I read hxh from v12 till chapter 169 last night. I stopped reading hxh few months ago (maybe last year?) because the September xx chapters are boring, but it gets good after that.
YaBB SE is taking a big step, it's now changing its name, forum and website into Simple Machines or SMF. So far, the new forum version looks really cool.
I'm still waiting for my vagabond, GTO and OP order from amazon.ca to ship. The delivery estimate was showing: 22 April – 29 April 
. So I mailed in a complain, and Amazon said that it's only a bug in the system. I ordered the mangas on July 20, so it's been 2 weeks now, hope Amazon is going to deliver them soon.

I went to the comic store bought Vagabond 3 and Gunnm LO today. They cost $40 CAN in total, but I’m happy 
, I enjoyed reading them. The Vagabond graphic novel costs $21 CAN and Gunnm Lo costs $16.5 CAN. I suppose Vagabond is more expensive than regular manga volumes because it’s bigger and has some color pages.
Too bad the comic store doesn’t have the newer volumes, so after I got home, I ordered Vagabond 4-5, along with One Piece 1 and GTO 12. Turns out amazon.ca sells Vagabond cheaper than that comic store >_< ;. Oh well, it's only a dollar difference, but it adds on if you buy lots.
I’ve been buying more manga lately, since I got a job. Feels good to have a job. I have to work till Saturday, only days off are Wednesdays and Sundays (but i have a class on wednesdays), but it worth it.
Oh btw, if you haven’t seen Pirates of The Caribbean, go and see it! I think it’s the best summer movie this year.
Since I heard T3, Charlie’s Angels and Bad Boys 2 aren’t very good, the next movie i’m gonna see is prolly Finding Nemo o.o. Unless if something else good comes up. Comments?

I just got LoTR book 2 from the library. Well, actually they gave me the bundle of the whole 3 books, though I only requested for the 2nd volume. I was planning to read the 3rd book after I see the movie (so I won't think the movie is bad), but I think I won't be able to wait that long, specially since I got the 3rd book too now. I was hoping that I'll get Da Vinci Code first, but that one has a long lineup in the library.
Now, time for some rants on Viz! I got my ShonenJump September edition yesterday (never figured out why they send it 2 months ahead), and there are these 2 pages of RK character info (Kaoru's info). In one of the images, Kenshin says "OOP", where in the original version he says "ORO", which is his trademark word.

I'm just hoping that they only changed this for the character review page, and not gonna change all "Oro" into "Oop" in the manga, or a lot of fans will be pissed!
