Ha!!!! This has been a long post. Writing reviews and synopsis is the most difficult thing I have ever done. Though I enjoyed writing most of the synopsis but for few it was a boring task to do. Following is the list of 13 Manga that I recommend you to read, if you have not already (Of course, I have read them). All of these manga are unique in themselves and are worth reading. I have included my short review for all of them followed by the plot. Enjoy!!!
Five Manga based Anime That You Should Watch
One year ago I was strong believer of the pseudo-fact that cartoons and animated media are for kids. There are many who believe in this pseudo-fact. Somehow, I started watching Detroit Metal City, anticipating that I will regret watching it. But, luckily it was just opposite. DMC became the first anime I watched and it was followed by death-note, Naruto, Bleach and many others. My point? Every animated movie or TV-series is not (only) for kids. There are many which explicitly target mature viewers.
This is the list of five Anime series based on corresponding Manga Series that everybody should give a try (trying to be a bit diplomatic here. should be read as must-watch).
Korean Romantic Movies You Should Watch Part I
I started watching Korean Movies/Drama more than two years ago. My first K-Movie was Innocent Steps. It was the best romantic movie that I had ever watched and I loved the lead actress’ role. This motivated me to watch some more movies featuring the same actress. I watched them and before I knew I became fan of K-movies. Now, I have watched over 100 K-Movies, some good and some not-so-good.
It is not possible for me to include (and probably for you to follow) in this post, all the good movies I have watched. Hence, this is the First Part of Must-Watch Korean Romantic Movies. The second part will follow shortly.
So here goes the list of first 16 K-Romantic-Movies that I enjoyed watching.
