Actor/actress who should play Skip Beat!
(6 posts, 2868 views) Posted: 544d 19h, 10m ago by shojojunkie in Skip Beat
Skip beat is already out in live action! I am surprised to actually like the first episode, which was more or less faithful to the first part of the manga when kyoko and sho were living together, and of course, kyoko's breakdown when she realized Sho's tr ...

Is the end near?
(18 posts, 5072 views) Posted: 767d 4h, 36m ago by shojojunkie in Skip Beat
I'm still hoping for a Sho x Kyoko reunion in any form, whether in their professional lives or as potential lovers/special friends.
I don't complain that Sho doesn't appear as often, because when he does, he really shakes Kyoko up.
Ren has had a ...

How was the ending?
(21 posts, 4497 views) Posted: 996d 23h, 29m ago by shojojunkie in Ouran Koukou Host Club
It's a great ending! On the level of Ouran, of course.
What put a damper on things was...
Spoiler (highlight to view) Hani confronting kyouya about his feelings toward haruhi, and kyouya's condescending yet happy response.

Thoughts on Sakura Gari Ending
(20 posts, 3813 views) Posted: 1010d 7h, 31m ago by shojojunkie in Sakura Gari
In my mind the ending was far off... like they're very old, wealthy men who are well regarded in society.
They are "secretly gay" hence they play golf often for 40 years so they'd have the excuse to go off in the woods together. Souma, in ...

Quote Scanlations also help the fan base spread. I doubt they would sell anything if it were not for these scanlators (which are still around just hard to find). They are going to see a deep drop in their profit and hopefully it will make them realize the benefit of free sca ...

Worst yaoi cliche
(127 posts, 19156 views) Posted: 1064d 7h, 12m ago by shojojunkie in Yaoi/Yuri
1. seme being indifferent during sex.
2. stranger-zoom-to-lover with confessions of love right after meeting each other.
3. "I'm totally straight, I'm just gay for you, I don't think of sex with other men (except you)." ...

Guys that read shoujo

My hubby pointed out a good shojo manga to me and i got hooked. He reads shojo because the girls always seem to be a lot more realistic looking (less overemphasized tits, I know). It also gives him an idea what 'romantic sex' really means, how it s ...

TWOGK popped up when I read the title of this thread. The guy's a genius and a misfit with poor social skills in the real world. Although someone like me, who likes weird guys, would probably call him "normal".

Do you believe in falling in love online?
(41 posts, 3117 views) Posted: 1136d 11h, 46m ago by shojojunkie in Chatter Box
Yes, I believe in falling in love online. The internet is just another venue to find someone special. Like what happens in the real world, being made a fool of or finding real compatibility can still happen.
It's like a long distance relationship in reverse (you meet the ...

Art in Shoujo Manga
(26 posts, 3252 views) Posted: 1143d 6h, 53m ago by shojojunkie in Shoujo/Josei
Definition of good art for me means showing the emotion of "crying/lonely but trying to smile anyway" in the most perfect way possible.
With this criterion in mind, I have to say these mangaka take the cake....
