It sure has been a while since I made a wallpaper and I think I may be have to polish my Photoshop skills once more. I’m getting rusty. Anyway, here’s a brand new wallpaper~ It features the series Vampire Knight and the words are from the lyrics of the opening song, Futatsu no Kodou to Akai Tsumi. The size is at maximum at 1600×1200. Enjoy!

For me, going through rows and rows of books on a book store these days result in me being disappointed in not finding at least one book that catches my fancy. As a professed bookworm, that is extremely frustrating.

So imagine my surprise when I was browsing through rows of manga and comic books and found this since book with an artbook like feel and cover. What’s better is that it cost me less than $4 in full price! As I could never afford English-translated manga and prefer buying Japanese ones for scanlation, the book was a wonderful surprise to me.

The title of the book is Lament and was created by Hu JingXuan. It was originally in Chinese but was adapted to English by Chuan Yi Publishing.

Lament by Hu JingXuan

The summary on the back cover is as follows:

“Like the aftermath of apocalypse, angels stripped of their voices and heaven laid waste.”

Sin. Temptation. Rage. Regret.

Below, lost souls of the underworld grow restless. their murmurs, oncesilent, now overwhelm the senses with their deafening cries. As the sins of the mother who forsook her humanity to serve her new master are passed on to her accursed newborn, sixteen years on, the devil’s spawn walks on human soil unaware of his fate, even as ominous signshint of his eventual awakening. the day when the dark apostle crosses over and devours the world.

Rather than think of the headache that is the relocation of Aerandria, I thought I’d distract myself with some manga titles that I would love to see continued.

Kurogo

Kurogo is a rather humorous manga about a black cat named Kuro and how he lives day by day with other cats and humans. However don’t be fooled by its cutsy kitten characters, for this manga goes deep into many everyday issues such as loneliness, courage, life and death.

Yami no Matsuei

It’s BL madness, you know! I want to see a definitive development of Tsuzuki and Hisoka’s relationship!!! And more of Tsuzuki’s past and some other love triangles~ XD

X/1999

C’mon! Bishies galore! And they dare leave us hanging for the story? >.> Sorata-kun~ <333

Ayatsuri Sakon

Weird choice for me, I know. But I saw the premiere of this series about ten years ago the same day I saw Gravitation (for which the event itself warrants its own blog entry ^^) so we were left hanging with only one episode. It’s a bit of a dark story with some mystery and horror.

Hunter X Hunter

The one shounen series that I completely adore!!! We want to see Gon and his father see each other! We want another showdown between Hisoka and Gon! We want some hint of shounen ai! Maybe… XD

More to come as I continue to distract myself~
