Hagaren manga

I got the first three volumes of the Hagaren (Fullmetal Alchemist) manga – my first shounen manga in quite awhile! And it’s so good. I thought I might have some problems getting into the visuals of shounen manga again when I’ve been reading shoujo manga only for so long. But it’d probably be more difficult the other way round.
The plot’s not much different than in the TV show. They’ve changed the order of a few events in the anime but those changes aren’t that drastic. I’ve only read the first tankoubon so I’m not that far into the manga yet but I definitely like it a lot.

Onodera Akira returns!

I’m so glad. Onodera Akira’s official site had to be shut down a while ago after someone had sent some idiotic threat mails. Looks like the site might be back sooner or later! And Onodera-sensei is working on a yomikiri. Well, if that isn’t good news after Hayabusa has mysteriously vanished from Asuka (;_;)…!

Asuka excitement!!

I just got my copy of Asuka 3, yay! I flipped through it quickly aaaand there are two extremely pleasant bits of news in there that make my little fangirl heart jump for joy. Number one being the announcement of a new Yasei no Bara series!!! Aaah, I sense more Katsumoto-sensei greatness.

And number two is: They announced details of the seiyuu cast for the DNAngel anime TV series. I’m not a big fan of the manga BUT I’ll definitely have to watch that anime because Irino Miyu, HAKU’S SEIYUU!!!, is going to be the voice actor for Niwa Daisuke. I don’t know how many times I’ve rewatched Sen to Chihiro no kamikakushi just for all the Haku-adorableness, part of which stems from his lovely gentle voice… aaahh… Irino-kun!! =^-^=
