In My Own Words:
I was born in '84. I love all kinds of music, favorite band is Garbage. Lover of muscials and manga/anime with good artistry and plots (Ayashi no Ceres, Rurouni Kenshin, Ah! My Goddess, etc.). Favorite movie: none, but I do love Shenandoah, Kill Bill, Lost in Translation. Favorite TV series is Dark Angel. Favorite book is 'The Woman Who Loved Reindeer.' Favorite author: S.J. Rozan.

Favorite author: S.J. Rozan. I'm Chinese-American, born in Florida, living in Wisconsin and going to UCLA in California for college. You can probably tell what kind of personality I have by reading my reviews and my listimania. Oh and, I love fantasy, but I'm also very picky in a way so it's hard to describe what I would like or hate in a story.

This final book in the Dark Angel trilogy is very true to the characters on the show. Max Allan Collins did a GREAT job in capturing each character's personality and humor.

This artbook is GORGEOUS! Yu Watase is such a talented artist and storyteller, it's so great to just have all the art from my favorite manga series in one book.

Yay!! I saw this when the national tour came around to the Weidner Center in Wisconsin a couple years ago...it was a jaw-dropping experience. It became my favorite musical, more so than Phantom, Les Miz, Aida, Rent, you get the idea. There's just something about it. I'll tell you what it is: the story, the music, the talent, the emotion, the music, the music, the music, and....the music. I love the music!! And much more so when the actors can sing it! And sing it well! And the cast for this DVD did, for the most part. I was afraid to watch this DVD, because I knew I had to compare it to the original Broadway cast recording, and the performance I saw, but I was pleasantly surprised… Read more
