| Sakamichi no Apollon (Kids on the Slope) Coming-of-age, music, romance I watched the anime version on Hulu and it was really a nice little series. The characters are likeable and the music's great, which is no suprise considering it was composed by Yoko Kanno (Cowboy Bebop, Wolf's Rain, Ghost in the Shell e.t.c.). The series was released earlier last year and ran from April- June, with a total of 12 episodes. The story takes place in 1966 Japan and focuses mainly on Kaoru Nishimi and the relationships he forms with Sentaro Kawabuchi and Ritsuko Mukae. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kids_on_the_Slope |

| I love Kimi wa Pet and Kuragehime ^_^ As for Ohoku and Hotaru no Hikari, they both seem like good series. I'll have to check them out sometime. |
| I definitely recommend watching Usagi Drop to everyone, even all the guys. I know several guys that absolutely loved usagi drop! It's such a cute story that keeps you interested. Seriously, if you haven't watched it, you need to! |

DROP WHAT YOU'RE DOING AND GO WATCH USAGI DROP. You guys were right. I finally got around to finishing Usagi Drop and it was adorable! I wish I would've watched it sooner, thanks for the recommendations =) |
| It's been a while since I've read a good manga. Does anybody know of a decent series that's been released recently? |
| Not too recent (2010), but how about Annarasumanara? It is Manwha though, not sure if that is a deal breaker. No matter what, I say give it a chance - it is not only an excellent josei title, but also perception changing. It really makes you think about life. |
Divina said: I've only made it to the 5th chapter, but I'm really enjoying it so far. I love the artwork! Especially the character designs. That one guy's neck though... Heheh. I'm guessing that gets explained later on. I'm going to try to finish it soon. Thanks for recommendation!Not too recent (2010), but how about Annarasumanara?

| Does anyone know a decent serie like Cheese in the Trap? |
