Site Poll - Chat Box 161 - Difference of Art
(13 posts, 2119 views) Posted: over 12 years ago by book_lover in Chatter Box
Most of the time, at least between manhwa and manga. The style difference is pretty distinct. Manhua is harder to identify. The differences are still there, but more subtle.

Same as the others. There's no point in buying an ebook version when there are scanlations available. What I want is the hard copy and I'm not spending money on anything but that.

Usotsuki Lily has this some of the time. The boy is almost always dressed as a girl, except for the rare male appearance, and the girl sometimes dresses up as a guy, though not often.

Because You Smile When I Sing is a very cute one-shot with a mostly silent protagonist whose face always looks angry to other people.

Wow! You sure wrote a lot. I noticed that you used quite heightened language.
I could see this condensing into a poem. After all, many poems are about ordinary things looked at deeply. These lines seemed particularly poetic and with potential to me:

There may be a higher being of some sort. I don't think it can be proved or disproved. At the least, I hope there's something beyond death. That would make me agnostic, I suppose, since agnostic seems to cover the whole range between organized religion and atheism. Mo...

Oh, I thought of one. That side character rich kid from Austria in Gokusen. He's booksmart but not very bright, very odd appearance and he says and does inappropriate things all the time because he believes everything the kids in his class teach him.

Latest movie(s) you've seen?

I saw The Three Muskateers. Great swordplay and hijinks all around. I really enjoyed it. The ending clearly implied a sequel, which I look forward to.
