Ahh, yeah, a good tsundere can be great, although I find they become a bit two dimensional a little too easily. When done right though, they are awesome. Haha, maybe actually, that would be kind of funny. To be fair, he was only really nice to Ellie, so maybe he was just always one of those characters who's suuuper selective about who they show their affection to.
Nanashima was pretty adorable, but yeah, not for her. He could do with someone a bit less... forceful? Igarashi is just super annoying, so fucking pretentious just because he realised he liked her personality not her looks. Like, congrats, you joined the ranks of normal people. The kouhai was probably my least favourite actually. It really bugged me that he treated her so differently depending on her weight, but still tries to get labled the innocent kid. Omg, yeah, I'm kinda sad they didn't do a bonus chapter where she ended up with the girl, that would've been awesome. Can you imagine the amount of BL they'd read together XD
Haha, yeah, the sad moment when the art degrades instead of improving T_T
I hope you manage to find the time to learn Japanese then! It's always tough squeezing these things in, but if I've learnt anything from the bits of language learning I've done, little and often is far better than a dedicated two hours when you have time. I was doing far better when I was just learning one or two words a night than when I crammed because I had a test the next day and then left it for a fortnight. (pro tips brought to you by a person who can barely ask for directions in another language :P)
Haha, really? I low key fell in love with both of them basically immediately, it was a little terrifying XD To be fair, basically my two favourite character types are stoic and adorable af, and they are both amazing examples of each, because they have more to their personality than just that, which I very much enjoyed :D Oh yeah, I know what you mean, Pain Overlord becomes such a nice guy, but he was such an asshole in the beginning. I wonder why, he clearly likes humans, so I don't really get why he acted like that in the beginning. Oh well...
Ah yeah, that's true XD Yeah, agreed, none of the others are really good enough for her, and senpai's the only one who'd be able to actually put up with her, so there's not really much of an option. I mean, maybe you could make an argument for one of the others if they're your type, but senpai's hot and has the personality, so I don't think it'd get very far. Haha, yeah, when I heard that I actually felt kinda stupid for not realising she was a BL mangaka XD I should really try some of her other stuff...
Honestly, it kinda makes me feel a bit emotional seeing how far Bleach's mangaka came, especially since it was one of the first manga I read. I feel like more mangaka should do that tbh - there's no way after drawing as much as they do that their style doesn't change, and it's rather endearing, especially for long running series.
Haha, don't worry, I totally feel the same way XD I really want to go to Japan someday, although I'm not totally convinced I'm going to be able to learn the language. I am beyond awful at languages... :'( Oh well, as long as I can ask for ramen, that's all that matters :P
Yay, glad to hear you liked blood bank! Who was your favourite character?
Yeah, I'm not sure I could cope with being with a person who makes the same mistake over and over. If you have two things that are important to you, you have to learn to balance them, otherwise it's not fair on anyone. Senpai was unbelievably selfless and patient, I honestly don't even know why she was hesitating with her decision. Ah, true, I still really love the series. It was a great read, and it's interesting to see that, of all the people I've talked about it with, everyone has had the same opinion. I mean, I guess it's pretty obvious what the best outcome is, but I don't think I've ever had that with any other series.
Omg, so much gto to read XD haha, I love it when an artist's art improves over time like that. Makes it really weird when you go back to reread it, but it's so sweet. I think Bleach is actually my favourite example of that. Seriously, the difference between the art at the start and the art at the end is like day and night.
I think it must just be a habit thing. When I used to watch anime straight through, I didn't even think of doing something else, but when life gets in the way, you feel a bit weird only doing one thing for ages. Maybe I'm just too easily distracted now as well. Seriously, the amount of times I've started doing something random while watching anime, only to realise I have no clue what's going on because I don't know Japanese and missed two lines of subtitles.
Haha, yeah, Blood Bank really does get you hooked XD Glad to hear you're enjoying it :D
Yeah, they do go a bit over the top with the fangirling, but I'm pretty sure I've gotten like that a few times... XD I'm with you on the anti harem thing, especially when the mc is nothing particularly special (ie, in every harem and reverse harem ever) It really pissed me off that most of them were only interested in her after she lost weight, especially the kouhai who was actually pretty mean to her before she lost weight as well. I was rooting for sempai from the start tbh, although I wouldn't have minded the cosplaying girl if she realised she was gay :P The rest didn't deserve her. Although, by the end, I kinda felt that she didn't really deserve sempai either. She was kind of a shitty girlfriend. Not saying that she had to be like she was right at the start of their relationship 24/7, but she just ignored him for ages pretty much out of the blue from his perspective. Pretty harsh :(
Wait, GTO has a prequel?? Damn, totally missed that... Honestly, it's kind of sad how you gradually loose interest in longer series. At the begining of my anime watching I had no qualms about watching all of Bleach (a pretty meh anime) in one go, but now I can't even sit through all the episodes of my favourite anime without taking a break part way through. It's mad really.

Hey, thanks for the comment :)
It's probably human mistake. Going too fast, sometimes trusting other sources, isn't the best idea and mistakes might happen :P
Haha, yeah, Blood Bank really does get you hooked XD Glad to hear you're enjoying it :D
