About Those Picture Books

The last post, I said I wanta talk about the mangas I have read, known or own. Hummm mangas. Everybodeh love mangas right? Right? *crickets* Oh well. It’s a piccie book for grown up kids! I mean, there’re tons of genres you can choose from, just like books! The difference between a manga or comic (whichever suits you tastebuds) and the normal book is that, well…. A comic can explain a situation in one panel when a book will have to explain it in a whole page. Oh well, I’m too heavy-assed to give a demonstration so just let it be okay?
My reaction to giving a decent explanation to you guys.

If by manga, the first one that pops out to my head is the ancient, well you can say ‘classic’ ones like DragonBall, Crayon Shin-chan, Dr. Slump, Doraemon, Slam Dunk and etc. I grew up surrounded by mangas ya know. My brother and sistah are crazy for these books. Well, at that time, they’re still priced along RM2-RM3 per book. So damn cheap looh. Compared to nowadays… RM4.50-RM5.90… Ughh that doesn’t count the English translation ones…. Can go up to RM50 per book. Hurgghh the pain and torture… but if people look up to individuals who bought novels as their hobby, why won’t they do the same to people who buy comic books? 
The concept that comics are for kids hung around our asses like flypaper to body hair. (lolwut)
Those people need to be shown some hentai and yaoi, for kids my nether regions.... SARAH and MIRA do your magic and tantalize the non believers with the power of your gay porn comics!
SERVES THEM RIGHT INDEED.
My friends are creepy yaoi fangirls. Bllleeeeerrghhh. 
By the way, Mira where the heck’s your blog?
I'm waiting fer yer blog Mika Mira Amirah Dzulkiflee...

Oh wow, well, back to comics/manga/picture books.

As I said just now. The classics. Hum… the first comic I have evar read EVAR is don don DON…

Even looking at this picture gives me that warm feeling of childhood memories.
Doraemon~ Ehe hehehe… I love Doraemon, up until now if I had the chance to have one in my hand I’d surely read it over and over and over again. why? Because it is deeply implemented in mah childhood memory~ You know as a kid, all you wanted in a book is the cool stuffs right? You don’t freaking care about the storyline or dynamic entries or cool looking people and what not. 
Show a kid this pic, and they'll be like 'Meh' and 'Oh okay'. Show this a hormonal teenager and they'll be like 'OMG THAT'S LYKE THE COOLEST KAKKOI-est THING EVAR!!!!!1!!!!" hoo boy, cat-ears and tail, megane long-white-haired bishonen, bandages (suggesting bondage~)... Wow. Oh well. I'd take Kuro Karatsu and Kaiman anyday than these two.
All I ever wanted as a kid is the ‘Fishing Gum’ that Nobita uses to fish out the stuffs that appear in the telly. Oh how I will fish out every single KFC fried chicken that appears on screen, plus I’d like to fish out the stuff Nigella Lawson bakes~ And I’d fish out that guy from ‘License to Grill’ so he can grill some ‘batang pinang’ at my kampung~~ And OH! And the hot male models for perfume ads! Just for the heck of it!! Muhahahah!
Gotta catch 'em all! Oh I love this piece of hawtness SO MUCH.

My first memory of seeing a nekkid cartoon character was Shizuka bathing. Now when I think about it, that may be the reason for the sudden need to ‘learn’ about the human bodeh. (Well for me atleast) y’know how kids are so like ‘BOOBIES!’ and suddenly they come up to you and pinch your ass? Well, I think comics are to blame… What don’t look at me I don’t pinch butts when I was a kid, whaaat…
Oh little kids and their tendency to walk up behind you and poke you asses..

But hey, Doraemon is a very awesome manga, lively, creative, cute and makes me dream of how things would be so much awesome-er with technologies, even as absurd as in the comic itself. It's the first comic that made me realize that the world is practically littered with endless possibilities. Even if Nobita is a bitchy, whiny crybaby...


One bad memory though, my brother used to own the WHOLE SET if the Doraemon comic, then one of my cousin (uncle to be exact but age gap so small so we don’t care) borrowed it. Then he kinda gave her GIRLFRIEND to BORROW OUR mangas. The WHOLE SET.. and when they broke up. She never returned it. FU*k you damn bitch. Gimme back all of my bro’s investment on comic books! RRAAAGEEEE!!!
Return the books BIATTCHH!!
