Adventures in Things I Can't Believe I Spent Money On: Princess Tutu Manga vol. 1

[sic-semper-trex.livejournal.com]

I suffer from a disease which affects approximately 65% of bloggers worldwide. The condition has yet to be named, but its symptoms include an uncontrollable desire to experience potentially terrible media.  We go into this painful experience knowing full well that it can only end in angry tears, willingly ingesting the kind of mind-poison that so many people discover purely by accident and are made more miserable for it. Really, I can't say with total certainty why I do this. For the lolz? Perhaps.

I am a biased bastard. Tread carefully, beware of foul language, and try not to think too much.

manga/scanning question

[yuliee.livejournal.com]

Well, since it's been (unfortunately) brought up again, I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask twice --

Is anyone here equipped with both a Tutu manga purchase and a scanner, and would they be willing to use both to fuel certain nefarious deeds? I ask because I would honestly like to roleplay Mangaverse Edel, well, anywhere, really, but can't find adequate scans. I really should just buy both volumes and do it myself, but I'm not sure I can find them anymore. (... Nor, really, do I want to spend the cash. >_> )

What also baffles me is that I actually looked for scanlations and the like and found nothing, even on the sites that will host scanned legally translated manga. Apparently the series is so terrible nobody will go out of their way to scan it for pirates or otherwise. Which... is hilarious, but I know I've read worse that's been available online, so...

fanart!! (some gender bending doodles + older ahiru)

Hi! The Princess Tutu cast is ridiculously lovable and multishippable, but I myself have a preference for the yuri arrangements (Ahiru/Rue! Ahiru/Edel! Lilie/Pique! Rue/Malen! Ahiru/Freya! Et cetera!) so I created a yuri-specific Tutu comm, tutu_yuri. Come join if you're interested!
