The Manga-Anime-Asian Drama Confessional Thread

[destiny4ever]

If it wasn’t for the fact I was already spoiled about what is going to happen

between Shota and Sawako

I mean Sawako finally clearing up all the misunderstandings by confessing to Shota

and the fact they do become a couple

I confess I would have started to seriously consider dropping Kimi ni Todoke (the anime). All the misunderstandings between Sawako and Shota have become pretty frustrating.

[M3J]

I knew the anime would have fillers! How long have the misunderstandings been going on?

Though, you can't really blame the anime when the manga releases monthly.

Fillers? No, there haven’t been any fillers so far…

How long have the misunderstandings been going on?

The misunderstandings are all canon and they have been going on for the same time they did in the manga.

Though, you can't really blame the anime when the manga releases monthly.

No fillers, so there is nothing to blame for.

Oh, kk.

Do the new episodes air weekly or do they make each chapter = an episode skillfully?

Each week we have a new episode, and I think (but I'm not 100% sure) each chapter = an episode…at least so far I do think each episode has been the adaptation of one whole chapter. Although, I did notice they have made some minor alterations here and there...

[saladesu]

Gotta agree it was frustrating But this being shoujo manga, you technically already know that they will end up together eventually. The operative word, of course, is "eventually". It did take nearly 40 chapters to get to the point you mentioned - imagine, for readers reading every month since the start that would be 3 years!

I think I felt the same with the Hanadan dorama too I'm sure most romance stories are like this as well. With KimiTodo the situation is probably exacerbated by Sawako's lack of knowledge/experience with expressing herself and with other people expressing themselves to her in a not-so-direct way. As frustrating as it is, it also motivated me to read the next chapter. I'd be screaming in my head, "NOOO!! Hurry and confess!!!!" and then I'd want to read the next chapter to find out if s/he did

[destiny4ever]

I confess that I’m thrilled after reading the latest Bleach chapters. Why?

Because it seems like Rukia and the rest of the shinigamis, but especially Rukia will be back soon!! I have been dealing with Rukia and IchiRuki withdrawals for some weeks, so I was super happy after finding some IchiRuki bits in the latest chapters and, what is most, the possibility of Rukia returning to Ichigo’s side in a very near future. ^_^

[saladesu]

I totally agree, Destiny I found a lot of the latest chapters pretty lame/laughable for the most part (they had their redeeming parts, though). But the thought of Rukia (and the rest of the Gotei 13) returning has me really excited

Speaking of Bleach... Most people like Orihime but I don't. I think a big reason is the fact that she "usurped" Rukia's position as the "female lead" of Bleach. I guess it's more of a bias than anything else

I’m a huge Rukia fan!! I <3 Rukia, she is great!!!! Just like Ichigo, I’ve been missing her quite a bit.

I don’t hate Orihime, but ….well…I don’t like her either, especially after the HM arc. I didn’t like how her character “developed” during that arc. And I’m going to pretend I didn’t read this part *Destiny covers her eyes *

she "usurped" Rukia's position as the "female lead" of Bleach

Since Rukia was, is and will always be Bleach’s leading lady. And fellow Rukia fan…and ichiruki fan?

[Zeltrax]

Uh should I put this in spoiler to join in the discussion ?

I like Rukia too, more like, I love her personality and how she was the one that kick'd ichigo back to his senses back then, that was one of my favorite scene of them! To me Ichigo and Rukia is always like this:

With rukia doing the smacking . My fav male character is Kenpachi but my fav female goes to Rukia with Senna being a close second. I guess I like her more than Orihime too, I think she is far more a developed character and is emotionally and mentally stronger than most people in the show.
The last scene in the arrancar arc made me love the entire chapter, the Ichigo and Rukia moment felt really good!
But but! The anime had to remove/postpone that
And ichigo was so cool when rescuing Rukia, that was his coolest moment for me in the entire manga .

Yay!! Zeltrax joined the discussion!

Are you a fellow Ichiruki fan, Zeltrax?

I like her personality too, and the kick scene was great!! However, my favorite scene of that episode/chapter is: This and this.

My fav male character is Kenpachi but my fav female goes to Rukia with Senna being a close second.

Kenpachi is great. I like him very much, he is among my favorite Bleach Captains.

I guess I like her more than Orihime too, I think she is far more a developed character and is emotionally and mentally stronger than most people in the show.

ITA.

The last scene in the arrancar arc made me love the entire chapter, the Ichigo and Rukia moment felt really good!

Loved that scene!!! One of my favorite IchiRuki (spoiler) scenes. I would love a sig with that moment!!

But but! The anime had to remove/postpone that

Something similar happen after Ichigo finished fighting

Grimmjow

, they altered the scene. But later on when the canon episodes returned they fixed that scene, so I have faith that the anime team will fix that scene once the canon eps return.

And ichigo was so cool when rescuing Rukia, that was his coolest moment for me in the entire manga .

I completely agree. Ichigo looked so cool during that scene (spoiler) And I like how that isn’t the only time when Ichigo has saved/protected/rescued Rukia.

[Zeltrax]

Are you a fellow Ichiruki fan, Zeltrax?

Always, and always will be.
I love the two of them together so much especially during early Bleach

I like her personality too, and the kick scene was great!! However, my favorite scene of that episode/chapter is: This and this.

Oh oh, that's a great scene too! There's a lot of comedy scenes with the two of them that are too in Bleach . Just seeing them together is a plus for me.

Loved that scene!!! One of my favorite IchiRuki (spoiler) scenes. I would love a sig with that moment!!

& I would love to try making one...which I just did.
Here:

I can't believe I hadn't made one for so long . I know it's not such a good job since I'm new in the siggy business, but I'm still learning . I made that when listening to the latest bleach opening..it gave me the right mood.
I don't know, maybe I shouldn't put the lights in the middle..or should I? Anyway not to go off topic, you can always join all of us at this thread whenever you want! Oh and do vote for the sig contest, there's a lot of awesome artists in this forum

But later on when the canon episodes returned they fixed that scene, so I have faith that the anime team will fix that scene once the canon eps return.

Okay, I'll try to have some faith in them too. It's just that I feel that the impact won't be that great unless handle well. Hopefully they'll handle it well

I completely agree. Ichigo looked so cool during that scene (spoiler) And I like how that isn’t the only time when Ichigo has saved/protected/rescued Rukia

Yep, the most recent one being

the one with yammy, that was short but really cool of him

and I also like how he

"copied" what Rukia told him a long time ago back at the cemetery and told it to his dad .

My Response after finding out Sala & Des chan don't have strong likes for Orihme from BREACH.

I confess that I want to see more Korean comics become anime.
Recently started to watch Freezing by Dall-Young Lim.

I confess that I hope more of his works get animated.

[M3J]

Freezing is good, right? I found both main leads' relationship with each other to be cute. :3

Yeah but the main character follows the main naive shonen thing. Which can be annoying at times.
The anime so far has been good but it most likely will have an original ending. I think its only slated for 12 eps.

I really would have preferred if Aflame Inferno was the one that got animated. Manhwa by the same author.

The only difference is that Freezing manga is published in Japan.

Edit: Not the "only" difference between them lol.
