Manga Review: PSYREN, My Brother Is Getting Married!

-
It's my manga review time! This time, the fortunate manga is PSYREN. I found this manga two days ago and I didn't read any comment from others when I read it because I knew that if I read it after seeing their comments, my own judgement for the story would be totally different from what I originally had. Therefore, I clicked the first chapter of the manga and went straight reading it without any assist. Luckily I did the right thing this time. It was a typical shounen, I must say but I'm fine with it. It's not that bad. It managed to keep me on the same position for hours. It really is not that bad.

           This manga is about a boy named Yoshina Ageha, who's a high school student who is chosen by Nemesis Q as a participant in the Psyren game. This games takes place in a world known initially as Psyren, which is revealed to be the real world a decade in the future (as I took from here). Ageha and his buddies are tranported to the future through a phone (which in my opinion, similar to how 'The Matrix' works).

         This manga is a shounen manga and it has 145 chapters. To be truthful, I have a love/hate relationship with time travelling concept. It's just so confusing sometimes, right? And all those time paradox things. I can't keep up with anything BUT I think that in some cases, we should just imagine that a future is just a parallel world to us. It makes things a lot easier. Besides that, this manga also involved some ESP abilities and stuffs like that which I couldn't be happy more about it. I love ESP manga. One of my favourites ESP manga are Ghost Hunt, Mekakushi no Kuni and Shinrei Tantei Yakumo-Akai Hitomi wa Shitteiru (I don't think it has something to do with ESP but whatever). I've read some of the people comments after I finished reading the whole manga and they said that this manga is not original or stuffs like that. I couldn't argue back with them because shounen is not my specialty. (Mine is shoujo, you know). I think that some of them are right and some of them are wrong but people have their own distinct taste, you see. It all depends on you, right?

         (Possible spoiler.) Anyway, move on with my review. It's quite known to us that light is always in the good side meanwhile black is always associated with bad, right? In this manga, it's the other way around. It's the bad guy that possessed the power of light meanwhile the good guy possessed the power of darkness. It's a fresh thing for me (at least). Besides that, people also complaint about the axed ending. In my opinion, the ending is okay. Just okay. I'm fine with the way things ended. I don't want this manga to be too long that could awaken my boredom but I don't want it to end too fast too because it would be horrible if the mangaka rushes to end it. Bottom line is, I'm not affected by it whatsoever. So, it's fine. It's not that super epic story but it worth of my time. It did teach me one thing. Appreciate the world as it is right now. We will never know what's going to fall now on us tomorrow.


        Okay now. It's 4:34 already and I'm dead tired. I supposed to go to my additional classes this morning at 9 a.m. but you know what, I can't. Reason = My brother is getting married today with his girlfriend. Until now, I still can't believe that my 27 years old brother is getting married to his girl. I wonder how's he going to cope with his married life. He doesn't look like a dependable husband to me at all. Anyway, we'll see.

Shopping Trip: Part Two

-

I just got back from another shopping trip of mine. This time, I went to buy some pens and my school bag. I just realized that this would be my last school shopping because next year I would be in my last form. I had no idea what to do next. I'm reconsidering to take Form Six somehow. Hmmm... Faber Castell pens         Anyway I bought a lot of pens. I love pen. It is my favourite thing to buy whenever I went into a shop. If I'm not mistaken, I bought 21 pens and one mechanical pencil. I feel satisfied! My favourite pencil brand is Faber Castell. I've used it since I was very young. My first story, ' Fairies and Warriors' was written by that pencil back in 2005. I want to keep using it until I'm dead tired of it!          Actually, that is not my real attention when I start to write this post. I'm actually want to talk about MANGA (what else?). When I was roaming the mall alone, I encountered a secluded section where there was many MA...

Nodame Cantabile: First Impression

Yes. That's what I'm reading right now. Nodame Cantabile had been in my wish list for more than a year before I decided to read the manga (though I did watch some of its anime). But, to compare the manga and anime, I think the anime deserves it better. Why? Because when I'm reading the manga, I can never know the sound of Mozart's, Beethoven, nor Liszt. But I do appreciate the humour. In fact, I love the humour. Nodame and her Ship-wrecked Home          Before that, let me tell you a little bit about Nodame Cantabile . It is a story about a girl named Noda Megumi a.k.a. Nodame that is a quirky character. She's very good in playing the piano (but she can't read the notes). Her house was like a shipwrecked and she loves to eat. Next door, there was a handsome guy (Chiaki) who also went to the same music academy as she did. Due to a fateful coincidence, they managed to become a good friend, except for Nodame's straightforward confession to him where Chia...

First Week In KMM

Hi there, peeps! I'm back from Kolej Matrikulasi Melaka (KMM) after a torturous week of orientation. (well, it's not that torturous, I'm just exaggerating.) You know, on the very first day of orientation week, everything was still seemed so unreal to me. I can't grasp the idea that I will be living on my own and there would be no more television or lying on my bed while reading books on my mobile. It wasn't until the second day that I suddenly felt homesick. Anyway, I'll get back on that later. In the car, on the way to KMM.         On the very first day, we went to KMM around 10 in the morning and the traffic was horrible. There were so~ many people there. Oh well, everyone from the whole peninsular Malaysia went there, so of course, there were thousands of people.           The registration process went kinda well. There wasn't any big trouble on the way. My family left me there around 3 in the evening. By the way, my dorm block i...
