Ouran 79

Yes, I'm still following what is happening with this manga. Chances are it'll probably end soon anyways, so WTH.

I suppose my greatest motivator for still caring is Hikaru, though after everything that has happened that can get very difficult.

I'd have a better and more in-depth response but lol, I have actually succeeded not reading Ouran! Banzai. At first it was hard because some were tempting (like the flashback on Ranka's past) but now it's just okay.

But I'm still waiting, actually, for your review for the last chapter. If the ending is worth going through the rest of the chapters before it, then I'll give it a go. (Or... I dunno. Maybe sometime in the future, I'll read Ouran for the sake of finishing it, like what I did when I rewatched Trigun, and loved it. Then again, I've always loved Vash as a kid...)

Yeah, For me it's the fact that I've become so detached from most of the characters that it gets alot easier.

So keep it up, At this stage I don't see anything that would really be of interest or worth looking at. Most of the chapter is essentially dedicated to dealing with Tamaki family issues with his dad and granny.

I actually love the Hikaru moment at the beginning of it. But in case you're curious, it's also a very, very painful moment for him too, so yeah, discretion is advised.

But yes, if there is anything salvageable for Hikaru and HikarHaru fans alike by the time Ouran ends, I'll be sure to let you guys know

i ended up reading some reviews in Amazon!japan. lol the review ratings dropped in the latest tankouban (16 and 14). haha. i dunno why i find that awesome. *cancel the damn series!!*

a couple of people mentioned how its no longer that series they started. it became a typical shoujo manga. many didn't like the serious mode the story taken. haruhi became a typical otome. also there were plenty of twins supporter that decided to drop the series because the focus shifted to tamaki. one mentioned they used to love tamaki in the beginning and now hate him haha. omg why does this make me happy XD

tho i'm still not touching the series hahaa. just wanna share my delightful hate for the series it became.

man, series had so much potential...but took it the wrong way. *sigh*

I think it's pretty obvious why it would make you happy =D

Though I find it interesting that rating reviews dropped in Japan..maybe they don't like the direction the story has taken either?

Is that where you're hearing people not liking it anymore? I have to wonder how the conversation comes up since you try your best to avoid the series now XD

But yes.. so much potential *sighs*

amazon!japan sent me an e-mail recommending me the manga since i've shown interest in shoujo manga i think haha. so i was curious how it was doing and clicked to see the reviews haha.

I'm just wondering, are the reviews in English? If so, could you provide a link? Since I'm curious about what other people have said myself now XD
