The second episode further shows how sad life can be when you’re not privileged. You’re on a large luxury ship that travels to every planet. A certain area of the ship exploded, causing the memories of hundreds of thousands of people to leak out into space. You’d think that would be the most protected area of the ship. Neiro, the female lead plays a big role starting in this episode. She’s from an organization against all the memory manipulation. It’s surely doesn’t have support from the government. Kaiba is also a bit perverted, a slight nudity scene, sexual undertones, and a perverted guard. Go watch.

My first real Photoshop attempt is coloring of manga. A bit of a simple style, but hopefully later on textures and such can be added. For now there’s these. They’re from the manga Tegami Bachi (Letter Bee). A shounen fantasy series with characters who’s duty is to deliver mail to people in a world of eternal dusk.

If you think buying manga is expensive, try getting into games or movies. Those must have staples from the past, limited releases, and the new titles aren’t cheap. If you really want to be a fan and not just a reader, buy it. At least some of it. Royalties do exist in manga, so buying licesned manga in your country does support the mangaka and small studio that created the manga. Japan isn’t perfect and most comic companies are in big cities. Big cities means high rent and cost of living with Japan’s economy as it is. Not that downloading is wrong, since it some countries don’t have much in a way of a manga industry unless you find a site that delivers where you live. You’re a fan, of course you want to experience stuff you like. But wouldn’t it show that you’re a fan if you actually have a series?

There are discounted online stores and buying what little manga in your area does bring more manga to be picked up by publishers. You can even learn the language. Just look at a lot of shounen and shoujo, the hiragana is right next to the kanji. Worth taking classes if it means manga that you can buy for less. Not like you’re going to get tired of the whole weaboo, anime, and manga world.

Stop asking y cnt i dl dis?

It must be hard to be Death the Kid with his need for proper balence, everything being symmetrical, and perfection. Can’t appreciate that he has two females as weapons. That’s the well know idea around most humor with him. Too bad the humor isn’t funny, but it comes with being an adaptation of the manga. Must also be difficult to animate hands holding pistols that are upside down. There isn’t much happening in this series since it’s still in intro mode, but do take a minute to pause right at the part when the school’s big shot Shinigami comments on Death the Kids cute hair. Think about why he said that. If you read the manga, you know the answer perhaps? Episode 3 of Soul Eater has Death the Kid along with Patty and Liz trying to gather enough souls in one mission. Do get to see a weapon using a weapon as a necromancer witch tries to resurect a pharaoh.


Not so related question. Syd Barrett is a Soul Eater character, meaning someone is a Pink Floyd music fan?

A shounen story of a boy named Kiri Luchile and a female Sister Elraine are forced to hold hands because of a deadly disease. The disease is called Troi and spreads by touching others, however Kiri for some reason is not only immune, but also able to cure (at least help cure) it as long as you’re touching him. Sister Elraine is special too, some few females have a resistance to the plague and she does. With that power she can touch sick people and absorb the poison that quickly grows in a person’s body. One flaw though, if you are infected and the disease cannot spread through contact with clothes, why not cover youself up so you’re hard to touch? There isn’t very much traditional shounen action, but the two main characters wouldn’t have discovered each over if Sister Elraine didn’t nearly die. Even though this manga isn’t trilling, the premise of the series gives it moments of glory.

Double Arts could lead to be something much more. They could find more people like Kiri, a way to give his immunity to others, or lead to him sacrificing himself to cure the plague altogether. Chapter one has the two finding each other and explains much of the basics. No fan sevice and Sister Elraine doesn’t appear to be a Rei clone. She was willing to die because Kiri would be the target of all sorts of shady and greedy foes. If you’re looking for a great styled ‘face fault’ filled fantasy series, this’ll fit that space.
