Belated review

Why doesn't everything around me work properly?! I couldn't download new chapters on one of Russian sites where I read manga again this week. T.T

Anyway, a short review on the series I managed to read in English.
Naruto: If Sasuke is killed the plot will get a chance to change finally. Bloodthirsty me... I don't really have anything against this character, sorry to all his fans in any case.
Bleach: Am I the only one to whom the two latest chapters seemed to be shounen-ai?.. Perveted me >.<
Bakuman: I'm looking forward to a great battle, ohoho! *.*
Ultimo: The begining looks like the end D:
CodeBreker: Good luck, my dear Toki-kun!~

I don't know when I'll continue making anything, I'm pretty busy this week and I have problems with computer. =_=

Ultimo, minitokyo & celebration

Today I read the 11th (the latest by now) chapter of the manga Karakuridouji Ultimo by LEE Stan (story) and TAKEI Hiroyuki (art). And this manga seemed to me... strange O.o I began reading it because I saw Takei-sensei (the creator of my most favourite ShamanKing) as one of the authors. And the art in Ultimo, as for me, is really great (Karakuri Douji are cuuuties *.*). And the story all in all looks not that bad. Once upon a time in Medieval Japan some stranger was caught by bandits who were going to take away all his savings. But the only things he had were 2 very beautiful dolls. Suddenly the dolls revived and began fighting each other... In modern world an ordinary high school student (suspiciously resembling the leader of the medieval bandits) comes across one of these dolls. The doll revives and begins actively expressing its love for the poor (or happy?..) student. And shortly after that they are attacked by the second mentioned doll... Sorry for my bad description T.T Besides I should mention that the dolls (Karakuri Douji) look like boys (and very pretty ones). So what we specifically have: one Naruto-type main hero (the student who found the doll), his not_so_ordinary_as_you_could_think friend (I'm going to make some avatars with him, hehe), 3 ordinary girls (one of them is the main character's love), several cute dolls, a bunch of other rather important but not really good-looking characters and only 1 guy who has a chance to be interesting for female audience. In addition there are more or less broad hints on shounen-ai (I guess "yaoi" is even more suitable) relationships of the main hero. On the other hand the amount of girls and the lack of guys seems to be the first sign of something harem-like. Maybe in the end the main hero will choose who he loves more - girls, guys or boy-looking dolls?.. But I'm afraid that's just my ill perception and the manga will be about something different. ^^'
And I go on with the celebration of my finishing reading Tsubasa ^_^ I even submitted two of my wallpapers on minitokyo.net to get more scans from T:RC. though it didn't seem to help... I want to make lots of cards and wallpapers with them!:D But I don't know when I'll do that... -.-
