Sakura doesn't approve of sucky shojo
Now, shojo manga has its ups and downs. For every epic, awesome cakes series that there is, there is five horrible, cliche or just plain meh series out there. Additionally, otherwise excellent series can have moments of sheer stupidity. However, today’s featured series, is the worst shojo I’ve ever had the (mis)fortune to read.

Fangirl scream in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1~
Though not nearly as fangirling inducing as last week, the second episode in triple digits of Shugo Chara was still good. Satelight does a decent job whenever they’re working with the actual source material. Wish they were nearly as competant when handling their own material *coughlulucough*.
Welcome to a new weekly (possibly every second-weekly) feature for Shojolover. I’ve decided to start this as I don’t give nearly enough love to shojo on this blog despite the title (which I’m considering changing). The secondary purpose of this feature is to highlight shojo series that don’t really get explored/mentioned that much in the blogspere.
With that in mind, here’s the first RSM series, Tsuki No Shippo or Tail of the Moon.
*brought back to live after dying from the amount of epic of this episode*
I’m suddenly not angry at Satelight anymore. Well, okay I much less angry. I still think they’re greedy bastards for making a third season instead of creating their own orignal ending, and saving us all from another year of badly made fillers. But still, usually when they’re actually adapting manga material they rock.
WARNING: This Post Contains More Fangirling Then Usual.

I got tired of looking at my old theme and decided to change it. I also really hated my last banner (even though Seychelles kicks ass).
