Looks like I spoke too soon about not having the time to pick up my Kinokuniya order.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Yet another<\/em> new girl in the latest volume of Rosario + Vampire<\/strong>. Damn, is the mangaka going to do this for every book or something? D:<\/p>\n The cliffhanger from last volume ends so fast that it barely hits one quarter of the book. Rubi doesn’t die! Wo0t! I guess that’s kind of expected… but you never know when a mangaka feels a streak of sadism and kills off a perfectly good character *cough* Black Cat *cough*<\/p>\n And in case the GIGANTIC boldface<\/strong> words on the cover don’t clue you in (or you don’t read Japanese), the new girl is an ice demon… thing. Well more accurately she’s a \u00e9\u203a\u00aa\u00e5\u00a5\u00b3 yuki onna<\/em> from traditional Japanese mythology (well, more like fariy tales I guess). And you know how it always goes it those stories…<\/p>\n Frankly I wish the mangaka just stops introducing new characters and start an actual storyline that doesn’t end within one and a half volumes. Preferably something about Moka. <3<\/p>\n As usual with each volume of Vampire, I now have to wait another four months for the next volume. Draw faster you lazy artists! It’s just a few hundred frames!<\/p>\n P.S. Mai-Otome<\/strong> episode 20 has finally crossed the line of no return. I’m also continuing to keep up with REC<\/strong>, Fate\/stay night<\/strong> and the occasional Zipang<\/strong>. Dropped Kashimashi<\/strong> just in time to save myself from a boredom-induced death.<\/p>\n P.S.S. Death Note<\/strong> Vol.10 is good too. Needs more Misa though.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Looks like I spoke too soon about not having the time to pick up my Kinokuniya order.
