Manga rental shop gets in a new shipment
Nov. 7th, 2003 11:04 pmUpon which NaNoProcrastination reaches operatic heights:
Blade of the Immortal 13
Vagabond 15-17
Gorgeous Carat 3-4
Prince of Tennis 1-5
And because some of this is new shipment schtuff still in its plastic wrap, I have to read all of it by Monday! Ha! *falls over* They had tons of other series too, like Gouhou Drug and Zeus and Kizuna and Saiyuki Reload (of course they decide to stock it after I'd fulminated curses at the distribution system for two years and bought it in Japanese. >_> Oy vey. At this point I'm just happy there is a Taiwanese Chinese version of Reload, of which I hadn't been certain at all), but there's only so much I can carry with my string-bean arms - months of yoga to the despite - and the ojisan was already giving me the beady eye. "Three days! That's Monday, you understand? Did you read the new posted rules yet?"
Actually I went for Peace Maker: the six tankoubon of the first series came in with the shipment, due to my powerful universe-warping manga attraction sk1ll0rz, but since I didn't grab them immediately last evening someone else did. :D;;; As you see, I console myself with other varieties of katana pr0n. TeniPuri because well it must be a fun read, or so many of you wouldn't like it so much. ...Learn? Of course I never learn. I think I honestly believe every single time that X series would be "a fun read", to which I could never lose large chunks of my time, soul and existence. Oh, well, perhaps it will be true this time - and perhaps pot-bellied pigs will fly (into the lily-white arms of Okita Souji).
(Watched PMK 2-3 last night, which went something like this:
*episode ends*
Sabina: ......
Sabina: *checks manga imprint*
Sabina: "Nope, still shounen. Not that that seems to be worth a hill of beans nowadays..."
My natural impulse is to go do some brush-up reading. I've been clamping down on it like mad, though, because I'm pretty sure my brain would be far less broken than it currently is if I didn't so much as know any of these people's names. Are there going to be actual Ishin innit? Should I ph33r? Stupid question. Of course I should ph33r.)
