Learning my limits

So thanks to the animeme, I've been reading a lot more manga lately-caught up on FMA which is great. Read all of Bitter Virgin, which is great but horrifically angsty. Still waiting on more Doubt, which is also angsty and very creepy and not much with the lightheartedness.

Tried to read Bokurano-couldn't do it. Too depressing. Huh. I guess my casual sadism doesn't extend to children who just wanted to play a fucking video game.

Bitter Virgin is the most depressing thing I have ever read every single chapter of. Volume 4 better come out before I come to my senses!

Maybe I've watched one too many Korean dramas, but I didn't find Bitter Virgin too angsty ^^;; (STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN I HATE YOO)

I'm a sucker for detective series, so I read Detective Conan and Spiral :D

Lucky you weren't around for the Bradherley's Coach shifts.

A few memers read it because the various descriptions were so...off the wall. It turned out to be all that and so much more.

Basically, a guy in a coach picks up orphans for his "opera troupe." And by opera troupe, I mean rape. For the greater good.

I liked Bitter Virgin but I found that the end wasn't good. They were so many issues that where sort of brush off.

I thought it was all right. I would've have more of a problem with it if they acted like everything about Hinako was fixed, but to me it was more like "we don't know what will happen in the future, but just for right now, we can be there for each other." And I'm okay with that.
