Friday Ramble: Give me feedback!

Since April just won’t come fast enough, I’ve decided to start my own feature or two here so that I have something to blog until the new season rolls around. I also figured that I’d need something to fill the gaps in April while I wait for all the shows I’m interested in to come [...]

Manga Bites: Omamori Himari

This isn’t Shana. Notice she doesn’t have a melon-pan. Some mangas are missleading. For example, Elfen Lied manga looks dreadful at the first sight but his subpar artwork is offuscated by the storyline and appeal of the characters. Others, like 666 Satan, looks like a decent shounen but it reveals itself at a lame clone [...]

Manga Bites: Shinseiki Evangelion – Gakuen Datenroku

I wouldn’t be surprised if Shinji shoots his head and summons Eva-01… This was the year of ’96. I barely had entered my teen years and the only decent stuff on public TV was Samurai X (Rurouni Kenshin) and animes like Tenchi Muyo and Lost Galaxy. Then, without any kind of advertizing, a new anime [...]

Umi no Misaki: What would you do if you had Three Cape Maidens?

What awaits us on Okitsushima Island? The newest work from the creator of Ai Yori Aoshi, Kou Fumizuki, doesn’t fail to leave an impact if you’re looking for some darn good eyecandy. Clearly, from the start of the manga, Fumizuki has been ‘doing his homework’ as Extrange puts it, as the character designs are drawn [...]

Vampire Knight Chapter 35: Please, no more incest…

Forget about Chapter 34 and just a quick review on Chapter 34, Yuki behaves very weird and finally Rido came into Cross Academy (As Shiki) to kill Kaname (He would kill those who killed Shizuka, and Shizuka is Rido’s fiancee) with an addition of mysterious words that Yuki will be ‘awaken’ soon. Kaname then takes [...]

Manga Review: Dogs – Bullets & Carnage

Don’t mind the eyepatch guy trying to seduce you. Mihai, the retired hitman looking for peace; Badou, the freelancer and nicotin addict coward; Naoto, the blade maiden looking for revenge; Haine, the immortal and albino guy tormented his past. In a world haunted by the mistakes inherited from “the golden age of technology”, these four [...]

Vampire Knight Chapter 33, not as disappoining as before.

Okay, before I start anything for today’s review of Vampire Knight chapter 33, I would like to say a few words. Sorry I haven’t been updating for some time now as I’m busy with things that are personal/private to me. Lately I’ve been meeting some Kaname-hater fans, so maybe someone would like to start a [...]

All Heil Pain!

Naruto is one of the most frustrating and at the same time enjoyable Mangas I’ve ever read; frustrating because of its weak lead character, Naruto, and enjoyable because of its amazing storyline, character development and battles. I didn’t know where to start on this one. As you all know Pein-sama is fighting Jiraya so naturally [...]

Mangaka Spotlight: Suzuki Nakaba (鈴木央)

It’s impossible to find any high quality pics of Suzuki’s manga online… I don’t like sports manga in general. The reasons are hard to explain, but it’s largely because I’m not a big fan of spectator sports. So when it comes to manga that spends a lot of time describing the games, I can’t really [...]

Hello, my name is Extrange and I'm addicted to manga…

Girls will notice she’s reading; boys will notice you can’t see her panties. I seem to suffer from a serious case of Manga fanatism: this week only, I’ve read 80-90 volumes of assorted mangas. And I still want to read more…
