What do you mean I am the one who would dance on the floor in the round?

Perhaps unadvisedly, I downloaded the first episode of Ouran High Host Club. It is ridiculous love, such a fluffy keeper. It will be filled, I'm sure, with far-fetched scenarios and teasing hints of BL and it will make me smile whenever an episode drops and I won't think about it much in between. I need a few series like that in my life.

I finished up Garo last night. It ended very strongly and even made me cry at one point. And the fight scenes were superb. This show has always had great effects and well-choreographed fights. In the beginning, I wasn't that engaged, because good fighting is not enough to attach me to a show. I was bascially just watching for Kaoru, whom I love with the burning power of a thousand million suns. Kouga, I thought, was just a boring asshole in leather pants and eyeliner. But then Zero appeared on the scene and the episodes got stronger, creepy even, and Kouga started to actually change, little by little. By the end, I liked him a lot. (He's played by Hiroki Konishi, who was Ibu Shinji in Tenimyu.) There was only one flaw in the ending. NO SUGAR! I was waiting and waiting and waiting for Kouga and Kaoru to have a big kiss scene and it just didn't happen. At one point, I almost hit my laptop screen with a pillow.

And why isn't S2 of Honey and Clover here yet? I need more now! And has anyone seen the second special subbed yet? I just have the first one. (Romaiya-senpai!)

ah! i'm glad to hear you mention Ouran High, cause the synopsis looked good, but i wanted somebody else to see how it was before i got invested.

In return, I will pimp you Off*Beat, which i bought the first volume of today, and i was completely in love by page three when Tori said "It's Friday, there's a 76% chance mom will be home late."

Also, marks and I will be watching the first Whistle! shortly. Yay shounen!

furthermore, while I was reading the megatokyo volume i bought today (both manga i bought today were by american artists, how weird) i discovered KOBAGIN UNDERCOVER.

hahaha, and then, he gets eaten by a vending machine (http://pics.livejournal.com/mousapelli/pic/000szz9k) (don't miss the logo on the machine) but even after that, he's still working hard (http://pics.livejournal.com/mousapelli/pic/000t0f16).

Marks was like "I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS. It IS him! the only thing holding me back before was the fact that no random second years had glasses on!"

he and kazuhiro can go on spy missions to the other schools to see what kind of drills they run at practices and such. They will be totally incognito! Just like Inui.

--------

"You want us to what?" Kobayashi made a face and looked back down at the crisp pages of 1001 Shougi Roads to Victory, whose black and white diagrams made a hell of a lot more sense than these freaks. "Absolutely not."

"Come on," Sato begged, failing utterly to imitate Asakawa's winning pout. "Tsukada wants me to come up with drills, and I'm terrible at it, and you'd only have to go long enough to figure out what Kakinoki does! And besides, I've already asked Kazuhiro to go along with you."

"You WHA--"

"Kobagin!" Kazuhiro slammed open the classroom door and bounced in, carrying an armload of black clothing and, ancestors be praised, actually wearing a pair of black pants himself. "The girls in the Drama club said we could borrow this spy stuff!"

"Who do you know in the drama club?" Sato asked, looking like he really didn't want to know.

"I did a whole 6 weeks of drama club!" Kazuhiro grinned. "But those stretchy pants they practice in were itchy and stifled my dramatiku."

"All settled then!" Sato said cheerfully, making his exit as Kazuhiro plucked a squawking Kobayashi's glasses off and dropped a pair of oversized shades in their place.

you realize of course that his father 'catching' them will actually mean "finding them doing something completely nonsexual but Kazuhiro has no pants."


"You delinquent! you seduced my son! put some clothes on!"

Kobagin: "God, THANK YOU FINALLY."

Kazuhiro: "oh you love it." *smooches cheek*

Downloaded Ouran and already like it better than the manga (which just didn't click for me even though it is the same story *shrug*)

I was curous about that Honey & Clover extra ep as well...and now there is a second season???!!! I can barely get through the first (the last 12 episodes have been sitting on the hard-drive for DECADES)...H&C and Nana (the manga) make me want to chuck myself out a window, they feel so sad to me. I'm such a sap!

Going to be watching Ouran soon - though I'm trying to figure out if its shoujo masquerading as BL or the other way round...

Have you checked out the first episodes of Gakuen Heaven or Princess Princess? Those two are the only new ones that seems to have BL...and on the shounen end there is KIBA which seems like the typical Bleach/Naruto stream of anime...*hearts*

Ouran High Host Club! Joshie and I are really into that. I don't know if you read the series, but we're picking up the trash English verions and it's getting a little deeper and more interesting as you get through three, four and five. We're waiting for six to come out. BUT....


WHERE DO YOU GET THE EPISODE?!?!? I really want to get it!

I'm replying without reading the spoiler bit, because i haven't watched the end yet.

But omg Zero. *__________*

I love Kaoru, I really do, but everytime Zero and Kouga argue, up close and personal, the yaoi fangirl inside of me wibbles and melts. *_____*

Zero/Kouga, Hal/Kaoru. XDDDD Makes perfect sense to me!
