Ajin
Author: Miura Tsuina
Artist: Sakurai Gamon
Genre: Sienen, supernatural, adventure, horror
Ok I don’t get to fan girl very much on my review world as I try to keep my eye super critical…
But seriously!!! Ajin! Its soooooo freaking cool! >.> It’s got everything I love in my manga! It has been a really long time since I’ve been this excited for a series!
At least so far, only 3 chapters have been fan translated but last week I made a trip to the nearest Japanese book store (They get imports from Japan and have a HUGE selection of manga in both English and Japanese) and saw that the series is on the second book published, which means in the magazines its probably at least a book or two farther along. Also the fact that it has a separate author from artist implies it might be based off a light novel or at least is being made in a team. (rather like Defense Devil, Trinity Blood, CLAMP or Death Note to give some examples of series based off novels and manga writing teams)
Ok shut up reviewer voice! (Referring to that last paragraph) Let loose!
The artwork is really cool! And I love the premise~! Ajin is written 亜人 and translates as something like Sub Human.
And yeah that’s what this series is about. There’s this new being called an Ajin that can’t die, nobody quite knows what they are, and there don’t seem to be very many of them. Typically nobody even knows that the person they knew was an ajin until they don’t die when they should have.
And in the first chapter our protagonist meets with an accident…
Being immortal has never looked so very cool and so painful! That’s part of why I like it! The action so far has been great and the drama also awesome, and I really can’t wait to read more! This series has so much potential and I encourage scifi, supernatural and action fans to give it a go!!!
And I thought I’d share my excitement with you all!
Anyhoo that’s one of the series I'm currently reading.

Yuki Sohma is one of the protagonists in the anime/manga, "Fruits Basket". He and his family members are secretly cursed to turn into the twelve animals of the Chinese zodiac when touched/hugged by someone of the opposite gender. His animal? -- the rat.
Yuki is known as a kind "prince" at school, where the girls idolize and fawn over him, and even the guys respect him. But he's actually quite the opposite -- sharp-tongued and quick to kick his cousin, Kyo (the cat), through doors when angered. Even that is a front to hide his insecurities about being a Sohma. He wants to be accepted by normal people for who he is, but is afraid that people will shun him if they find out the truth.
So when Tohru Honda stumbles into his life, finds out his secret and still accepts him, he starts to open up to her and others.
That's about as much as I can say here without giving spoilers. Why do I like this guy? Yuki's a multi-faceted character, and the more you find out about him, the more you just wanna root for him as he tries his best to be strong.
Hi-hi~!! First off, thanks so much to Theifspawn for adding me in! Aawesome world idea.
Today I wanna talk about GOSICK. I'm SO into mystery and crime so GOSICK is just. Plain. Awesome. BUT not many people know about it TT^TT.
So I am gonna tell you ALL about it!
The anime takes place in a made up country during the end of World War I and revolves around Kazuya Kujo. This young gentleman right here:
A normal, plain, unlucky, Japanese transfer student. And I say unlucky for a reason. His already not-so-awesome life gets even worse as he gets swept into mysterious crimes with the cute, lolita and tsundere Victorique de Blois:
An action-packed, thrilling anime with just the right amount of laughs and romance. You will laugh one minute and cry the next. This anime would make every fan girl squeal with delight!
GOSICK is sweeter than honey, and touching to the heart. Bringing forth an adventure between two people destined to be together. Teaching that the the unbreakable bonds of friendship,
family,
and love
will always prevail.
GOSICK is my favorite anime of all and if you haven't watched it YOU ARE MISSING OUT. The drawings are great, sleek and simple. The songs give the right emotion and everything. Everything is perfect.
Hope you enjoyed reading my review and synopsis and all that (Yes, I wrote all that meself :3)
Have a chocolate covered day~!
Hey guys^^ today iDefyn Sakurasou no pet na Kanojo. Its an anime which finished recently and has 24 episodes. Its one of my favorite animes because it has many precious moments. Its an anime which defines true friendship and the unbreakable bonds strangers make when they become friends. It also defines the struggle of a high school student and his/her journey towards dicovering their talents and ambitions in life. It has two love stories as well.
Because I'm really bad at writing reviews you guys can check out its whole sypnosis from wikipedia
I'm defining this anime because it has some very memorable scenes for me. They are actually too many to actually mention here. But if I had to chose it would be when in the second last episode when the graduation ceremony takes place where Misaki gives her speech and Sorata pleads to everyone to not to demolish Sakurasou (their dormitory) and a big scene takes place the teachers try to pry them off the stage but the strudents cheer for them. Heres a screen shot from the episode :)
Tegami Bachi: Letter Bee takes place in Amberground, a land where the only light comes from the artificial sun that shines over the capital, Akatsuki. Only the elite live in the capital, while the common folk and the poor live in the areas that receive less light and where giant armored insects called Gaichuu roam. In this world, the couriers, called Letter Bees, keep the hearts of the people connected with the letters they carry.
Following his rolemodel, Gauche Suede, Lag Seeing becomes a Letter Bee -- and he's aiming for the top! But he soon finds that Gauche has gone missing, and that the capital isn't all it's cracked up to be...
I really love this story -- It's one of my favorites that I'd definitely recommend! The anime is finished, but the manga is still running, and building up to something amazing!!
Also gotta love that art!
