junjou romantica

In one of my fits of boredom yesterday I downloaded the Junjou Terrorist episode from the second season. Saw the beginning and saw the end...And was very confused. I didn't remember the scene! I later reread the manga (minus the Egoist parts. I'd forgotten just how much of the manga is Egoist! I need to get over my dislike of the uke--Hiroki, was it?--since it means skipping A LOT of the manga ;_;) and realized just how much they've censored in the anime. I'd heard complaints about it, but oh my! No sex at all? That's just not Junjou Romantica!!
I don't remember if I'd written about the manga volume 11 and don't want to bother going back to check, so I'll just blather a bit (again?). Oh man, the Terrorist bit in this volume was adorable! I love Shinobu smacking the pumpkin against the counter in a futile attempt to "cook," him getting jealous over his sister's homemaking abilities, how he asks for sex (so cute!), and the very end. They are a fun couple. As for Romantica, I love the panel where Usagi tells Misaki to monopolize him after Misaki's fit of jealousy and possessiveness. (Wish I had a working scanner to scan that page...Oh well.) I love how Usami is so straightforward with his feelings...I hope Misaki can grow up just a bit more to be able to reciprocate fully and openly. I wonder how Takahiro will react to the inevitable revelation of Usagi and Misaki's relationship?

Yes, they cut out the sex scenes in Terrorist. They were like cramping 2 or 3 chapters in one episode too. I think the anime has it's good points. Some of the crack scenes I always like being animated makes me laugh some more. Like Usagi hitting the wall and act all high and mighty: Why? Because I like it!
And actually I didn't like Terrorist that much when I read the manga last time, just think it's ok. Maybe because the seme's attitude bugs me. But I came to like them more when I watch the anime. Shinobu's sniffle cry is win!

I don't care much about Miyagi, actually I came to like him more with the story going on, but Shinobu is absolutly adorable! chop chop chop hehe ^___^
I need to catch up on the anime!! I have only seen 2 episodes so far T_T
