With summer in full swing right after the 4th of July celebration for a lot of you Americans out there, it's most certainly likely that you've more time on your hands.

Kimikiss anime was good, except the ending made me quiet mad... Anyone know how the manga is?

I need to watch Grave of the Fireflies. One of the only Miyazaki films I haven't seen.

Yikes, Gintama 13 is out?! I still need to get vol. 7!

HOLY CRAP THERES A KIMIKISS MANGA?!?!? WOO!!!

So yes, that, the bleach dvd set, and LoveCom, Naruto, SA, and Ichigo 100%.

 
Red Baylon

The Kimikiss manga is just basically borderline ecchi fanservice material featuring the same girls that are in the anime. The anime came after the manga and actually had a storyline in it so beware!

I don't care what you think, Now and Then, Here and There is the highlight of the week.

Whow. You guys are way behind. I got the N&TH&T box set years ago. & I live in Australia. But, at least you guys have ARIA the Animation.

 
lastSKYsamurai

Wait. No way you guys are only now getting Grave of the Fireflies.....? what's up with that?

 
Heero Yuy

In retrospect, I read the Kimikiss manga and loved it, but now I'm watching the anime....it's not bad but.... wth?
