Quotes From Kuronuma Sawako, Kimi ni Todoke Manga Volume 1

 Kuronuma Sawako

 Kimi ni Todoke

The following are quotes from Kuronuma Sawako, Kimi ni Todoke manga volume 1:

Thinking to herself during her first conversation with Kazehaya:
"When I told him my feelings, he understood. When I said I wasn't lying, he believed me."

To Ayane and Chizuru when they said they'd feel guilty if she played the ghost against her will in the test of courage activity:
"I have never done anything against my will. I want to get along with everyone, but I'm not being forced to do anything just for that..."

Thinking to herself after explaining to Ayane and Chizuru why she wanted to play the ghost:
"They understood my feelings! It's only a little, but I feel like I've changed."

To Kazehaya when he asked her if she wasn't scared playing the ghost by herself:
"I like the night a bit especially summer nights. The air, the smell, the sound of insects and such."

To Kazehaya when he told her to stop looking at him like that:
"S-s-sorry, I was caught up in the moment! I'll be careful to not look in your eyes for more than three seconds."

Peach Girl is Horrible!

Ack! I watched the first episode and a few minutes of the second episode of Peach Girl, and it is horrible! The characters are lame, the story is lame, everything is lame! Oh my God! It really sucks! I'm dropping this one like a hot potato. Oh wait, the hot potato would be insulted to be compared to this awful awful anime!

Valentine's Day in Japan

Happy Valentine's Day, everyone! :)

Have you noticed that in romance shojo animes, Valentine's Day is always a highlight? The girls make a big fuss about making their Valentine's chocolate from scratch, and then get all red-faced when they give it to the guys they like. I had always wondered why anime always showed the girls giving chocolates and never the boys since in my country it's the boys who give flowers or chocolates on Valentine's Day.

When I started reading manga I found out that in Japan, Valentine's Day is an occasion where girls give chocolates to the boys. The girls even prepare two kinds of Valentine's chocolates: honmei chocolate and giri chocolate. They give honmei chocolate to the guy that they have romantic feelings for and giri chocolate, or obligatory chocolate, to guys that they don't have any romantic feelings for.

Why is that, I wonder? :)
