Print making Manga

1 year 1 month ago

"I don't think etching and wood or linoleum printing is a good idea for a manga, except if you want to do something more experimental. But still, I think that you are going to have problems with the text.
I don't think traditional printing gives so much problems, you can manage it so it isn't reversed and is just printed as you wish it to be read."

How you feel after watching Code Geass ep 24&25?

"I was a bit dissapointed in how much a cliffhanger these two episode were; after so much time.
For this, they could have already end the series back in spring.

SPOILER (click to view)

It looked like Cornelia died; but I just hope she makes a comeback, because she is one of my favourite characters.
At last, Viletta recovers her memories, it was quite irritating to see her so much in a "wife" mode with the rebel boy, I like better her combative attitude.
And poor Orange kun, even now, he is a joke...

"Kuro may be an obstacle because he wasn't sent by FWR, but is a "pawn" of Yuuko, that can foil his plans.
He really knows more than it seems, about what is going on, and I think that depending on what is happening know, FWR plans may go awry. I thought that maybe Ashura was just a mirage made by Fei Wang, but Fye would have noticed if he wasn't his real king :/"

"I don't think Fye is responsable for Ashura's behaviour.
Ashura knows what he is doing and is after being killed by Fye, just Fye doesn't want to kill him, because probably thinks of Ashura as a father or a big brother.

"It's quite amusing. I was interested in the manga some time ago, but I didn't find translations online, so now having the anime fansubbed is a good thing.
The girls in the class get creepier and creepier with every new character that appears; I liked how they ended up making the hikkikomori girl running out of her room xD

And the ending song is wonderful, I'm waiting for it to be released."

"Well, in Japan, April 1st is quite important because is when the year starts there. Financial years for companies start on April the 1st and new years at school are also started in April 1st; so is quite a date for beginnings and starts.
I don't know if there is any other obscure reason for their liking to this date.

"Maybe he went crazy, as the king of Valeria and ended up like him, killing the people from his country.
Maybe this is a bit like in X with Seishiro and Subaru; Ashura's wish is to be killed by his loved one (Fye) and is moving according to a plan that will guarantee this outcome. Because under normal conditions, Fye wouldn't ever dream of killing his king."

"If what is being told about Xiao and Watanuki is true, then it seems they indeed died; but they would have die from an accident. At least they had some time together, enough to have Watanuki.
From the beginning of Holic, I always though that Watanuki would be the reincarnation of Clow Reed because he quite looks like a older version of CCS Eriol."

And I like Kanda too xD"

"I don't think Kurogane will do something so reckless as to kill (or try to) Fye because FWR plan.
I don't think Fye will hurt Kuro if he can avoid it (as long as he doesn't lose himself, as it happened when he hurt Sakura); because even if he was being reaaaally cold lately, it just was that he felt he was too close to Kurogane and was worried that this was going to hurt Kuro.

I doubt Kuro will try to kill himself either, because that goes against all we have seen of him in the manga.

CHAPTER 160 SPOILERS

SPOILER (click to view)

We see a bit of Fye (when I say Fye, I really mean Yuui, but I will keep calling him Fye because well... I'm already used to it) life in Celes. He seemed quite well liked by the people around him.
We also learn of Ashura's wish: That Fye kills whoever brings harm to Celes, regardless of who that person is.

Ahh, I can't wait for the chapter.

BTW, a set of new Tsubasa Ovas have already been announced. There will be three of them, set in the Tokyo arc.
Here is the official website for the Ovas: http://www.shonenmagazine.com/tsubasa_tokyo/"

"I exactly don't know what Kuro is going to do with his sword. I see three possibilities:
1. Kill the zombie
2. Kill Ashura
3. Kill Fye

I don't think he will try to kill Fye, it would be quite reckless and he really doesn't have such a big reason; if he didn't even tried to hurt Fye when he stabbed Sakura.
I think he will try to kill the zombie, to put a stop to the madness and show Fye how dead people can't come back (in Clampverse, people doesn't come back from dead).

I hope Fye will end up realizing that too, that people can't be brought back from dead, and won't betray further Kurogane and co..."

"I like Mika Nakashima's songs for Nana, but I'm not a fan of her usual work, too romantic for my tastes and usually her songs are slow ballads, a genre I don't like very much.
I have the same problem with Yuna Ito, her songs are too ballad-like for my tastes.

I prefer Olivia and Anna Tsuchiya. I liked Anna Tsuchiya before Nana, when I heard ., quite energetic and upbeat"

Manga suggestions?

1 year 1 month ago

"You may like Yami no Matsuei, with dark and fantasy themes, a bit in the style of Petshop of Horrors and Holic.
Loveless is interesting, the art is pretty, and the story is a bit BL-ish, so it could be to your liking too.
If you like the darker parts of Tsubasa and Holic, check X, from the same mangakas. Is darker and bloodier but a good reading.

Also, quite unrelated to what you said you read but both Nana and Paradise Kiss from Ai Yazawa are really good."

I actually don't get ch.156...what the hack happened? Why did the King go all the way to the valley just to kill himself in front of Yuui?

Well, the king pointed to the twins as the fault of everything that was going wrong at the kingdom and sent them to the valley and the stone prison; but still, things in the country didn't go better.
I think that after he sent everybody to die to the valley, when he was the last one left he went crazy (not that he wasn't, before that) and ended up killing himself; but telling Yuui that it was all their fault, as his last words."
