yeah, I hate it already.
And I am open minded, but there are things I don't like.

"Confidential Confessions" is a manga, but it would make an interesting anime.
Here's what the back cover says:
Confidential Confessions explores the lives of two lost teenagers looking for answer's to life's biggest questions. Manatsu hates her mom, her friends, and her meaningless existence. She's so depressed, in fact, that she decides to end her life-- and brazenly cuts her wrists right in front of her mother. When her suicide attempt is unsuccessful, Manatsu soon meets a classmate who's as into cutting as she is... and, together, they plan their joint suicide. But, in the end, nothing goes according to plan... and when one friend dies, the other comes to some earth-shattering revelations about life, death, and the true legacy of suicide.
Yoshioka is a teen prostitute and runaway who doesn't believe in love. Everything changes when she meets a street performer named Ryo who loves her for who she truly is. But when she turns one last trick to pay the bills, she risks losing everything.Will their love conquer all?!
Would anyone care to here the thing about Volume 2?

Now thats a better summary. If you can't sum up a story in one sentence or a few more, then the story is broken. em...these stories i dont think i would hand pick to read if i had a choice, but I'd read them if there was nothing else. Thats not saying much but i at least I'm not saying that i already hate them without reading it myself. They're not exactly to my preferrance though. Dont you have any other mangas about any other genres beside suicide, death, desolation, sadness, depression, and the underbelly of society?  |

You wouldn't read Death even though it is an American comic.
It is good, but I did not say it was better than anything else on the list.

I didn't say all american comics are good. I don't judge them soley on their nationality, unlike some other people...

thats probably because you never read any other american comics.. i think you actully said that once, and if you did read any other comic, what were they? i like marvel comics because they're cool. so are the old batman comics, the ones that invented the words "biff!" and "thwak!" there are some sites that let your read the online, and they're neato ;D

Heather, i could care less about how much manga you hoard every day. Unless you understand the meanings and lessons behind them and any other superficial crap i can make up right now, It just says you're another fanboy...er girl. I judge comics and mangas individually out of the croud. I think both types are great, but i dont automatically think all of them are great. Hey, there's two new anime's on Adult Swim. I'm guessing they're only short series. One is really really freaky and the other I think I'd like if i see more episodes. Whats its name is the one thats weird... um FCDL? I forget, but its some combination of 4 letters. And then theres Blue Gender, which i guess is cool cus its like Starship Troopers mixed with Futurama...kinda.  |

I do understand these mangas, why else would I continue to "hoard" them? It's actually FCFL, or something close to that. I can't believe they finally put that on TV! And Blue Gender! Wow, now I have a reason to watch Adult Swim again.  |

That FCFL or whatever it is really wacked. I'm keeping an open mind though. Last night was the first episode right?
Blue Gender looks cool. But why do the bugs roll their victims into green balls?

its FLCL and it stands for Fooly Cooly, thats what they said anyway. but yeah, that show is weird, like, really really weird. but blue gender isnt al that bad either. robots, blowing up bugs, killing stuff. you know, the usual.
