I know you’ve all been impatiently waiting so here it is. But before I go into it I have to first talk trash about Kinokuniya and Japanese racism since it is relevant to me purchasing this book. As you guys know Shugo Chara has Special Edition volumes that come out along with every normal edition when a Shugo Chara volume is released. Kinokuniya only had 2 volume 6’s sitting out period, neither of which was the SE. I asked a lady working there if she could help me find a Special Edition or open up one of the drawers where they keep extra books. She told me “can you please wait” because she seemed in the middle of something. Ok that’s cool I just hung around looked at random How to Draw Manga books while I waited. I then saw her come back but rather than helping me, her attitude went from “Go away white person” to “Hi I’d love to help you find it” when she decide to help a random Japanese family who had come upstairs during the time I waited…and basically ignoring my existence.

It’s really amusing how the back of the package has these cute instructions. I mean it makes it seem like the one making the pancakes is some 10 year old. The frying pan says “juu~~” and the pancake is saying “puupuu” in one of the instruction panels. The good thing though, if you can’t read Japanese, they prominently affixed an English instruction label for a swift and easy way to make your hotcakes. Continue Reading »
