Hmm... Makes me wonder... Are these novels available in romanjized japanese, or only in kanji/katakana/hiragana?

If they are available romanjized, I have a project for myself set up between <classified> stuff... :)

this might be not very interesting to some

i forgot to include this info. earlier... we finally get to read about tessa's brother. he looks just like tessa.. white hair, cute, etc.
and i think he is chidori's "secret" bodyguard assigned by the government.. i THINK

because he appears when chidori is in danger and he seems to be in love with her.. as soon as i finish the book i will find out i guess.. till then.. byebye..

I've seen pictures of Tessa's dear brother.

Yes, he is VERY interesting to me. XD

Yeah I have a pic or two or him. But his connection to Chidori is an intersting one, so keep us (or me anyways) posted~!

ok.. hello everyone... its been awhile.. i just got back from shanghai.. what an interesting place.. anyway, i am sure you are more interested in FMP than my trip to shanghai...

few info.

1. sagara is "ordered" to come back ... tessa in a way tells him to say goodbye to chidori.. and he comes back from tokyo (after a haircut by chidori.. really cute incident). tessa asks him if he said good-bye to chidori and sagara mummbles (well.. answers in a unclear way) and tessa gets quite angry with sagara... (she is so annoying :-x ) and they fight..
2. the haircut incident... chidori takes him to a salon and he wonders why its necessary to get a haircut... after his ususal trouble-making behaviour they get kicked out... so chidori offers to give him a hair cut. she asks him about "the other" bodyguard and him being a decoy.. they talk cozily for awhile.. after the haircut sagara thanks chidori and he says.."next time i will give you a haircut" (to express his gratitude

) and she replies "zettai, yada!!"
3. (novel vol.9) tessa's brother is quite an interesting character.. his name is lena-do (i am sure its Leonardo) he appears in a nick of time to save chidori.. (she is looking for sagara on her own...) he is very handsome and charming (?). he has feelings for chidori.. and he calls sagara "your boyfriend".. but that doesn't stop him from kissing chidori...(and she slaps him) and he tells chidori that he likes her strength (strong character) after he saves her.. he disappears... quite heroic

4. during his mission, sagara wonders about "peace"... to him peace meant Jindai High School, chidori, his life in tokyo, ... and he thinks about going back.. he wants to go back... but the reality hits him.. he no longer has any reasons to go back to tokyo... no mission, no place to live, no purposes... .. and then he gets quite depressed...

well.. that's it for today.. i left out minor details.. i plan to post the direct translation of the haircut incident someday (when i find the strength and the time).. i apolgize for not posting enough info.. but i have to work:-( i haven't finished vol. 9 yet . but i plan to.. so that i can go to the next volume.. hopefully..anyway, enjoy everyone

..

Hmm... interesting. If only Japanese books were readily available over here. I had to go through hell (not as bad as Tau-week though

) just to get the first one, and I'm not even halfway through it yet (My Japanese reading abilities leaves much to be desired

). Well, thanks for the info.

*goes to the local book store and begs/pleads/bribes/threatens the owner to import the later volumes*

Japan, China and Singapore eh? <brag> I've been to all 3 =Þ </brag>

If you ever show up in any of those countries (God forbid, please not Singapore!) Some travel advice:

1.China - The place is pretty friendly and everything is cheap (okay, most things) but whatever you do, do NOT comment on the government, Taiwan, the incident with the EP-3 last year or any political figure. Bad things happen when you do.

2.Japan - I find it funny that you have to slurp your noodles or you're considered rude

. I'll guess you probably know everything else.

3.Singapore - Ah... land of my birth... but enough of that. Whatever you decide to bring along, don't bring chewing gum. It's illegal there (Yes, legal as in they can arrest you), and same with anything capable of causing a big mess. You thought Japan was crazy abit sanitation? Wait until you get over here.

That's just so you don't get yourself busted if you ever visit any of these places. We don't wan't our favorite drill sarge to spend a few months in the infirmary now do we? After all, who would we torment

?
