Yesterday, in the Follow Friday post, I answered two questions, one of them was: “what character in a book would you most like to date?” That made me think about a thing… Does anyone of you ever had a crush for a Manga character? I read them and my faves are “Nana” and “Vampire Knight”. So, I asked myself what if Ren Honjo and Kaname Kuran were real? Well, the answer is pretty simple, I would date Ren (moooore than once :P) and then I’ll spend the eternity with Kaname!! LOL
Seriously, if you think about it you realize that the characters of a Manga can have all the charming characteristics of our faves in a book, the only difference is that to our eyes one can appear more ‘realistic’ than the other. In my opinion that’s because when we read a book, even if we know the story is not real (unfortunately, huh?), we tend to look at them like flesh and bones, vice versa it can be a strange thing to do ’cause they’re showed to us like illustrations and for that our brain automatically recognizes them like fiction.
But in the end even a book is fiction…
Then why a girl couldn’t dream about a personal hero like Kaname, don’t you agree? ๐

I completely agree with you, although my choices are completely different (as you know :P)…
Vampire Knight: Zero Kiryu
Nana: Takumi
And I'd like to add one more, too… Although I find the drawings slightly different from the ones I'm used to, I find pretty interesting Kyo from Black Bird. What do you guys think?
Great choices!! ๐
I like Black Bird, too (thanks to you! :)) and I think I know "the potential" you see in Kyo… LOL Seriously, he's very funny! xD

Welcome to the club, Clary! ๐
I know many titles but I haven't read them so, it's difficult for me to tell you which one pick up… But with "Vampire Knight" I know for sure it's a great choice and about "Black Bird", it's a Manga about Demons, if you're into them too like vampires I think you'll like it! It's a funny reading and "Vampire Knight" is something totally exciting!! I'd say go for them both!! ;D
If I read something else and I find it interesting I'll surely let you know!
Thanks for stopping by and following me!!

I love Kaname! I also love Kyo in Fruits Basket.
