Love Love

And here's the 101st thing I love about comics: Love Manga has just made its debut on the Comic Weblogs update list, providing a counterpoint of opinion and commentary to my news and notes! A much-welcomed addition to the 'sphere.

For those who like to stay on top of things, Precocious Curmudgeon gets an advance look at Happy Hustle High, one of Viz's latest shôjo offerings.

I try not to place too much emphasis on anime news, but these two are too important to ignore: Watch out for Hayao Miyazaki's Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind, the transcendent film based on the manga of the same name. Also, ShoPro/Viz's bajillion-dollar merger has paid off as they go down in history as the company that licensed Naruto.

CPM's upcoming release Angel Shop sounds like a Chobits in reverse gone horribly wrong. Intriguing.

Scanlation fans, start your downloads! Kotonoha has a number of new releases. Some one-shots from an anthology called Comic Cue -- "When I woke up, I found I had turned into a fridge and was in an unknown apartment..." Tell me you wouldn't want to read a story that starts out like that. There's also more The Music of Marie and Flower Cookies.
