Free Manga!

Well it's been a while for anyone to update the family blog, so I figure why not me. As some might remember way back in Noverber, I won the 365 Days of Manga contest on suvudu.com! Basically, just sign up every day in the sidebar and if you're persistent enough Jason Thompson, the biggest manga expert out there, will send you 5 manga for free! Then if you take a picture with it and post it somewhere, he'll send you 5 more. What a nice guy, right?

So I went out a took a picture almost the next day right before I went to the Imogen Heap concert. But of course I'm a procrastinator. A girl can change a lot in 233 days, so I took a way better updated one. And the last pic is me with my friend Andrew who also won, thanks to me telling him all about it.

It took me 40 tries to win, and considering there's a good 80 days left you're odds are pretty good to still win. Sure, some 2000 manga of Jason's vast collection is already gone, but I'm sure there's some great gems yet to be had.

I have to mention how awesome Song of the Hanging Sky is! It has a beautiful setting full of in-depth characters and the simple plot of survival. Right now it's in my top 5 manga of all time, and I've read a lot. I still haven't read how volume 2 will fair, but with Go! Comi's departure I fear future volumes will never see the light of day in North America. I only hope to see more from Toriko Gin.

A final thanks to you, Jason. I've had a chance to get King of RPGs and I'll always love more. Hope to meet you some day.
