21. While I'd be reluctant to call any of them 'emo,' (as they really have been through quite a lot and I figure are allowed to angst if they want to), I definitely agree. I love the characters who, despite how hard they've been trodden upon, can still emerge cheerful and hopeful and happy. But that's just personal preference, obviously.

22. Ahhhh, I hate that mentality! I mean, of course people are allowed to ship whoever the hell they want, but how is a canon pairing, or one with a ridiculous amount of subtext, or a popular one, any less legitimate or awesome than an OMGRANDOM pairing? Syaoran/Sakura will never NOT be one true love, Touya/Yukito will never NOT be soulmates, and *BLUSHBLUSH* Gilmore Girls secret ftw, and while I'm either not familiar with or not an active supporter of the other two, what on earth could be wrong with shipping them just because others do, or because others don't, or because they're canon or because they're not? Sure, some people like random pairings. Hell, my OTP has no canon interaction at this point. But there's absolutely nothing wrong with loving a pairing just because it has evidence. And boring? PLEASE TOUYA COULDN'T BE BORING IF IT HIT HIM UPSIDE THE HEAD. AND NEITHER COULD KAKASHI FOR THAT MATTER.

33. I had no idea about any of that. I saw the pictures before I read the text and for a moment I felt my heart sink because I thought it was implying that Takashima-sensei was a plagiarist, which would've totally ruined my enjoyment of Wild Rock from now on. And then I actually read your commentary and got even sadder. I had no idea any of that had happened, and it really depresses me. That someone could ruin another's career, or even escape without punishment, just because their mother holds sway over a section of the market is just horrible. Especially as Takashima-sensei is utterly AWESOME. I haven't read much of the other manga-ka, but I never thought she was anything more than mediocre. ARGJKGHHH this is just upsetting.

I just found out recently actually, hence the secret.

After finding about that, it made me wonder about another wonderful artist (Asato Eiri) who dropped off the radar almost completely, and didn't complete her title works. I mean, with yaoi manga being usually oneshots, you notice sometimes when WIPs suddenly stall and the mangaka disappears...

On the brighter side though, I heard news of Harlem Beat wo Yoake volume 4 being released recently, and something about it being the last volume in the series, so I don't know whether that's a good sign or a bad sign.

Actually, straight from Japan! Harlem Beat wo Yoake 4 did get released recently, and on the cover it says "Finally! The Revival (Return) of Takashima-sensei!" It's not the end yet, and she is being serialized in a shoujo manga monthly magazine (I can't remember if it's Zero Sum, Asuka, or Avarice, though. One of those)

She was only on a long hiatus after what happened. D: I don't blame her, seriously.

I would do anything for The Client to continue.
