--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hey, it's not Japanese manga but Korean manga..and my first time to read a Korean manga. It's not so bad manga. I think it is almost equal to Japanese manga. Hmm,When I read this manga, I could know how to differentate which one is Japanese or Korean. Ah, just my instinct... XD And their omake is very hilarious until I can laugh out of my stomach. =.=

I thought Witch Hunters are comply to eliminate every and each witches. But not all. Witch Hunters are not that heartless and cruel. Just depends on how condition or situation from their encounter. As there are some good witches but they never side with evil Witches. So they can join Witch Hunters to aid Hunters.

Oh ya, I like Jack-O-Lantern. It's so cute... I thought it is like doll but it can walk, animate and fight. O.O It make the fight more interesting. Tasha and Jack-O-Lantern always make a smart tactic in fight that can surprise the enemry. Tasha always thought it is like his best friend. So they can believe in each one and even know what they would do in next.

Kyoukai no Rinne

You remembered about the popular manga, Inuyasha and Ranma which worked by Rumiko Takahashi? I love Inuyusha because this story is very amazing and make more challenges between Inuyusha's group and evil enemies- youkai, spirits, etc! It is very interesting story! I not yet finish read Ranma manga..Haha. Check out my review about Inuyasha and Ranma.

After Rumiko finished the long story of Inuyasha, Kyoukai no Rinne is new manga just released in last month. It called 'Rinne' - japanese manga series written and illustrated.. The story of new manga is about a girl who got lost in woods mysteriously then acquire ability to see ghosts and spirits. I not sure if this will be horror story like Inuyasha?

THE SUMMARY

Sakura Mamiya, a high school girl who became able to see ghosts after she was "spirited away" for a week when she was a child, though she does not remember the details of the experience. Once in high school, Sakura wishes to be done with her extrasensory perception which is an annoyance to her. She meets a shinigami of sorts named Rinne Rokudo, a classmate of hers who was absent for the first month or so of school. His job is to guide spirits, who are bound to the Earth due to regrets, to the wheel of reincarnation so that they may be reborn. The wheel appears as a large red, spoked wheel revolving in the sky...

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When I read this manga, I feel that this girl is really stupid, not like Kagome (Inuyasha) and Akane (Ranma).. Sometimes, she looks as cute, but she still confuse about what is different between human and spirits.. I am sure that she will make more trouble with Rinne when he has a mission about exorcises a spirit while he works as 'Shinigami'. Maybe she try to understand about 'another world'..

For me, she looks as Kagome? Because she can see the ghosts and spirits..What you think about it? :P



Rinne is Sakura's classmate and shinigami that sending the ghosts/spirits to another world through a large red, spoked wheel revolving in the sky..Why his hair is red?? He looks as Ranma character..I think that he is similar as 'Inuyasha' but, he also acted as 'cool' or sometimes show his pififul sin..He is funny when he still need coins and money to exorcise a spirit.. That is why he always borrow $$ from Sakura..He is really poor and don't have alot of clothes... Its surispre me about a shinigami need to pay $$ if he/she want to exorcise..? :P

So far, Kyoukai no Rinne has been kinda Bleach-ish, with Shinigami thing going on.. I like the beautiful red wheel used as the path to another world, mean if you die, you will send there.. Rinne's grandma knew something about Sakura? We will see what happen about this story! :)

Enjoy to read Rinne manga in MangaFox and Onemanga!

Hikaru no Go

THE SUMMARY

Hikaru Shindo is just a normal 12 year old boy, but one day he's rumaging through his Grandfather's things to see if he can find something to sell and pulls out an old Go board. A ghostly apparation appears out of the board and tells Hikaru his sad story. His name is Sai Fujiwara, a man who was a Go instructor to the emperor of Japan a thousand years ago.

However, because of bad sportsmanship of his opponent during a game, Sai was accused of cheating and banished from the city. With no livelihood or any other reason to live, Sai commited suicide by drowning himself. Now, he haunts a Go board, and wants to accomplish the perfect Go game, called the "Hand of God" which he hopes to do through Hikaru. If Hikaru will be able to do it or not (or even wants to) will have to be seen.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Just now, I have finished reading this manga in a couple of days. Haha, actually I don't know anything related to board game such like chess or Go. Even I also dunno the rule of those game. @.@ Back to time ago, I saw my colleague reading this manga, and I was wondering whether it's interesting story. So I gave myself a chance to read. To my surprise, it's definitely an interesting story until it can beat your adrenaline out or make your heart pounding too fast or causing you sweating a lot as if you are challenged by a Go player. o.O

Even though it is an interesting story, it is also sad story where a ghost and a child are too attached to each others but it ended up by a ghost disappearing someday and a child will lose his will to play Go. This reminds me of a friend warning me that don't too attach yourself to a friend, who will know your friend will dump or betray you one day. Hahaha, it's funny. XD I do agree but only 10%.. To me, it's common as there are always a meeting and a separation everywhere. Is important that we always have to remember them in mind. =D

The character in this story are pretty awesome. With different personality and skill, the challenge in Go game become more intense yet interesting. Hikaru can meet each person and learn from the tournament then improve, sharpen or restructure his playing skill. I think it's totally different from chess. Ah, sorry I don't really know that deep about Chess. It's just my opnion :) I never try or learn Go game before. It's a rare game and kinda an ancient traditional game. Hehehe. I think playing traditional game are encouraged. In Malaysia, there are some traditional game but nowadays I rarely see people playing those. =S

Ooops, I shouldn't get off from the branch line... Hehehe, I recommend you to read this manga in OneManga or MangaFox. Throw me your rating here after you read them. ;)

Skip Beat!

THE SUMMARY

Kyoko Mogami has devoted her life to Shotaro. When Shotaro came to Tokyo to debut as a singer, she followed him and worked to provide for him.

But one day, Kyoko overhears Shotaro telling his manager that Kyoko means nothing to him. She's just convenient, a housekeeper. This makes Kyoko furious, and she vows revenge on Shotaro. But Shotaro just laughs at her, saying she won't be able to touch him because he's now a popular singer and she's a nobody. So Kyoko decides to get into showbiz and become even more popular than Shotaro to humiliate him. Unfortunately, Shotaro has destroyed Kyoko's ability to love, and she discovers that it is a prerequisite for her to debut from her chosen company, LME. The president of LME puts her into a new section made for those who caught his eye but have something missing. It's name... Section Love Me.

Along the way, however, she will discover who she really is, make new friends, and find herself in interesting situations that will change her life forever.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well, at the first glance at this title, I was thinking it is only about a war in celebrity world. But it is not like what I thought. O.O It's totally different! It's about a girl who doesn't know anything about celebrity or acting skill. So basically she is lack of talent. Even though she is so, but she is able to be radiating actress with the help of her basic knowledge in her life. She is very good at channeling her sense through her experience life to acting skill. So the character she portrayed is coming to life like she is that character, made many people included me stunned!

Besides that, she is able to influence the people around her, causing the people completely changed their hatred one into friendly one. Because of her unique acting skill or silly personality, mostly actress hates her but ended up by changing their opinions about Kyoko! Wow, it's like a miracle. I sometimes wonder whether Kyoko was fairy in her previous reincarnation... XD

Haha, seems like Skip Beat! is mostly focused on Kyoko... While that, why not giving yourself a try to read? Here's Onemanga or MangaFox, you can read... The rest assured that you will like it!

Monster Soul

Dear Readers and Friends, Sorry for being inactive and not able to post any new entry this recent time due to stupid minor issue which I would not mention. Anyway, I am back with a new entry which you may wait for. XD

THE SUMMARY

The tale of Monster Soul takes place in the land of Elfenland where humans and monsters inhabit. The main characters are a group of monsters called the Black Airs. The Black Airs is recorded as the strongest group of the monster forces in the great war between the humans and monsters. They are Aki (Werewolf but the type is Dire Wolf, Touran (Golem and half human), James (Frankenstein) and Mamii (Mummy).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I bet you would guess who is its artwork.... Hell yeah, its Hiro Mashima who is involved in Groove Adventure Rave, Monster Hunter Orage and the on-going Fairy Tail! The art is not very much different from Fairy Tail. So it is very easy to identify or recognise whose style. XD Well, the characters are not that horrible monster. They still are the good guys, no matter how you see it. They are fighting to protect the goods from the evils. That's all only!

Ha, why Monster Soul only consisted of 2 book volumes with 7 chapters? ==" Nevermind, actually I like the characters so much. I am not sure I have mentioned about this before but anyway I have to say it once again. It reminded me of my Final Year Project which I have came up with different monster such as Mummy, Vampire, Zombie, Kuang Shi and others. It's really rare to see similiar concept in manga library. Now I found this Monster Soul and of course I really enjoyed it so much!

Monster Soul is a shounen, action adventure with a health does of silly comedy. At the certain point when they are fighting or not, they would drop a silly funny act. Like James accidently dropped his metal face off and often placed the metal face on wrong position. XD It's really causing boisterous merriment and crazy laughter among them. Not only them, I am also laughing. The most hilarious when they are fighting is that Aki - after transformation, Aki would be dozed off, too much for other friend have to carry him home.

Check it out in Onemanga : Monster Soul. Enjoy reading ya XP

For more information about Ranma 1/2

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wow, they always have martial arts competitions (whether martial tea-ceremony or martial cheer-leading) faded, in favor of more character-oriented action. It is really interesting, but it more silly! :P Sometimes the characters are stupid or clever when they joined in the martial arts competitions. Because the girls really angry and want to beat a strong girl, Ranma! Sometimes, Akane was jealous of Ranma? :P Maybe she loves him?

But, Ranma enjoyed to be girl when he wants to make the guys lose to him, especially Ryugo.. ^ ^lll This make me very laugh. Many different characters still come to find Ranma and Akane! Pity him because they have to fight with their enemies on every day! But, their dads' master is very pervert and always crazy about the beautiful girls! O_o Also get a strong girl want to take Ranma from Akane..Ryugo wants to confess his love to her! :D That is why they meet many enemies in their life! Finally, Ranma 1/2 and InuYasha already be completed in this year! :)

Saint Seiya : The Lost Canvas

THE SUMMARY

The Lost Canvas unfolds the story of the previous Holy War, taking place in the 18th century, 250 years before the original series, in the Saint Seiya universe.

During the Holy War, Athena's Saints fights against the Specters from Hades. One day, Gold Saint Libra Dohko is impressed by Tenma 's ability to use the cosmos when Dohko finds him, he asks Tenma to attend the Sanctuary in Greece to become Athena's Saint.

There, he finds Sasha who is revealed to be Athena's reincarnation. She is also Alone's sister and Tenma's childhood friend from an orphanage from Italy. By that time he meets her, he fails to protect Sasha from Worm Raimi and it causes him to become more determined. As promised, he become Pegasus Bronze Saint after only 2 years.

During the next two years while Tenma is away for the Holy War, Alone encounters Pandora who recognizes him as Hades's reincarnation. Upon discovering who he is under the influence of Hypnos and Pandora, he is ready to gather his Specters and starts launching the war against Athena. His identity is soon discovered by Tenma and Sasha.

What will happen upon their discovery on Hades's identity? Sasha who wishes to live with Tenma and Alone again like the time they were in the orphanage... Tenma who wishes to save Alone, even if he must injure him for that.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Remember I wrote about the original Saint Seiya in very first previous entry? Here's another sequel to the original one...Ooops, I should say it is pre-sequel as it happened 25o years ago before the original one. So, mostly of the characters in the original Saint Seiya are the reincarnation from The Lost Canvas. Plus there are many new characters are introduced such like Crane Yuzuriha, Altar Hakurei (Elder Jamir) and some from Hades's.

I really pity on those characters - Tenma, Alone and Sasha. Unlike the original Saint Saint, Sasha, Alone and Tenma had a special bond. Sasha is the sister to Alone while Tenma and Alone are best friends. But Alone eventually become Hades, their arch-enemy. Sure they are suffering because they have to fight against Hades in order to protect their world but in their heart, they are resistant to do so.

Alright, that would be enough for a review. Go to OneManga : Saint Seiya : The Lost Canvas or MangaFox : Saint Seiya : The Lost Canvas to read for your own evaluation. =P

Monster Hunter Orage

THE SUMMARY

The story takes place in a fictional world which is full of monsters and adventurers called Monster Hunters, who as their name implies, hunts these monsters.

The plot revolves around a young Monster Hunter named Shiki Ryuuhou whom was taken in as an apprentice to a Monster Hunter named Gurelli as a child. A few years after Gurelli's death, which was due to a gunpowder incident, he comes back to his master's residence, Akamaaya Town, to join the guild there.

In that guild, he meets a girl called Irie Jescar and after a series of events, he finds that she is the daugther of his master. From this point onwards, they form a party to find the legendary Miogaruna, which was Gurelli's life-long ambition.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wow, it is finally completed manga with only 14 chapters. -__- Only 14 chapters!!! Haha, it's another one of Hiro Mashima's masterpiece. Remember the manga "The Groove Adventure Rave" and "Fairy Tail"? That is him! It's very easy to recognize his illustration style! All masterpieces are almost similiar. XD

This story reminds me of Final Fantasy XII. Similiar to Final Fantasy XII, the Monster Hunter have to kill certain monster to get the loot in order to upgrade their weapon or something else.In Final Fantasy XII, they kill the monsters then sell to Bazaar to get the rare weapons or items.

To my surprise, this story is based on Capcom's game Monster Hunter. o.O I seriously don't know about it. I just learnt about it from Wikipedia. It is said for being widely popular in Japan and being the best selling PSP game. No wonder why they wanted to make it for a manga adaption. I feel this story is very great but too bad, the story has ended so fast!

Speaking of which, Shiki wields the twin swords and his attacks are based on wind element. It is the first time, I saw a character is able to utilize the swords based on the wind element. I never see any character using such this ability in other manga or game. It made me very amazed and stunned.

I recommend you ought to give it a try by reading Onemanga : Monster Hunter Orage or MangaFox : Monster Hunter Orage. Enjoy ya...

Shugo Chara!

THE SUMMARY

The little cute heroine, Amu Hinomori as a student at Seiyo Elementary is deemed as "cool and spicy" character with rumours speculate about her personal life. Feel torubled for not able to show her true personality of a shy girl, she makes wish for courage to show her true self.

Next morning, she finds three brightly coloured eggs. Three eggs hatch into Ran (Athletic) , Miki (Artist) and Su (Cook). Her life then becomes more much complex when she is recruited into Seiyo Elementary's Guardians and becomes the Joker.

With the title of the Joker, she is given a special task which she has to hunt down X-Eggs or X-Characters and purify it to original form.

At the same time, a company named Easter are busy extracting people's eggs in search of Embyro which can grant any wishes of anyone who possesses it. Together Amu and the Guardians must stop their evil doing.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I was introduced this story by my former schoolmate. Thanks to him kept pestering that this story is the best, I develop an interest and liking in this story after reading two or three chapters. This story reminds me of Sailor Moon since their story has quite similar concept from the aspect of transformation and abilities. Compared to Sailor Moon, it is much better as it has mixed different genres; comedy, fantasy, supernatural and romance!

Well, let me give a brief explanation on Chara and X-Egg. The Chara is a little mascot created from child's own wish and also based on their "would-be" personality. X-Egg is the corrupted form of people's dream, filled with resignations or resentments that give the children trouble. If I am in this story, I will pray for my own Chara...Wondering what kind of Chara it will be! XD

All the characters are amazingly likeable as they grows on you as the story progresses. Somemore, they have own Chara and the Chara is very obviously cute as you can see. Hmm, I am surprised that Chara also can be aid to the children to discover what they want. Sometimes the Charas are naughty by doing own thing thus that would make everything look hilarious!

Alright, enjoy reading this manga in neither MangaFox : Shugo Chara! or OneManga : Shugo Chara!.

Saiunkoku Monogatari

THE SUMMARY

Kou Shuurei's dream has always been to become a government official, but to do so she must take the Imperial Examinations, which women are not allowed to do. To compensate, she works at a temple teaching children in order to pass her dream on to those who can do what she cannot. Shuurei was born into a noble familly, but she and her father, who live together with their adopted son, Seiran, are very poor. Seiran wants to be Shuurei's body guard because he wants to protect Shuurei..The house is in disrepare and Shuurei must work odd jobs to make ends meet, while her father holds a position as a librarian to the Imperial Palace, a job that is very presigious but pays very little.

Shuurei is very hard working and always does her best at both house hold chores and her many jobs, but she can be a bit of a workaholic sometimes and when she gets into something she never stops working to get the job done.

Shuurei's whole world s turned upside down, however, when she recieves a request to come and work at the Imperial Palace as the temporary consort and tutor to the young Emporer, Shi Ryuuki, who shows a very promenent distaste for the kingdom and seems to be especially dull-witted. Shuurei, with a bit of pushing and prodding, as well as some good advice and a very strong will, manages to get the Emporer to learn at least a little, but he might not be as thick-skulled as he seems. And maybe he sees more in Shuurei than he should, and therefore may be just the person to make her dreams come true...

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I love this anime because it is an interesting when Shuurei try to take the exam, but she faces lot challenges from the greedy, evils, and inresponbility officers in the palace..So, it is not easy for her.. They always turn down on her because she is woman.. But, she is lucky because she get her friends who support her, especially the emporer Ryuuki. He cannot help her in the front of the officer because he is aware of his status as important 'emporer'. I think that they always love each other in their secret.. lol.. Funny,Shuurei thought that Seiran and Ryuuki are gay since beginning.. Maybe Seiran fell love on Shuurei so early since he is kid who adopted by Shuurei's parent..That is why he still want to follow her go to where.. Ryuuki cannot follow her and put his trust on Seiran and his friends when she gets the mission at outside..

This is very great! I finished to watch the season 1 and 2 ;Saiunkoku Monogatari. It still not yet complete, so it will continue to new season 3.. I will buy this anime when its complete! ^ ^

I know that it is not easy for Shuurei to choose Ryuuki or Seiran because she still love both!! :D

Better to buy new anime DVD or enjoy to read the manga Sainukoku Monogatari!

Tactics

THE SUMMARY

Tactics follows the exploits of the young man with the ability to see goblins and other mythical beasts named Kantarou Ichinomiya. Ever since he was born he had the 6th sense to see the demons and others mythical creatures called “Oni”. When he was a little boy his friend Oni told him about the creature that is stronger than Oni called “Tengu”, it is the legendary demon-eating goblin. Since that story told him he dream to have a Tengu that will be his buddy forever. When he grew up he became a folklorist, who write books and article about Japanese folklore, but he also work as a monster buster secretly. In the episode “The Black Goblin Awakens”, Kantarou went to exorcise monster he was lead to a rural shrine up in the mountain where the Tengu, demon-eating goblin was sealed there. When Kantarou breaks the seal, he named the Tengu Haruka, in naming a Tengu it forces to be a slave of someone who gave name with it. As the fulfillment of Kantarou dream, Haruka became his partner in fighting the evil Oni. With his tengu and his kitsune, they solve mysteries, and help the yokai situation in Japan.

For more information about Tactics

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I like the mystery screen about Minamoto Raiko and his group of soldiers come in. Together with another formidable demon, Raiko and his attendants plot many plans to try and force Kantarou to cancel the name contract or make Haruka awaken his real powers, such that they would be able to capture Haruka and present him to "that person" whose identity is unknown. If the name contract is not canceled or if the master dies, Haruka's power would forever be restrained and he would not be able to be used by the antagonists. But unfortunately those antagonist did not success in their evil mission and Haruka back in his senses and go back to Kantarou. They start again and do their usual routine such as fighting evil spirit and saving people. So, this make me curious about who is Haruko's previous master because I saw his previous master alike as Kantarou.. Maybe is Kantarou's dad or grandpa.. :D

It is weird that Haruka love to wear a tuxedo after he released from his seal.. :P Maybe he hate to wear the traditional cloth that remind him to remember his past? Or he changed his personality since he wakes up from sleep..? Well, my friends said this is the somewhat unspoken love between Kantarou and Haruka. So, the underlying homosexual tension never evolves nor is mentioned by any character, it is evident throughout the series … until the end where their relationship turns sour..

But, we sure said this story is very good and get funny characters also give u laugh out!

Enjoy to read the manga Tactics or you try to buy it in the anime shop.

Zero no Tsukaima

THE SUMMARY

Meeting our protagonist in this anime; Louise, a second year student at Tristain Academy of Magic where those who can use magic are either mages or nobles. Lousie however is terrible at magic and can never use it the way she wants to. Because of her current record, she is given the nickname "Louise the Zero" by her classmates.

Early in the school year, the second year students have to summon their familiars; this is considered a special ritual where a mage summons their eternal protector and partner.

With this power, he is able to defeat him in the duel. Together they face many mysteries and uncover unexpected truths including the nature of Saito's power and the truth behind Louise's inability to cast magic.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When I watched this anime, the first impression about this anime is that the setting appears to be very much a rip-off of Harry Potter's famed Hogwarts. But then when I watch this anime continuously, I found it is not very similiar... Just my first impression. :P But again, it's yes as it is much basically similiar to Hogwarts. A mage school.... And the world is wonderfully blended with such nice and soft colors that added with somewhat effects!

The characters in this anime are quite pleasure,often stuck to the humor and to relationship octagon, makes a full series of comedy. Satio just come from other world but he quickly become a likeable person at Tristain's! One who has a crush on him! One who goes crazy after him! One who becomes his rival! One who feel annoyed with him! Arr, all about him?! -.-" Those main characters in anime shares the common with Yuuji and Shana in Shakuga no Shana. Louise and Shana are both noticably fecrocious while Saito and Yuuji are both blindingly dumb!

Oh my! I don't know that there have 2nd season of ZnT: Futatsuki no Kishi; translated as "Knight of the Two Moons"! I must go to shop and buy this anime. Will do a review for you ya.

Btw, the manga is availble as well. Visit Zero no Tsukaima and enjoy reading ya!

Yakitate!! Japan

THE SUMMARY

“Yakitate” literally means “fresh baked” and the word “Japan” is actually a pun: (ja-pan) “pan” means “bread”; freshly baked Japanese bread!

Azuma Kazuma isn't terribly clever, but he's got a good heart and great skill - at baking. Since childhood, he's been on a quest to create the perfect bread to represent Japan internationally. Now, he seeks to enter the famous bakery Pantasia, in hopes of reaching his goal. But plots abound...

For more information about Yakitate!! Japan

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wow, this is my first time to watch this anime which is related with the bread, so it is really good story! Everyone should know what is about the bread because we always eat our bread on every breakfast, right? :D I think that Azuma is very genius when he was doing the bread with his different of techniques and always get the support from his trust friends; Kawachi, Suwa, and Kanmuri. Kawachi is very stupid but, he tried to help Azuma and his friends. Kanmuri and Suwa are very good at the making the bread but, they cannot beat Azuma.

They always show the different of recipes for bread. Sometimes, it provide the recipes - simple bread if you want to try it. I like to see the chapters 'Yakitate!! 25' - show different characters display during the judging are humorous and illustrate an aspect in Japanese food culture; in the culture food. For example, they have competition in Kyoto, mean Azuma and his friends have to think new idea to do new bread for Kyoto only. So, it’s enjoyable, fairly funny and well animated!

Enjoy to read this manga 'Yakitate!! Japan'

Black Lagoon

THE SUMMARY

Okajima Rokuro is a Japanese businessman…in a town full of Japanese businessmen. His normal day consists of social drinking with clients and being kicked around by his bosses. He finally gets a break though, as he’s sent by his company to the tropical seas of Eastern China to deliver a disc…only his boat gets hijacked by a band of mercenaries that were hired to steal it. “Rock” (as he is newly dubbed by his captors) catches the interest of the only female merc “Revy” as she thinks he’s worth a ransom, taking him hostage. However, the disc turns out to be more trouble than its worth, and complicates things both for Rock, and the mercenaries known as Black Lagoon.

This anime is mostly violent and blood scenes all go about..but, it is cool when they fight with the strongest assassin, killer, and others in many violent battle! There are six strongest women; maid, mafia, nun, dragon lady, etc..They never give up and refuse to die! O_O I think that this story is made between the moral question of right and wrong. It means that how they justify their beliefs in what is right and what is not, just as how existentialists believe that every person chooses their own values for their own subjective reasons..

Revy is very tough because she is very experienced with using the guns, so she is gunfighter! Rock is the simple-minded person..Rock's struggle for deciding whether he should remain with Lagoon Company; a criminal organization or return to his ordinary life of a law-abiding citizen. So, this conflict between Rock's and Revy's views on crime and moral is important. Maybe Revy will fell love on him? Who knows it? Haha. She loves to bully Rock..Pity him!

I think that it is not suitable for the kids who watch this because its about how the companies betray their own countries , betray their own employees and even discarding them as mere tools for their own greed. That people will do anything for their own lusts and desire ... killing , betraying , creating weapons and more of the violent ones..

If you like to watch this anime, it is better to buy DVD anime~ Or, you can enjoy to read the manga Black Lagoon.

Zatch Bell!

THE SUMMARY

Now their adventure begins!~

I'm shocked that many people don't know about this anime when I asked them about it. -_-" So I decided to promote this anime on Makoto Raiku's behalf. =P He should thank me for helping him to promote..LOL. =D Anyway, I at least want you to know about this only.

Wow, it's another one of the best animes out here, as it has a very uniquely original idea in its characters, storyline and the elements especially the emotions and feeling within the battles. Not like any others I have watched so far. Action fully-packed, a few crazy humorous jokes and different styles and power of mamodoes! I sometimes without realizing myself for yelling out when the mamodoes launched the attack. =D

However, there are a little problems as well, which is that each battle whether internal or between individuals, the scene uses dramatic visual effects causing a bit difficult to watch what they are exactly doing!~ @_@ But it at least didn't ruin or distort the whole story. =D I'm much enjoying to watch their adventure. This story is really meaningful, you can see. Zatch is too naive and stupid kiddo but he realizes after an encounter with Kolulu and decides to goal all depend on becoming the kind king of the mamodo world!

Over all it is really worth watching. I want to watch this anime but couldn't find in each DVD shops. :( Anway, thanks to OneManga, I'm able to read this story. Here you go : OneManga: Zatch Bell! I believe you will enjoy reading almost every chapters!

Tales of the Abyss

The battle system is the most commonly similiar in all RPG... Also features many skills and spells such as types of Artes and AD Skills to unleash upon enemies. When a character levels up, a character will learn new Artes and gain stat bonuses which when a certain statistic has large enough bonus, the AD skills is learned automatically.

Oh my, it's my first time to play Namco's product! I don't know that Namco is also that capable besides SquareEnix. I mean Namco produce a good story like SquareEnix's! Though SquareEnix is indeed great in composing 3D character and landscape.. To my surprise, Namco is good in composing anime-style skit and certain anime sequence... Unlike SquareEnix, they used Computer-Generated Imagery (CGI) to produce a sequence.

I really like this game, it is very easy but can be tough as well.. A lot of fun. You can learn recipe and cook yourself. Just find the recipe and you will cook for your friends. Your friends will comment on your cooking skills - when it included the skit. =P I find 20 recipe over the world and still have not mastered all yet! @_@ Easy to get the recipe but hard to get the indregient because they are damn expensive!

Mini games are also existed. Mostly mini games will earn your characters title. I'm crazy. I was working harder in order to get titles. =P Some mini games are very tough indeed. There are also types of modes for this game - Normal, Hard and Unknown. I am sure that Hard and Unknown are stronger version. I almost completed the Normal mode, will try Hard and Unknown mode later.

There are also manga version available. Read OneManga: Tales Of Abyss or MangaFox: Tales of Abyss. It will entertain your pleasure of reading =D

Now I heard there are also anime version. It is just released in fall 2008 and have been broadcasting in Japan now. I am looking forward to watch this anime. =D
