Re: Clean Discussion of Yaoi Thanks GD. Cover images will be good to show people the art styles. First though, I guess I can post up some info for anyone who might not know what Yaoi is. The below info is all from Wikipedia. "Yaoi is a publishing genre, which originated in Japan and often...

Re: General Josei Discussion Those are good guidelines. Good distinctions between Josei and Shoujo. If there's still titles that blur the line for you, could go either way, you have to decide who the manga is for. If its to recommend to someone younger, you might want to call it Josei, just to...

Re: What games are you currently playing?/ The Games Thread Yeah, he's visually impaired so most of the time I'm just his eyes. He's much better at the tactics and strategy of games. Sometimes I'll control the game if it's too difficult for him to see, but with turn-based battling systems, he...

I really liked Suikoden 4. I like the ship, sure it was bit annoying to pilot at first, but it got better, especially when you no longer have to fight enemies. Forgot what it was that did that, though. It's been a couple of years since I played it. But I liked having a ship to contain all my...

Re: General Josei Discussion Then I guess it's partly a person opinion. I mean, if you were a parent, would you let your 12 year old read Nana? Probably not. But maybe your 16 year old. Publishers will label things whatever they feel. Whether its what they can get away with or what they think...

Re: What games are you currently playing?/ The Games Thread Finished Zelda Wind Waker back in December. Playing Metal Saga now. Almost done with it. It's a very long game with a lot to explore, a lot to find. My husband and I have been playing it for 113 hours and 46 minutes.

Re: General Josei Discussion Maybe... I was never a fan of moving threads too much, especially if it has a lot of traffic, but it's up to you mods.

First off, this thread is to discuss Yaoi as cleanly as possible. That means no graphic images, no links and no graphic explanations from the mangas. If you want to share any of that information, please do so through Private Messages or Emails. Second, my goal with this thread is to expand...

Currently reading Bastard, Bleach, Zombie Powder, Her Majesty’s Dog, and Vampire Hunter D novels. Subscribing to Shonen Jump and Shojo beat. When Zombie Powder finishes, I'm probably gonna start another series, not sure what though... Probably a shoujo since I'm reading so many shounen titles...

Re: General Josei Discussion Do you really trust anything that Viz says? I don't. Take anything they print with a grain of salt, and then check a more official source. But that's just my opinion. :p

Re: General Josei Discussion Ah, thanks. I don't really mind buying manga. I'm actually looking to start a new series. So I just have to decide whether I want to try Nodame Cantabile or Tramps Like Us.

Re: If You Wanna Break Out This World (Vampire Girl) Yeah, it does look cool! Just wish something was complete.... Just have to wait.

Re: General Josei Discussion Just caught up on this thread, had problems connecting to the site - So Nodame Cantabile isn't published in English? What about the anime? I'll have to check out Happy Mania sometime. It sounds good. I've never heard of Flowers and Bees or Honey and Clover. I'll...

I just got into Her Majesty's Dog. It's really good - funny and a bit sexy. ^_~ I've got 3 volumes so far. Check it out at http://www.gocomi.com I've been getting Shojo Beat form the beginning, and lately I've liked Crimson Hero more and more. But Absolute Boyfriend is still my favorite and...

I just read the first volume of Her Majesty's Dog and I absolutely loved it! I just wish it had a faster release schedule, but then my pocket book wouldn't be able to keep up anyway. It at first tries to be a horror title, but turns out to just be a supernatural story of a girl who has the...
