Kotaro Makaritoru (manga)

This is one old manga that i'll never get tired of. seriously. it has everything that i could want for in a manga, maybe a little too much. action, humor, romance, great illustrations(albeit old fashioned) yum yum, the ingredients needed for mangas that i like.
Kotaro Shindo- your average perverted high school boy who lacks common sense and any inhibitions whatsoever. but there's just one thing. he's a fighting genius, a karate expert descended from a long line of ninjas. he's always getting into trouble with school officials and peeping at girls or trying to steal their panties especially Mayumi's, his childhood friend. he's protective of 3 things-his reallly long hair, his panty collection and Mayumi. This story is about his adventures.
There is some pervertness in this story, some ecchi, so some of you might be put off. but that's also what makes this story so original. the drawing, though not as good as the ones nowadays, but personally, i loved the drawings. i think it's considered good in earlier times when it just came out.
the story is quite comedic initially but as the series progresses, it gets serious. the only thing that i am not satisfied with is that it's not completeeee!!! i mean, the story has been finished by the mangaka if i'm not wrong. it's just that it hasn't been scanned online completely. same goes for its sequels, shin kotaro makaritoru and kotaro makaritoru l. i'm sooo hoping that it will get scanlated but seems like that will just remain a dream. well i read this on mangafox so you guys might wanna read it too if you have the time. i have repeated this i don't know how many times already now. that's how much i liked this manga. oh i'm just praying for some kind soul to complete the whole series. enjoy

Older animes i've been watching...

Laziness!!! If that was a disease, i'd have been dead ages ago. I hate to admit it but oh well, man am i lazy. And it's not just house work and all, it applies to writing too. I've watched like I don't know how many animes and dramas, read how many mangas, and yet, i felt too lazy to write about them. sheesh.
Even now, i am feeling really lazy so i guess this post will just be a short one eehehe hmm Dragonaut: the resonance - an anime that i watched, and it's the type that i am into, with action, romance (this is like a must for me, in mangas and animes) and humor all in one. i don't think many will like it as i have to admit, the plot or something was average. but the dragons were sure cute^_^
Turn A gundam(i think, or was it after war gundam???oh well, we can just google it or whatever) - suprisingly for quite an old anime, i actually enjoyed it, good mixture of action and romance as well as comedy. the fight scenes were pretty cool, in fact, i enjoyed this gundam lots.
Bokke-san - a manga that i enjoyed, it was short and sweet you could say, you can find this one on mangafox. there was action too, i had hoped that it could have been longer with the characters developing and all, but i'm quite ok with this too.
Well there are others that i watched as well, but i seem to have forgotten what they are. pathetic memory i have here BI oh well, enjoy urselves.

Get Love (manga)


A really fluffy read for manga lovers. It's a light hearted manga that makes your heart go awww, how cute or sweet:D Personally, i didn't think i'd enjoy it that much, in fact, i had even skipped the manga to read others. But i came back because i had nothing better to do you could say. Of course, there were tons of other things i was doing at the same time, just that i had nothing to read:P

Sagara Yuki is a high school student who's the shortest boy in his class as well as in his soccer club. Moriyama Miki is the girl who only has eyes for this short but cute boy. This is a manga that shows their budding romance and how they conquer obstacles to their love.

It's really funny, haha this manga, even now, i just re read one chapter cos i hadn't read it yet, and yea, i was laughing to myself lol

So if you guys are looking for something to relieve your stressed head or heart, then this might be one of my recommendations. What i liked the most is that their feelings are both mutual, and the manga is more of how they fall in love even more and the 'obstacles' they have when they're beginning to get closer lol

It's not complete yet but who cares, i think i'd still read it even if it were updated months later. ^_^

One Pound Gospel (j.drama)

I had seen Kamenashi Kazuya in other serials before but the only thing that was stuck in my head about him was his unique features you could say. I thought his acting was ok then. So when I watched this series, I was quite surprised to see him doing this type of role and by this i mean a hyperactive kinda guy. He looks as if sullen roles suit him better or something i guess. hehe just a biased opinion of mine, please don't kill me guys>_< In this drama, hatanaka is a skilled boxer but because of his inability to control his appetite, he faces a string of defeats as it always puts him in a heavier weight class. One day, he collapses due to working out excessively and is found by a naive nun, sister angela. He immediately finds himself interested in her and pursues her.

This is actually quite a light hearted series so if you're looking for some laughs, then this is quite a good one. Rather than boxing, it's mainly hatanaka chasing after sister angela. hehehe hatanaka is quite a hyper character and a cute type i guess so i bet it must have been tough to act like that for so long. some more, he shouted a lot in the drama hehe so the actor's voice must have been hoarse. our sister angela is innocent but that doesn't mean that she's stupid or anything. she's got a mind of her own hehe and i felt that the two actors suited their roles quite well. There were some cute moments of both the characters that made me go 'ow cuteee'
Even the supporting characters were really good. His boxer friends as well as the chairman and the trainer, and also nori chan, she's working at the same part time job as hatanaka and has a crush on him. she made some scenes really good too hehehe i still laugh when i recall them.
Of course, i would have to say that the story plot is not much but since this drama is a comedy and quite light hearted, in fact, it's similar to lots of shoujo mangas that i read, i'm fine with the show. It's so endearing how hatanaka likes sister angela so much that all his expressions change at the mention of her name lol And i'm quite satisfied with the ending too. Well anyway, i personally enjoyed this series very much so if you want to just lighten up your heart, then you might try out this one.

Kodocha (manga)

I loved it! What more can I say? It might not be for many of you because the art is a little on the cutesy side and all, but it had everything that I liked and disliked you could say. Well, it's been a few days since I completed this manga so I kind of forgot what actually happened but you guys can read and find out more.
Sana, a child actress, is your bright girl who likes to help people in despair and all. Hayama, the school bully, is the opposite in that he's too gloomy and more or less expressionless. These two opposites attract nonetheless due to lots of events but the girl is too dense-_- giving the guy a big headache lol.
Well, if it was just your cute shoujo type of story, maybe I wouldn't be so in awe. But this story also had drama, the characters developed and all. I especially loved the character development here. The mangaka(author) did a wonderful job I felt. The story made me frustrated at times, made me sad, made me laugh, and made me embarassed in their place too. Their looks, their expressions were priceless hehe what more can I say. It didn't have as much action as I would have liked but it still was good.
If you just click on its title on my blog here, you'll actually be directed to the site itself immediately. I finally added this feature for the later part of my blogs. The first few ones don't have them. I'm too lazy:P Well, I hope you people can enjoy this one as much as I did.

Bio-Meat Nectar (manga)

This series is totally different from those that I usually read. This has lots of blood, gore, horror, adventure and so on. There is some romance but not as much as I'd like. But despite all this, I actually enjoyed it.
A bio engineered animal that eats basically anything is produced to be later killed and given to humanity as food. But it gets loose in Tokyo and a killing spree starts. 4 kids survive the horror where it first starts and the story goes from there.
The story might not sound that interesting and even the art is not as luring as what I would have preferred. But somehow, I got compelled to read this. And now, I actually enjoyed myself. I was so hooked on it. I kept wanting to know, oh no, how are they going to survive this. I wonder what will happen now that it's over and all the little things like that.
New characters are also introduced later on. The story progresses to the future as well. As I kept reading further, I always had goosebumps at times where it got really interesting or my heart would beat really fast. It was great. The bond between the main characters was really admirable. I always felt happy when they were together. I'd totally recommend this series but it's not for the faint hearted. Remember, it has gore here, and of course adventure. It also has humor at times surprisingly. It is complete and you can find it online at onemanga and mangafox. Enjoy like I did!^_^

Barairo My Honey

This one is one really sweeet manga. I liked it. The art is great, if you're like me that is. ehehe It's similar to Midnight Secretary. And the manga is not that long too; 13 chapters with 2 extras. Just nice.
Our guy is really hot (and cute:P) and our gal is misleading. hehe meaning that she looks sweet and innocent but has a strong heart. She's also very shrewd. grins. add to these, there's a cute tiger. Wonder what this is about?Read the manga hehehe
Well, this series has everything in it. good looks, romance, humor and a little bit of action though not much. It's nice to see our guy jealous hehe He's too robotic, always suppressing his emotions so seeing those little feelings on him is like wowww. hehe I read it long ago before, but I read it a second time too recently. Was too lazy to write about it and only doing so now since I'm in the mood. grins oh well, hope you enjoy this series. You can find it on onemanga by the way and it's complete and online for free.^_^

Dream Saga (manga)

I just finished reading this manga. It's more of a fantasy, adventure based fairy tale. If you're the type that don't really like cute shojo mangas, then maybe this might not really be your cup of tea though I personally enjoyed it myself. Initially, I just wanted to pass time but as it went on, it became even better.
It's kind of hard to summarise what the manga is about but I'll try. Our main protagonist is a girl who is able to go back and forth from the human world to the dream world. Basically, she needs to save both worlds with the help of five (I think) other friends who are able to go back and forth as well.
The art is average I guess, though I did like it. But the good thing is, not only does it have action, it also has comedy, romance and a fantasy feeling. Thus, it's a fantasy series. hehe And if you guys don't really like your manga to be really long, then this might be for you as well. It only has till 27 chapters or 5 volumes. You can find this manga online at mangafox. It's complete. Hope you all enjoy this.

Inuyasha (manga)

Well, i'm sure many of you have definitely heard of this one. And the good news is that it's finally finished. ^_^ I mean the whole volume comic or whatever, it is done, complete. You should be able to find it at mangafox. It's all online so you don't have to worry about downloading. I'm not sure if onemanga has uploaded it but you can check them out. After so long, it's finally finished.
It was a good read though in the later parts, maybe the art somehow changed a little, i don't know. You can even find it in anime as i'm sure most of you know. You can find it in youtube confirmed, veoh should have it as well though not sure about crunchyroll. It's been long since i went there. i just went there recently to check out a movie which i did find^^. Anyway, hope you all enjoy yourselves.

Tokyo Crazy Paradise (manga)

I wonder if any of you have heard of this one. hehehe this manga is so hilarious, I realllly recommend it. Tsukasa (a girl) is brought up as a boy in order to protect herself in the crime filled world especially against girls. hehe Ryuji, a fellow classmate, is a yakuza or gangster of high status. (in gangster world of course hehe) Due to some events, Tsukasa becomes a bodyguard for Ryuji. What happens to these two people from different worlds??? Read on to find out. I can guarantee you that this manga will have you up in stiches.
Initially, I didn't really feel like reading this manga as the art was not really my type. But the guy did look handsome at times and the girl was just too cute so I decided to continue. hehe Lo and behold, I actually became addicted. In fact, when there are no new mangas or none updated for me to read and I'm quite free, I read that again. I don't know how many times I've re-read it. hehehe
You can find the complete manga in onemanga.com or mangafox too I think. Let me know how you find it once you've read it. I hope you enjoy this one as much as I did.
