      So it is as alive as myself and few other posters can make it.   
      
       My most recent post aside from this commercial promotion was   
   about KAKUKAKU SHIKAJIKA Manga   
   かくかくしかじか   
   Released:     Author & Artist:        Genre(s):   
   2011         Higashimura Akiko       Josei, School Life   
      
   This is an autobiography of the author, whose real name is Akiko   
   Hayashi, which begins while she's in her third year of high school.   
   I clipped the rest of the post so you can go there if the matter seems   
   of interest but one of my friends is finding it quite enjoyable though   
   he prefers Samurai stories set in Edo period or even in early Meiji.   
   9 chapters of Samurai of the Meji Restoration he quite enjoyed as   
   it tells the tale of the end of Samurai power with the defeat and   
   suicide of Saigo.  He is also enjoying both Sabu's Arrest Warrant   
   and Osamu Tezuka's story about his ancestor and his friend the   
   Samurai HIDAMARI NO KI Manga which happens most so far as the   
   bakafu begins its disintegration.  I think I covered both of these   
   on ram.   
   	I spend a lot of time looking at manga online some is terrible   
   stuff of the sort I call simple-minded wish-fulfillment fantasy.  The   
   manga mentioned above and another Waratte!SOTOMURA-SAN  is abot a girl   
   who looks like a deliquent though her heart is gentle and she only has   
   an unfortunate smile,  Very pure 4 coma humor.  But it has short arcs   
   as well.

   	Thanks for your opinion, Dave.  I am always happy to hear from   
   someone who has covered so much of the anime scene as long as I have   
   been subscribed to the newsgroups.
