No, Amazon

[wednesday_10_00]

The fact that I once looked at the standard edition of Sekaiichi Hatsukoi DVD vol 2 does not mean that I want to buy it, especially since I already ordered the LE version. FROM YOU. Sheesh.

This weekend was terribly unproductive in terms of reading things to review (or actually writing reviews), because I spent most of my time cleaning and catching up on some old magazine reading. I will say:

*I usually try to read the random one-shots that fill up the pages of Ciel and Tres Tres not taken up by their uber-popular series, because you never know when you might find something good, but wow have they been craptastic lately. Maybe I need to stop wasting my time on those.

*Takagi Ryou's new series (what, "Game" isn't in the title? Is that allowed?) is BL Alice in Wonderland. THIS MIGHT BE THE BEST THING EVER.

*I might have to forgive Sakuragi Yaya for her new (non-Shunpei) series, because although I'm not so sure about the single father character, I am in love with his stoic pediatrician not-yet-boyfriend after only one chapter.

*So, somehow I never got around to reading Abe Miyuki's new series (Super Lovers) that's been running in Tres Tres for the past year and a half, so I also decided to read the first chapter or two, just enough to help me decide whether I should get in Japan or not. And then I stayed up past midnight last night reading every chapter I have. (happy family moe buttons: PUSHED) Er, I guess that means I'll be getting it.

(My parents are coming back from vacation tomorrow, so I guess I need to clear all that porn off the coffee table...)

Okay, torture me. What comes with the LE of the Sekaiichi Hatsukoi DVDs?

Oh, that's interesting -- insaneneko's reactions to Super Lovers have been so "WTF?" that I've pretty much been ignoring it (especially since Abe seems to specialize in not-really-BL, or has that changed since she moved to Ciel?). You will have to pimp it to me in Japan.

I am kind of sad that I haven't been getting magazines lately (should I buy the back issues while I'm in Japan? STOP IT, SELF), but I never had time to read them in the first place, so... argh. Anyway, thank you for reporting on what I'm missing!
