A Wonderful Surprise!

[chomiji]

Kya ha ha! Guess what I just found at Borders, more than a week earlier than I'd been led to believe!

Samurai Deeper Kyo vol. 23 !!!

I'm going to wait a bit to blog it properly because the Tokyopop site gives the release date as July 10 and Amazon says they won't have it until July 3 (WTF? Why is the "official release date" after Amazon's sales date?) so I bet a lot of stores don't have it yet, and I want to wait until more people have had a chance to read it.

Ihhh!
*counting days*
10 days for english, 20 days for danish...
Even if it's only 10 days of difference, it's very tempting to just go ahead and buy the english one... I know Saxo can have it in a couple of days from now... and the I could have one of my amusing "comparing-editions"-moments...
*off to edit homepage as a distraction*

>tease, tease<

There's a scene with Yukimura, and a couple of really great Hotaru scenes (one with Yuan!)... !

Not to mention much Akari goodness and Shiseiten wonderfulness ... .

;-)

Sorry, I shouldn't tempt such a hard-working person!

*points*
You are evil! ...at least for the next five minutes, or untill I get over my urge to just go on and order... or... or... ihh, you're forgiven... for now... *hugs*

Bah, I'll just keep looking at my eh... french, I think, can't remember, scans! HA!

And no, you shouldn't tempt me, it's not fair... I'm awfully weak when it comes to SDK, but I was a good girl this time, and I only ordered FAKE...

You owe cookie for this...

Hmmm ... would I be allowed to send cookies to Denmark? Wouldn't health regulations forbid it?

I already promised telophase some cookies if she drew a Gojyo (from Saiyuki) shower scene (she was teasing us with it - she draws very good cartoons), so I guess I could just split the batch up, if it was legal ... . Do you like chocolate?

[ipperne.livejournal.com]

You might have a point there... besides, cookies on a 7 days mailride probably won't look much like cookies when they arrive. I just like cookies very much ^^ maybe it's because I can't bake...

The idea of a shower scene with this... Gojyo would probably make more sense to me if I knew who he was. And now I'm sitting here, thinking about why exactly I've never started reading it, because I think you actually recommended me to do so once. Maybe I should try again, without getting distracted by something else and order it when I go for FAKE 3...

But chocolate would be nice since it's something I rarely eat ^^

just picked it up today! Your teasing days are over now, Sunshine! ^^
Read it in the bus on my way home, and people was giving me weird looks...

Completely off-topic: madame_manga just posted a (worksafe!) short story about Manji and his sister, set before the manga starts. :)

Aw, thanks for telling me! I just went through it quickly - I'll want to read it again before I say anything to her. So sad - but I can see why she's worrying at that bit of the backstory.

When I visited Nashville, it was the same way!

So did you buy yourself a copy? I enjoyed it a lot ... .

(And how's you father, BTW?)
