How did I got to know Asian comics...

Hello bloggers!

And everyone, how are you?,

as every single time before I wish you are well and healthy, XD

right now I'm somehow happy because yesterday was the last day of classes, but that doesn't mean that is my last day of the semester, which is really sad T_T

I do also watch anime when I should be doing something else

Anyway! Today I'm not really going to introduce another Asian comic, because all the pictures and information I've been collecting is on the stupid mac, right now I'm using my brother's and father's computer ¬,¬

and on Saturday I was checking how many words my computer could write in one minute, and oh! surprise! it wrote approximately from 5 to 8 words per minute, I checked that while trying to leave a message in Facebook at a FB group wall(to do so, it took me 26 minutes :S).

I need to change my computer, and the guarantee is from the US, but it could also be possible to change it here in Mexico as a Best Buy was opened on the past weekend :D

      In this post I'm going to still talk about Asian comics, but not like in the past in which I make a recommendation, xD

instead today I'll talk about myself and how I got fascinated by Asian comics, obviously of how much I like them and how did i got to know they existed :P.

      First of all(before talk about myself), the way most of the people in the Western world get to know the Asian comics is by Anime and Manga(Japanese cartoons and comics). Japanese culture is really advertised by American and European TV channels. Here in Latin America the Japanese stuff come from the US(and maybe from Canada), if in the US something results being popular, it does come to Mexico or Colombia(countries in which TV stations make the translations/dubbed) and then to the rest of Latin America. (I don't know the situation in Europe.)

Shugo Kyara!(guardian character). Amu and Ikuto

      Obviously that's the way I got to know Asian comics. In my life, when I was younger(12 years), I usually spent time in the internet chatting on MSN or watching videos on YouTube. Once I was watching a video of Winx Club there(I was a huge fan on winx), and in the video it have scenes of Sailor Moon, Tokyo Mew Mew(Mew Mew Power), Mermaid Melody(PichiPichiPitch), Winx Club, and Shugo Chara! *o*

I had already known of all those animes and I didn't care for anything except Winx Club, but Shugo Chara! caught my attention and I started to search for more videos of shugo chara on YouTube and tried to watch the anime. When I found the first episode subtitled, I watched it, and I loved it. From there I started to watch anime, knowing it was Japanese Cartoon and not a "Chinese cartoon" as everybody would call it in Mexico(here anybody or anything that have Asiatic features or characteristics is called "Chinese"). :B

Death Note manga

      A year passed until I started to watch another anime, which is really popular, but I actually think it sucks, NARUTO. I started to watch it on summer when I was 13 when my brother was watching TV, I was passing by and found it interesting. Some months passed until I started to watch more anime, it was when I was finishing my first year of middle or secondary school and I discovered I had a cousin which was otaku, but with whom I never talked with. She introduced me to this world by recommending me more animes to watch: CLANNAD, Rosario+Vampire, Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles(which two years later she told me to never read :/ ), and many others.

As time passed I watched those animes she recommended me, and obviously I started to watch more by my own way. I got somehow caught and becoming more interested in those, as Japanese anime stories weren't as repetitive as Mexican stories, not even in love, and those didn't always have a happy ending(some were more realist). ^_^

      I didn't started to read manga until the next year, in which by May(I think so), I was watching NARUTO Shippuden, and I found most of the anime was a filler, so I started for search for the original story in the manga, and that's how I just started to read to know more about NARUTO, and also because the manga had more episodes than the anime.

The Sexy Simpleton Manhwa

Sometime later I found some manga webpages(which some are listed at the very bottom of this blog) and started to read some mangas of the animes I watched first, as Rosario+Vampire(I usually call it by its original name, Rosario to Banpaia). From there I started to read more and more mangas, until it came the moment in which I didn't like to watch animes anymore, in the same way I preferred to read many books instead of watching movies or TV. :D

It was when I was 15 I found the existence of Korean comics, in which I did also got fascinated, the first story I read was Love in the Mask, it was in the HOT section of most manga webpages and the picture and summary make it looks interesting. As in manga, I started to read manhwas in that way until I discovered more and more. Some mangas and manhwas were recommended to me by school friends whom I didn't knew they liked to read Asian comics, and watch anime. :X

      The first time I read a manhua was briefly described in Knight Princess post, because it was the first time I read a manhua because I thought it was from a Japanese mangaka whose stories I liked, and I discovered it was really Chinese until I read the name of the author. This happened when I was in second semester of High School.

      Right now, I'd read many stories, still reading some ongoing series, and have in waiting list many others. All this began four years ago, and I wonder why I feel like it happens way much time. I started with Shugo Chara! when it was October in my first Middle School year, now I'm almost 17 and finishing my 3rd High School semester. :)

3:00 am Danger Zone Manga

      But anyway, that's how life is. I wish you had liked to read my story. Maybe other time I'll publish some social conflicts most of the fanatics to Asian culture face with society, the most problematic is Parents and Friends(in which you discover who really is and who really is not your friend, and who does easily accept it, and who not).

Thanks for reading. have a nice weekend, I wish you had liked the post, GBU, goodbye.

(Sorry if something that's written in the post doesn't make sense in English, I'm still learning, xD).

PS: People, don't stop eating or making your chores for reading. It is not good for your health. I'm saying this because I'd done this while reading some really interesting mangas and manhwas. .-.
