I'm the horse, but my mom is the tiger, so it's her year.

If the zodiacs are in the right order, you can kind of see the age group that reads manga the most in the results...sorta :> there's a mountain sloping effect! Is this complete nonsense? (dogs now~ 15yo? dragons 21~ ish)

I was thinking about the results reflecting the age groups, too. Then I thought about it and realized, ' I'm a Rabbit (22 yrs old) and there's quite a few others that are the same age.... Wait a minute, they could very well be mostly 10-yr-olds Rabbits too.'

Did you know that in Vietnam, we celebrate the Year of the Cat instead of the Year of the Rabbit?

I thought there would be more roosters but it looks like the dragons dominate BU-Manga ^_^

Yup.
Kind of remind me of Fruits Basket with Kyo (the cat) being left out.
But in our zodiac, the cat isn't left out.. Funny.

I was debating to have an option like "I wish the cat made it" or something, but decided not to. Most people know the holiday as "Chinese", so I used the Chinese zodiac (even if it's technically an Asian holiday)

I can't help chuckle whenever I think about my parents' chinese zodiac. Dad's a rat while Mom's a snake. Snake eat rats. Lol.

Anyway, a Dragon just like my grandpa.
