Shoujo manga is like crack

[alectoperdita]

Shoujo sparkles + screentones = teh win

Bobo's eyes also = teh win

Pika pika Ren-san = o.O omg kinda scary

Blushing Ren-san = OMG!!!  *squee* <3 <3 <3

That's right, Ren-san.  You're falling head over heels in love with Kyoko.  Thus by the unwritten law of shoujo manga, this is where her previous love interest (that bastard Shou...) actually starts to become interested in her and becomes your rival in love as well as in the idol business.  xDD

The following nonsense post was brought to you by Nakamura Yoshiko's Skip Beat after reading 6 volumes straight over the last 3 days.  Go read! (Well...if you can read Chinese...and don't mind slow ass servers)  You could always pre-order the English release on Amazon too .  Don't know what the quality is going to be on this one...  VIZ is releasing it...

OMG!  Volume 12 just came out on yesasia.com!  Must buy!  *is going to end up feeling stupid with physically having just volume 12*

*looks at 18 volumes of Tokyo Crazy Paradise on her shelf and grins*
Nakamura Yoshiki-sensei's manga is too bloody addictive ^_~ Crack, angst and her own kind of romance...
Ren-san is LOVE, absolutely! His all-too-cheerful smiles that scare Kyoko to death are pretty intimidating adorable XD
btw She draws one of the most hilarious chibis in manga, don't you think?

TCP rules! I was a little disappointed with the way she decided to take the plot toward the end, but it's still awesome crack. I want more of Asago and her burly bear of a mate! *is obviously into eccentric couples*

Ren-san is up there on the best bishies list. Just so impossibly pretty. >.<

Nakamura-sensei's art has definitely taken a more conventional shoujo bent with Skip Beat. I adore her sense of humor so much. It just teeters there on the edge of twisted. I adore her chibis!

*laughs* Her cop boyfriend was something! XD Exactly what she needed if you ask me ahaha ^_~ And I miss Tsukasa and her style of kicking ass ver much! >_<

Ren-san is up there on the best bishies list.
Oh yeah *_* And Kyoko is very high up on crack list XD What a combination ^_~

When Kyoko and Tsukasa both get really into that intense mode, omg sexy~ ! I think Nakamura-sensei has a thing about dressing up her female leads in different disguises/costumes. Not that I'm complaining.

I think she just loves to make her male leads to stare at female leads in wonder XD Tsukasa as sexy killer-lady (can't forget Ryuuji's reaction to that XD), Kyoko as omfg killer-angel... very funny! ^_~
