2 Winners and a real loser ...

We are still borrowing stuff from the library on a regular basis. Two things I have really enjoyed of the last few offerings were the anime Black Cat and the manga series Tsubasa. I have plowed through 12 volumes of Tsubasa now. I really like the characters, the mix of story telling and humor and the refreshing twist on the classic hunt for the ( Read more... )

Well, CONGRATS! You are the first person I've known who's not entranced by the frog. I personally can not see what's so wonderful that they had to make an anime of it!! :-P------I<--vomit

The frog was pure drivel. Can't believe how many volumes the library has of it.

Ooops, and in ranting about THE FROG I forgot to comment further...

I never got into Tsubasa. I think it's because I dearly love Card Captor Sakura and look on Tsubasa as a sneaky way to get more mileage out of the characters. Don't get me wrong either...I love nearly anything CLAMP does but for this I just....cant...

Black cat sounds interesting. I usually see SHONEN JUMP and...jump to the next title. Once again, preconcieved notions I guess...

NEW STUFF:

I went to the half-price bookstore and besides a copy of Dragon Ball, bought the first two eps of Tokyo Mew Mew Ala Mode. I've only read the first volume so I can just say if you liked Tokyo Mew Mew, you'd probably like the sequel, for that's what it seems to be... more of the same.

I never read CCS so the characters are all new to me.

I did not like Tsubasa. Could barely get through it. I didn't like Sakura's character in it at all. Terribly wimpy compared to her in CCS.

However, I really enjoyed xxxHolic, which came out at the same time. I need to find more of them!

I should check the local library here and see if they have manga available to borrow...

Meant to say I could barely get through the first book of Tsubasa...

I never read CCS or xxxHolic so the characters are all new to me. I am going to check the library for them though.
