Read This! Twilight The Manga

[dreiser]

I'm one of those people who loves Twilight because it's made to be sporked. I'm a huge fan of things that are so bad they're good and oh boy, does this novel series qualify. That being said, I did sort of do a sad fangirl squee when I found out it's being made into a manga.

Dear god why do you ask?

Mostly because I'm a sad shoujo fangirl. I admit it. I'll probably die an old lady with tons of fucking manga that have the same sorry plot and I'll keep reading them and loving them and insisting because of this minute character or plot difference the stories are SO not the same! Except they really are.

Twilight is painfully bad sporkable funny as a novel but when it's made into a manga? I hate to admit it but it becomes the essence of everything that I love in a shoujo manga. I'm curious to see how Edward sparkles in black and white format though. Hmm. It puzzles. And you know what makes my shoujo obsession even sadder? The fact that I'm a big ole lesbian and have zero interest in men sexually and romantically but all these fucking manga I obsess over are almost 100% totally heterosexual romance.

Lame. It's so lame of me. I can't help it though, I just like me some romance.

Maybe the manga will include the Japanese onomotopaeia for sparking? I love how Japanese has onomotopaeia for things that don't even make sounds, like curly hair and sparkling.

I'm one of those people who likes to rip into Twilight but not gonna lie, I'm probably going to check out the manga.
