GRAVITATION.
I like this series. I've read fan translations & think Tokyopo did a grat translation job. While I didlike all the American pop culture reference they added for replacement, at least the funnier-than-original text makes up for it.
The anime was okey, but I like the manga better. I loved the music & bought one of the soundtracks.
Maki Murakami left hte book unfinished at tankouban 12. Like Mamiya Oki, she'll probably get around to it latter & not abandon it like Aoike Yasuko did with Ibu no Musukotachi (It was my most favorite;_;) But I degress....
Lots of fans know all about Crocodile Ave.'s Remix Gravitation series. What they are is OFFICIAL because Murakami sensei made them. It's not unusual for a mangaka to make doujinshi on their own series; Mamiya Oki & Minami Ozaki are notorious for it (if you didn't know, Ozaki is 'still' writing Bronze) The Remix series contains all the stuff she had in the back of her mind & all the stuff her publishers woulnt let her get away with. (maybe she should have chosen Biblos instead of Gentosha)It's ammusing how much she loves to slash brothers^.^ A pitty there weren't any Ryuichi-Shuichi pairings-.- & K goes after Hiro twice :p K looks like a blonde version of Koinosuke from Jubei-chan to me.
I've read hundreds of BL mangas (& collect 70's shounenai) & if not for the humor I'd probably just pass this off as another drama beause of the circumstances of the relationship. I don't know how it's going to end when Murakami decided to fishish, but I hope Hiro gets Shuichi Touma gets Yuki.
I used to think that Yuki was very plain looking & needed to grow some hair, but by book 6 I noticed a dramatic imprvement in the art (humerous as Murakami claims to hate drawing) Frankly by 6, EVERYONE looks better, even Sakano looks kind of cute. Hiro & K are still the prettiest, but Yuki has lovely eyes & Shuichi is a thousan times cuter with his new hair style.
Overall, the show is hillarious & you end up feeling extremely embarrased by everyhting that goes on. lol^o^
