Peacemaker Kurogane

[louiselux]

Peacemaker Kurogane manga is really good. Brilliant art and a complicated (all right, baffling at some points) story line, finely drawn characters and lots of historical detail.  Oh, and mysterious cat boys. It's a continuation of another series, which makes for a feeling of being plunged in at the deep end.  I had to read both volumes twice to properly understand who was who and what exactly was happening, but I was glad I did. It treads a very careful line between lightheartedness and intense drama, from what I've seen so far.

I'm going to see if I can pick up vol 3 in London on Wednesday, where I shall be attending Pulse 2005 at Earls Court.  No, it's not a lentil convention, but an interiors accessories show.  But yes, Peacemaker Kurogane--I recommend it.

Oh yes, now that you mentioned it :) I completely forgot about that :P Up to episode 32 normally. There are only 7 or 8 more episodes, of which one is being held hostage by Chewie, but at least I can send you up to the end of season 1.
But I'll also send you a whole bunch of Bleach, which starts off a bit... slow perhaps (as in slow to get to like), but once you like, there's no turning back :P At least not for me. Can't wait to come to London and find the manga there hopefully :)
Talking about London, thank you very much for the tips and of course I'll drop you a line when coming, so we can meet up for lunch or tea or dinner or all of the above :D
*hugs*
