This is my last post on Shojolover, but not my last post on wordpress. I have a new site called Bad Romance. It’s going to focus on reviews of really bad shojo mangas.

It’s been fun, but ever since November I haven’t really been  interested in watching the currently airing shows, and have not really blogged anything for Shojolover in the last little bit, being more involved in my other fandoms. At first, I considered switching Shojolover to a general fandom blog. However, I decided that lacked cohesion. Than, it hit me. Part of the recent I had not been as interested in blogging shows that I liked was that it was much more boring to write about what I actually enjoyed or at least thought was decent, than to rant and joke about horrible plots, characters, writing or art.

This is what Bad Romance is for. To complain about the less than great series out there, or the arcs that ruin an otherwise great series. To groan about sexcism, to laugh at cheesy romance dialogue, to roll our eyes at stupid heroines.

I still might review good manga from time to time-recently I fell in love with Ooku, Shugo Chara Encore is slowly redeeming the last arc of SC, and the current arc of Skip Beat is awesome (but that’s par for the course for Skip Beat).

I’ll miss this blog. I have a lot of good memories, and have met a lot of awesome people through it. Thank you for reading Shojolover. I hope you will enjoy Bad Romance as well.
