About Me
I'd like to share what I know about: Anime, Art Supplies
I'd like to discover more about: Books, Art Supplies
I'm a student who breathes books. I also have an affinity for anything long and flow-y.
Outside of those, I'm a comics/graphic novel geek and enjoy drawing in various cartoon styles (would you believe I originally started because of Archie Comics?).

The first thing I have to say is WOW. Kaori Yuki's art is just gorgeous, especially her girls. I love seeing her illustrations with those old fashions, too. To summmarize the series briefly, orphan Cain is a 17-year-old earl in Victorian England. Abused in his childhood by his father who later committed suicide, Cain lives with his 10-year-old half-sister...more

Coraline sounds like it should be a very good story; after all, I've heard nothing but praise for author Neil Gaiman, and the recent movie has also gathered positive reviews. And the plot itself sounds interesting: Coraline, bored after moving into her new home with parents that ignore her and trying to escape her batty neighbors discovers that one...more

"All over the country, a strange phenomenon is occurring. Some teenagers who die aren't staying dead. Termed "living impaired" or "differently biotic," they are doing their best to fit into a society that doesn't want them." So begins the summary on the back cover. The rest of the blurb makes the book sound like a typical...more
Cartoons Come to Life

The first thing you notice when you start Speed Racer is the colors. A lot of movies go for a desaturated look, but Speed Racer ups all the colors. The world is a rainbow-bright mishmash of the 50's/60's and a 7-year-old's vision of the future that is half-CG. (Fun fact: the only physical sets in the movie were the Racers' house, the bad guy's offices,...more

Code Geass/Lelouch of the Rebellion: Stage -1- Shadow
Promising premise, but failed. POV jumps around too much, writing is stilted and talking feels unnatural. Best to stick with original anime.

Welcome to Lunch Karlisle! I also love to draw but have never tried cartooning, have you ever read Cartooning the Head and Figure by Jack Hamm? I wonder if you have ever tried the Staedtler fineliner pens, I want to get some myself. Anyhow, let me know if you need anything, I'm always around on Lunch!
