haha..I know nobody is going to agree with me on this one! LOL
I have become absolutely, 100% addicted to Wataru Yoshizumi's Marmalade Boy (the Tokyopop edition). The story follows a young girl by the name of Miki. She finds out that her parents are not only divorcing, but are swapping partners with another couple they met while on vacation. To make matters worse, both couples decide to share a house with Miki and the other couple's son Yuu.
Well, as luck would have it Yuu is the same age as Miki!! There are multiple love triangles in this story. Everyone's in love with everyone! I am compelled...COMPELLED I tell you.... to find out what happens! Will Miki find true love!? Will Yuu!!? What about Miki's best friend!? What about Ginta!? Well, you see where this is going. There's one more volume left, and I can't wait to pick it up.
Now, I doubt anyone will agree with me. Everyone I know (aside from the middle schoolers I teach), hates Marmalade Boy with a passion. It's so funny that I can't get enough of it. I've read the volumes I have through several times...I'll probably read it may more. I just hope everything works out for them in the end. *crosses fingers*

Actually, all my friends have been highly recommending Marmalade Boy. The only bad things I've heard are that the main character is annoying and that she's really pathetic. I've been meaning to buy it but... I'm cheap. XP Since I like Sailor Moon, CardCaptor Sakura, Ah! My Goddess, Good Morning Call, and Zettai Kareshi, do you think I should go for it and buy a volume of Marmalade Boy?

Hey Janko! Yeah! I say you try out a volume! I love the series to death. It's funny all of your friends are recommending it. All of mine hate it! Yes, time to get new friends! LOL j/k j/k DarQ: Oh My Goddess is another of those series I could get into a heated debate with people over. It's sweet. Very very very very sweet. I've read some of the manga. It's alright. I'm not AS into it as I was in the anime. Yes, my room's decor revolves around the Oh My Goddess anime! ^_^ I have posters and models everywhere! Like I said, it's super sweet, but most people love Oh My Goddess. Those that hate it just can't stand the cute.

I've only seen a handlful of eps of the anime and I've read half a dozen copies of the manga...but I really preferred the manga. I'm not sure if I didn't like the anime because I was seeing it out of order ( which I find soo frustrating and distracting) or if it was just one of those animes that didn't click for me. Maybe someday I'llget to see it in the right order as it was emant to be seen and it will be better.
