Manga Pulse 65: Object of Gunslinging

We found the News this week, yay. Ok there is only one thing that’s really manga news but we bring it too you all the same. I review some adult manga while Tim is still wondering if one of us has reviewed his manga before. The fun continues in what some call the best show ever. The show that’s old enough to retire.

Object of Desire – Wouldn’t kick it out of bed for crackers.
Gunslinger Girl – Wouldn’t kick it out of bed for crackers. Continue reading “Manga Pulse 65: Object of Gunslinging”

JLPT Level 2: Passed!

So I just got my notification in the mail. I took the level 2 JLPT test on December 7th and passed! I passed by the skin on my teeth, but I still passed. The passing level was 240 out of 400 and I passed with 272. I thought you had to pass each section, but apparently you only had to pass on the total score. My reading/grammer score was 5 points below the 60% cutoff, but I still passed. And here is the proof:

Manga Pulse 63: Shakugan no Tennis

Tim is ANGRY and we don’t know why. There is absolutely no Manga news this week, we just rant a little about emails then go into our reviews, and oh what reviews they are… I review Shakugan no Shana which seams to have been written by a 4th grader, and the enchanter reviews Prince of Tennis, I didn’t like the manga but I didn’t review it… Yay for dots…

Shakugan no Shana – Read it at Borders.
Prince of Tennis – Wouldn’t kick it out of bed for crackers. Continue reading “Manga Pulse 63: Shakugan no Tennis”

Manga Pulse 62: Vampires hunting Yokaiden

Well it’s official. It’s my turn now, Weltall is officially sick… Son of a bitch, oh well, I’ll live. In typical Manga Pulse fashion we soldier on despite physical ailment, unlike certain co-hosts of a certain show *cough*Batou*cough*. So we read a book and talk about some manga, and as we are becoming way too accustomed too there is no real news in the world of manga.

Yokaiden – Wouldn’t kick it out of bed for crackers.
Vampire Hunter D Volume 11 (novel-wa) – Read it at Borders. Continue reading “Manga Pulse 62: Vampires hunting Yokaiden”
