Prunus Girl! I'm not really into guyxguy, (trapxguy) but amazingly it managed to burrow it,s way into my heart, and I can see it being in my top 10 for a long time. 😃

The series I finished some time ago, Kare no Aijou no Hakari by TOUDA Yoshimi, surprised me quite a bit. Considering its length and genre, I did not expect the earnestness which it treated the subject of homosexuality with. Anyway, I'm glad I gave it a try.

I didn't play the game, but I love stories like this. Made me shiver at the end, it was good!

Shiki no Zenjitsu. I love its lyrical and contemplative approach to daily life.

I finished Black Lagoon in about a day since I have absolutely nothing to do. It's good! It's refreshingly humble and funny. I really liked that the minor characters show complexity and spunk, especially Shenhua with her threats and Balalaika, who's vicious(ly awesome). Revy is my favorite but the mangaka really needs to stop being such a tease about her past.
Downside is that the plot just doesn't move, period. Oh, minor characters get their resolutions, but never the main characters. A tease here and a tease there may seem like progress, but it's getting less and less frequent and what little of it comes out of nowhere and goes nowhere. Benny and Dutch are members of the main crew and we hardly know anything about them, even their personality.
The progress and resolution of the latest finished arc are especially unsatisfactory. Balalaika says some completely contextless and meaningless things which look important but have no actual effect on anything.
And Rock is kinda Gary Stu-ish in that his words somehow have more of an effect than guns and his naive wishes almost always come true, while in terms of work he prances around talking but does absolutely nothing. Most boring person getting the focus is possibly the biggest injustice in the manga.
Elitism? If I am not elite, then who is?

It's gonna be more of the same thing, so I don't expect to read till the end.
