((Heads Up: It finally posted after four hours of trying! ＿|￣|○))
Hey guys! 😀
If you follow me on twitter you would have seen where I made another order on CDJapan. It was perfectly timed because the loyalty program gave an additional 500円 to each customer with an account for a small time period. So I ended up saving 1,000円 on two large BL mags. I’m shamelessly happy about it. (*´﹃｀*)
But I wasn’t expecting the package to arrive until next month, but I guess living out on the country has some shipping advantages (not to mention it was 500円 cheaper to ship to my house instead of my mailbox on campus!!!)
Naturally I would have torn at the box like some deranged animal, but it was early in the morning and I originally went to air out my stuffy mattress. Until I saw the box in my chair.
(video will go here since the WordPress app doesn’t like video :/)
Not sure if the video attached from my phone, but that’s my lazy reaction xD (I apologize for the intial swear in the beginning).
I will go more in-depth after I finally finish my in-depth look at this years January issue of CIEL. But, for now, I can provide some initial impressions for these two magazines. 🙂
CIEL (シエル)
Harada’s cover art is simple, yet draws me in somehow.
Love Stage!! bath scene..mmhmm~
glad to see Love Survivor is still going and wasn’t just a one-shot manga.
Oh hey! So Sweet, So Tight is still going too!
the shotacon manga debut is the uncomfortable kind of shotacon, but I won’t let that stop me from buying future volumes of this mag
getting some hardcore Lamento vibes from these cat-earred gentlemen~~~
this issue is actually a lot smaller than the January issue.
I wonder if the other stories I hoped would continue got bad ratings…
new things to read, so I look forward to that (*^^*)
that is some yummy looking man butt…
that guy is attractive for no damn reason!!! *because his hair style is like Ryo from the Marriage Contract dating sim*
Emerald CIEL (エメラルド)
very pretty cover art by Kyoko Aiba 😀
I still have mixed feelings about Junjou Romantica, but I look forward to watching the special PV DVD that came with this issue.
Holy shit, posters!!!!
silver-haired cat-ear gentleman, hello there~~
Nakamura-sensei‘s style has softened up a lot. It’s not as sharp and angular as it used to be. Anatomy seems to have gotten better too. :3
ohhh, light novel exerts. Cool!
These color inserts are pretty
age-difference Sekaiichi couple is my favorite~
those uke eyes are going to give me cavities, sweet mother of God! q u q HOW CAN YOU BE SO CUTE?!
Emerald is so smutty… I like it.<3
Oh hey, a flashback to Nakamura-sensei‘s old drawing style. *confirmed that I was right before*

Well, my phone is about to die now.
Until next time, take care guys~!!!
