A yuri fan's blog containing reviews and impressions of yuri, as well as general silly fannishness. The word "boke" in the title comes from the tsukkomi and boke in manzai comedy.

Meaningless Rambling Post: Blog Under Construction
Because I want to use (another) different look for this blog, since the graphics that I used previously seemed too pastel for my taste. But it's hard to find something that A) looks feminine-ish without being kitschy or having shoes/shopping bags/some Cosmopolitan-esque cartoon woman on it, B) doesn't have something else completely unrelated, like jungle plants or a cat riding in a sailboat, and C) doesn't look emo. (Like the Sylvia Plath template.)
Plus, now for Japanese language class, I'm keeping a blog in terrible Japanese- with posts like "What I Did During Fall Break" and whatever else I want to write about for my classmates to see. I won't link to it here because...yeah... ^^; but it's out there somewhere, floating around the vast expanse of the internet for some poor Japanese-speaking soul to stumble upon it.
Oh, and I love these little CANAAN chibis I found. ^^ *squeals* So cute!!
The same pixiv artist also has super-cute chibi art of characters from several other series, like Saki (too many characters to post here ;_;),
K-ON!,
Hidamari Sketch,
To Aru Majutsu no Index/To Aru Kagaku no Railgun,
and Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha.
Even Higurashi.
(Not yuri at all, but chibi Rena with a cleaver = win.)
English-language instructions for joining pixiv, btw, are here.
Love Alphard's pose. Completely OOC of her but amusing none-the-less.
ReplyDeleteTOOOOOOOO CUTE!!!! Maria is mine!!! hahaha
ReplyDeleteOh jesus fucking christ...so cute they could suck the life out of me...
ReplyDelete@ P.S., Nakayo, and Snark- Haha, I'm glad you guys like the pics! ^^ And you can have Maria, Nakayo, but Alphard is mine!! *shameless fangirl* Anybody else up for claiming a chibi?
ReplyDeleteKawaii!!!! *punches a pillow*
ReplyDeleteI'd love to if you were willing to share Alphard. :P
ReplyDelete@ 2nd Anon- Hmmm... -_-; *Liang Qi-like reaction begins to manifest* Hmmm... *suppresses it* Okay, since you asked nicely. ;-) lol
ReplyDeleteis it true that there is a anime of girl friends manga in feb 2010?
ReplyDelete@ Anon- There has been a rumor like that floating around (and some dubious-looking GF anime screencaps), but I'm not putting any stock in it unless I see confirmation from an official source.
ReplyDeleteAhh, the raw for chapter 26 still hasn't been uploaded yet. I'm dying for it, since I've seen the spoiler!
ReplyDeleteI sincerely hope it won't take up to weeks to be uploaded. The previous chapters took less than a week to be scanned as I remember. Hmmm, I'm grateful to those who upload and scan the manga but I can't wait any longer lol :(
ReplyDelete@ Anon (both Anons, unless you're the same poster)- I'm looking forward to the next chapter of GF also, but I'm sure it will be out (and likely translated) within the next week- a miniscule amount of time to wait for a manga chapter, imo.
ReplyDeleteThis is going off the topic, but I've got a really random question about the August issue of Newtype. I know there is a GirlXGirl article in the issue but I'm just wondering if you know how many pages the article is?
ReplyDeleteThanks, do let me know :D if you know :D
@ Guest- No problem. ^^ It's a 6 page article.
ReplyDelete*drools*
