Hikaru no Go complete edition

[lucathia]

*_________*

Randomly browsing the Jump website for Tenipuri images and came across Hikaru no Go complete edition. The covers are gorgeous and the mini color page that comes with it is so cute!! The color pages from the original magazine chapters are in tact too. Goodness, I want this even though I already have the complete series. Eeee, and the top image for the site changes every time you reload. T-The site has quite an innovative design too with the rolling scroll and the go stones that change every time you reload! The clickable ones shine for a bit to indicate that they're clickable. These covers and inserts need to be made into icons. :O

edit: The current Hikago headers!!! So pretty!!! Here's one example:



Aside from Hikago, anyone following 1/2 Prince? Prince is so funny and truly a bishounen. I wanted more after I read 4 volumes of this, so I went and found the original Chinese novels and am procrastinating from my paper by reading it. This is one of the few manhua I enjoy. It's about a girl playing in a realistic online game as a guy to prove to her brother that she can be strong (she was the only one allowed to change her gender. This wasn't explained very well in the manga, but in the original novels, she was allowed to do so because she was the very first person to log into the game when it started). It turns out that she makes a very hot guy. There are so many other cool looking bishounens in this too. |D

Oh my god, those headers are gorgeous! What exactly is the site advertising? Also, new Hikago art. DO WANT ;_____;

[lucathia]

Complete editions! New reprints of the manga. There will be twenty volumes in all, so we'll have 20 more gorgeous covers. *____* The new inserts in each volume includes chibi characters. They're soooo cute. This is the one for the first volume:

[dumbimps.livejournal.com]

*FLIPS TABLE* BUT I ALREADY HAVE ALL THE VOLUMES ;A; I CAN'T JUST REBUY THEM... or can I? Sob /feels wallet deflate

S-so cute :'(.

[lucathia]

I KNOW. SAME DILEMMA HERE. D: B-But the covers and the inserts. ;_____;

[dumbimps.livejournal.com]

As a side note, do you think you should post to hikarunogo about this? This is news, afterall :'>.

Sigh, Hikago holds such a soft spot in my heart ♥ New Hikago official art means new fanart, hopefully huhuhu

[lucathia]

I guess I should. I thought this was late news (since there are already 6 volumes) but I guess most people haven't heard about it. More people need to know about it!! *_____*

For me too. I hope this sparks your art muse too!!

...I have no Hikago icons. MUST REMEDY.

[darkicedragon]

:D Eeeee! Love the headers!

XD But I've just finished reading Nurarihyon no Mago! And... oh man this manga is so much fun! *continues to rad*

[lucathia]

I'm so going to be checking back every month or so to see if they've updated the headers. Soooo pretty.

Ahaha, did you start reading 1/2 Prince? It makes me want to play MMORGs, but I've never formed teams as interesting as theirs. XD; Or had meat buns for pets. XDDD

...Nurarihyon no Mago? I think I'll be trying that out too. Sounds interesting!

[darkicedragon]

*nods* They soo are. :DD

I am now. :)

XD Naaah - the teams in MMORGs can get veeery frustrating. 'Course, if you get in a good team, they can be fun too, so it depends on luck sometimes. ^ ^

Nurarihyon no Mago's cool, if a bit repetative at the start. We're getting story arcs now though. :D

[lucathia]

I've never been able to form a good team before. I'm such a loner. |D I've only ever formed teams with my brother. One cleric and one mage going around.... XDDDD

Hm, repetitive at the start? Well, I'll find out~. (But must resist until after the paper's done!!)

[darkicedragon]

But the team works though...?

XD So she's starting to meet all the people in her team. >D This is getting interesting.

:D Finish the paper first, and then read as much as you want.

[lucathia]

True. XD except when we went to dangerous places and got killed in one hit Mages don't have very good hp or defense. |D But they sure have some high damage and decent range.

Isn't it fun? XD; I'm just around the part where they're showing her real life a bit more.

I knoooow...and yet I continue to get distracted so I keep having this paper hanging over me. *continues slaving over it*

[darkicedragon]

D: Ouuuch. And they really don't have high defense (in WoW, they wear cloth which is the absolute weakest thing you can wear)

*nods* :D It really really is. 1/2 Prince's gonna replace my love for Gamerz Heaven. XD;; It's been ages since I've seen anything new for that.

XD Aw, man, I wish we could have seen the scene after Gui calls her brother Prince. *is semi-plotbunnied* ;___; And I wanna know how Wolf and Gui met/figured it out (I'm guessing Wolf did since... yeah XD)

D: There's no category for 1/2 Prince on ff.net.

^ ^ How much have you got left?

[lucathia]

Exactly. Even mage equipment has weak defense!

I read one chapter of Gamerz Heaven a loooong time ago. I think I didn't continue because there was only one chapter then. XD;;

I know, what a cliffhanger, isn't it? which is why I went and found Chinese scans. I read up to volume 4 so far, and I want more. D: I'm going to try to find volume 5 at this Chinese bookstore that has some manga.

...we should fix that. XDDDD

It's a five part paper. I finished the "doing" part of it, which is teaching and filming, but now I need to analyze everything. It's coming along so slowly. D:

[darkicedragon]

But, yeah, ranged attack that's strong makes up for it (high, ranged attack seemed weird).

Gamerz Heaven is sooo much fun, but unless the somehow got rid of the limits of saves, it probably wans't going to last that long either. ^ ^

I want moooore. And it gets updated irregularly too. D: Noooo...

There's only three people on LJ who've got 1/2 Prince as an interest and if you try searching for it on ff.net, all it searches for is Prince. :((

Five part? Youch. How long's it meant to be?

[lucathia]

Despite the weak defense, I still really like using mages. |D

Another for my list of to read then!!

The chapters have been coming out pretty frequently lately. At least, the last three chapters came out in the same month or so.

LOL, and one of them is you! *goes join you*

I'm slowly reading the Chinese novel version. (but I do miss all the art!) I've read up to their fight with the Phoenix team with all the "bishounens." It's only the second novel. There are eight novels in all! I wonder if the artist is going to illustrate it all. I hope so. :O

Each part has it's own page limit, around 5-8 pages for each. I've heard that usually this assignment ends up well over 50 pages. I'm...just finished with the first part and halfway through the second. Already 13 pages long.

[darkicedragon]

XD I'd only just started using a mage (level seven, I think) so I havne't had that much chance to use it.

:D ... ;P I think there's only two translated volumes of Gamerz Heave. Gah. :(

:D Yey!

XD It's just not the same, if it gets described to you - you need to see it too! :) I hope so too.

*whistles* Woah, that's long :O

[lucathia]

YOU CHANGED YOUR ICON!!!!!

[darkicedragon]

XD Yup!! *lols at your reaction*

There's now six people with 1/2 Prince as an interest. Weeeee! :D

I'm also wondering if I should get the Plus account, because I want to crop pictures of Gui and Human!Wolf. And I've remembered that I can add text in Paint. But I don't really need to (and the pictures are too busy to see any of it anyway. XD;;)

[lucathia]

*makes an icon to go along with yours*

Blah, this scene is not nearly as classic as yours!

Yesss, you need icons of Gui and Wolf!!

[darkicedragon]

:D *squees* What scene is your icon from? ...Wait, I think I remember - just before they went against the Hell's Murderers. (XD I think I've read this about three/four times already. Maaaaan, I get obsessive/addicted far too easily)

I'm amused by the fact that the default pic is supposed to be the pissed off Prince, while my Pissed off icon seems more pissed off, when he's just focused.

*thinks about your icon* :D I'll get a Plus account and then colour in Gui's hair. I'm going to assume that Wolf's hair's brown. XD;;

[lucathia]

I was just going to color in his eyes, but they didn't nearly stand out as much as I thought they would like that. XDD LOL, I've read it quite a few times too...since I seem to have forgotten things between releases. You get addicted easily and move on easily too. =P

Prince does look more pissed off in this icon than the other one. XDD

Wolf's hair is probably brown in real life? But his fur is supposedly gray-ish, right?

[tokki-chan.livejournal.com]

WAUGH! Those are so gorgeous. I so want them, even though it's a waste because I already own them, too. But only 20? Aren't there 23 in the original?

Also, I see an ad for the Hikago DVD boxset. Why aren't we getting it, too, Viz?? D:

[lucathia]

I know, aren't they just so gorgeous?? There are probably more chapters in each volume. Just like how the Yu Yu Hakusho complete edition turned out to be 15 volumes when the original was actually 19 volumes. This and the Shaman King complete editions both make me wish I had never bought the originals so I could buy the complete editions with color pages and everything. Maybe I can sell my old ones off somehow?? D:

[blue-cage.livejournal.com]

They are gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous headers aslkdasdkkdsj I just screamed out loud and my neighbors all think I'm insane now~♥♥

Also I find the background on this to be very distracting because I keep thinking is this supposed to be Torajirou I'm gonna flail now for a bit more brb.

[lucathia]

ASDKFL;AS

I think you're right. Who else can it be??

[blue-cage.livejournal.com]

Obata don't give anyone else ideas about Torajirou at this time sdlfksdlfjksd Oh God. I tink I just died and went to heaven then. ♥

*steam comes out of ears and falls over*

Hika....go...

(I MUST HAVE A BIGGER PIC OF CHIBI SHINDOU!!!!!)

[lucathia]

I need a bigger picture of all the chibi!!!! Why so cute...

[troisroyaumes]

That's so gorgeous! I'll have to bookmark this site immediately. ^^

[lucathia]

I bookmarked it too! Must keep an eye on future volumes.

[lucathia]

Nice to see him drawing Hikago again. The colors and positioning are amazing.

April is turning out to be a nightmare. I'm a week overdue for my big paper...
