We are just having fun reviewing and discussing comic books, graphic novels, manga, anime/animation, music and movies that we have recently read, listened to or watched.
Viz has announced that they have acquired the rights to translate Bloody Mary, by Akaza Samamiya, and Honey So Sweet, by Amu Meguro. These two titles will be published through Viz’ Shojo Beat imprint. Of course both involve a romantic storyline. Bloody Mary set in the world of Vampires and Vampire Hunters and Honey So Sweet is a high school story. They are slated for release in December and January.
