I had to write this entry for one reason and one reason only. Something very disturbing I read online:

Basara Manga Licensed.
Basara, Yumi Tamura's popular manga series, has been licensed by Viz Communications and will be released bi-monthly in unflipped graphic novel format. Basara, the tale of fraternal twins Tatara and Sarasa and their life in a post apocalyptic world, ran for 27 volumes between 1991 and 2000.

::screams:: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! MY BASARA! MY PRECIOUS, PRECIOUS BASARA! ;_; I can't believe it.. it's going to be corrupted by the Viz people who think it's clever to strongly emphasize words continously (I'm not even exaggerating) because what, they think it's clever? (Try reading outloud that previous sentence with the emphasis.. you'll see why I have a headache.) I should've seen this coming, ESPECIALLY because when I bought "Chicago" (another manga by Tamura), it mentioned in the back that this was by the author of the epic Basara. -.- I guess Chicago did well in sales... must've been a test, since Basara is a pricey release thing. But MY BASARA! ;_;

I hope mangaproject doesn't drop it.. my heart would break. Such a good manga.. I chose Sarasa for my epic hero in English. anyway :) wanted to comment on that.
