Comments on: Yaoi Review: Say Please by Kano Miyamoto http://www.yaoi911.com/yaoi-review-say-please-by-kano-miyamoto/ For all your Yaoi emergencies...

(Is it a bug or a new feature of the upgrade I just did? Hmmm, maybe it's because of the multiple Web sites in your comment? Guess I'll need to find out!) Anyway, I'm really glad you like the layout of my reviews and find them straightforward. That's just what I'm going for. I respect those reviewers who are able to give letter grades to books, but for me, I find it much more useful to look at a potential buy with those categories in mind. I'm not sure I could give another creator a letter grade on their work, anyway... ::blush:: Please let me know what you think of <em>Say Please</em> once you've read it (and [from the "duplicate" comment] it sounds like if you like it, you'll buy it, so good on you!). I will keep an eye out for "Escape" if you feel it's one of her stronger works -- thanks for the rec! And hey, hope you enjoyed that toast!

Please let me know what you think of Say Please once you’ve read it (and [from the "duplicate" comment] it sounds like if you like it, you’ll buy it, so good on you!). I will keep an eye out for “Escape” if you feel it’s one of her stronger works — thanks for the rec!

And hey, hope you enjoyed that toast!

So, i apologize in advance if another comment, similar to this one shows up somewhere.) I like the way you lay out your reviews with straightforward categories. It makes for easy reading that is pleasurable and understandable. Too often, I get lost in other reviewer's stream-of-consciousness styles of writing. (I have enough trouble with my own.) Your review was adept at pinpointing info that i would care about. And, after reading a work by the same mangaka, we seem to be on the same page. Inspired by you, I set out to check into Kano Miyamoto, albeit in scanlation form since you advise no hard earn cash being put down. I enjoyed ' <a href="http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=15746" rel="nofollow">Escape</a>,' a one-shot scanlated by <a href="http://www.vicesndevices.net/" rel="nofollow">Vices and Devices</a>. Although I had my reservations about the ending, I rated it 8.5 out of 10. I think she has a lot of potential. Thanks for the great reading material while having my coffee and toast. Waaaay better than a morning newspaper.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('243','ButterflyFomori'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('243','ButterflyFomori','(I just made a comment similar to the one below, and it didn\'t go through: most likely a user error.
