Inuyasha is wonderful, Charlene ^^ Join us puppy-lovers here *grins to Alexa, Garion, and Mary* Try reading a chapter or two... There are plenty of scanlations around the web available for download. #mangascans at IRC DALnet also offers Inuyasha, as well as tons more series. As for the art, it's pretty decent. Rumiko Takahashi is very decent with her artwork, although obviously isn't as great as CLAMP or Arina Tanemura. But her other talents surpass the artwork itself, especially in these particular areas: plot, storyline, characterization, and refreshing sense of humor. That's why I fell in love with Maison Ikkoku. It's probably the greatest series in which Takahashi-sensei had utilized her optimum talents on the above areas.

Aww, you poor dog.... *pats Sesshoumaru* I like it when he's paralyzed like this & thus can't utilize his power... he looks more gentle (although the eyes are still cold). Anyhow, I've read up to the end of chapter 14 of the original Japanese manga and cannot wait for more. I'm so glad Sesshoumaru appears again ^^v I noticed that he looks a bit like Yue: cold eyes, long hair. Although Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru are brothers, they don't really look alike, despite their long hair (forget the face feature, everyone basically has the same face features, just different hairstyle ^^;). Which one would you prefer? I can't choose myself.. I like both of them :3

Luno, I always look different in every photo =P I don't even know why, but lately I began to realize that since people always comment, "You look so much different on each of those pictures! Are you sure all of them are the same person?" o_O;; Like I said below, I looked really weird here.. so that pic doesn't really portray my exact appearance. This one is much closer to the real me. Also, the fact that I and Koannie are Indonesians alone doesn't actually make a strong foundation, because there are so many types of Indonesian. I'm Indonesian Chinese. I'm pretty sure Koannie is, too. But there are various ethnics (and mixed ethnics) throughout Indonesia, and they are all Indonesians (they're not immigrants from other countries. Perhaps their great great great grandparents were). Think of all these countries combined to portray the various appearances of Indonesian people: Malaysia, China, Africa, Arab, Netherland, etc. For instance, I and Kara are totally different, but we're both Indonesians ^^ And the guy in the middle is Indonesian Arabic, another different mixed ethnic, just like myself.

Well, I need to sleep now... yes, I haven't slept all night, unless for the three-hour evening nap yesterday. It's this time of the month again... my period has made me all fresh & not very tired. Fortunately, the pain & cramps this time aren't as bad as last month's, which I'm very much thankful for.
Speaking of yesterday, things were screwed up since the night before, but I don't want to go into details now. Not in the mood to ramble about that. Oyasumi nasai ~~
