Don’t be Suckered

  • “Akagami no Shiraiyukihime” by Akizuki Sorata — too long, thoroughly scanlated, and the current scanlator doesn’t stop when series are licensed.

  • I really hope Library Wars’s sequel is licensed. I freaking love it and the MOVIES are seriously one of the best adaptations I’ve ever seen.

    I’m so done with Vampire Knight.

    I’d love to see a reprint of Hana Yori Dango-though it never will happen because stupid digital 😛

    Hedgehog, Hatsu*Haru, Sabaku Harem, and Sumika Sumire are what I hope get licensed.
