manga only if I like it
Makoto Tateno – DokiDoki/DMP – 2010 – 1 volume
I reviewed this over at the Manga Village, so you can check out my thoughts over there.
It is my least favorite of the limited selection I’ve read of Makoto Tateno’s work, and she’s usually good for it. But it is kind of seasonal, if I can be a day late in the Halloween festivities. Vampires and all.
Happy Thanksgiving, if you're into that! I just posted my 3,500th review on this site (which doesn't count anything in the articles category), so I'm feeling pretty good about that right now.
I've recently finished off several series. There's Oh My Goddess, of course, which ended about a month back and I still miss (and still need to post the rest of the reviews for). I also recently finished Gunslinger Girl, Yukarism, Eyeshield 21, and I'll probably polish off The Devil Does Exist this weekend. Most of those were pretty great. The end to Eyeshield 21 was a beating-a-dead-horse Shounen Jump ending, but most of that series is pretty fantastic.
Next I'll probably read the rest of Claymore (great fantasy, and just recently ended), and a little more of Prince of Tennis, though I'm less excited about that one now. I'm also looking to catch up on Bride of the Water God, then finish Goong as well. So glad that one started coming out again, and finished!
You can do searches for things like authors, publishers, and keywords now. It help to put your search in quotations, since a search for Kaori Yuki will also return series for Kaori Yanagida, Kaori Ozaki, Yuki Nakaji, and Yuki Obata, but "Kaori Yuki" will only return reviews where I talk about her and her series.
Also, clicking on a series name in a post will, for some reason, take you to a page with every single post on that subject on wordpress.com. To see other reviews on Slightly Biased Manga, use the series links in the sidebar.
