Thank you to Airah for posting about this manga. I can't wait for the second chapter already. If you haven't read Bakuman, you really should. It's by the same creators of Death Note! It's kinda hard to break out from the dark mold of Death Note so I'm happy that they're striving for comedy this time.

Akito Takagi and Moritaka Mashiro are the two main characters in what seems to be a wacky series, or at least heading in that direction. Takagi's the smart kid while Mashiro's the dude with the awesome hand for drawing stuff. And they're only 14 years old wtfbbqlol! The expressions are just so dumb and Mashiro is so fucking cute it just kills me, especially when dealing with anything that has something to do with Azuki (the chick that he likes). And is it just me, or is Obata trying out a new drawing style? Especially the eyes. They're so fucking SHINY.

They keep on making shoutouts to Death Note, though. Hilarious.

I like Takagi the best! He's quickly becoming a favorite character of mine. XD He's the blond dude. Smart but a totally whacked out otaku with a penchant for figuring out that the 'like' between Mashiro and Azuki. Hmm, am I sensing a Near/Mello/L type of genius/perception mixed in with a bit of Matsuda's personality?

Since Airah already uploaded the front page coloured cover thing, here's a scene from one of the pages.



THE EXPRESSIONS, THEY KILL ME. LAWL.

Be warned, though, the first few pages were really awkward but it definitely picks up as you go along. This is page 54. There's about 58 pages for the debut. And funnily enough, the chick heroine girl doesn't irritate me.

I'm sniffing for something else, though. Further into their awkward 'friendship'...

Mashiro + Takagi = New OTP?

I mean, come on. Takagi can't keep himself from touching Mashiro's hand. XD ;A; I CANNOT WAAAAIT.

People seem to like this series already too. I mean, I found fanart on DevArt just now. Hmm.

Will be waiting for next week. 8D

/END OF MANGA NEWS

Yes, I'm horribly sick. I went to the clinic yesterday. The doctor is awesome. I might have sinus but she couldn't tell at the time since the inside of my nose was all swollen and stuff. She took my temperature and it was 39.3 degrees Celsius (my temperature was higher before I went into the air-con place). So my tonsils were like, having pus on them. Ew wtf.

I wanted to go to school today for my History and Biology assessments. Unfortunately I couldn't even get up from the bed so my mom was just like 'I don't think you need to go to school today' and so I just nodded and slept.

I'm on Vitamin C medication along with the usual Paracetamol; Doxycycline as my antibiotics, Antihistamine for my flu. And if you talk to me on the phone before I take my medication, I sound absolutely horrible. 8D

Btw, I have MC for today and tomorrow, so I don't know if I'll be coming on Friday.

Well, see you guys when I see you.
