I Thot You Was a Toad's Topics (247)

I don't know whether the scanlation group is defunct or not but I know that the manga is already complete. I have the manga at home.

Oh, has it been licensed then?

In my country it got licensed. (I am german.) But I think it didn't get licensed in english yet.

Thanks, Mukuro. If that's the case, and it's been this long since an update, I will assume that the English scanlation was dropped, or that the scanlator forbade it from being uploaded here.

You're welcome. Yeah, that may be the case. I hope for everyone who cannot read german or japanese that it will get licensed in english in the future because I liked the story. I would rather not have it as a finished scanlation on the Internet because there will be less people buying it (I am actually the type of person who buys every manga I liked (even if it is just a bit) in any language I can understand at least a bit. So I even buy them in french from time to time even though I need a dictionary for almost every sentence)

I certainly make an effort to buy manga whenever I can if I like the story.

Just curious where you go for your manga? I have been trying to find the home tutor vol 1 and it's like 400+$ where i have found it.. I would love to buy some of my favorite works!!!

I have a friend whose a fellow fujoshi and works in Japan. I wire-transfer some funds every 3-4 months along with a wish-list and when she's shopping for her own faves and spots the ones I like, she puts together a care package for me. I get a big box of books about twice a year. I tried it other methods, but found the language barriers almost insurmountable.

I also give up if the price is out of consideration. I like yaoi, but I'm not in the same financial league as art collectors.

That is such a good idea! I bet it's like christmas when your package comes! Well I am very glad we are able to at least read them online! Thanks for getting back to me so fast!! :)

:-) I don't get yaoi delivered for Christmas, so it's better than Christmas. I know there are brokers in Japan who will deal with special orders — hunting down doujinshi for specific fandoms at conventions, or the works of specific mangaka. I don't know any brokers personally, but if you asked around, there may be someone who could point you. Why don't you post a query on the front page of Mangago and see?

I'll have to give iy a shot :)

But are they all in Japanese then? Sigh if I'd known how obsessed I'd get with manga I would have begged to learn Japanese as a child instead of the other ones I did learn.

Now that I totally understand! It's quite addicting :)

Also the fact that uke butts are always clean and they always cry during sex.

Right, and they all moan like porn stars (which they are, I suppose.) I mean, if I ever moaned that much, I would've had someone call for an ambulance.

See, and that's why they all aim to get an apartment with sufficent soundproofing. My 70+ neighbour one fllor above me lately expressed her compassion for my obstinate bronchitis. "You're coughing even late in the night!"
╥﹏╥

Bronchitis is awful. I hope that clears up soon.

Ah well it was whooping cough brought in by my kids (we were a happy bunch of barking dogs around christmas), which diminished to bronchitis - but that was far too mainstream, so I went ahead with laryngitis. Now I've got a "vow of silence" and lots of pretty gay pills (you know - multicoloured), which are supposed to cure...eh...all of it.
But to return to the main point, you forgot about the "nonono"-mantra the average uke has to mutter 'til completion.
I don't know what kind of survey prompted these clear-cut "flavouring ingredients" but - one rarely sees deviants. That makes them all the more precious (≧∀≦)

That no-no-no mantra never fails to piss me off. Say what you mean, dickhead! Which is "Harder! Faster! Deeper!"

Well, it might be a stimulating fantasy for the average person to send the mind on vacation. Generally spoken it leaves the active participant with two choices:
1. Stop, because you care (No? why? something wrong? hurts? recommendations? preferences?)
2. Or don't because ...well, you don't.

Real life requires Door #1. In Yaoiland it's always some variation of Door #AliceinWonderland.

Which bring us back to gay pills. Which supposedly cure all.
Not to forget *Yaoi magic*
*sparkles*

Funny comment, but you have obviously never lived in an apartment building with a 'screamer' - Every night, she would scream so loud the whole apartment complex would hear her! Once a week the superintendent would have a list of complaints about the noise ... LOL It was torture for about 1/2 a year, then they moved out.

See, I'm a very suspicious person and doubt that screamers are as out-of-control as they want the rest of the world to think. I think they are utterly sincere in their act ... of exhibitionism.

So what did you do in the meantime? Rustle up some popcorn and hand out party hats? Wait 'til the show was over and then give her a big applause and Olympic Judging style number count?

We were a little to chicken to do that (This was my first apartment on my own (I was almost 18 at the time) and most of my fellow neighbours were uni students too, so we just ducked and covered, then complained to the landlord ... hehe - mind you we did the same with the house parties too, until we started hearing things break ...) Canadians - we're too polite for our own good sometimes.

:-) You never know exactly who you're dealing with, either. It doesn't sound like self-restraint was a treasured character trait. Better to be discrete than to regret it later.

You're right, these gay pills are a cure for everything..STDs, common sense, worls agony...
:-D

Love this comment!! And subsequent comments lol. yaoi Magic it must be. Also... If you're really horny there's no need to "get ready" for anal, just thrust it on home!

Okay, I don't know why but I can't stand Riju for some reason. He annoys the hell out of me! (╬￣皿￣)凸
Damn what a fine fine brothers Chisato has... I drooled...ლ(´ڡ`ლ)

Fair 'nuff, but what does that have to do with dick size to sperm count ratio in yaoi mythology?

Ummm, actually, I dated a guy once, who felt bigger than normal this one time, so yes, it IS possible. I don't know what to think as to why, other than maybe he was super-excited??

I can't agree more with what you said!

I think it's the eyes (and facial expressions maybe) that sometimes reminds me of Disney. Idk, it's like a combination of what we typically would consider as Japanese manga/anime art and American comics/animation art. Especially if you look at their art, you can see a combination of both (or at least in my opinion):

Well it probably reminds you of Disney because someone always dies. Great story but the guys really don't connect yet.

Nah, story wise, it does not remind me of Disney at all (i'm purely talking about the art).

Thanks for the link, Kathy. It's gorgeous art, but it has a slightly American quality to it ... hints of Atlantis, Tarzan, Tangled. It doesn't look like Frozen or Mulan or Hercules, though; so, maybe not Disney per se, but one particular animator/animation group within Disney? The mannerisms, too, where there is a lot more physicality in throwaway gestures, like blowing out of the side of the mouth with exasperation or leaning on an arm just so ( http://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/canis/mh/v02/c001/pg-25/). And you're right, the Japanese style is there, too, especially with the gestural quality, which reminds me a lot of Nakamura Asumiko. Anyway, I like it and there's a lot of freedom with the way the hair and bodies are drawn. It's a very attractive style and the story is great.

Yeah, I agree with Kathy. It's only the art that has a few elements and gestures which look influenced a bit by Disney ... and not ALL of Disney, but very specific movies (Tarzan, Tangled and Atlantis.) The rest is pure Japanese.

Also, apart from the New York Mafia Dons back in Ryou's past, nobody has died so far, so what did you mean?

Yeah ı wasnt a disney kid but bodies are like from Emperor's New Groove ı dont like it and I think theyre creppy . But ı like disney princes' eyes very much though
.......... ╮(￣▽￣)╭

Ahh, you must be talking about Glen Keane. Yeah, I can see a bit of his style in this. He's got a style that works really well with both flowy and blocky shapes and he's a real master of making his lines really look alive. It makes for a really nice marriage of "Eastern" and "Western" styles, for sure.

I think it kinda reminds me of Aladdin..... And yeah, the gestures do reflect the Japanese manga aspect of her art. It's super unique!

u MAD?
