Alita? Read a little of it somewhere years ago, and somehow it came across as a grungy, scrap-metal world version of Saint Seiya. Although I’ve only read three chapters of Seiya, haha.

@A20-man: Oh yeah, the books, of course! Wow, “politics, action, romance, religion, geology, philosophy”, reminds me of an Asimovian Imperial epic! Yeah, names like Poul Anderson, Arthur Clarke and Ray Bradbury all seem to be linked with Asimov. Sadly, I’m not as familiar with the others. Then again, I do know that Asimov wrote with a more clear-and-concise logic-and-reason-based style, rather than with the metaphorical dance of a verbose style. After I finish my “Battle Angel Alita” manga series, I might think about “Dune”. Stay tuned!

Ah, Asimov. I never did get around to him- read more of authors like Orson Scott Card and Poul Anderson.

@Jenn-chan: Haha, you’re funny. And not too late! Hmm, now I’m beginning to wonder who *they* are, those who labelled u *oversexed*, hehe. Intriguing… Ahh, I see. Then Sampson should have used the term “instinct” instead of “emotion”. Because when one talks about “self-preservation”, that better fits the definition of an “instinct”. If that’s the case, I would agree that “sex” is more instinctual. Here’s the Wiki on “self preservation“… Actually, while I still believe “love” is an emotion, I’d also add it’s a “complex” emotion not a “basic” one. Coincidentally, here’s another Wiki on the “list of emotions” that actually fits what I’m saying about “layers of emotions”. Wow, not bad… Ahh, as for “panties” or “pantsu”, that’s okay. I’m neither afraid or unafraid to say it. So I’ll just have to ask u to endure it whenever I say it again, lol… Hehe, fun stuffs, I know what u mean. But I still can’t imagine reading a manga volume in an hour. For me, I’d be afraid to miss all the little visual details! For example, with my “Battle Angel Alita” manga, the images are so detailed that sometimes I find myself re-reading a page 3 or 5 times for 5 or 10 minutes, so I can catch all the layered tidbits, facts, and hints in the frames, lol. But I suppose other manga are not so detailed or complex… Fortunately for “Ef”, there aren’t any true harems. In fact, there’s an equal number of males to females, which is rather rare and refreshing!… Awww, unfortunately, studying is a necessary evil. Better to take the bitterness in smaller repeatable bites between sweeter ones, rather than larger servings with no sweet relief at all. ^_^

P.S. Heyyy, by the way, I just realized I don’t have a 468×60 banner from your blog. Do u have one? If so, I think it’s about time u deserved a place in my random rotation and “About” page. Probably as a “Five-Star Toyboxer”, lol.

But nonfiction/work stuff isn’t the same as reading fun stuffs. ^^ Meh, ‘multi-girl’…you mean ‘harem with the undeserving male’. :P And blogging ain’t studying, man…-sad-
