beautiful moozak and MANGA!
Because I am in such a wonderful mood (for once) I decided I needed to share music. And of course, wanting to share most excellent music, I decided on the Arslan Senki OST 1. Damn, I love this soundtrack.
And since I finally watched anime and read manga I will babble about them as well. (I can't believe how great I feel right now! I hope this feeling lasts till tomorrow...) I saw the first 7 episodes of Ayatsuri Sakon (why 7? Because the first two story arcs were 3 and 4 episode long, respectively...). First thing that I thought when Sakon opened his mouth was SHINJI!! And naturally I immediately thought "Nigecha dame da! Nigecha dame da!" ^__^
The stories were a bit simplistic, but fun to watch. The first arc I didn't care for, the second I enjoyed a lot more. I was looking forward to who'd be dying, and who'd end up the culprit. And of course the music is just so lovely. I will have to watch the four more episodes I do have soon.
I also read the first volume of the Jump manga D Grayman (or whatever it's called) which my friend lent me. Not sure what to make of it yet. The art's pretty good, there are some wacky characters (always a plus), but it's just so...JUMP. I will be borrowing the next two volumes to see if I'll actually like it.
Read a disturbing manga by Shimizu Yuki (of Love Mode fame) called Ze. It's about a household of "kamisama" (紙様), beings made of paper that take on the wounds of their masters. WEIRD. Very very weird.
Finally, got to read Sex Pistols 4. I was disappointed in the story about Yonekuni's dad and Kunimasa's dad. It didn't do anything for me, and there wasn't even sex to make it somewhat interesting. BUT BUT BUT it was made up for by the first three chapters, where we learn that Yonekuni and Kunimasa's mom (and Shinobu and Manami's dad) is a total and utter bitch. O_o She gets what she deserves, tho! Yes! Get bitch slapped by your wife! I was very happy at the Kunimasa/Norio moment. It was sweet. ^___^
I'm thankful for the family tree. Otherwise I'd have remained completely and utterly confused. (But I still don't get how two females make babies. Did I miss the explanation somewhere?)

Thank you so much for clearing this up for me! I knew I had heard that voice before but couldn't place it.

Hm, no idea how two women have babies. Though if two men can have babies I'm sure it's about the same general idea. I mean...right? I'm confused.
I didn't think much of the dad's story either (even though I can't read it XD). Seems like a waste of space to me. Go back to the main couples. o_o;;

The greatest strength of Ayatsuri Sakon is the characters rather than the murder mysteries (which are pretty straightforward). It doesn't start out very impressively but it soon draws you in, and the story about the girl and her mother really caught me up. I do love the Sakon/Ukon relationship, odd as it is, and who can resist the beautiful music? (note to self: get rec post done, dammit) Re: Sakon's seiyuu, it's been a while since we last heard Ogata Megumi voice a main character, huh. *grin*
but it's just so...JUMP
Says the TeniPuri fangirl. :P
After the first volume, the story finds its pace and it gets very good. Yes! Read this series with me!
...I find the very concept of that Shimizu Yuki manga disturbing.

I loved the second arc of Sakon. It's just so sad. I love the way the series draws strength from its character, however simplistic the plot might be. It's one of the reason why I adore this series. Megumi Ogata does a wonderfully in this series too.
I like D. Grayman for the fact that it is crack. <3 <3 <3
