lucathiaSome new books and manhua of Yu Wo's I recently bought~. Photos with terrible lighting up ahead, like usual.
Human Doll Contract V2, GOD (new edition) V1, Kill no More manhua V2, Legend of Sun Knight (new edition) V2, 1/2 Prince manhua V15, 1/2 Prince artbook V2.
Human Doll Contract V2! Features Yu Shu and Guan Jia (Butler) on the cover. On the right is Xiao Xue, I believe. I finished reading this novel the day I got it, oops... XD;; It was quite a riveting read! I look forward to the rest of the series~. Lots of unanswered questions still... Even though the first case is supposedly wrapped up.
The pull out poster features Lu Yang! But he doesn't really do much in this volume... His presence feels thin. (No wonder he's not the one on the cover). Still, he looks cool here.
Fu Jun~. He and his dad show up more in this volume. Fu Jun is actually quite involved in the plot this time around. What a responsible elementary kid. ;3
Yu Shu! Lazy, lazy author. With a toy sword. She's pretty hilarious.
Guan Jia (Butler). One of my favorite scenes in this volume was the scene where Guan Jia and Guan Ting visited Jiang Yu. Hilarious that Jiang Yu felt so impressed by Guan Ting's demeanor. (It's an act, an act!). Guan Ting has had lots of practice as the Sun Knight, so of course he comes off imposing and princely. XDD;;; (I really want to write more of Grisia stuck in present time...)
Cover for V1 of the new edition of GOD! Features Shooting Star and Xiao Bai on the cover, I believe... Though I've forgotten what Xiao Bai was supposed to look like.
Pull-out poster! Xiao Bai and Alan, I think? :3 Alan's hair is so wavy!
Shooting Star. It's so nice to have more art of them, and now the characters look less feminine too. There really wasn't a lot of extra art in the original printing of the novels.
The elf, Alan~. Hehe, such a disdainful elf. He deals much abuse. Be careful not to be zapped by his lightning. XD
I'm quite excited to see GOD expanded on like this! I hope the later volumes will revise the story more. (Yu Wo mentioned doing revisions, but I wonder how big they'll be!)
Kill no More manhua V2, along with a short novel side story. The cover of the manhua features Kaiser!
Pull-out poster of Liola.
V2 of the new edition of Legend of Sun Knight. Cover features Roland.
Pull-out poster of the Pope and Sun. (Kyaaaa, what a pretty pic of the two of them! Makes me want to write more of My Friend, the Pope (in-training) to have more scenes between the Pope and Grisia, but it will be a looooong time before Grisia reaches the age he is here in this pic, hahahaha)
Character intro art features Storm. I guessed that Storm and Roland would likely be the two featured in this volume, but I was reeeeaaaaally hoping we'd get Adair as one of them. Hopefully for volume 8. (PLEEEEAAAaaaaase let Adair be one of the ones with a full bodied intro pic!!!)
Here's Roland! His character intro here kind of spoils the volume... Since he doesn't become the Hell Knight until the end. :'D (But I guess anyone who is buying the reprint probably already knows the story? Hopefully...)
I'm guessing that the art for the next volume, volume 3, will feature Leaf for sure. Don't know who the other one will be.
I'm guessing the art for volume 4 will feature Ice and Blaze.
Now I finally know why posters of Storm and Roland were being sold. XD;; I thought it was a strange combo! Turns out that the art was going to be used for V2. I guess the other art I've seen floating around is probably being used for V2 of 39 LSK.
I recall that this pic was used for some of the LSK merchandise too. Chibi Storm and Roland!
Insert art! Sun performing the Hymn of the God of Light. Good, warm-hearted faction to the left. Cruel, cold-hearted faction to the right. Is that Metal smiling next to Ice? That wasn't my image of him! :O I think the one with the high ponytail is Stone? Or did I get them backwards...
The parade. XDDD With Storm carrying out his teacher's advice of chatting up the Sun Knight, pffft. Best way to avoid winking at all the females.
I was so hoping we'd get art of Adair, so I was flipping through the entire volume looking for Adair. This is what I got, hahahahaha. XDDDD Adair.... ;____;
The princess and Elijah during the deathmatch.
Back cover. :3
1/2 Prince manhua V15. The cover features Long Ming and Xiao Xiao Lan as their avatars. XDD Long Ming to the left, Xiao Xiao Lan to the right. I think she looks more like Feng Wu Qing than Prince or Gui. XDDD V15 details the sequel to 1/2 Prince, featuring Long Ming and Xiao Xiao Lan, the children.
Kenshin in an apron. XD He doesn't have a scar in RL!
Wicked and Xiao Xiao Lan's reunion. Wicked is truly forever fated to fall in love with 1) girls playing as guys and 2) girls younger than him. Seriously, haha. Look at his expression here. XD
Long Ming (on the right) is so cute! Xiao Xiao Lan blushing as a guy... XD;;
Elf and Demon Thirteen. I should finish writing the fic about them and Long Ming sometime. XD;
Including this because!! Kenshin and Cold Fox!! So, Long Ming and Xiao Xiao Lan run into Kenshin. They're unsure if he's Kenshin, so their solution is, "If he's Kenshin, then that guy must not be far behind!" And they're right. Cold Fox is very close by. XD
The last part of this volume was interesting! A side story featuring the Dictator of Life and Xin Dian. I believe this is manhua original. The Dictator of Life wanted to save his father, so Long Dian got reborn as a self-aware NPC called Xin Dian, much like how Kenshin and Sunshine were reborn. Didn't think we'd see something like this. Kenshine and Sunshine decide that Prince and the rest have no need to learn of this, since Xin Dian is basically a completely different person. Being reborn means that Long Dian has basically died. This could fit into the novel verse too, since it's not like Xiao Lan knows everything that's going on.
1/2 Prince artbook, 2nd one featuring art from the new illustrator edition! It includes art from all the covers and insert posters. Kind of makes it so that I didn't really need to buy the entire set of the new novels, huh? Since, it's much nicer having the art here without any folds! (I mostly bought the new edition for the art....)
The inside cover. (The previous photo was of the box that holds the artbook)
Here are some of the posters/pages inside~. The 1/2 Prince artbook is really unique and well, different from most other artbooks I have since all the pages are loose! No binding. It makes it easier to admire all the art. *____* The art here is so atmospheric!
I need to scan the one of Cold Fox sometime. *___* It will make a lovely wallpaper.
Here's the last of the pages. The one of the guys in suits is so, so awesome. We also get portraits of many of the characters.
The artbook is really worth the money. :)
I should be getting all of my other LSK merchadise soon, fufu. (Figurines, posters, come to meee!)

Date: 2014-03-16 05:16 am (UTC)Human doll contract
Date: 2014-03-24 12:17 am (UTC)What's the story for human doll contract and who are the characters?
Does Sun make a cameo or something?
It seems pretty interesting either way though
Re: Human doll contract
Date: 2014-03-24 12:31 am (UTC)How Sun is involved is that there is one character, a female author called Yu Shu, who wishes to life two characters from her novels. One of the characters is Sun. So I guess you could call it a cameo? He isn't the Sun we know from LSK, but is kind of like one from an alternate universe.
