SCHOOLS OUT! A WHOLE BUTT FULL OF MANGA'S FOR THE SUMMER!!!!!


SCHOOLS OUT FOR THE SUMMER!!! YAY! :D I finally don't have to wake up early and do homework at night. I'm soo happy!! Summer is just getting started! But.....I'll miss my friends! I'll see them next year! Well I'm not going anywhere exciting for the summer. I might get a job and so on. I want to earn a whole bunch of money and buy a lot of books!! :D

Since Exams and school was getting in my way, I didn't have time to post any thing about manga. I apologize! I was just really busy with school. Anyways, as I said in my last post, I decided to make up for my loss of manga recommendations and put it all together in one huge post. Sorry that I took long......I needed time to think about what manga's or anime's to put in this post. You know its not easy finding pictures and summarizing things that you haven't read or watched in such a long time. I know there isn't much but I'll post more up later. I'm saving some for other posts in the future. There is a lot of different Manga's/Anime's here in this post. Shonen and Shojo together! So scroll down to look for a good one to read or watch. They are not in order! Have fun!!! > x < Have a great summer!!!

Starting off with a Shonen......

This anime/manga is pretty awesome!! The story is really cool and good. It pulls me in and won't let me get bored. There is always something in this manga/anime. I love it! The art is alright. It seems kinda stiff but I love it anyways. The fighting scenes are pretty swift.

Summary: Miki Koishikawa lead a normal life until her parents decided to get a divorce in order to swap partners with a couple in Hawaii. At the dinner, she meets the other couple and their son, Yuu, who is about her age. She agrees to the sudden arrangement. At first Yuu was being a jerk and made fun of Miki. Little by little, she slowly accepts Yuu and opens up to him but she also finds herself falling for him.



I really love this manga/anime!! Its so.....so......interesting!! This is the first time that I've seen the supporting characters develop with the main characters. Its interesting! The art isn't so bad either considering its from a long time ago. I think 1992. Too bad Tokyopop doesn't publish anymore......I wanted to buy the manga!!

Summary: In a small village, there is a legend about a person born from a sakura tree one thousand years ago. Though she appeared human in form, she could not understand love, and was therefore cruel. She was eventually destroyed. Now, the mythical Sakura tree is going to attempt to create human life once again. This time it is up to two high school students, the incredibly handsome Tasuku and the love-allergic girl Honomi, to teach the Sakura Child about love.

Just to tell you, this manga doesn't really seem like a Shonen manga at all! From the beginning this manga had a kind of Shojo aura to it. I actually am curious of how this manga will turn out. So far it is pretty funny and good. I really love it! The art is pretty good. Its pretty cute. Also the characters are really funny. The character of each character clashes nicely together. They all balance out.

Running through the forest she meets a boy named Zen (I really love that name!). He helps her after he accidently eats a poisonous apple given to Shirayuki but she cured him. But what will happen to Shirayuki when Prince Raji sends his men to find her? Who is Zen?



The story is ok. A pretty typical shojo story. Its kinda like the story Snow white but a lot more different. It can be a bit slow at some parts but overall I really love it. Its really romantic....^_^ The art gets better and better and I really really really really really love it! Zen is pretty hot.....

Summary: (From mangafox.com) Akira Shiraishi, a young high school boy with feminine features, joins Blaue Rosen, the all-girl band that Mizuki Sakurazaka, an androgynous girl of the same age, performs lead electric guitar in.

Their high school life is anything but typical: Mizuki is the "prince" of her all-girl school while Akira is the "princess" of the neighboring all-boy school. A series of comical events brings them closer together, even as the prejudice of the people around them tries to pull them apart.


I'm telling you!! This manga seems like a BL (boys love) but it isn't!!! Its just a major Gender Bender so pay attention when you first read this!! This is what I kinda like about this manga. It makes me think its a Shonen Ai but its not. The story just makes me stop and think, "Are they both guys??" (Looks again) "Nope...Thank god". I have nothing against boys liking each other so don't judge me. I read some Shonen Ai manga's and I enjoy them, Thank you very much.

The art is just soo good and the story is really romantic and cute. I really love it! Man, the guys are sooooo extremely hot! Espicaly when Akira gets mad.......(melts) he is sooooooooooo hot~!!!!! KYAH~!!!

Summary: Ninako is a meek, gentle high school student. She has never been in love. Asking her friend, Daiki, who have some feelings for her, about how love feels like. She thinks he is a good guy but one day, on the train home from school, she bumps into Ren, a popular guy at school. With just a short conversation and his smile, she experiences a new feeling. Just what is this feeling? Ninako's first love is starting! 



The story really got me. I don't know why I hesitated to read this manga. Oh well. I first thought that it would turn into, I don't know, something mushy and crash and burn. I misjuged it.....the story is really cute, full of life and youth. The feeling of love is something every one wants to experience in their life time. I think the story is brilliant and well thought. I have never read anything like this manga.

The art caught me by surprise. I didn't expect much from the art but I found myself loving the art because its just really adorable and suits the manga. The way the Mangaka draws out the expressions of each character, its really good and amazing. :D

Although she seems to have a stalker's mentality, Misha claims she's an angel. Her mission: To make sure Kotarou is happy and safe. That's a tall order, since Misha seems to know almost nothing about life on Earth! What will become of the two of them, will love flurish from their friendship?!

Man!! The art for this manga is utterly adorable! I never knew that this anime/manga was a Shonen. The art made it seem like a Shojo manga/anime. As you know, the creator for Kamichama Karin is also the creator for Pita Ten.

The story is a bit depressing. I won't say anymore.....I still love it though. There is full fun and romance in it. It may seem like a young and carefree storyline but it also has its serious side. The ending for manga really upset me a bit but it made sense.

Summary: Tsukiko, the only girl who transferred to a school that was previously a all boys school. It was recently changed from all-boys school to co-ed. Since the area where the school is conveniently rural and the rather exclusive curriculums the school has, up until now the heroine is the only one female who enrolled to the school.


This anime is based on a game. I don't really know what to say.......the art is really amazing. So many hot guys.......drool. Looks like there is another style I want to master. Each episode is pretty short. I kinda don't get the storyline........I don't care, there are hot guys are pretty hot!!!

Summary: (From mangafox.com) The decrepit building was condemned long ago, but every time the owners try to tear it down, "accidents" start to happen-people get hurt, sometimes even killed. Mai Taniyama and her classmates have heard the rumors that the creepy old high school is haunted-possibly by ghosts from the Second World War. So one rainy day they gather at the told school to tell ghost stories, hoping to attract one of the suspected spirits.

No ghosts materialize, but Mai and her friends do meet Kazuya Shibuya, the handsome young owner of Shibuya Psychic Research, who's been hired to investigate paranormal activity at the school. Also at the scene are an exorcist, a Buddhist monk, a woman who can speak with the dead, and an outspoken Shinto priestess. Surely one of them will have the talents to solve this mystery!



I really love the story line!!!! It is really really really really really amazing!!!! Might be the most interesting and intriging shojo story line that I've ever read!!! I get really excited when it comes to Ghosts and stuff. I really enjoy the Fantasy,

You know what? This manga is pretty funny. The story line is out of this world!!!! How did the mangaka think of it???? Its absolutely amazing!! Its really cute and I've never read it before so I'm pretty happy with the story line. Not to mention how funny it is! :D The art is really breath taking because its really amazing and awesome! I once again have fallen in love with another art style. The girls eyes, the nice thin lines........its so swift, flexible and.....beautiful! I love it!!! > o <

Since their first meeting, Ritsuka finds himself drawn into a bizarre secret world where teams of two; the 'fighter' and 'sacrifice', combat each other using mystical verbal spells.

To be honest, this was my first ever Shonen Ai I've read. I was pretty young (11?) at the time and I never realized that this was a Shonen Ai. When I saw guys kissing, I was like "Wha?!" and then I went on because the storyline was really getting good. I didn't really care, I just read it. Nothing bad happens past kissing so if your scared of Yaoi like me sometimes then your good.

The story line was kinda confusing but I read it over again and I seemed to like it. The storyline is really suspenseful. Everytime I read a part of the manga and stop always make me want to have more because it stops at such a mysterious and suspenseful part. The art I really love. Its so cute and mature at the same time!

Summary: Yomiko Readman, also known as the Paper.
This is maybe my first time saying this but......the anime is wayyyy better than the manga! The story line is continued and there is more action in it. I enjoyed it more than the manga. In the manga it kinda just ended there. The OVA is where everything started and the anime continues from the OVA. If your interested, you must watch the OVA first then the anime! (Read or Die T.V) It might make more sense!

ROD WALLPAPER - rod-the-tv wallpaperDifferences between manga and anime- (Manga) Continues and then stops. Still very interesting and good but it just ends. People say that Read or Die is a sequel to Read or Dream but not entirely. Its still good but the anime is more interesting. The manga for Read or Dream have different characters and a storyline in comparison to the manga of Read of Die. (Anime) Might be a complete different story than the manga. But the story continues and goes into more in depth. Characters of Read or Dream and Read or Die cross in the anime.
By the way, there is a sequel to Read or Die. Its called Read or Dream. The OVA mainly focuses on Yomiko Readman (Original main character- Read or Die) then the anime focuses on the three main characters in Read or Dream. Here I'll even do a recommendation!

They serve a variety of clients, seeking lost books, pets, and even lost authors! Maggie and Michelle's expansive book budget often causes them to be out of money, and when they are not working they argue with Anita about how to maintain the apartment and eat.

Ok just to clarify, you must watch the Read or Die OVA then watch the Movie then Read or Die T.V. The OVA is where everything first happened and its where the original Read or Die main character appears in- Yomiko Readman. She appears in both the OVA and Movie but disappears in the T.V version for awhile. In the beginning of Read or Die T.V, you will meet Read or Dream's three main characters- Michelle, Anita and Maggie.

Summary: High school girl, Karin Maaka (pronounced Ma-Aka!) happens to be a vampire.......not just a ordinary vampire, a vampire that GIVES blood. Instead of sucking blood like a normal vampire, she gives her victims blood. (Crazy right?) Once a month she expriences intense bleeding from her nose (I'm serious, it gushes out and believe me, its not a normal human thing). Last time she checked, giving HER blood to her victims make them more positive and happy. To make things more un-normal, a transfer student transfers to her school. Apparently Karin's blood reacts to him which makes her blood gush out even faster, even on normal days. What is going on?

I really love this manga......its really funny! The storyline is pretty brilliant and great! Also the art is good too! I love who Yuna Kagesaki draws the eyes......its really pretty!! Even the characters expressions are really entertaining to look at. Its funny! The characters character are just brilliant.
I think the manga is better....wait a second.......the manga IS better!! The anime just scared the life out of me. It contained alot more nudity than the manga. Its really scary for me.

This manga/anime is really really really really beautiful!!!! YOU MUST WATCH IT!! Its sooo beautiful and touching! When they get ghosts to pass on......I think its a beautiful thing. I really love the beautiful, peaceful piano playing in the background......sorry I just had to mention that.

The art and animation.......its great! The storyline is awesome!! :D

Magical mercenaries are all around, and the hair-triggered Orphen is no stranger to a good fight, so he'll have to cast his spells in record time to stay in the game of magic in Orphen.

Orphen - orphen photo
This anime/manga is pretty interesting. I don't know how I got into this one. I guess the art and the storyline got me into it. There is a couple differences in the manga and the anime. I won't name alot but there is one that I wanted to mention. I'm sorry if I get a few things wrong. Its been such a long time since I've read the manga and watched to anime. Forgive me!

The storyline is a bit different in the anime. All lot happens and the storyline goes a different direction. I can't say anything more because it would contain a major spoiler but I just wanted to clarify, the storyline is different in the anime! The manga's storyline is bit more carefree and it starts out before the anime's storyline. But both the manga and anime have pretty dark storylines. I really enjoy the mystery, comedy and the magic in the storyline.

The art is pretty good. Its average. The animation is good when it comes to the fighting scenes. I'm not going to complain about it. Orphen in the anime is pretty hot. I love him! He is soooo cool! :D

Arigatou~!!

Song Challenge Day 23! A song you want to play at you're wedding


Wedding?? Of course I plan on getting married in the future but a song to play at MY wedding?? I certainly don't know!! Doesn't it all depend on who you're marrying? Or where? Oh! Ohhh!!! You know where I want to get married??? I want to get married in Japan!!! :D You know how I'm going to marry??? I don't know but he has to be nice and......hot. I'm sorry for being shallow but I'm just saying my dream guy! ^_^


Speaking of Dreams.......I kinda want this song at my wedding! Its called Kibou Yell by NEWS. The song is full of energy and its really fun to dance to! The song gets stuck in your head for a while......but the problem is, its kinda difficult to find the song on Youtube and the one I posted on my blog somewhere has been deleted from Youtube......I'm soo sad! This song is really amazing and why would they delete it?!?!

Anyways, I finally found it but the video doesn't have to do with anything I have to say. Its the song I wanted and everywhere I looked, the song was either a cover by a horrible singer or a chipmuck version which is pretty annoying. I was extremely happy when I found the video with the normal singers!!!

Well without further ado, listen to the song!!!

Kibou Yell by NEWS



English Lyrics!

Hooray! Hooray! I want to send this

We'll share what we can do, yeah, you and me

Even if the times change, the worth of the tears you shed
Won't change, always a precious treasure

Fight for win. Get break and thru

Manga of the Week! Ranma 1/2

I haven't been posting anything manga related.....I'm sorry!! Believe me, I'm writing a post with TONS of manga to read and anime's to watch over the summer. Its just taking long so wait! In the meantime.....please read this post about Ranma 1/2. I know its old but really, its actually a great manga/anime. I really love it!

I couldn't find a reason why I didn't want to watch the anime or read the manga. I guess I didn't come across it or have the interest to. I mainly thought it would crash and burn and suck really bad because it was an old manga/anime (maybe just the art bothered me) but I totally thought wrong. Man, I've to stop thinking like this!

Summary: 16 year old Ranma Saotome is a guy trained in Martial Arts since childhood. Along with his father (Genma), they both went to China to train. Apparently they both fell into a cursed spring in Jusenkyo. Funny thing is, whoever falls in the spring will take form of whoever or whatever drowned the spring thousands of years ago. Whenever the cursed one is in contact with cold water, they will turn into that form. Fortunately, in contact with hot water, they turn back to their normal selves. Genma fell into the spring of the Drowned Panda (he turns into a panda now) and Ranma fell into the spring of the Drowned Girl, therefore he will turn into a girl when in contact with water. Funny yet?

Things get worse for Ranma when he finds out that he is engaged to his fathers friend, Soun Tendo's daughter. Soun has three daughters, Kasumi, Nibiki, and the guy hater, Akane. Since Akane is Ranma's age, she is chosen to be the bride. Of course Akane and Ranma hate the fact that they are being forced into this. Akane is a tomboy and hates guys. Ranma just don't it. They both hate each other! Will love ever blossom from this relationship?

I was bored one night and I couldn't sleep so I looked around for some kind of Gender Bender, Romantic and funny anime to watch. I came across Ranma 1/2. For awhile I stopped myself from watching this and I don't know why. I decided to get over it and watched it........Dubbed. I was on my siblings Ipod touch and I couldn't watch it Subbed. I went on with it and I almost died. I didn't mind the Dub (I love the Ranma's guy dub, he seems hot) so much because it seemed to match the characters character.

The reason why I almost died because the anime is just freaking funny! It was like, maybe midnight and I was supposed to be sleeping but I ended up watching an anime. I couldn't laugh to loud and that was pretty hard.

One second Ranma is a guy and then he comes across water. Great. I love how there is water somewhere in the anime and he happens to turn into a girl every time. Its really funny. The way the comedy comes into play is greatly used. It comes at the right time. Romance slowly develops, along with the characters. Its great how it goes at the right pace. It takes it time. Not to slow or too fast. I hate it when some manga's or anime's rush things like character development or Romance. Or slow things down where you can really tell they are in love and stuff but there is no development.

The art is memorable. I can tell this is Rumiko Takahashi's work by the style but there is something about it that makes it really intriguing. I can't put my finger on it......I just don't know. Is it how old the art is? Or it just sticks in my head? I don't know. I think its really cute, fits perfectly with the storyline and really amazing considering its made in 1987.


The storyline is really interesting! Its totally out of this world. Totally new to me! The fighting scenes are cool and the characters are really unique. Once you meet another character, it will cause the main character to develop and change. You will see differences in their actions and ARGH! Man, I love the love triangles and complicated-ness. I know this anime/manga seems wayy to long but hey, it makes time for the characters and story to develop nicely. I love it! Do I have anything else to say about the storyline? Hmm.......Its just really great and full of Comedy and Romance. The story is sooooo cute and I enjoy it soo much.


As I've said this manga/anime is pretty old. The animation is pretty good. :D Please, don't let how old the manga/anime is get to you. If you looked at it at a different perspective, there would be no difference.



Now your wondering......Do I like it better than Inuyasha? I'm not going to answer because I can't decide. They are both great works by Rumiko Takahashi and I can't decide! They both have great humor, cute romance and lots of interesting action. Ranma 1/2 is more popular with the females while Inuyasha is with males. If you watched or read Inuyasha and Ranma 1/2.......comment and tell me what you think! Please....no negitive comments!!

Oh! One last thing........I really love Ranma!!! He is soooo cool!!!!

(looks at my post once again) Wow.......I typed alot......that a first. Please try reading the manga or watching the anime!! I guarantee you, you will love it!

Arigatou~!!

Well.......I was on Youtube and I was listening to Ouran Highschool Host club anime themes and I scroll down........(I always love to read the comments) then I suddenly spot a comment saying that there is a Ouran Higschool Host club drama that is coming out soon. I was like, OH MY GOSH!! I didn't believe it at first then I looked it up on google and there is was, on Wikipedia, the information on the new drama. I'm freaking out!!! KYAA~!!!!

The drama will air on July 22, 2011 Friday. I can't wait!!!!! I'm really curious how this drama will turn out.......cheesy? What am I talking about?? Every Japanese Drama usually turn out to be cheesy!! Of course this drama will include Romance, Comedy and Gender Bender! YAY!! :D


File:Yamamoto Yusuke.jpgYou know what I did first after I found out that O.H.S.H.C will have a drama? I looked for the person who was playing Tamaki!! You know why? Because I want to see if he is worthy of playing Tamaki because......Tamaki's character is really unique and overly funny. I wanted to see what he looked like. Look at the picture on the left!! He isn't too bad looking and he is pretty hot........anyways! What's his name?? Lets see.....Yamamoto Yusuke! I don't really know who he is but he played Kayashima Taiki in the drama, Hana Kimi. That's all I know about him....

Haruhi will be played by Haruna Kawaguchi. She was in the drama Yankee-kun to Megane-chan.

Wait a sec!!! Who will play the Hikaru and Kaoru???? Hmmm.....it says....Takagi Shinpei and Takagi Manpei......interesting. It seems like they are siblings....wait a sec, they are! ^_^ What about Honey senpai????? Chiba Yudai.........OH MY GOSH!!! He seems really cute!!!! ARGH!! I really want to watch this drama right now!! I hope they sub this drama.........I really look forward to this drama!! :D I hope they don't ruin though.....I would kill someone if they did!

Arigatou~!!

Song Challenge Day 22! A song you listen to when you're sad

This is pretty depressing, here I am, sitting here happily, reading manga and then the challenge today is 'a song you listen to when you're sad'. I'm pretty happy right now and now a sad subject is brought up. How depressing.......anyways! I always cheer myself up or friends do. What would you do when you're sad? I would probably do something to take my mind off of it or just cry. You know, its bad to keep the pain in. I'm sorry, I just had to tell the world that! :D



When I'm sad I listen to any song. I don't really care what the song is, as long as they make me happy. I love listening to Tegomass, NEWS.....or any boy bands. They always cheer me up! Plus all of them are pretty hot.......

Song Challenge Day 18! A song that you wish you heard on the radio



As you can tell I really really really really really love Japanese songs. I want to hear Japanese songs on the radio. That doesn't really happen. Too bad I don't live in Japan........I want to go there soooo bad!! It would be soo much fun! > x <  My goal in life is to visit Japan once before I die! I want to see the pretty Sakura, go to the bookstore to buy a whole bunch of Manga's that can't be sold in Canada and US and go to the Music store and buy sweet Japanese music, eat food like Sushi and.......meet a whole ton of hot Japanese guys!! :D I know I'm pretty pathetic.....but I do also have goals in life! I want to make a bunch of friends!



There is just sooo many songs I want to hear on the radio......well in kinda depends on the radio station you listen too. It would be cool to hear Japanese music on the radio though. There is a couple songs I want to hear on the radio.......I can't pick one! I have several......^_^ but for now I'll just put two. It won't kill anyone!

Sakura by Ketsumeishi


A fellow blogger recommended me the song "Sakura" by Ketsumeishi. I was really happy because she commented on my blog (that makes me really really extremely happy) and she recommended a really really really outstanding song. I just fell in love with the song. Its soo beautiful! Thank you SuicideMunchkin!
