I've been kind of meh about G-Defend lately while my friends continued to be enamoured of it, and I finally realized why. It just has waaay too many offshoot storylines about every (gay) couple in the series. I just can't handle such a fractured manga, and the fact that virtually everyone is gay does not help.

I was flipping through D-Grayman volume 8 the other day and realized why I haven't been following the manga as avidly as I had been...Allen's not around much! As much as I like the other characters, they aren't enough to keep my attention for many many chapters. I get very attached to my main characters in shonen manga, after all. And some of the character development, while...nice, bores me to tears when it goes on too long. I hope they focus on Allen again soon!

I hate it when people share manga "raws" and it turns out to be Chinese. I'm sorry, but "raws" of Japanese comics mean one thing to me--JAPANESE. ;_;

I can't believe how much I've slept today. I feel like I've wasted a day, but sometimes a person's gotta just veg. I'm so glad today was a moderate day so that I didn't end up drenched in sweat like I usually do in summer.

They probably don't know the difference between Japanese and Chinese. I've noticed that before. I've seen it in anime once or twice, when it said "raw" and it was actually Japanese with Chinese subtitles.

Ah, I didn't think of that. I suppose that makes sense. *sighs* It's really annoying for me, though.

I don't think it so much that they can't tell the difference, but that 'raw' to many people means 'sorry, you won't be able to read it'.

Happy to see that you like D.Grayman too... I can't wait to see the anime (even more than Death Note, I must confess)!

LOL, I like your explanation. Annoying, but amusing.

I forgot they were animating that series. I wonder who they will cast?
