Seconding the recommendation for Oresama Teacher pretty much forever (or until everyone in this thread is reading it.) It's so lacking in romance that a lot of folks who like shoujo complain about that.

Bromance, however...

Thanks for the recommendations, I'll check them out. Oresama Teacher looks pretty cool.

Watashitachi no Shiawase na Jikan is pretty good and really really sad.

Sukima Shiki is good too and a neat premise for an anthology.

Tetsugaku Letra only has a couple of chapter translated but I'm really liking it.

Resurrecting this to point out that Maigo just dropped the entire first volume of Tetsugaku Letra out of nowhere. Probably be up on readers at some point, but the direct link is here.

Aoi Hana is ending in July, apparently: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/new...-to-end-in-july. and it got confusing with J-manga going out of business but apparently Fumi and Akira are broken up as of chapter 50?

hopefully the ending is worthwhile and hopefully this means she can actually try to get to the ending of Hourou Musuko too (I'm so ready for both of these things to end).

I wonder if the group that was scanlating it before will pick it up again for the last bit.

According to Lililicious' site, no; apparently even if it wasn't going to be licensed again (they don't seem to know) it is apparently being scanlated by someone else... though all of the usual yuri scanlation places I've checked haven't mentioned it.

Huh, interesting. While I haven't read the last few chapters, spoilers made them sound more like mid-story drama than anything too close to an ending. It will be interesting to see where Shimura takes the story over the last couple of chapters, but I can't help but worry it'll be rushed - feels like there wouldn't be enough time toget them back together in a realistic or at least engaging manner. And if they don't get together, it still feels a bit fast - given that their friendship and relationship have been the focus of the entire story, I feel like the kind of huge changes it has been through during the past dozen or so chapters would need more than a couple of chapters to 'sort out' as it were, both from their characters' POV and structurally, story-wise. Oh well, guess we'll see how it goes.

Aoi Hana ending in two issues is giving me such a weird mix of emotions that I'm having trouble even trying to articulate any of them, so I think I'll leave it at that for now.

This is much more straightforward though:
I love the anime version of Paradise Kiss to bits, it's charming, funny, witty, romantic, believable, relatable and is one of my all-around favorites.

But I have a confession: I hadn't read the original manga, it was on my "to read" list since finishing up the series a while back, but I kept putting it off and figured that since I knew the gist of the story I could hold off on reading it.

After finally picking up all three volumes I can safely say that my opinions of the anime haven't changed. But, holy poo poo god drat the manga is so fantastically good that I almost can't believe it! Yazawa's art is incredible, the pacing is perfect and I'm absolutely in love with all of the fourth wall breaking jokes that are spread throughout it.


So, don't be a dumbass like me, read Paradise Kiss. Like right now.

It's always important to remember that 99% of the time the manga is better than the anime.

New Taiyou no Ie. http://kissmanga.com/Manga/Taiyou-n...treet?id=163836 So many great faces and eyes this chapter.

The vintage manga tumblr has had a bunch of cool Moto Hagio pics up lately.

Well that was a really cute chapter, thinking about the future and holy crap did Kazehaya get slapped by his dad? and he's yelling at Sawako!? That's not the sort of thing I expected to have happen at the end of a KnT chapter.

Isn't it obvious? His dad wants him to go to college.

It always amazed me how much she manages to fit into each chapter, even given that they're fairly long monthly chapters.
