*comiket intensifies*

[wednesday_10_00]

I am obsessed with planning for Comiket. For the first time in several Comikets, I am super interested in fandom doujinshi, so of course the Comiket gods decided to smite me by putting everything I care about on the same day. This Comiket is going to require military precision planning. Thank goodness I have awesome friends and we're going together

Oh, thank you for going catalog-diving to find these. Definitely adding the Panco and Yoshio Akira books to my to-buy list (and Sara and I can figure out who gets to go to which at Comiket...yay, shopping!). Coincidentally, I just read Panco's Body Talk Paradox two days ago. (I am reading so much manga so quickly that time is warping.)

The "let's fall in love with a guy holding a kitten" picture came from the Kanai Kei book?

(By the way, this was the picture I saw and knew I needed. Sometimes I have really good instincts.)

And lastly, did you forget to link an image here? 'cause I assume you're referring to the circle cut?

Yes.

I didn't mean to link the image, but I guess I could. I was referring to the circle cut, but I just meant to explain that the original picture that made me stop and think I needed to check some new mangaka out was the one that turned out to be the best.

Ahhhh! Just read the scanlation for the first volume of Kyouju to Shitsuji. Awesome! (No scanlation for vol. 2. So sad. Must cry myself to sleep now.) The roommates! The extras! The anniversary! The cosplay!

[wednesday_10_00]

The cosplay is so great! I'm sorry the roommates don't show up in volume 2...but then, most of it takes place in one day, so maybe it wouldn't have fit. I still kinda hope she continues it (and the roommates). Why isn't the doujinshi for this?? Gah.

I might need to look at some of her other titles and see if there's anything I might care about.

If it helps, I own その時はただ心に触れて and have 純情書店 on my list as an Amazon rec.

[wednesday_10_00]

純情書店 looks super cute, but it's not available as an e-book, so I have to wait to get a paper copy if I want to read it.

Have you reviewed その時はただ心に触れて somewhere, or are you planning to?

It seems I wasn't very impressed with it, so it may end up on the cull pile.

Hmm, thanks for the link. It's so disappointing when you only like one story in a collection of shorts.

That Ijiwaru Shinaide page is super cute!! Thanks for showing it to me!

[wednesday_10_00]

It is super cute! The whole thing is super cute!

Hinekure Chaser | Motto Hinekure Chaser - Panko.

No get. :-( Sadface forever until August. They actually had another Panco (vols 1-2 of this), but I didn't get it because I am so obsessed with seeing more Hinekure. ONLY HINEKURE CAN MAKE ME HAPPY.

Edit: Also, they didn't have wolfie. But I'm 92% okay with that.

[wednesday_10_00]

Aww. Did you find anything good to get?

I'm probably going to end up getting that other series (because I can't resist a continuing story), so I'll let you know if it's any good.

Did you find anything good to get?Ijiwaru Shinaide

[sara_tanaquil]

...ummm, you did say "list everything in excruciating detail," right?

That always goes without saying!

Why am I too stupid to learn to read Japanese?

You already know how to read Japanese. Sort of. Sort of is all we mortals get, because Japanese is hard. (And you are not too stupid to learn just a little more! Because that is also all we mortals can hope to do.)

[mangaroo]

And the second chapter of Hinekure is scanlated. Oh, the feels! This is a terrible place to leave off. I think this may be the first book I buy. Also, I will need story time. (Part of me wishes I were going to be there earlier with you and Sara so I don't miss an story times, but I also hope you'll burn off some of your shopping before I get there so there's more time for story times!)

[wednesday_10_00]

That is indeed a cruel cliffhanger. But isn't the umbrella "bullying" the cutest? I love that part. (Misaki is so nice. I want there to be a spinoff so he can get a boyfriend, too.)

We will definitely have storytime! All the storytimes!!

[mangaroo]

Misaki is so nice and definitely deserves his own awesome boyfriend! I love how sweet he is to transparent Hirokawa. [do I need to spoiler-protect a comment in an older thread?]But I was hiding under my covers when Hirokawa confessed his bullying to Yamato, clearly hoping for another kiss, and Yamato was so condescending and mean. (I thought he was an evil twin for a second, but he knew about Misaki and and the bullying, so no joy.) Just love Hirokawa already!

[wednesday_10_00]

Just love Hirokawa already!

Oh, I think he does. He just doesn't know it yet.
