Orange

Hello everyone! Today I want to share this manga to you, it's called "Orange". I think this manga is amazing, it's so exciting at the climax and of course this manga will make you cry. This manga is so awesome that the live action released first before the anime. The anime is still on going. I write this because I am surprise that the anime is released and I am watching it now. I will tell you the anime later when I finished it and for the live action too, but first let me tell you about this manga.

Title: Orange
Mangaka: Takano Ichigo
Year: 2012
Chapter: 22 completed
Genre: Shoujou, Romance, Tragedy, Slice of life

Takamiya Naho, a 16 years old high school student, on the spring day of her first day in the 2nd year high school, received a letter from her 10 years future-self. The letters told her there will be a transfer student name Naruse Kakeru and it told her other incident that occur on that day so that she will believe what the letter said and act according to the letter. It turns up that the letter said was right, but she still hesitant to act according to the letter. So she didn't do all of the instruction of the letter. This will be a problem later, because the reason that this letter is made is to prevent the death of Naruse Kakeru. The story goes on the circle of 6 best friends consist of Takamiya Naho, Naruse Kakeru, Suwa Hiroto, Kayano Takako, Murasaka Azusa, Hagita Saku.

I love the story and the art. FYI, the place of this manga takes are real, that it becomes so real to me :"). I love the art especially the cover that using watercolor paint. Every chapter is unpredictable, I love it, this kind of manga. The story between the present and the future is so exiting and I remember how sad this manga that it can make me cry. I really recommended this manga, there are so many lesson of life that we can take. The romance too, they are so twisting.

I will write again when I finished the anime and live action 'kay? Don't miss it!

Spirit Fingers

Hi everyone! How are you doing today? I am so happy today, because i found an interesting webtoon today! fufu.. Anyway before it's getting too long, I'll write this fast. Oh yeah, I want you to know first that I read this webtoon (manhwa) on a manga website, and I got too excited for the next chapter then I read it on the official website (naver). I know that I don't understand korean but I know how the story goes from the picture. So I am sorry if there are any mistake on my writing, I just want to share this webtoon.


Title: Spirit Fingers!
 Author: Han Gyeong Chal
Year: 2015
Chapter: On Going
Genre: Romance, Comedy, Slice of life

An ordinary, plain high school girl named Song Woo Yeon see a bunch of people on the street that looks like having fun drawing. She stare on a boy (Goo Sunho) on that circle, but when she stare somehow their eyes met and she turn back. However, surprisingly that boy ask him to becomes their model. After that he ask her to join their circle, on precisely it's a drawing club called "Spirit Fingers". From then on, she join the club to know more about the boy. On her way for the first meeting club, she went to the toilet and got bothered by some girls on the toilet. Then after got humiliated (weird make up) she met a man outside the toilet. Unexpectedly, that man also a part of the club. What will happen then? Who is that man? You can read it on the webtoon. :)

This is my opinion, the first time I read this webtoon was because of the art. I love the art so much, if you like fashion, pop-surreal art (I don't even know if this kind of art is exist, haha sorry if I am wrong, haha), then I think you should read it. The style more like paradise kiss, but in manwha way. Honestly, when I think of the main character, I think it's like my oldself so I keep reading it, but the main reason I keep reading it because of the art  of course, haha. Well the story is interesting too but it's kind of easy predicted (?). Well, I'll say that the first part is unpredicted but the rest is kind of (sorry author, but I still like how the story goes on). Anyway, I really recommended this webtoon.

Wotaku ni Koi wo Muzukashii

Hello! Today I want to write about a manga that I recently read and I really love it! The title is "Wotaku ni Koi wo Muzukashii" or in english "It's difficult to love an otaku" / "Love is difficult for an otaku". When the first time I saw the title I quickly click it and read it. As I expected this manga is full of thing that related to an otaku and of course it's hillarious. Here goes the explaination!


Title: Wotaku ni Koi wo Muzukashii
Mangaka: Fujita
Year: 2014
Chapter: On going
Genre: Comedy, Josei, Romance, Slice of Life

Momose Narumi and Nifuji Hirotaka met for the first time after a long time at work. Narumi and Hirotaka is a childhood and middle school friend. The two of them is an otaku, Narumi is a fujoshi (a person who likes yaoi etc) and Hirotaka is a gamer otaku. After a long time not seeing each other but the two of them is still the same, still an otaku who likes to play games and read manga. So, they become an otaku buddies, who goes on drinking after work and play games. Even so, Hirotaka seems like to have a feeling for Narumi and often say it indirectly. It just that he's expressionless. 

Well, although  it's only seven chapter now, but the story is so excited! Oh yeah, I forgot to mention there's another couple too, it's their office colleagues. It's Koyanagi Hanako (Narumi's friend) and Kabakura Tarou (Hirotaka's friend). They often join Narumi and Hirotaka when they are drinking and it looks like a double date. In this manga there are many phrases and humors that only otaku know, but don't worry because the phrase is explained at the end of the chapter, so it's not hard to follow. The art is so cute too. The layout often imitates a game layout so there're many pixelated or emoji drawing.  I'd like to say for an otaku this manga is a must. Alright, do you want to know more? Just read it and you'll laugh many times, haha. Hope you'll like it! :D

Hana to Akuma

Okay this manga is one of the saddest manga, I think. This is the first manga that can made me cried at the end of the story. Well, I am the type that hardly to cry even at an anime that everyone tell it can makes you cry like Clannad or Ano hana (No offense, sorry, I think Clannad and Anohana is a great anime too, it just that I didn't cry). Although I can't promise you that this manga would makes you cry, I just want to share my thought.


Title: Hana to Akuma
Mangaka: Hisamu Oto
Chapter: (2007-2011) Completed
Genre: Shoujo, Comedy, Romance, 
Drama, Tragedy, Fantasy

Vivi a demon that can live for a thousand year, decide to leave the demon world and go to human world. One day he find an abandon baby in front of his house. He decide to take the baby and rise it. He named the baby Hana. Time flies until Hana age 10 years old. Like any other kid, she begins to take interest to the outside of the house (She always inside the house on this 10 years!). Well to put it simply, the story goes on Hana learns about many thing, such as friends, school, and of course love.

Well, I don't want to tell a spoiler here, but to me the ending was unexpected. The ending was none like any other manga I have ever read. It's a happy-sad ending, I think the author was genius. How can he makes the reader laugh at the beginning of the chapter and cry at the end. I love the setting and the drawing. I recommend this manga to everyone who wants to try to read a shoujo fantasy manga.  

Ore Monogatari!!

Hello everyone! This is me again, after a long time finally I've got the mood to write again. Let's not wasting time. It's one of my favorite anime, "Ore Monogatari!!" or in english "It's My Story!!". I'll write about the anime and not the manga because I can't find the manga that have chapter after the chapter on the anime. But!! I will give you a little info about the manga too. Here it is!
Title: Ore Monogatari!!
Written by: Kazune Kawahara
Illustrated by: Aruko
Year: 2011(Manga), 2015(Anime)
Chapter: On going
Genre: Comedy, Romance, 
Shoujo, Slice of life

The story is about a highschool boy name Gouda Takeo. He is super big, tall and has a pure heart. He has a best friend named Sunakawa Makoto and he is so handsome, everyone like him. Every time Takeo likes a girl, the girl always like Sunakawa, it's ironic right? One day, he met Yamato Rinko when she was about to be groped by a man in a bus and Takeo helped her. From that time, he becomes friend with Yamato and he begins to have a feeling to her. But he think that Yamato also becomes friend with him because of Sunakawa. So he is always leave the two of them, even though actually she likes Takeo. 

Well this anime is so hillarious, it always make me laugh to watch Takeo expression and how pure he is. I also like the bromance between Takeo and Sunakawa. I hope Sunakawa find his partner soon. I want to know more story after the anime ends but as I said before I don't find any source. Anyway, I really recommend this anime. FYI this anime also getting a live action movie. This proves how great this anime. You better watch it!
