Ah. Thanks for the info!L_kira wrote: Hmm...yung fight scene/fanservice is overgeneralizing the genre a bit. But I don't deny it. Dragonball Z set the parameter for the fight scenes. No idea about the fanservice as to who set the tone though. In this case however, as hecaitomix correctly pointed out, it is a seinen manga. It tackles around the more mature facets of life such as marriage, livelihood, maturity, society and the like in a male's viewpoint, or at least, how those aspects affects a man. The exact same ideas cane be seen in its female counterpart, Josei.
(Shounen = boys-teen male; Seinen = adult male. Shoujo = girls-teen female; Josei = adult female.)
I haven't read the manga as whole since I'm not that into the drawing anymore being accustomed to the current ones (yeah yeah I know I didn't give the classic much justification, sorry) such as Umi No Misaki. I did try Yume no Aetara though.
I'm aware of the terms although I don't really pay attention to them. As long as the series looks interesting I'll give it a go naman.
p.s. I finished ai kora and the drawing-style is a bit different. Sort of too... rounded? And i agree, the ending was so-so.
But I laughed a lot while reading it so that's fine.

^Oh..ako kasi ayoko talaga ng shojo/josei eh. No idea why. Well, exception is yung force-feed na anime na shojo theme sa TV (i.e. Magic Knight Rayearth and Cardcaptor Sakura). Mahilig ba kayo sa mga mystery/psychological genre? Try nyo Liar Game and Kurosagi. Astig pareho.

Ah.
I guess understandable naman na some people don't really like shoujo.
By Kurosagi do you mean Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service? I'll check it out, pati yung Liar Game though I think I'll wait until both series are done. I don't really like waiting for new chapters. Bitin kasi e.

Uhm..di yung Corpse Delivery Service. Ngayon ko lang narinig yun ah. Yung Kurosagi na sinasabi ko, yung protagonist nya, Con-Man na nang-cCon ng mga kapwa Con-Man. Yun lang ang target ng protagonist.
Though, I agree na bitin nga. Di pa nga tapos Liar Game. It's been a year since I've read the manga and hanggang ngayon on-going pa din. Padamihin nga muna.
Try mo rin Ai Yori Aoshi (completed). Same author ng Umi No Misaki. Maganda storyline nila pareho. Sinabay ko yun sa Midori no Hibi eh.

^Haha yep. May fanservice din kasi sa Midori No Hibi kaya akala ko ayos lang sayo basta maganda yung storyline. Kung gusto mo ng seryoso talaga, try mo yung mga Seinen titles. Sa Mangafox maganda search system nila, out of all those that I know of.

Natapos ko naman yung Ai Yori Aoshi, mas ok yung manga ending compared to the anime.
Sige. I'll try that, usually kasi I dl manga instead of reading online so hindi ko masyadong nagagamit yung Mangafox.

Medyo matagal kung hihintayin mo matapos yung Sket Dance, hehe. Pero ang kagandahan naman sa manga na ito ay hindi mo naman siya kailangan subaybayan, like Naruto na continuous ang flow ng kwento. Self-contained ang story bawat chapter.

TWGOK? Me rin. Hahaha. Sabay ko binasa to nun sa Kimi no Iru Machi tsaka GE-Good Ending eh. Nung una, impression ko is Lelouch in a harem world. Then sa gitna, harem na walang sense. Pero yung recent chapters..it's starting to pick up.
