  1. #mangamonday Maison Ikkoku: Great romantic comedy. Wasn't hooked at 1st but now totally addicted. Almost done, would love to see as VIZBIG.
  2. @sesho1 Thanks! I'm glad to know I'm not the only one fussy about stuff like this!
  3. @PreCur I resisted all of about 15 minutes. I'm powerless before the Ginza Girl charm!!!
  4. #mangamonday: Club 9 - rereading once again based on @PreCur's write-up last week. Man, do I ever love this manga. http://tinyurl.com/osus8m
  5. @johannadc Sounds good! How about Thursday, July 2, the midpoint of 2009?
  6. @johannadc I'm not alone! And I don't think Christopher Butcher has posted his yet, either, so now I don't feel so bad.
  7. Yay! Just got notice that Flower of Life 4 shipped from Buy.com!!! Hooray!!
  8. @MangaXanadu I was thinking of doing a meta-post about all the posts that have gone to the great Blogging Graeyard to die.
  9. My Ranma post has all the scans done already so it'd be a shame to waste them.
  10. I still have several half-finished Rumiko Takahashi posts I hope to complete, though.
  11. @MangaXanadu For me it's hard to go back to old posts. I tend to lose interest in an idea if I don't act on it right away.
  12. I still have a nearly complete 2008 Year in Review post I never finished. I keep thinking I should clean it up and post it for nostalgia.
  13. @MangaXanadu For me the problem is lack of time, not lack of ideas. I have so many unstarted & unfinished posts it's not funny.
  14. @funnypages Me, too. Tower and Buy.com both usually ship individual books as they're ready with no charge (I always choose free shipping)
  15. (And, yes, I did just place a preorder last month, but only because there were actual comic floppies I wanted. For books I'd rather wait.)
  16. And I'd get fed up tracking when late books arrived & which were canceled or resolicited. I'd rather just wait & buy them when they're out.
  17. @funnypages I know POs are important to pubs but as a cust I hate them. In the past I often lost interest in books I'd POd 3 months earlier.
  18. @debaoki And thanks to Deb I have the bilingual ed. of Kosaku Shima. Neat to see the original Japanese but can distract from reading story.
  19. What's been on my mind this week: Steve Rude & Nexus http://tinyurl.com/pz3cgz http://tinyurl.com/mxcscz http://tinyurl.com/rc7gak
  20. @PreCur No, they're the same old tacky kind of booth babe: http://tinyurl.com/ra9hxd
