Shojo Beat July 2006 [06 Oct 2006|01:49pm]
Hello i was wondering if anyone knew a place where i could purchase The July Issues of SHojo Beat. I started my subscription again in August and didn't look for the July one at the time because last year when i subscribed, even though i already had bought the 1st 2 mangas they sent me those ones in the mail starting my subscription at the 1st manga. I assumed they were going to do it like that again. They didn't though. I just got the November issue so far.Anyway, I've looked everwhere and the only place i can find it is on ebay for 20.00 and 22.00 for shipping. 42.00 is a little too much for a single shojobeat...its more than the year subscription. I am missing a chapter from all the other mangas so i haven't read them since JUne cause ineed the missing link.Thanks in advance for any help.

Input [09 Jun 2006|10:24am]
So i'm working on writing a shojo manga. Who knows if i'll ever finish it or do anything with it, i hope i do though! I have several ideas for the ending but i don't want it to suck and be disappointing to the readers.The main character in this story is a tomboy like character who has never dated. In the story she is sort of pressured by her only femae friends to get a boyfriend. The story takes a place over a span of her junior year in high school ending at her prom. Over the course of the story she is dates 2-3 guys and there is 1 that she is always after until the end when she realizes she was never really in love with him. I don't wanna give away the plot of the story but just in general which ending do you think people would love or hate, or do you think any would do be fine.Here are the three ending i am debating over:1. The main character does not end up in a realationship, but she has matured and feels more confident with herself. And has become closer to her friends. (she would still have a date to the prom, just not a boyfriend)2. This is my favorite ending. This one is not going to go right out and say she has a boyfiend but its completely hinted at that she is with her prom date.3. The third ending clearly states who she is with and that they will live happily ever after.I hope this makes sense..sometimes i don't write things write...Onmce i finish writing it all out then i need to ork on my drawing...taht's gonna take awhile. Once i draw pleasing pictures of the characters i'll share them w/ this community. I think i'm going to take an art class or something.THank you for your time!

Shojo/manga Goodness [27 Jan 2006|03:14pm]
Are any of you in the free_manga community? Cause if you aren't you should... Its an awesome community where you can share/request manga you're interested in. I've gotten into SO many new shojo titles that aren't available in the US and some that are.Here's a list of some this community got me hooked too:1. Kagen No Tsuki by Ai Yazawa (Nana, ParaKiss Mangaka)2. Binetsu Shjo By Miyasaka Kaho (Kare 1st Love Mnagaka)3. Kimi Wa Pet (which i believe is Tramps like us.) by Yayoi Ogawa4. Cat Street by Yoko Kamio (hana Yori Dango Mangaka)5. Tenshi Nanka Ja Nai by Ai Yazawa 6. Never Ending Heart a short by Fuyuma Soryo (Mars Mangaka)And many more!! Wanted to share the goodness with other shojo/manga lovers.THis should be a link to the community: http://community.livejournal.com/free_manga/

this week's shoujo and Onna! shout-out [02 Oct 2005|01:05am]
New shoujo in bookstores this week:Angel Sanctuary 10Basara 14Boys Over Flowers 14Doubt!! 4Fushigi Yugi 16MeruPuri 2Tokyo Boys & Girls 2Viz has Sensual Phrase 10, Hana Kimi 8, and Full Moon 3 listed as in-stock, so hopefully those will arrive next week. :) With the second volume out of Tokyo Boys & Girls, I finally gave it a try. I like Hot Gimmick -- it's the same mangaka -- but I was worried that the stories might be too similar. The back blurb for TB&G volume 1 sort of indicated a reverse situation. I'm happy to discover that's not the case, and it's now occupying my shelf as the first "T" book in my collection. Heh. Putting it there made me notice, and means I am only missing English-translated manga starting with the letters E and Z. I feel a silly urge to go buy Eerie Queerie and Zodiac P.I. just to fill the gaps.Aside from that random note, I totally should have said something about this before but didn't think to... this coming weekend, October 8-10, there's going to be a shoujo anime convention in New Jersey. It's called Onna!, and is a celebration of women in anime and manga. If anyone's in the vicinity, it should be really neat. I'll be staffing registration and wherever else they put me after that closes. :>

manhwa: Neck and Neck? [19 Sep 2005|04:23am]
[ **mood** | the cat mood icon is retarted ] Does anyone else read this series? I got bored tonight and reread the first 3 volumes I have of it, and got to 3 and noticed how it said that volume 4 would be released in September but on the Tokyopop site it's been pushed back to December? I can't find out much info about this series but I was wondering if anyone else new anything? Like is it only 6 volumes long (since that's what it is listed up to on Tokyopop) or why the the date was pushed back?Thanks in advance ^_^::goes off to reread another series until I doze off:: Perhaps Immortal Rain XD(x-posted)

Another Random Entry about X-Day [09 Sep 2005|05:20pm]
[ **mood** | swift mo et ] So did they not blow up the school? It seems as though they didn't but that news report at the end kinda hints that maybe they did. I'm pretty sure it's purposely there to provide the reader with whichever they may think. Like if you were reading thinking they'd probably go through with the plan then that ending maybe felt as though they did, but then again... ::sigh:: But anyways, WHAT IS UP WITH THE SHORT STORY AT THE END!? Is it just me or did anyone else feel like becoming a vegetarian after reading. I think I'm highly too sensitive since I felt myself going 'awwwwww'. I mean I was reading the story and was confused in the beginning because (oh wait, possible spoiler alert) here's this small/young boy getting upset that his father is about to be eaten, now here's the punch, they were HUMAN or at least they looked close to being human minus the huge bell around their neck and their ears which kinda curved out like an elvish ear but rotated. So apparently you learn that these are cows which have had their genes spliced w/ human dna since cows were all killed during this black plague (I think, I forget how they explained what happened to them)... And of all things, the title of the story is called "The LAST Supper" ::shakes head::Has anyone else read X-Day and that particular story as well?

Anti Side Stories X_x [01 Sep 2005|12:43am]
[ **mood** | pissed off ] I'm one of the people who simply HATE side stories in the original manga. I'm talk'n about when you were in a middle of a huge event and you just bought this new manga then out of no where in the middle of the book at the end of the page they write "Continue in the Xvolume !" WHAT THE HECK !!! I'm still in the middle of the book !! then they turn out that the rest of pages are simply side stories from totally different Manga O__o I JUST HATE IT !!!Reason for being Anti-Side stories ?1. I'm a kind of person who adore reading long volumes, I prefer 10 volumes and above. so when I read a side story that going to end in one chapter I usually dont get excited at all !! and since I'm reading Shoujo Manga then I know what going to happen in the end >_<;; I wonder if shounen manga also has side stories ~?2. sometimes you wait despretly for the volume to get releasedm and your totally hyper and excited that you finally have it and then you realize that its also include a side story !! like a normal manga pages would make me satisfied T__T3. I dont mind side stories but about the same manga, like flash back like what happened in Hot Gimmick Vol8 when we read about their childhood history, even though I prefer no side stories at all, but atleast this case is much better than reading totally new story for just one chapter O_o;;Okay sorry I've talked too much, but I just read Kare Kano Vol 8 and their was this side story so it kinda pisses me off xD

introduction [23 Aug 2005|10:45am]
[ mood** | chipper ] I randomly decided to prowl through links from my interests today... and I found this community. Yay! In any case, I'm a shoujo fan. I read a lot more manga than I watch anime. Probably because it's harder to watch anime in the bathtub, whereas I can take a stack of manga in there while I soak. I'm currently rereading Mars, which I first got hooked on when it was being published in Smile. I work part-time as the shipment receiver at a Waldenbooks, so I see the manga as it comes out of the boxes. Not good for the wallet, but it means I'm on top of new releases and am the "anime queen" of the store. A discount is a lovely thing.Current series being released that I grab as soon as I see them: Hana-Kimi, Fruits Basket, Hana Yori Dango, Hot Gimmick, Kare First Love, W Juliet, Prince of Tennis, One Piece, Ouran Host Club, Sensual Phrase, Full Moon, Meru Puri, Queen's Knight, GALS!, Tramps Like Us... and probably more but I'm running out steam on that. =) One of the other nice things about working in a bookstore is that I get the chance to check out some series I might not have bought right away, or I can hold off buying them but not lose track of the story. I do plan to get Basara at some point, because I love it, but I have the entire story in Japanese so have been waiting.I saw that some people posted pictures of their manga collections in earlier posts, so I have those to share, too. They're current as of a few weeks ago. I've added Shoujoai ni Bokuen (a serialized story that's only not-manga because the author can't draw a straight line with a ruler even though she tells an awesome story) and some backlog of Ranma 1/2 and Inuyasha (the old pretty versions).( Manga collection!Collapse )**
