MeruPuri v1 Reviewed on Anime on DVD

MeruPuri (The Marchen Prince) v1 on Anime on DVD:

Everything reads smoothly and the adaptation here does a really nice job conveying Aram's mix of haughty attitude and childish mannerisms. I didn’t notice any major errors, and only noticed one localization (a unit of measurement changed from a meter to three feet). Honorifics have been retained, which was a nice surprise as they usually aren’t included in VIZ titles. As per usual VIZ has translated the SFX using the overlay method with a variety of fonts and styles, and overall look really good.

Forum thread here.

Book Scan

Eric points out:

Its first week in stores, Sensual Phrase v11 landed at number 43 on the Top 50 best selling graphic novel list. Let's see how it does next week... If you remember, the previous volume climbed to number 14.

Go, baby -- go!

Anime Fringe Reviews Sensual Phrase Volume 8

http://www.animefringe.com/magazine/2005/12/short/02.php

The good stuff:

"In all fairness, the sex scenes aren’t really as hot as the dialogue that is spoken leading up to them."

And this:

"The adaptation is one of VIZ Media’s best-written works out there."

Now how do I turn all these good reviews into more work, hm?

Thanks for the pointer, Eric.
