I really should know better....

*Sigh*
Well, got addicted to another manga......what else is new you ask? (what, do I detect sarcasm?!)  This time I swear it's not my fault.  I blame it entirely on my 18 year old cousin.  Her dad is my uncle, her mom is Japanese and an anime junkie and I blame her for my decent into this madness.  Anyway,  she just started college, AND just got hooked on Death Note.....she emailed " But Manda-chan, you have to try it, its great!!  I love it!!  Light is so WICKED!!"  Just to humor her (she can be so cute but so annoying when she spams my inbox),  I went out and picked it up.....*Sigh*  I'm now on Volume 3.

In defense of myself it really is a good read and beautifully drawn.  Plot is well thought out and not predictable.  I am actually surprised she liked it.  I feel major fan issues coming up.  I really don't know where I will fit in the room for Light and L in between, say Jin and Mugen or Renji and Grimmy, or even my twins Hikaru and Kaoru, gah!!  Too many fandoms!!  Oh well, I give up, I will happily sink into this oblivion and wallow in Otaku.

Side note:  Bleach 232, color pages.......GAH!!  Renji in classes and Grimmy's pecs *melts into puddle of goo*

Enjoy Death Note. They're making a live-action movie of it, don'cha know, and it doesn't look too bad either.

I got bogged down in DN at around volume 7 or 8 and never went back...the plot just seemed to stop going anywhere. But L and Light are total numminess. Your cousin has good taste!

Hee hee! The idea of fitting between Obvious/More Obvious and the twins made my brain all sparkly for a moment there. XD

Wait, still sparkly. Mm!

Oh! Oooh, those glasses on Renji's nose left me dead. And Ichigo's look is all: "Go on. Mock my pink glasses. I dare you." Grimmjaw strikes me as older!Hitsugaya too much. And if Older!Hitsugaya has those pecs...I wanna be a shinigamiiii!!!

That EVIL look in 232 Grimmy gave Ichigo though when the mask broke *shudder, goes to take cold shower*. Don't know why that Grimmy's evil smirk just looks like teh smex to me. *shrugs*
