魔帝

lol, a really cute extract ^_^

lol, i'm currently reading 魔帝

so i shall give a review for it to promote it!

lol, instead of japanese manga,

this is a KOREAN manga!

interesting isn't it?

yupps, Korea also hav nice manga (:

here's a link for those interested in reading

http://www.vodm.com/intro/8563.shtml#online

lol, u can forget abt reading bk16 and 17

cos it's all in korean!

SUMMARY

魔帝 was a deathgod

who once held formidable power

which he brought to the underworld even after he die

However, he was too powerful and held too much of a threat

therefore, the hade king sealed his power

and he had to do the hade king's bidding

*the hade king was a slave driver btw, poor魔帝!*

while his power was sealed, he appeared as a 15/16 yr old boy only.

One day, 6 魔人 escaped from the underworld

to the human world.

Thus begin 魔帝's quest to the human world to destroy the bodies in which these 魔人 occupied.

REFLECTIONS

lol, as u've guessed

the storyline is pretty typical

what makes this manga stand out from others *aside from e overabandance of muscles*

is probably the exciting way in which the author depicted each scene!

This series is an overload of fights and more fights

but u can rest assured that unlike bleach and naruto,

half of the fights are pretty fast

prob cos 魔帝 is so powerful (:

of cos, what we love so much abt bleach and naruto fights are not lost in 魔帝

e other half of the fights are pretty hardcore n really exciting (:

AND,

what is a manga without humour?

this series has the right amount of humour injected at the right parts

魔帝 himself is a walking joker!

He is jus such a dynamic character!

->violent *all the time*

->powerful *all the time*

->sadistic

->sympathic *but nvr doing much to help*

->sensitive

->righteous

To add to the depth,

appropriate dark parts are introduced

魔帝 and his friends' dark past

and the enemies seemed to have a hidden agenda which have yet been revealed at bk 17

overall,

a fast pace series which will have u picking up bk after bk (:

*ps: dont b deterred by the overabundance of muscles,

it's still gt gd illustrations

which is highly expressive and the facial features are actually quite pretty!

not to mention the cute chibi cartoons (:*

Gintama Review

hiya~

pardon mi for my overload of jrock pics, icons... can't blame mi for being an overly obsessed fangirl! XD

alrite.. i decided that outta my boredom i would provide u all some sort of entertainment... ta-da! weekly anime review!! ^_^ (i was extremely tempted to give u my daily jrock review!!=X)

GINTAMA

End of Edo period, aliens called "Amanto" began to invade the Earth, and the war between the Earth and Amanto broke out. During the war, many samurai lost their lives. However, the Earth was no match for the overwhelming weapons of Amand, and they surrendered to Amando...blah blah blah...

The story takes place around a samuri and their buddies who live in this hard time for samurai.

Gintoki, the main 'hero', is simply a lazy bum who tries to get his way out everytime during rent collection day -_-'', seemingly the MOST unmotivated protagonist in an anime ever! n this is just the start of the many puns n parodies in it, making it wonderfully hilarious n entertaining~~

Almost every epi will make u laugh, well.. it did for mi! XD

some of the parodies r like the Shinsengumi (those who watched Peacemaker shld know *winks*) where they made Sougo (aka. Souji) n Hijitaka apparent enemies. it is ridiculous sometimes how these characters can act such silly deeds, but this is the fun of life isn't it? being silly n having fun, all the time moving on... n in the midst of all the humor, there is always a touching story behind which reflects our mistakes n enlighten us on our self-centered ways.

Looking for some laughs n yet some meaning in animes?? Give 'Gintama' a try!

Hachi) happened to sit beside 20 year old Nana Osaki, who was traveling to Tokyo to fulfill her dreams of becoming a musician. The vocalist for her punk band "Blast", Nana’s goal is the debut for "Blast" in Tokyo where her ex-boyfriend, Ren, is the guitarist for the popular band "Trapnest". Sharing the same name and age, both girls quickly form a bond of friendship.
