Ahaha. So I started stalking following a few Japanese GL fans on Twitter. One of them began following me back (!), and another wrote "There's a foreign person who doesn't seem to be spam following me now, does this have some kind of meaning." XDDD;; Also, I'm kind of overwhelmed by just how much they use the thing.
Some news on the Gurren Lagann manga- the other princess is named ストレイア. Sutoreia? Streia? Storeya? Straya? I think I'll go with "Straya" for the time being... She sounds like a pretty interesting character. :O We get to see her and Nia's mothers in silhouette?! Guh, can't wait for a more in-depth summary and preview pics. I don't know if I can hope for full scans anymore. :(

surprisedOkay, now I'm in a Gurren Lagann mood. It's pretty cool to see that there's already fanart based on the image boards. I really hope this livens up the English fandom a little too. :)
I found a summary of the 2nd chapter of the Spiral Boy manga a few days ago, albeit on a different blog than the one I usually get my Gurren Lagann info from. I've been waiting for Chekisora to post her review of it too, in case she'll have more details, but it looks like she's preoccupied with her other fandoms...she's only mentioned buying Dengeki Daioh so far. I still hope she does it eventually. D:
Speaking of Dengeki Daioh, according to 2ch, Kotarou Mori's manga is doing the beach episode in the latest chapter. And a new character apparently appears. On one hand, I'm not looking forward to seeing all the fanservice (the manga makes it even more ridiculous than the anime, ugh). But on the other, I'm curious to see what the story will be like from now on, because since both Adiane and Cytomander were killed off in the last chapter, the manga is really starting to deviate from the TV series. I mean, Guame is the only General left now.
Which makes me wonder how the beach episode will be done, because the entire point of that in the TV series was that water is Adiane's forte. Guame's element is earth; I really can't see him fighting in the ocean. I suppose this 'new character' that will be appearing is a new antagonist then? Also, they already did the Yoko shooting at Nia thing in the last battle, but the damage to Nia's hair didn't look bad enough that she'd need it cut. Will Nia get a hair cut at all?
I wonder how Guame will be handled. I've always considered him the most interesting of the Four Generals. There's plenty of room to develop him more. Just as Thymilph & Adiane's relationship was developed, I'd like to see more about his relationship with Lord Genome. And if not that, I'd be happy just to see him being the crafty bastard that he is (the movie really let me down in that regard). Though I don't think the episode 11 plot could be done now, since Simon's already made his come-back and Nia's already learned why she was thrown away... And what about the episode 13 story? Cytomander is gone, Viral already knows Kamina is dead...I guess it's going to be cut entirely then? But Yoko still needs development in her relationships with Simon and Nia...
Well, however it turns out, it should be different and interesting. I hope the scans show up soon.
EDIT: HAHAHA WOW. Immediately after I posted this, I went to check Chekisora's blog, and she posted her review of the latest chapter of Mori's manga. *goes to read spoilers*
EDIT 2: ( HOLY CRAP )
You know, I've never been too interested in any of the previous FMA games, but I have to make an exception for this one. I kinda wish this was a movie rather than a game, since I don't have a Wii and don't plan on getting one. It's probably because the story this time doesn't revolve around some Mary Sue character but rather a member of Aerugo's royal family, which means there will be a political element, and it involves a part of the FMA world that hasn't really been explored in the manga. Claudio intrigues me as a character; does he really want peace, or is he planning something? Using Central City as the setting is a plus too; the game looks worth playing just to explore the place. And overall, it seems to focus more on the canon characters rather than casting them as background in another person's story (I haven't played any of the games, but that's the impression I got from what I've seen of them).
I don't really buy the "it ties into Volume 16 of the manga!" thing though; I don't see how a story like this could fit into that time frame, especially in regards to Scar and Winry. Though they seem to have Riza as the Fuhrer's assistant here. But anyway, if they eventually come out with a novel version of this game, I'll be sure to get it.
( Some thoughts on the latest manga chapter inspired by the latest episode of the anime )

contemplativeFUCK YES I needed something to pick my mood up!
( AHHHHHHHHHH OH MY GOD )
FKAJFASJGAUGJAJGijag1. Darker than BLACK gets a new manga!
( Image behind cut )
I am SO excited for this. It's by the character designer!!!! I've been wishing this would happen ever since I read that abomination that was the first manga. Hopefully it will be done properly this time! And it's starting this month! Eeeeee! *__*
2. The Blind Alchemist and other Fullmetal Alchemist omake get animated for the DVD release!
YESSSSS another dream come true! *__* This means all the other Gaidens will be animated too, right?! FUNimation's DVDs better have all the extras, because I will buy every one of them.
In other manga-related news, I still need to check out that new manga by the creator of Hellsing. And last I heard, the creator of Emma was making a new historical manga...has that even come out yet?

excitedReason why I haven't commented on the chapter yet: I'm at my Dad's house babysitting my little sister (which I will also be doing for the next five days). It's a little hard to concentrate when Spongebob Squarepants and Jimmy Neutron are playing in the background.
That being said, I'll give it my best shot.
( OH MY GOD ROY )
Oh, and ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif){kind=small}
