Then there are so many I wonder where to begin. I look forward to hearing your thoughts on the ones you choose.tanabatahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04592550784537825632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19926025.post-15851889750899959912008-12-01T08:13:00.000-04:002008-12-01T08:13:00.000-04:00Thanks, Court.

I actually have the first two seasons of Fraggle Rock on DVD. lol So, I probably will check that series out. :)Kailanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11136262232046813471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19926025.post-54791686329647205842008-12-01T07:30:00.000-04:002008-12-01T07:30:00.000-04:00I found Return to the Labyrinth slightly disappoin...I found Return to the Labyrinth slightly disappointing myself - but I've only read the first one. The illustrations on the inside weren't nearly as wonderful as the cover or other fantasy manga series', and the story seemed more like fanservice than anything else. BUT a fraggle does make an appearance, which was pretty darn cool in my opinion.<BR/><BR/>My favourite manga are Ouran High School Host Club (which you'll enjoy if you like making fun of stereotypes in shojo manga and anime) and Prince of Tennis (which is about a jr high tennis team). <BR/><BR/>I've only read the first volume of them, but Godchild and Alichino are GORGEOUS. Godchild is a gothic manga, and Alichino is more fantasy oriented - I highly recommend them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19926025.post-65365146900775650032008-11-30T17:19:00.000-04:002008-11-30T17:19:00.000-04:00Rhinoa: If I had some in my TBR pile, I would be ...Rhinoa: If I had some in my TBR pile, I would be in for sure. I just hate committing to something I don't have the books for! Even if I buy those four, that's more manga than I have read in the last couple years.<BR/><BR/>Nymeth: Yeah, there are like 13 or so Death Note books and the boxed set is 70 bucks in Canada. If you bought them all separately that would be like 130 bucks...Kailanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11136262232046813471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19926025.post-79224491096235236042008-11-30T16:14:00.000-04:002008-11-30T16:14:00.000-04:00I'm tempted by the Labyrinth and Dark Crystal book...I'm tempted by the Labyrinth and Dark Crystal books too. And I'll definitely be starting Death Note next year...I didn't know there was a boxed set! I'll have to look into that.Ana S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16092495983972185943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19926025.post-43116127305430122922008-11-30T15:53:00.000-04:002008-11-30T15:53:00.000-04:00So glad you have signed up even if it's only tenta...So glad you have signed up even if it's only tentative. I definitely recommend the series you have listed. I have asked my husband for Return to Labyrinth 3 for Christmas as it only comes out next week. From what I have read of Death Note I can highly recommend it. I think th emiddle ones go a little downhill from talking to Alex, but it picks up again and ends very well. I have only read the first 3 so far, but am hooked.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
