Cool wallpapers

This first wallpaper is from Mahou Sensi Negima. Its a panel from the manga, which I personally cut out and cleaned up to use as a wallpaper. It was just so CUTE!! I use it on my laptop.















This next one I got of the internet. Super wall from Higurashi no Naku Koro ni. I use it on my cell phone.

She's sexier than in the anime, but those eyes are pure Ryuugu Rena.

Class Act to read

Hi there u guys who are comic fans and have loved the Asterix series, did u read the latest(more modern) Asterix installment(the book is in a short story format i.e many small adventures clubbed together) >>Asterix and the class Act. If no then my blog will update u for good. These ar some reviews by customers at Amaozon who had purchased the book>>
1)First I need to start off by saying that I am a big fan of the Asterix series. And I found these stories very entertaining. Though first published in English in 2003. This set of stories was originally published in French in 1996. And was a huge success.
The book contains fourteen tales, including: The day Asterix and Oblix were born; How Oblix goes back to school; Fashion in Ancient Gaul; How Dogmatix helps the village cockerel win a duel; How Dogmatix is adopted as a Roman mascot; Asterix as you have never seen him before; Obelix's adventures under the mistletoe; The bid for the first Gaulish Olympics; The story of the creation of Asterix; The family tree of Obelix; and much more. Pick up this fun and book.

2)Let me start off by saying that I am a big Asterix fan. So it should come as no suprise that I loved this book. :) Though this is a First edition 2003 publication, it was originally released in French in 1996.
This book contains fourteen short stories including tales of: The day Asterix and Obleix were born; How Oblix goes back to school; Fashion in Ancient Gaul; How Dogmatix helps the village cockeral win a duel; How Dogmatix is adopted as a Roman mascot; Asterix as you've never seen him before; Obleix's adventures under the mistletoe; The bid for the very first Gaulish Olympics; The birth of an idea - the story of the creation of Asterix, and much more. I especially like seeing Oblix's family tree branching to the modern day. An enjoyable read.

REVIEW>>>
Title: MÄR (Märchen Awakens Romance)Author/Artist: Nobuyuki AnzaiPublisher: VizVolumes: 12
Serialized in: Shonen Sunday
Genre: Shonen
MÄR, taken from the first letters of "Märchen Awakens Romance", is the third running series by Manga artist Nobuyuki Anzai. Marchen is a German word that stands for "fairytale", which roughly describes the setting for MAR.Ginta Toramizu, a 14 year old middle school loser, is no good at studying or sports. Ginta has had the exact same reoccurring dream over 102 times, one in which he is smart, strong, fast, and has perfect 20-20 vision. In Ginta's fantasy world, he is a hero and must save the beautiful princess that looks just like the girl he has a crush on, Koyuki. Once he enters this make-believe world called "Mar Heaven," Ginta meets a renowned witch named Dorothy who leads him into a dungeon. Deep within this dungeon, Ginta finds Babbo. Babbo is the only talking arm and was once owned by Phantom, the leader of the Chess Pieces that once attacked Mar Heaven in the last war.The artwork for MAR is only a slight improvement from his older works, and some of the characters' models look like they were taken directly from before. For the most part, the whole series is centered on catching the eye of people that enjoy certain Disney fantasy movies, or anime series similar to One Piece.Reviewed by: YoJoeyProofed by: IlianaEdited by: Firedog
