Wait what ?

12 episodes ? I should really start paying attention again, I was all suprised Ryuusei no Gemini would end so soon ! Small price to pay for a good ending though. Yes, I liked it, more on that later. Well, I guess I’ll have to wrap up my thoughts before I get back to work ! A wonderful snapshot of my darling Misaki in the meantime.

Some more Christmas spirit !

The stats speak for themselves : people are reading my posts about Val d’Isère, so they must be concerned by the fact that JB Grange will not participate in the Vancouver Olympics. Saleté de genou !

You’ll be spared fangirl posts, I HOPE YOU’RE HAPPY !

It’s a kind of magic

In the past four years, I’ve spent some time wandering on a – let’s call it a forum, even sometimes writing posts.

This has led me to acknowledge an extraordinary ability :

I can make people want to read shoujo.

Regular people, who don’t even read manga at all sometimes.
Mind you, I say want to read, I don’t know if they follow up to that. But who cares ? Still an awesome superpower in my opinion.

I hadn’t done it in a while, but, urged by the Great Master of Propaganda (— err, you know who you are and I wouldn’t want to get kicked out), I commited a new crime and treated everyone in sight with my views on Sawako (French title of Kimi ni todoke). I’m currently watching the anime and discovered we’ve already got 5 volumes translated here (where have I been, seriously, I’m ashamed of myself). It’s in French so I’m not publishing it here, so I’ll just link it for the lucky bilinguals who come by. It’s here, along with the other posts I’ve written for this forum.

As for Kimi ni todoke – the anime, let’s just say I enjoy it and I might write a review when the anime’s over, but I’m not inspired enough to write regular posts about this show.

Darker than Black : Ryuusei no Gemini – so many things change, yet some are set in stone

Note : I’m stopping episodic posts but I’ll still talk about this show.

Changes, yes.

After a little bit of soul-searching (don’t I have a blog ? where is it ? since when haven’t I posted something ? am I bored at work right now ? should I find a subject ? hey didn’t I start it in November last year ? anniversary coming soon ?) I realized :
