The Spirits Are Always With You

Shino: So a few days before Christmas I decided to watch Hikaru no Go finally because it was a short (75 episodes) anime that was on my "Anime To Watch" List. 2 days later, Da Levsta, who lives a 20 minute drive away, started watching it too and kinda getting interested in Go. (He stopped watching it, but he still wants to learn Go.) IT'S LIKE WE HAVE THE SAME THOUGHT PATTERNS AMIRITE??? 8D

So I watched that in like a week (cried near the end, read a few FanFictions...) but then I found out the manga actually goes a little furthur than the anime so I HAD to read the manga too. I'd only read up to like book 7 (out of 23) in English like a year or two ago, so I just started there. That took about 3 days to read it all, and I JUST finished reading it like an hour ago. All I have to do now to cross Hikaru no Go out of my life for good is to download the music and watch the OVA of it. XD In Japan there are 2 GameBoy Advance and 1 GameCube game for it and I kinda wish I could have one to learn how to play Go. (^_^;) My dad wants to learn too, and the only thing I could think of on how to learn is online or look for some kifu or tsume Go to practice with. *sigh* Well, maybe later...

Another series I got into is 07-GHOST. It's a monthly Shoujo manga, but the anime is supposed to start this year. SQUEEL!! And I read all the chapters in RAW Japanese form except the first 6 chapters. (I read HikaGo RAW too BTW.) I also listened to the drama CD of it just now. :P

Now that I think about it, there's ONE more series I got into and that's Tegami Bachi aka Letter Bee. It was one of the anime you could watch from that Shonen Jump anime tour site. I always thought it was cute, and after watching the anime, I read it too. Go too mangahelpers.com or onemanga.com to read it. Mangahelpers has them RAW, so I like it more now. XP

I dunno, I feel like I could of done more during my break, seeing as school starts on monday and all (CRAP!!!). I watched a TON of anime last year (Eyeshield 21, Reborn, Gurren Lagann, OoFuri...) but I guess I read more this year. I didn't meet any friends either. Crap. I gotta get comic books and a game back from these 2 guys before I/they forget! Hope you guys got some cool stuff/memories from your Christmas breaks, ciaociao!
