rionaleonhart: final fantasy x-2: the sun is rising, yuna looks to the future. (don't cross me)
I've started reading the Full Moon manga, perhaps inevitably, and I'm enjoying it a lot! Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] yumiboo and [personal profile] john_egbert for mentioning the manga to me; it might not have occurred to me to check it out otherwise. (The title has been rendered as Full Moon o Sagashite in localisation, rather than Full Moon wo Sagashite, but I'm already used to writing the latter, so I suppose I'll stick to it.)

The manga is adorable and fun and doesn't seem to have the same pacing issues as the anime, but the anime did make some changes that I actually prefer. I'm going to talk quickly about those changes here. I'm only up to the fourth chapter of the manga but have seen the entire anime.


Differences between the Full Moon wo Sagashite anime and manga, or 'why I'm glad I watched the anime first'. )


In conclusion: I love Mitsuki/Takuto as a pairing in the anime to tiny, tiny pieces, but in the manga I'm a little dubious about it. We'll see, though!
