mayoraaseiBefore the great OTZ....
Muahaha...it's been such a while since I last made an animated gif I've forgotten how to use ImageReady ==;;;; It all worked out in the end XD
I can't believe XXXHolic raws has so little furigana OTZ Where's all my furigana damn it!!! I'm kinda surprised I understood most of it....HAHAHA, poor Watanuki. Doumeki's rare moment of courteousness - giving him a birthday present - turned out to be an apron = a-not-so-subtle-demand for Watanuki to cook for him.
Poor guy XDDD
And what is it with foreigners and their obsession with Zhuang Zhou's "I dreamt that I was a butterfly and flew away, and while I flew I thought I was a butterfly, and I thought I was a butterfly that thought it was Zhuang Zhou. Then I woke up and I realised...I am both the butterfly and Zhuang Zhou." Which is probably the biggest OTZ statement in early recorded Chinese philosophy.
...Yes. CLAMP brings it up in XXXHolic. OTZ.
And then Sakura appears at the end of the chapter.........siiiiigh. I'm really hoping for a swift (thus less painful) finish to both series. Finally,I remembered CLAMP told us the two Rayearth guys' names: Geo and Lantis. Of course. How could I forget. ......>_>;
But my Japanese fails at the most important moments, as always ==;
Watanuki: "Isn't Yuuko-san going to give me a birthday present?" "Oh well, I'm happy just with this."
Yuuko: *Sad smile in front of a cloud of sakura petals* "Sou ne."
It's the first time we see her show ruefulness in front of Watanuki. Her absolute equal-price policy might be what saved her from getting shishkebabed by Fai, but it also means she can't give out any favours for free.
Kino's getting quicker with orders~~~ I went to Kino today on the way to Allan's Music and Lo! Vampire Knight 3 was out on the shelves. I remember when the first volume came out, I couldn't order it until the first orders arrived, the first orders consisted of 4 volumes that arrived 5 weeks later and was snapped up within the first day.
Kino has now fully appreciated its popularity and is giving it a Host Club type release (meaning it's actually on the new releases shelf now and not squished in the publisher's corner, and there's actually enough copies to go around to the first 10 buyers to get there).
Surprisingly, Penguin Kakumei 4 was also there. Was shocked! Less than a month after a release and the book's already in Australia! What next? Not charging AUD13 for a magazine that costs only 400yen? *Gasp*
Alright, I'll keep dreaming...
I suspect I'll start collecting Penguin Kakumei, simply because I'm lacking manga where the characters I give a damn about actually get together in the end ==;;;;;
