Something I have never told anyone before...
Now, it's time to come clean...
I'M READING A MANGA AND WATCHING AN ANIME!!!
It's not as big as I made it to be but I've never started actually bothered about Japanese comics and cartoons. But this particular one has got me hooked. It's called, wait for it, it's called:
The Full-Metal Alchemist! (you get the joke now?)
For several reasons, I found this one as the right one to follow and maaaybe obsess over a little. Here are the reasons in no particular order at all:
Military soldiers freaking out about ghosts
1. It's funny!
I mean it's hilarious! There are some parts I actually LOL at. I'm serious! Both the anime and the manga are really funny! The characters all have their traits that make you want to laugh as well as see how they turn out in the end.
2. The protagonist hates being called short.
Okay, so the full-metal alchemist is this short blonde head. He's a genius as well as a great fighter but he's also temper-mental. He bursts into a tantrum and beats up anyone who calls him short. I love this. Not only is it funny, but it reminds me of two of my best friends. A.T. and Nizzie. Both hate it when people mention something about they're height. I love doing it to them but now they aren't so short anymore but Nizzie still spazzs out when someone says something about being small-sized.
3. Swearing

(I don't want to be scolded for having a bad word on my blog)
Most fiction doesn't involve swears. But this one, does. It gives it a more realistic feel because when they're in a near-death experience or when something that makes them wet their pants comes by, they'll swear. In real-life, when I see a soldier I knew very well transform into a guy with hair like a palm tree and an evil smile, I will swear like crazy and probably run away. These guys though, will (try to) kick their butts. After swearing their tongue off. Obviously.
4. Possibilities...
If you can't tell from the word "alchemist" in the title, it has a little science. If you look at it in a way, some of it can be possible and it really helps when they're talking about the possibility of creating a human being because it can help me in the future when I'm in Honors Biology. (Muahahahaahahaahaha! No one else will know that one third of the human body is made out of carbon! Muahahahaahahhaahhaahaha!)
5. The little brother
I absolutely want to hug the little brother so much!! He's this huge armour guy but he's so loveable and innocent. He beats up bad guys when he has to, but he really is a big softie and has a thing for kitties! He also has the role of calming his older brother, the Full-Metal Alchemist.
There's a lot more but then I have to spoil the whole story to you guys. Go to onemanga.com and search up Full-Metal Alchemist. It's a funny manga and the anime doesn't follow the book so you get to have two great stories from the same world with the same hilarious characters. Hope you guys find it funny and have some mangas or animes to recommend to me!
Plus, some of the faces you get in the mangas and animes are really funny!

That's right, I ain't that short anymore!
ReplyDeleteI must admit, I WAS quite surprised. Since when did you start reading manga and anime and konichiwa and everything?
since my brother forced me to it. When you are in a friggin desert, it's the best way to entertain. Plus their facial expressions crack me up XD
