Apr. 13th, 2008 04:29 pmI have finished my Chobits re-read and wow, I love the series. It's so nice to remember what happens in it again XD
HOWEVER, I must say I could have done with Zima and Gita and their whole storyline. I think it just detracted from what was going on with Hideki and Chi and yeah...they were really superfluous.
But I still love it.
There are a few more series I have that I'd like to re-read. I've been thinking of re-reading xxxHolic up to vol 11. And also I want to re-read Ceres, now that I finally have vol 1 & 2 back (even if poor 1 got attacked by Sansa, silly puppy). But those are both significantly longer than Chobits, so it might take awhile.
Plus I have new manga coming from Chapters that hopefully will get here tomorrow (it was in Mississauga on Friday...yay for being near where Chapters orders come from!). It includes Tsubasa vol 5 (I've decided to continue with that series at least until 6, because Kate says there is a more continuous storyline and so basically this arc will be the make or break point for me, because I'm still not loving the series), Vampire Knight vol 1 (which I've at least mostly read, but would like to re-read in celebration of the anime), Sugar Sugar Rune vol 3, and Gunslinger Girl vol 6, and Welcome to the NHK! vol 6 (which means I will be caught up with the English release for those last two). Oh, and Jes was sending me ES vol...whatever that latest one is, which means I'll be caught up with it too.
I like being caught up with the English release, because it makes me feel like I'm not missing anything and also it means that I can't go out and buy a bazillion books from one series all at once. Currently I have all the released volumes for xxxHolic, Ouran Host Club, Genbu Kaiden, and Sand Chronicles.
Of course, I also have a ton of series that I am significantly behind with. It's actually fun though, strategically planning what to buy next. God help me though if I do fall for Tsubasa now, since last I checked there were 16 volumes released and I'm only at 5.
