If you're addicted to manga like I sadly am then Manga Traders is the site for you. I predict my bored unemployed self will be spending way too much time there in between searching for jobs online and going to various interviews. The sheer variety of manga there is so great and what I love the most is the category tags they have.
You want to see tons of shoujo manga? Click on shoujo link! Seinen? Seinen link! Slice of life? Link! There's a fucking link for everything. Including Gender Bender which is usually stories about dead guys getting stuck in the bodies of attractive females. My only gripe is there's not a lot in the Yuri category but what can you do? That's up to translators mostly.
Anyway, between the tons of manga and the board there it's a really awesome site. Currently my favorite manga on the site is Yakitate!! which is about a teenager who is obsessed with making the best bread in Japan and moves to Tokyo to become a baker and proceeds to have all sorts of bread baking adventures with other bakers. I know, it doesn't sound interesting but it really is.
Then again, I'm also the person who adores Kitchen Princess which is all about a orphaned girl who attends an ultra exclusive private school for the super talented and her talent is being a fabulous chef. I love Manga Traders because it totally opens you up to a huge variety of manga and in all the different categories. It's sad how excited I am about being able to read so much sports manga. lol. I even found a really good one about American Football.
And for the fun of it here's a super cool cover of the Linkin Park song Numb by Evanescence. Honestly, it's because they cover the song that I like it because I have this horrible aversion to Linkin Park. Maybe it's because they're the default lame tween angst band of current times. Whatever it is I really can't stand them.
For those of you who like Futurama and haven't bought Bender's Big Score? BUY IT! I want this show back on the air and the more people who buy their movies on dvd give us a chance of getting it back. Also watch the reruns soon to be airing on Comedy Central because that will also help the show. Honestly, if Fox brought back the humorous, if not intellectually dead, Family Guy then they should be able to bring back Futurama if enough people buy the dvds and watch the reruns.
I recently found out that it's Michi's favorite television show because of all the math jokes they have. lol. Which I find disturbing but so cute of her. I don't get most of the math jokes but I do find it hilarious they put them in. Plus the amount of mathematical and scientific thought they put into all their episodes. Impressive but somehow sad at the same time.
Anyway! I'm going to go back to reading my bread manga. I know, I know, that's sad in itself but whatever.
