Fangirl-ness Pt1

I should be studying for the chap11 geo test, but... let's just say studying was never my thing. ;P
Here I will be blabbing about my ongoing series. (in order by most recent updates)

1 Houou Gakuen Misoragumi:
Only 7 chappies out so far, but even so, very cool. :D I like this because this isn't so shoujo-y. No cliche we-bumped-into-each-other scenes, no stupid and weird blushing, no frantic and dramatic lovey-dovey thoughts. Shoujo is nice, but I might actually like this better. The only complaint for this is that this involves heterophobia, and this isn't doing much to the plot because it still lacks depth. I'll guess we'll wait and see... Of course, this is categorized as LGBT Character in a Non-Yaoi/Yuri Manga. I would never be caught dead reading yaoi/yuri, but I'm SURE the main character is going to convert in a ten or so chaps. >:DDDD By then I would've prepared myself enough for the incoming shoujo-ness. Masochists, sadists... UFUFUFUFU. * v *

2 Fly High:
Erm... Definitely not one of my favorites. Readable, bearable, but I can't really say I like it. This one lacks depth as well. The main character is totally happy-go-lucky and just goes on blabbing about how she's going to make 7th grade the happiest year for the students blahblahblah. Not to mention, how is it friggen possible for a bunch of 8th graders to rebel like that? Agh. *shudders* And of course, very predictable. She's gonna fall for the bad boy. DOI. The only thing keeping me reading is the love triangle. XD

3 Barajou no Kiss:
One of my new favorites. Love polygons, now that's new. :O And bishies. YAYAYAY. Bishies only exist through good art, so this is a must. Definitely needs more depth, and currently hoping the mangaka will recover from her broken ankle soon! Must read about the new development of orange and lime roses! MUSTMUSTMUST! OLALALALALA.

4 Suki-tte Ii na yo:
If you don't like smut, don't read this one. This isn't what the rating says it is, but it definitely is a step above your usual shoujo, and maybe even josei ('cause afterall, the only difference b/w josei and shoujo is swear words). The art style is a bit like Five, but it's MUCHMUCH better, and the characters are actually skinny, unlike most smuts. It has some depth, but I'm hoping for some more character development. Not much atm; gonna keep reading before I decided whether I like it or not.

5 Watashi ni XX Shinasai:
There were some character developements... Art is nice, love triangle developed, but... Eh, I don't know. It interests me, but the MC is such a n00b at this--its weird seeing her blush and wonder why her "chest hurts". Jeolousy. DOI. A couple chapters have come out now, but Nagareboshi is a bit slow, so...
