Tonight

Would be odd if it rained tonight.

Very odd..

I hope it doesn't rain.

Not that I dislike the rain or anything though... it's not that.

Edited: And who woulda thought. It rained.

I felt really plain.. wasn't sad. I think.. Just plain.. not empty either.

I really didn't know how I should have felt.

Maison Ikkoku

Another one of Takahashi's work.

I feel so addicted to her manga because... I see bits and pieces of myself in her male protagonists.

Every time one of her manga series come to an end. I get so sad because I feel so absorbed into the characters. Here are some images

I actually began this post quite a while ago but couldn't be bothered to finish it. I finished the manga in about 1-2 weeks. Got so absorbed to it, especially since there was a sense of time in this series. The characters aged, there was Christmas, New Year. What I really disliked was how the characters looked really similar. At the start, Kyoko and Yusaku looked very distinct. One could say the aged.. but as the manga drew on they looked very similar to Inuyasha and Kagome.

These two images.. well.. it sort of sums life up pretty well and how guys would feel when they like a girl huh. I think I've been there, though, that guy there is not the main character of the manga.

Just some strange feelings of feeling closer and closer to a person especially after times that you spend together alone.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This scene is near the end. The girl (Kyoko) finally accepts the guy's (Yusaku) proposal. Ikukuo is in fact a widow so she asks for a meaningful promise... after all.. being alone in this world does suck.  Lastly.. just wanna note how she looks so much like Kagome form Inuyasha..

And again.. the word understanding comes up. I think it's very important for a healthy relationship. I just want to be able to talk out any problems with the one I love and sort it out very quickly. Kyoko often forgets how Yusaku really feels, something I think I've been in before.

More about misunderstandings in a relationship. But.. I posted in mainly cos of the food that she made him. Wonderful feeling when someone wishes you good luck or makes you something ^^. Lifts your spirit heaps..

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

I feel like a failure a lot sometimes. And talking with someone I'm really close to makes me feel a lot better. Here also.. it's the horrible feeling of being compared to someone else. Sometimes, you just want to be loved because you are you. I'm not even sure who I am at the moment.. and I think Yusaku feels quite lost a lot of the times as well.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I just really love this manga a lot.

I love how there is that idea that that one girl could change a guy's life.

I love how Kyoko waited about 4-5 years for Yusaku to finish studying and getting a career. They walked through those hardships together.

I see myself a lot in Yusaku and the events that happen to him. He gets sad pretty easily over the girl he loves.

But I noticed there was one huge difference between me and him. He never gives up for some stupid reason like I do.

But heck, it's just a manga.. happy endings must be met. This is real life. The situations are different.

Edited it.. 'Ikuko' --> Kyoko. Knew something was up the first time i wrote it.

Feeling like absolute shit

I feel like absolute shit right now. But I'm managing.
I guess I deserve what happened though. I can't believe it would happen to me though.

And during times like these especially, you just wish you had a girl to talk to.
May be just a friend, not a girlfriend.

A close friend that I feel very comfortable around.

I had that and I didn't want to keep it. Guess that's my fault as well.
Why am I such a stubborn, selfish ass hole. Is it being selfish or being selfless?
I'm not sure at all.
I'm just not sure any more.

I did try talking to a few other people, not just girls. It never felt right at all.
It never really did.

I threw it all away. Why does it happen to me though? Of course isn't the answer simple?

I'm an idiot.

These things

Shit.. I realised that Takahasi's manga and anime aren't good for me.

They make me so sad sometimes because I often see bits of myself in her male protagonists.

And all those relationships.. it sorta makes me dwell in the topic and I get really sad..
.
Sigh..
