EYE R SMRT!

I accidentally attacked an Alliance member today; there was a bunch of enemies around since I was escorting an NPC through a pirate camp and didn't notice that one of the guys wasn't a pirate. *facepalm* He killed my voidwalker and turned me into a sheep before running off.

Needless-to-say, I got off lucky since he could have easily killed my ass.

------

I only have about six episodes of Getbackers to watch but I don't want to watch them since then the series will be over. :(

I started reading the manga of it but I don't like the art as much. I think however the art changes at some point since I've seen drawings by the manga-ka that look closer to the anime art.

It's hard finding the manga though. I only have the first 4 volumes but I believe a group is now working on Vol 5 so I'm thinking of holding off on it until they release more.

------

I finally started reading the Kobato manga. I've been waiting for more chapters to come out but I heard that Watanuki and Himawari have an appearance in the next chapter and want to see them.

Speaking of Watanuki and Himawari, I've been re-reading Holic. Originally I only started reading it because of the TRC crossover and it wasn't until partway through when I went "Wow, this is really good!" so I've been wanting to re-read it for a while to make sure I didn't miss anything. It's fun picking up on all the little crossover references that I missed the first time since it was only the 2nd CLAMP story I read.

Doumeki/Watanuki is so canon.

Ah yes. I was recently re-reading HOLiC as well. It was one of my first CLAMP works as well, so it is fun to go back and realize how a lot of the thing in HOLiC tie together with their other works.

Doumeki/Watanuki is so canon.

Yep, especially after reading it altogether, it is just that much more obvious, lol. Not that it wasn't before, but yeah :3

I remember the first time I read it, thinking that Doumeki/Watanuki was obvious but I fine it's even more-so now, knowing that CLAMP makes their hinted, subtexted pairings canon.

I finished watching GetBackers a while ago and oh, I feel so empty. One of the best anime series I've ever watched, srsly. I don't understand why the fandom isn't the biggest fandom ever! Fangirls tend to latch onto shounen series because of the bishies and all of the slashing potential and GetBackers has both the bishies and more slashing potential (canon gay, hello!) than any other shounen series out there yet the fandom is dead. The manga is quite hard to get and the translation groups is certainly taking it sweet time releasing each volume. Gah! I wish the anime had had another season because I'm sure it would've gotten subbed faster than the manga's getting translated. D: Isn't the hospital episode the best filler ever? Actually, all of the fillers are fantastic. Also, I even like the one canon het pairing quite a bit and all of the females are pretty awesome, which cannot be said about most shounen female characters. In conclusion, GetBackers is teh love. Yep.

I really adore Kobato, both the manga and the character, so so much. There's something about Kobato that makes her so adorable and likeable, srsly. I recommend you read the Temporary series as well, it's only 7 chapters long and it's oh so lovely! And I heard about Watanuki and Himawari and eh, who cares about Tsubasa?! I want Kobato (and more detailed HOLiC) spoilers nao!


Doumeki/Watanuki = ♥ ♥ ♥

The hospital ep was great! The entire thing was hilarious but especially at the end when Akabane showed up! I also really liked the hot springs ep where Ban and Ginji thought they were spying on some hot naked girl and it turned out to be Kazuki, lol. I love all of those crack filler eps.

Kobato is indeed adorable. I was expecting not to like it but she's just so sweet. I agree, I want more Kobato and Holic!

Getbackers is TOO good :D My favourite escene is when Ban & Ginji get in that trap following the monkeys, I cried!! XDDDDDD

about Kobato, it is adorable, and th eguy with the long pony tail (forgot the name), looks exactly like Fuuma *_*

But in the new Kobato he almost does not appear TTT_TTT I prefered the 'old' one. Btw, 7 chapters? I only have 4 of every 'kobato', the ones at chibiyuuto's site, are there more?

Haha, they didn't just get trapped by the monkeys they continuously got trapped by them! XD

I like that guy too (don't know his name) but he's not in it very much yet. He was only in half a chapter.

There's only 4 chapters of the current Kobato but 7 chapters of the temporary one. I downloaded them from here (http://clampno.lumiere.free.fr/projects/kobato.htm) but haven't read the temp series yet.

I meant trapped in the 'cord-wired-bad', that detail, when Ban pushes ginji's face against the cords cracked me XDDDD

And thank you!!! there were more chapters or Kobato!!! I only had 4 :P *goes to download*
