Just read your Whisper of the Heart review. What a coincidence, I just purchased that one online on Sunday!

One review that I can't post on my blog, but did for Organization ASG is for the first volume of

Drifters

since it is a preview copy that Dark Horse sent out to the press.

Hey I got an idea! You've read the manga for Nausicaa. Why not do a comparison/contrast?

That would require a whole post in and of itself. I've thought about it, but I'm not sure where it would fit in the whole scheme of my review system.

Your blog looks pretty awesome. I'm not familiar with any of the series you've posted reviews for so far, but they look pretty interesting. Once I'm not being such a lazy I'll have to take the time to actually read through everything rather then just scanning a few paragraphs. xD

Really? xD I feel bad. If you give me three of your absolutely favorite anime and/or manga I'll pick one of each to review.

I can't wait to see your opinion of Metropolis. That's one of my favorites. It's one of the movies that made me a Katsuhiro Otomo fan (the other one being Memories). And that was after being so disappointed with Akira.

Honestly I hated Metropolis the first time I saw it. I was kind of young, though, maybe 8 or 10? So I didn't really get the depths and symbolicism of what was going on. I just knew it had a not-happy ending.

Kyaah! I can't WAIT for your review for Frozen Essence! (I still need to get the other 11 endings, though XD!!)

Oh no, don't feel bad! I'm just very far behind in the world of anime and manga! I envy you all who have the time/patiance to shift through so many! I'm not sure if you've watched/read any of these, but three of my absolute favorites would be Hetalia: Axis Powers, Fruit's Basket and Wolf's Rain. This goes for both anime and manga since these are actually three of which I've seen both for and not just one or the other. xD

I did a review for the FruBa manga, but this gives me an excuse to see Hetalia. Since I love history, it will be awesome.

I obviously didn't look through the blog very well then. :lol: As a warning in Hetalia, there are moments that aren't portrayed exactly...in an accurate fashion. So if you find yourself becoming more curious about something I suggest looking it up as well. Hetalia is really more a comedy about humanized countries and national stereotypes with a bit of world history thrown in rather then about humanized countries and world history with a little comedy thrown in. xD Any other way can't wait to see your review!

Yeah, I know what it's about. I have friends who are Hetalia-crazy. So I've seen it without actually seen it xD

I don't mind about inaccuracies that much since I'm not a stickler, so I'm still excited.

Yay! I'm a bit of a Hetalia crazed-fan as well, I just feel the need to warn people now so they can't come up to me and say, "Leik omgz, that show was so stupud and inaccurate!!!!! Why did u tell me to watch it?" xD Not that I think you would do that, it's just a habit now.

My Hetalia friend turned her history teacher into a Hetalia fiend! xD I can understand if people are bothered by the inaccuracies. I have fallen into the habit of assuming anime is going to be inaccurate, so thankfully I won't have that issue :)
