101. It's a sign from the gods that you must write a crossover!!!11111

103. This amuses me greatly

105. I'd read it!

142. I don't want to read stuff that's originally in English. It's not manga, it's manga style comics. If I want to read comics, I'll read something like The Sandman. Tokyopop should sell their USA manga under a separate title, in my opinion. Luckily, my local manga provider doesn't keep originally English manga on their lists, so avoiding it is easy. Return to Labyrinth is the one exception I'll read (because I'm obsessed with the film) and I don't like the comics style art in it at all. I don't mind well-drawn Korean stuff, although it annoys me that I can't read the sound effects. Anyway, part of the reason for this is that I'm studying Japanese, so I want the chance to read the original version in Japanese one day. I've also studied Japanese culture, history and such, and that's why am interested in how they are portrayed in manga and anime - USA manga obviously rides the failboat when it comes to portraying them like a native would. When I like a series I often also want doujinshi and character goods for it, and I'm more likely to find them if the series is originally in Japanese. I haven't seen any of that stuff even for my fave Korean series.

143. If your girlfriend has any sense, she'll agree with you and find the whole thing hot. ;)
