should put our sermons to practice. After all, everyone's got shit in their lives, and if you don't want to help them, what makes you think they will help you?
Such twisted thinking can only come out naturally after you read manga non-stop for a week. I'll fill you in on some recent stuff.
-Love in The Mask by Han Yu-Rang [Korean Manhwa]
Corniest crap I ever read. Actually, not the corniest, but it's pretty high up there. Most of the manhwas by Han Yu-Rang and Hwang Mi-Ri aren't very good. They all have the same unrealistic plot and overly dramatic characters. However, when you're craving manga and none of your faves are being updated, this stuff can satiate your hunger.
Basically, Suh Hyu-Bin is a body guard for Yaeha. Although she hides her gender, Yunha, Chi Ho, Bi Rak, and even (the much later introduced) Ji Woon fall in love with her (whether they know it or not). Chi Ho and Ji Woon know that Hyu-Bin is a girl. Hyu-Bin is in love with Yunha, but Yaeha is also in love with him, so Hyu-Bin must suppress her feelings and support them. Meanwhile, this chick Ga Hyun who is in love with Yunha randomly bullies Yaeha. When she is finally rejected by Yunha after going to far with her bullying, she falls in love with Bi Rak. Some random crap is going on between the powerful families and gangs of Seoul, having something to do with Hyu-Bin pretending to be a relative of Yaeha and the crash caused by Yunha that killed first love and left his older brother unconscious. This was totally incomprehensible, right? Yeah, I thought so too.
-Girl In Heels by Chon Kye Young [Korean Manhwa]
She is drop-dead gorgeous, and all guys fall in love with her. However, after losing trust in her first love when she was a child, she tells herself that she will never trust some ever again.
He is the devil of his high school, a truly scary but cool guy. He is the lapdog of his crazed sister, whose face was disfigured after she was hit by a car (she was jealous of a crush he had on some teacher) when they were kids.
And they fall in love.
Unrealistic story, but cute. Their eyes kinda makes them look like aliens though...
-Durarara!! (Anime) Manga by Narita Ryohgo and Satorigi Akiyo
Fucking awesome. Must I say more? I just couldn't believe how good this series really was.
I wanted to post another picture, but it was so full of spoilers. I couldn't do that to someone who hasn't watched this yet! After all, the unexpected twists of the stories were so unbelievably addicting...
Bliss...
I've read and watched so much more than that lately, but I'll spare myself the burden of talking about them all and you the burden of reading what you won't read anyway.
I will, however, gloat at the fact that I got several friends addicted on Cheese in the Trap. I am Queen Otaku. Hear me rawr. x3
PS Looking for English dubbed versions online of Saiyuki Reload (Anime). If there's anyone who reads this and cares (I doubt there is), I'd appreciate the help!
