Saiyuki Reload Vol 9

Heh. I think I read this too soon after watching Gunlock, because all I could think through most of it was “This is so much better than what the anime came up with!”

coffeeandink  has a collection of links and some comments regarding gender representation in published SFF authors.  I would add comments of my own, but then I would feel compelled to read more of the comments in the posts she links to, which would require me to read more comments implying that women are destroying genre fiction and bringing about its downfall and such.  And really, I could do that, or I could read Marjorie M. Liu and look over a manga post while food cooks, and then watch Avatar while I eat.   Which sounds more fun to you?

Avatar: The Last Airbender: Season 3, episodes 10-11

Comments include mild spoiler for Boiling Rock.

High School Debut Vol 7

Am I the only one who can’t stop staring at this cover? For those who aren’t sure what cover this is, it features Asami dressed as a she-devil and apparently about to drag Haruna-who is dressed as a catgirl-off to be molested. In the background, Fumi is freaking out and wearing a skull ring, and Yoh is looking disnterested in what may or may not be a pimp outfit. I DO NOT KNOW!!!
