Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
- Grab your current read
- Open to a random page
- Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
- BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
- Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!
Another Manga for my Teaser Tuesday … I kanda hope to see other Manga teaser but mine, but it seems that I am still the only one 😦 For those who don’t know what Manga is; Manga is Japanese Graphic Novel or Comic.
Today’s teaser is by the ‘Stephen King’ of Manga world (at least that’s how I look at her), Chie Watari, the title is Yuganda Kishi or Loyal Guardian.
This is my bilingual Manga, I read the Japanese one and then the Indonesian one (translated) so that I can find my mistake in translating it.
My teaser comes from page 19
I am too busy to erase the text and change it into English, so I give the snapshot of the page and write the translation below.
“How could he possibly know what I like? I have never told him about it.
If I think of Usami’s heavy stare, somehow I have this uncomfortable feeling”
That’s unique and fascinating…
Here’s mine:
Interesting teaser. I’ve been meaning to read a graphic novel. I want to try a new genre. I hope you’re enjoying it!
I’m enjoying it a lot 🙂 ..this is a re-read, I forgot how many times I have read it.
I’m going to make a lot of Manga reviews on July.
I’ve never read any Manga – this is an interesting teaser. Mine is: http://bookreviews.me.uk/teaser-tuesday-29th-june/
You should try it 🙂 I’ve been reading manga for 20years now.
I have never heard of this series or the mangaka before. Thanks!
Actually, this isn’t a series, its a 1 volume manga. The mangaka is quite old, I’m not surprise if many people don’t know about her anymore
I love it! But then, I love manga.
I need to check out Manga books!
