This is just a quick post so it'll be short.
Just found out that Kimi no Iru Machi has officially been declared completed as a scanlated project at "volume 27" for about 2 months (it's not an actual volume but it'll come out as volume 27 as the end). Damn this ridiculously long and drawn out manga that I stopped after the "Tokyo reunion after the male lead craps on everyone to get back with the girl" Arc. (chapter 100-something) I think I'll attempt to try and reread the manga from the beginning and continue to the end now that I know it has officially ended. If memory serves me right, this manga is kind of like Ted from How I Met Your Mother where the male lead is kind of a man-slut except KNIM is more emotional based than physical despite Ted's emotional neediness (a difference in which I think age ie life experience is responsible for). It's actually not such a bad manga (despite me comparing him to a man-slut). This manga is like an harem manga but not as cliche as the general baseline for harem stories like...(don't punch me for this) Love Hina. In a way it is stomach-able but at the same time it makes you want to smack the crap out of a number of characters in it. I don't know if it got any worse after I stopped reading it (already felt like it was dragging on but I persevered until I could not) so maybe by the end it'll actually be more smacking of characters. Hmm....anyway, I can't believe it's finally laid to rest. Something I might get my hands into during the summer =)
Side note:
Seo Kouji not too long ago returned to Half & Half. I initially thought it was kind of like crap but for the most part, the plot is tweaked and the tone of the story seems different in the serialized version. Hm...
