otaku dot ph is re-launching!


It has been a while since our last post (not including the Anime Review I just posted a few hours ago), and obviously this is due to uncontrollable instances. I had to transfer jobs, chokoreitou had a life-changing earthquake and tsunami to deal with. But now that we’re back, we’re going to be so much better.

With the help of our newest member, otaku dot ph will be re-launching soon!

Yes you’ll see new designs and probably a new logo to go with it, but that’s not all.

We’ll be covering more topics (yey!) coming from more writers (yey!).

I won’t give away everything right now, though, just to keep you guys thinking. But here’s a teaser:

Based on a personal survey I conducted (with a sample size of three people :P) I found out that people who like Anime also like, wait for it, Gaming! Boom! So yeah, we’ll be reviewing games and gadgets, and trust me, we’ll be as updated as we can with the latest gadgets and games out in the market.

In fact, I couldn’t wait to get started that I’ve written my first Game Review before I wrote this announcement. I won’t be posting it today, though, so please check back very soon. :)

The official re-launching is scheduled on August 1st, but you won’t have to wait that long to enjoy the new goodies we will have to offer.

In the next few days (that’s tomorrow or the next day), the new segments will start showing up.

By mid-July, the new site layout should be up. A couple of weeks after that the site should look completely refreshed and by August 1, otaku dot ph 2.0 will be up and running.

So tell your friends and keep coming back, cause, you know, WE’RE BAAACK!

(wow, that ‘rhyme’ sucks)

Konpe #2: Manga [Japanese Version]

 

Konnichiwa minna-san! Ohisashiburi desu ne.

Anyways, I’m back. (^_^)v

Manga are Japanese comic books. Manga is often made into Japanese cartoons, or Anime. The art in Manga has a very definite look to it and is often referred to as “Manga Style.”

Manga are very famous here in Japan. It is read by almost all ages. Also, the genre of manga is very broad.

I’m going to review Crayon Shin Chan manga first. I’ve bought two already but haven’t finished both yet.

Here’s a picture of the manga:

By the way, I believe there are two kinds of manga here. One is the glossy and colored manga. The other one is the paperback (not sure how it is called, hehe). Of course, paperback manga is cheaper since here, it is disposable. Yes, disposable. You could actually see piles of manga on the streets and if you want and have the courage, you could get those and bring it home. Honestly, I don’t like paperback manga. Though it’s cheaper, the quality is not that good. I easily lose interest with those kind of manga. But for the glossy one, it is a different story.

So back to the manga I bought. The first few pages are glossy and colored. Probably 10 pages or so. After that, it is not anymore. ^^; Atleast it is still glossy. (^o^)

You could buy manga at convenient stores and of course, at bookstores. All of the manga I have was bought at convenient stores. I believe the price is the same regardless of where you buy it. Since the price is printed on the book itself. Hehe.

Here are my final ratings:

  • Appearance: 5 of 5
  • Content: 5 of 5 
  • Price: 5 of 5
  • Overall: 5/5 Perfect Score!
