You know, I really do usually try to withhold final judgement on something until I've actually read/watched it. But there are times I feel it is completely valid to be 100% judgmental about something with no intentions of ever checking it out.
Meanwhile, I watched the liveaction Taiwanese adaptation of Hayate the Combat Butler while I was recovering from the stomach flu. It's been a few years since I read any of the manga, but it was basically like how I remember the manga being, only with the characters being a bit older and having more romance (unless there was more romance later in the manga). So it was absolutely hilarious and oddly endearing. Though, I don't know what wardrobe was thinking with Xiao Shi and Chu Ju's hair. Actually, Xiao Shi's actual hairstyle is a perfectly decent hairstyle in and of itself, it's just a bad hairstyle for Park Shin Hye (as highlighted by the flashbacks where she played Xiao Shi's mother).

I recommend checking out some of the Perez and Jiminez era Wonder Woman comics, as well as Hiketeia. And while Gail Simone has become rather less loved in my circles in recent years, a lot of her earlier stuff is really good.
