Was up at the mall today and gave into temptation and bought the first book in a new series put out by Shoujo Beat. It's called "OuranHigh School Host Club" and IT IS HILARIOUS!!!! Think of it as a cross between "wallflower" and "hanakimi". Brilliant. Bloody Brilliant. Must have more. I was actually laughing out loud when I read it. There's one point where this girl who thinks she's this guy's finacee shows up and immediately dismisses the rest of the club. She is a rabid fangirl so decides that they all need new personalities- they need more angst to be appelaing. What follows is pages of teh guys all adhering to thier new personalities. The cute little one has a very evil mean side, whenever the silent one talks he is very profound, the sexy king of the world is lost and doesn't know who he is (spiritually speaking, the whole "Oh, am i not something more?", and the twins are alike but struggling to express their individuality. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! There are things like "Make the rain more melancholy!" "festival of the Phermone King! Pointless flood of flowers!" and "Unnecessary Zoom-In!!"

BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!

Then I was in the mood for some "Wallflower" and went to B&N and bought the first 4 books. Then I'm going to read some Hanakimi.

It's a good day for manga and pretty boys.

yay! i just bought the 4th wallflower yesterday! and it was fabulous, of course. sunako and kyohei have to pretend to be dating to keep the insane aunt at bay... hilariousness results. i swear to gid, that comic is pure and utter fanservice from cover to cover. ie: summer heat wave forcing all pretty boys to walk around half naked. yeah.

i love hayakawa.
