new year+viewfinder manga+KHR manga ch224

HAPPY NEW YEAR! yay:D it's finally 2009 and i was hoping to move on a bit with my life. but then again, this signifies the end of my holidays and my wonderful days of slacking and non-stop anime action. Looking back at this holiday, i realised i have totally dedicated it anime, not saying it's a good thing, but wow. I finished/watched like 20 animes series+OVAs...best of which includes junjou romantica, kuroshitsuji, kateikyoushi hitman reborn! (yep, around 70+eps!) and kyou kara maou :D of course, when the holidays ends, i have to revert back to seriously studying cos i must not let that elusive 4.7 slip out of my reach! anyways, this means i'm gonna cut back on blogging abt anime and also watching them, but i suppose using the com on saturdays should be okay!

To mark the end of 2008 and of course to keep me company while both my parents are holidaying away in battam, i started and finished the viewfinder naked truth arc! yes, its a yaoi series...but since i am a dedicated fujyoushi and shonen-ai fan, beware of some of the lovely shonen-ai entries that i will post on this blog. Ppl who can't take such stuff should skip such entries haha. anyways, back to viewfinder. IT IS AWESOME :D the art is awesome and so is the storyline. It's about a freelancer photographer Akihito Takaba who was caught photographing the "mafia" head Asami and as a punishment, Asami did you-know-what to him and of course this caused feelings to start developping between the two. There is a lot of explictness in this manga, which i skipped most of cause i really couldnt take it, so beware! (skip 3-4 pages if need be!) In the Naked Truth Arc, Akihito is captured by Feilong(Someone who holds a grudge against Asami) and Asami sets out to save Akihito from the Chinese mafiaso. This arc is very emotional and readers get to see a new side of Feilong, which is very cuteeee :D Hint Hint:

Woots for Feilong, im starting to like him more and more:D

Though the ending was shorter than i thought, it was still a good read! This marks the tempory end of the viewfinder series and it is said that another chapter will be released in 2 months or so. this viewfinder series might even be serialized into an anime. WOOHOO! *keeping my fingers crossed*

As for the Kateikyoushi Hitman Reborn! manga, I am very very happy to say that VARIA HAS RETURNED!!! Ever since the ring conflict arc i have been waiting for varia to make a comeback cos they were such an awesome group, especially Bel, Squalo and Xanxus :D I got a horrible idea that Xanxus died when i watched the anime and i was in terrible shock, as Xanxus was soooo awesome and i didn't want him to die at all:( Thankfully, he didn't!!! He appears yet again in chapter 224, better, cooler and stronger! *Fangirl Squeal!* MUHAHAHAHAHA, okay that was more like evil fangirl smirk. Varia arrives back at around chapter 220 so watch out for them! i've read it on mangafox.com, but i'm still going to buy it once it gets released into the tankobon! I've already bought 3 volumes, and since it's such a classic i'm so going to get the whole set :DD Go read, it's totally worth it!

New year resolution would mostly be on studying, and hopefully better my violin and piano skills :D everyone have a good new year! Hope that i can concentrate more on my studying and not get distracted too easily! Shall hope to keep this anime otaku blog running too! meanwhiles, no more anime for me, but past reviews shall be added! Keep reading :D
