I started reading Ten Count, a BL series that seems to be very popular at the moment. It's about a man with OCD and a young counsellor who befriends him. I'm only a few chapters in but it's very nice so far.

Now I read only the Evangelion. For something else, I will not have time until summer.

"Kimi ni Todoke" had 2 seasons of anime as well. It was very cute. Typical stumbling-bumbling high school romance.

Last week I read the first two volumes of Ouran High School Host Club. I had to do part of it for a translation homework assignment. It was pretty fun, even if some of the humour feels a bit too much of its time.
It was definitely better than the other manga assignments I've had (Bleach and Black Butler).

That's a coincidence, I just picked up the first volume of OHSHC the other day. Haven't got far since my lack of vocabulary has made it slow going, but it's a nice bit of nostalgia.

I can imagine it would take a while to read it entirely without translation. It's got that style of comedy where every character, major or otherwise, seems to need to react to everything that happens, so you end up having a lot to read.
Having said that, I was never into it at the time, but I could also appreciate the nostalgia.

I'm rereading Shimanami Tasogare in Japanese. Never actually finished it first time around so I'll try to get through this time, I really like it. I've never seen such a good, realistic, sensitive portayal of a variety of LGBT characters. The art style is so nice too. Feel like I said all this before. It still stands!

After the superb "Aku no Hana" by Oshimi Shuuzou I decided to have a read of his other epic manga "Happiness". I couldn't stop reading it and ploughed through until it got darker and darker and bloodier and bloodier and more grotesque until I simply had to stop. It seemed a lot like "Oyasumi Pun Pun" which had its dark parts but was a very engaging story until it got darker and darker until I drew a line.
Its a pity, I'll never know how either of them ends but then again I'm not sure I want to.
Recommended if you like blood, horror, gore and more blood but otherwise, avoid. His artwork though is stunning and he can put you inside the head of an insane person very quickly. I can recommend the first 2 or 3 volumes for the incredible artwork alone.
