1. Open your library (iTunes, iPod, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc)
2. Put it on shuffle
3. Press play
4. For every question, type the song that's playing
5. When you go to a new question, press the next button
6. Don't lie and try to pretend you're cool...
( as follows )
In other news, I am growing to rather like 3gatsu no Lion, also known as March Comes in As a Lion, BWYS's latest joint project with SCX-scans. It's the most recent work by Umino Chika, the creator of (?) Honey and Clover, and for a wikipedia summary:
The series is set in Tokyo, following the everyday life of a 17-year old shōgi player, Rei (also known as Zero).[1] While describing the series, Umino noted that she based the setting of March Comes in Like a Lion on research she conducted herself, whereas in her earlier and most famous work, Honey and Clover, she had already been familiar with its setting.[2]
The protagonist Rei is a 17-year old professional shōgi player, who lives by himself, not having a real family, and does not go to school and has scarcely any friends. Among his acquaintances is a family, which consists of a young woman, Akari, and two young girls, Momo and Hinata, and who also keep a numerous number of cats.
Covers the general premise, yes. Other sources describe it as "life-ish seinen, with strong monologues and reflections by Rei." It's very philosophical. I didn't like the artwork at all at first, but... it grew on me.
So that ends my little sales pitch of the day. Hopefully if this becomes popular enough some American publisher will pick it up and there'll be legitimate releases in the US.
