Chobits & RahXephon

I finally finished watching CLAMP’s Chobits! Oh what a cute series it was. I’m really glad I decided to watch it. I’m not a big fan of Clamp’s other shounen titles, but this one was really good from episode 1 till the end. It was really nice to have a cozy, easy-going series to watch inbetween the heavier stuff like RahXephon.

Which reminds me, I still haven’t finished RahXephon -_- I always take my time with the anime I like. And RahXephon’s definitely one of them. I haven’t enjoyed a mecha anime series that much in quite a while! I still can’t watch more than 3 episodes of it in a row because it’s so exhausting to follow the storyline, but it’s so cool and brilliant and its atmosphere makes me all melancholic. Love it. Everyone into intelligent sci-fi anime should watch this show!

Takanashi Mitsuba’s new manga, new .hack series?

I can hardly wait for Betsuma 1. Issue 12 has just come out but it’s so hard already to wait till mid December for the January issue. Takanashi Mitsuba’s new manga will start in that issue! The preview pics look awesome, I think it’s going to be a really cool series. I was a bit said when Akuma de sourou ended because it’s been running for so long and I became really fond of it. So now I hope that Takanashi-sensei’s new title will be just as good or even better. Her style has changed a bit though. I know that most people thought that her noses looked so ugly but I really got used to her style and now she draws noses like everyone else does, oh well. (Not like that’s really important… -_-;;)

Oh and I ordered Newtype 12 because on Kadokawa’s website they mentioned a new .hack TV series for January! I’m not sure if that’s true but that would be just… like, there’s no word to describe the greatness o_O

Asuka, Katsumo Kasane’s Yasei no bara

My fresh copy of Asuka 12 just got here. I’m really really enjoying Yasei no Bara by Katsumoto Kasane-sensei. But why is it that all the series I like end up being too short? Even though it just started a couple of issues ago, Yasei no bara finishes in Asuka 1/03 which means only one more chapter ;_;
