ok... heres juz a small entry =D

began reading Bloody Monday manga and it is actually quite good... the gore level is a little high but the plot is real great =) a hacker takes on a criminal is really a nice setting for the manga...

so heres the plot from wiki:

After a mysterious virus kills off a segment of the Russian population, Fujimaru has been recruited by the PSST (based on the Public Security Intelligence Agency) to find out what happened in Russia when Third-I PSST agents had recovered an unknown memory stick containing files of the incident.

With his father accused of murdering his superior, Fujimaru is driven by the quest to find out the truth behind Bloody Monday.

alrighto and since im bored, here is a little comparison between higurashi and umineko

Higurashi - Umineko

>Violence / gore
shows process and end =X - shows end, hardly show process =/

>Plot
dimensions and virus spreading etc - witches, magic and detective styled

>Furude Rika
priestess (? nt sure) - witch

>"epic" blade
used by Rena - used by Kanon

>Episode style
everyone dies after some epi - currently the same as higurashi

cant think of anymore =X... jus learned that umineko is LINKED to higurashi... T.T im slow...
