purpose

I've been reading a lot of manga (Japanese comics) lately, so thought I might as well make a separate log for reviews and other comments.

When choosing a blogspot url, everything I tried was taken, so I eventually went with Skip Beat, the most recent series from one of my favorite authors, Yoshiki Nakamura.

My favorite titles are:
*Slam Dunk by Takehiko Inoue
Real is also quite good. Vagabond is brilliant but really dark. His art just gets better and better.
*Nausicaa of the Valley of Wind by Hayao Miyazaki
Brilliant epic.
*Here is Greenwood by Yukie Nasu
Funny high school story. It's pretty classic.
*Tokyo Crazy Paradise by Yoshiki Nakamura
