My collection is growing quickly! My recent buys are Inuyasha volume 5, Ranma 1/2 volumes 1 and 2, Maison Ikkoku volume 2, and Saikano volume 1. Ranma 1/2 is a great series, it's very funny! I haven't gotten to read Saikano yet, but the story sounds intriguing...

I recently began adamantly collecting volumes of Inuyasha (the manga i mean....), and it has really turned into an obsession! I was on the fence when it came to manga for a long time, but I finally took the plunge, and im glad that I did! I knew I would like Inuyasha because ive been watching the anime adamantly for a year now. Its cool to see the story in its original context, and I love the artwork. At the end of each volume there is an editors recommendation page, and as I was reading that I discovered an interesting looking series from the creator of Inuyasha (Rumiko Takahashi), called Maison Ikkoku. It seemed there was a consensus that this was her best work, so I wanted to check it out. I bought volume one the other day, and im glad that I did! Maison Ikkoku is about the residents of an apartment house in modern day Japan. Its not action oriented like Inuyasha, but its hilarious and sweet, and its just a great story in general. It was a reminder that this art form is about more then intense fight sequences, and I cant wait to read more! I highly recommend this series to all you manga fans out there Im still new to manga, but I think this will surely become one of my favorites!

Me and my sister got our dad a keychain with our pictures etched into the metal. I think he liked it. Ive been doing pretty well in my classes; I got A's on my last paper and my last test. Ill be done after this week, and then ill have more me time. Vagrant Story is going well so far, I think I finally have the right idea as far as the weapon systems concerned...meanwhile Final Fantasy two is starting to drive me a little crazy, so I might take a break from that for awhile...I borrowed Megaman Zero 2 from my cousin, but I know that this is a hard series so im not sure how ill do...im glad he lets me borrow his stuff sometimes since I don't have much cash at the moment and when I do buy stuff I prefer to add to my growing Manga collection. Im planning to get my blog going again, and when I do ill post the link, so feel free to check it out when I do. See ya...
