Gokusen - Kozueko Morimoto

The fearless granddaughter Kumiko Yamaguchi of a great yakuza boss decided to become a high school teacher of delinquents. She wants to give hope to the students most people give up and trash around like the her family. However there is a special student in her class and becomes her support while she tries to help everyone in the background as she attempts to hide her secret. But as hard as she tries her yakuza roots come back to find her, or rather she can't run from dangerous troubles.

When I saw the art cover I was not really expecting too much but it was a GREAT READ. She is so different and funny I kept loling while I should have been sleeping I got in trouble...But it was worth it and the other 5-8 times I reread it again. Really funny...Yea read it

Can't believe that I didn't post about it earlier.

I's - Masakazu Katsura

I's - Masakazu Katsura

Meet Seto Ichitaka, who is kinda loserish when he is near his love, Yoshizuki Iori who is pretty and nice (how rare). He acts the opposite of how he should (stupid), because he gets o nervous. However one day they are forced into a parternship on a class project. Things started to roll from there and we go through his ups and downs with trying to win her love.

I put off reading this manga for a really long time. I thought it would but really stupid, don't like ecchi too much...when the main character is the dude. But the art finaly got me to read the manga. And I loved it, sooooo cute!!! It is very refreshing with seeing a guy get worked up that way for a girl. So pure, which is reallllllly rare. There is some ecchi but its bareable, but it was pretty emotion I think I cried a bit somewhere...

Cute read, and funny

Devil & Devil - Yuuki Miyoshi

I got busy and very lazy...but I'm trying to get out of my shell...trying not very hard...anyway...um during my hibernation I read loads of manga...tried anyway

Devil & Devil - Yuuki Miyoshi

It's about an angel and devil who became wounded during a battle and fell down to Earth. They enter two humans that are humans and are forced to live together. The hot blooded devil had entered the weaker younger brother who was a weird nerd that. The calm angel entered the older brother who was the problem child of the family. Still involved with matters between the angels and devils in their human forms, we are throw into a highway of adventure.

I thought it was funny...aw the irony...but it started to piss me off because the characters were so 2-d like you can so predict their responses. But still was a funny read. Its complete and pretty long with 15 volumes so it kept me busy for awhile. But is a no brainer so it was quick for 15 volumes. Not really crazy about the art either but it was passable...

After School Nightmare - MIZUSHIRO Setona

After School Nightmare - MIZUSHIRO Setona



Everyone has problems that they have a hard time facing. Their real selves-and this class is made for people like that. To graduate from the school they must fight to find the key and accept themselves. This manga revolves around Mashiro Ichijo, who is half male and half female! In his Thursday class, he and his classmates enter their dreams and battle for the key.

One of the best mangas I ever read in a while. I got a little confused in it with the dissappearing people and stuff. However it made sense at the end...well kinda. Anyway it was sooooooo good!!!! A must read, plus it's only 10 volumes.

Boys Over Flowers - Youko Kamio

A MUST READ!!!

Boys Over Flowers/Dumplings Over Flowers/HanaDan/Meteor Garden/Hana Yori Dango - Youko Kamio

Tsukushi Makino is a girl from a poor family that some how got into a super elite school for the super rich. Her family had tried their hardest to get her in to nab a super rich husband. Tsukushi has always helped the weak and thinks herself as "weed" that always comes back and never losing. So when she is faced with the school's F4, a group made up of four of the most handsome and powerful guys in the school she decides to fight back, only to cause their leader to misunderstand and fall for her?!

This was an all time favorite manga for me. I still reread it from time to time, and being that it is 37 volumes I can never remember what had happened so its like reading it for the first time. I mean the fashion is kinda outdated...and the art style isn't that great, but as you read it you kinda fall for it.

Also I loved the characters, they were so freaking funny. I hate it when they always make the female characters weak and always crying, which Tsukushi is the total opposite of. I love strong female characters!! I mean the male leads still save her, because she is a girl-but she tries to fight back and solve her own problems.

There are dramas that were made from this manga...If I feel like it I'll link them...Maybe

Kaqesaki Yuna -Karin

Chibi Vampire/Cheeky Vampire/Karin - Kaqesaki Yuna

I started reading this manga a long time ago, but it wasn't finished then. I finally get to see how it ends!!!

Ok, so this manga is about vampires. Karin is however, very different from normal vampires, where she produces too much blood rather than sucking blood from her victim. What's worse is that now every time she sees her classmate, it rises her blood count!

The art is pretty cute and the story is cute...so far, I'm like at volume 8...anyway time to finish it!

omg I just finished it and it was such a great manga!!! It was such a prefect ending but it felt kinda sad. The love from family...made me cry

RYU Geum Chel - Ares

Ares - RYU Geum Chel

I'm like going through the whole list at MangaTraders...yea...I kinda want to read everything from there, through with the whole community uploading new manga everyday I don't think I can get through the whole list, which is a pretty good thing though...

This Manga is a Manhwa, NOT A MANGA.

Ares enters a guild of mercenaries and meets new friends, Michael, and Baroona. I don't want to explain their past here because then it won't be as fun to read...so that's all I will be telling you...They are all runing towards something and away from something. I'm not done with the series but so far it has kept my interests. War, princes, slaves and venagence for one's only master/father like figure...

The style is pretty rough and simple, but it's still pretty good. And the story is great too, not just all about adventures, there are stuff on politics and war.

Ryoji Minagawa - Project Arms

Project Arms - Ryoji Minagawa

From Manga Traders
Ryo Takatsuki, a normal high-school student, does not realize that he was implanted with nanomachines to replace his severed arm, not until the implant begins to awaken to form a weapon called ARMS. After meeting his fellow comrades who also possess similar ARMS, he starts on a journey to fight Egrigori, the organization who has used him as a guinea pig and is now out to recapture him and his friends. Along the way he makes new allies and enemies, and must also come to terms with the being inside of him.

Great manga, and then after you think its over it the next chapter begins! The art work isn't really to my taste because the characters aren't all eye candy, but story wise this is really good. I love to watch their development plus also the manga is very romantic in style and echos Frankenstein but more modern. It is really scary...you never know this could be happening right now...yep...Anyway I also liked how the tied in the story Alice in Wonderland, which is one of my favorite books. That guy was so high on crack...wish I could be Alice and go on her adventures. Which also remind me that next year? a new Alice in Wonderland will be out with Johnny Depp as the Mad hatter, which is my fav character hehehe ^^ and directed by Tim Burton!!! I love all his moviessssss!

Then when I was looking for pictures I found this video. Really kool, the bunny looks like a Pokemon tho...

Yoshiki Tonogai - Rabbit Doubt

Rabbit Doubt - Yoshiki Tonogai

OMGGG!! When I was fixing the Liar Game post I thought about Rabbit Doubt, a manga I read awhile ago but wasn't completely scanlated. So I went to check it out just now and it's completely done!!! YAY!! So after posting about I will read it...So scary...it's night time ='''(

Anyway the manga revolves around a game that is called Rabbit Doubt, where all the players are rabbits and one person is picked as a wolf disguised as a rabbit. They have to find who is the wolf before they are all killed because in each round a rabbit will be killed by the wolf in disguise. Some players wanted to met in person but then they were kidnapped and woke up in a weird place?! One of the players made the game real! WHO IS THE WOLF NOW?? They must find out soon before they are all dead!!

The bunnies are soooo cute!!!! Reminds me of Happy Tree Friends!!

Shinobu Kaitani - Liar Game

Liar Game by Shinobu Kaitani

From Null:
Congratulations! You are one of the 1 in 100,000 people who has been entered in the amazing LIAR GAME TOURNAMENT!

Along with the postcard there are 100 million yen in notes. That's the beginning of the Liar Game. When the game ends, in 30 days, you will have to return your 100 million. If your opponent steals them, he can keep them as a prize, and you will have a debt of 100 million...

I am so in love with this one. Its not the usual stuff where most people can think of an make. Its a lot of brain twisters, which reminds me of deathnote which I just loveeee so much. I loved Light until he begged for his life.

Hiroya Oku - Gantz

Gantz by Hiroya Oku

From Mangaupdates
Somewhere in Tokyo, there is a room. In that room is a black sphere. Periodically, people who should otherwise have died are transferred to the room. There, the sphere gives them special suits and weapons, and sends them out on a mission to kill aliens here on Earth. While these missions take place, the rest of the world is largely oblivious to them. These missions are lethal--few participants survive them. The sphere calls the shots, and it's not the slightest bit nice. Its name... Gantz.

This is the crazyest shit I have ever read-well maybe not so true...but still this is pretty like woah WTF! But it is awsum, but now I'm thinking WTF because it started out with aliens and now its like nuclear war? So I'm confused...THIS MANGA IS NOT FOR THE FAINT HEARTED! VERY GRAPHICAL SEX AND VIOLENCE WARNING!!!! But I love and and am waiting to see what happens next *smiles sweetly*

Tachibana Higuchi - Gakuen Alice

Gakuen Alice by Tachibana Higuchi

From Tokyopop:
Young Mikan runs away to Tokyo to follow her best friend, Hotaru, who has been enrolled in an exclusive, secretive private school for geniuses. But it turns out that Alice Academy is a lot more than meets the eye. If Mikan wants to stay by Hotaru's side, she has to both pass the strange "entrance exam" and face the even greater challenge of befriending her very odd new classmates. Whether it's Hotaru's gift for inventing gadgets, the cranky Natsume's fire-casting ability, or Professor Narumi's control of human pheromones, everyone at the school has some sort of special talent. But what ability, if any, does Mikan possess? Mikan is going to have to rely on her courage and spunk if she's going to stay in school, or even stay alive!

When I saw the picture they had on mangaupdates, I thought it looked stupid artwise and thought it would be one of those kiddy girly things. But it isn't like that and its pretty kool.

Nicky Lee - The One

The One - Nicky Lee

It's a Manhua not Manga but I don't want another label...so it's a manga ok?!

The fashion industry is beautiful and Cane Lele was born right into the middle of it. Her parents where both models until they died in a plane crash. Now living with her grandmother, she finally decides to enter the modeling field after years of persuasion by her aunt who is a fashion agent. She had fallen for a black and white photo of Angus Lanson and wanted to be in the same industry. However during a photo shoot her grandmother dies and gaining courage from Angus's brother they begin to be of importance to each other. Meeting up again in New York, where will all this lead?

I saw this manga a loooooong time ago, but never when to read it. I had no idea why...But one day I was really bored and decided to read it...and OMG it was amazing. I loved the art, so pretty! And the clothes are really nice too. And the story reminds me of Skip Beat they are pretty different, in a good way of course! I love her character, so strong...and sometimes childish...Plus I love Eros Lanson...what a happy bum...hehehe

Aya Nakahara - Lovely Complex

Lovely Complex/Love Com/Rabu Kon/Lovely Complex Plus - Aya Nakahara

Most girls like guys who are taller than they are and most guys look for girls that are shorter than they are. Well this a problem for Risa Koizumi and Atsushi Otani. Even though they like the same things, react the same way and the compatibility machine told them they are 100% compatible for each other, Risa is 172 cm (5'7") and Atsushi is 156 cm (5'1"). They always make fun of each other for their height complex and what do they do with the feelings that are growing for each other?!

A funny and cute manga. Risa and Atsushi make a cute couple and she is not annoying. I have romantic mangas and the main character is some little ittle girlie girl. Pisses me off, she is a normal girl and even though Atsushi is short, he can be really manly. So it's a different kind of romance manga. Very refreshing.

Takashi Hashiguchi - Yakitate!! Japan

Freshly Baked!! Ja-pan/The King of Bread/Fresh Made Japan/Yakitate!! Japan - Takashi Hashiguchi

Azuma Kazuma hopes to make the bread that will be able to represent Japan. He use to hate bread and though that as a Japanese one should only eat rice, but fell in love with bread once he had a taste. To convince his grandfather to eat bread he was taught that with the right ingredients he could make bread go with any kind of meal. This is his jonery to make JAPAN (pan is bread...so japan...get it?)

This was actually the first manga I ever read. I was 12? or 11? Either way I loved this manga and since I didn't have my own coputer back then I had to beg this big brother to let me read it on his...well he got me addicted to it, and there was another manga I was reading...but I kinda forgot the name...Anyway it's all about making bread, and you can learn a lot of stuff from the manga, like the history of bread. It was really good in the beginning but it started to get really stupid later on. In the begnning it was kinda believe able to an extend but then we have people dieing and coming back to life (which I was ok with), people going back in time to save their parent (which I was also ok with), and people turning into dams and turtles (which I thought was just plain stupid...). So I kinda stopped reading it for awhile, but I will still finish it when it is complete but I will never read it again because it got so bad...But it gave me lots of laughs so its still really good^^

FUJISAKI Masato - Wild Life

Wild Life - Masato Fujisaki

Iwashiro Tesshou was a useless person who did nothing worth mentioning but had a special skill of having a perfect sense of hearing. One day he saved a dog and began to care for it and found that it had an illness. From then he found his love for life and animals and became a vet.

Currently incomplete but it is pretty good so far. He is someone who is not just book smart and has the passion for his job, making it entertaining to read.

KUBO Tite - Bleach

I'm really bored right now...So I decided to write reviews about all the manga's I've read so far...This will take forever...So until I have something better to do...here we go

Bleach - Tite Kubo

Looks so cool hehehe

Seeing spirits are kinda kool. But it can get awhile to get use to, and for Ichigo Kurosaki who has been able to see them his whole life is normal. He meets a shinigami named Rukia Kuchiki who came from soul society to deal with negative spirits called hallows. Hallows eat things with high spirit concentrations. Rukia gets injured and he barrows her power to protect his family and saves them. However he accidentally drained her powers and his life as a shinigami begins!

It isn't complete yet and it gets better as time passes. I can't wait for the rest of the manga!! And there is lots of fighting ^^

Haruto Umezawa - Bremen

Bremen/Buraidan Bureemen/The uninvited guys of Bremen - Haruto Umezawa

It starts with the meeting between Romio Kasugi and Hino Reijii. Reijii is running away from home so that he can play in a new band. Kasugi is heading towards being at the "top"

of something (he didn't pick what yet though...). They become friends, met their dummer Hayama Ryo and brass Fujii Ran and form a band. Each character has their own issuses and they go through them with the help of each other in search of their freedom.

This is a really quick read, only 9 volumes. It is sorta like Beck...Yea...but then there was a really weird thing with mind control through music? It was weird and kinda off...but it suits Kasugi, makes him kooler. But I felt that the end was kinda rushed, other wise it is really good.

MATSUEI Yuusei - Demonic Detective Nougami Neuro

Demonic Detective Nougami Neuro/Majin Tantei Nougami Neuro

It starts when Yako's father dies and the demon Neuro arrived to the surface. He is a demon that eats "puzzles", or mysteries. He takes Yako as his doll and uses her to get more meals while searching for the "ultimate" puzzle. It is like Detective Conan but the art style is more refined and has more of a plot...? I like this manga better because it involves the character's more and the cases are part of a bigger picture. Where in Detective Conan the characters do not develop as much but the cases are more complex. It gets more bloody as the manga progresses.

I really like this manga, even though I was reading it all at one time I never got sick of it. When I tried to read DC I would start to get bored because it's always they go somewhere and there happens to be a case. Rinse and repeat, but this manga goes somewhere...so I guess I prefer the plot and pace of this manga. Plus I got attached to the characters and cried a little...
