I can't believe it's been an entire year since I last updated!! The busy year seems to have flown by so fast. I am slightly dismayed that I only had like, what, 4 posts and then didn't update. Well! I'll try to be more consistent with my posting... I'm hoping for once a week, but we'll see.
Also I can't believe that I started posting again with an adult romance manga I don't even like... but that's another story.
Happy manga reading! :)

Adaptation of English fiction Silver by Penny Jordan.
Overall, 4/10.

Synopsis (mangafox): Geraldine Francis is the innocent daughter of a wealthy aristocrat. Being sheltered all her life, she is oblivious to her cousin Charles' true intentions when he lures her in and makes her fall hopelessly in love with him. It is only after the murder of her father that she realizes his love was nothing but love for the money and the land that came with her name. She vows revenge, and she throws away her past in order to become "Silver," the perfect woman. With a new face, and a new lease on life, she will turn the tables on the man whom she once loved so that this time, it is he who will be left with nothing.

First Taste: Shounen Oujo by Yukihiro Utako
*First tastes are reviews on manga I have read that have less than 20 chapters scanalated and is still ongoing
Shounen Oujo by Yukihiro Utako
My category: Gender-bending 19th Century Royalty Adventure (okay that's really long but basically only 3 things)
Ongoing. Currently 15 chapters scanalated by Hachimitsu Scans.
(Apparently the series is on hiatus as the author is still working on Uta no Prince-Sama)
Synopsis: In a country where women rule supreme lives a poor but happy boy named Albert. An excursion to the city turns dangerous when he and his friend are abducted by slave traders, and later purchased by a noblewoman's servant. If this wasn't crazy enough, it turns out Albert looks exactly like the noblewoman who purchased him. But she's no ordinary aristocrat. She's a princess! And he's to act as her double from today on!?
