Revisiting a good story. ^^

I randomly dl'd a bunch of chapters from the Whistle! manga, and my love and excitement for the anime was renewed. If you haven't seen or read it, I HIGHLY recommend it. It's about a kid who wants to play soccer on his school team, and his drive and determination to become better. Yes, it's a shounen sports story. Not necessarily atypical, but the characters are absolutely the best! =D The manga's 24 volumes, of which I have 14 chapters. Please dl them if you're interested. The anime is 39 episodes, so although it ends relatively quickly (*sobs* T_T) it also doesn't go on forever past its prime (aka, filler).

Reading the manga has made me literally jump up and down in excitement. I have to go watch it over. <3

Date: 2007-01-18 08:21 pm (UTC)i might have exaggerated the Whistle! i saw... but that just leaves more to watch for the first time, right? i would really like to see it with you. i've been watching shows so much here, and i keep turning around the squee at someone, and no one's there... which is good and bad, good because i look like an idiot when i turn around and realize that i'm looking for one of you guys, but bad because NONE OF YOU ARE HERE.
listening to the guitar hero soundtrack is really cool, but some songs just need to be listened to with a plastic fake guitar in hand... oh and i asked this dude on my floor who plays both guitar and guitar hero and he says that it does make it easier to play guitar hero if you play guitar, partly because his fingers are already used to the movement, but also because he can listen to the actual song and practice how it would be played, because he can pick it out. which he does. someone really likes guitar hero....
as for fanfiction, i understand: go watch anime. but just know that it awaits you, as do i :) muahahaha
