Today's Episode
Now, I'm sure a few of our more manly readers are sitting there thinking, "wtf? What's this girly shoujo series sitting on my screen? She doesn't look very moe at all!" Well, guys, let me tell you that this not-so-moe girl is a badass in her own right-- not the sword-swinging or mech-piloting kind, but the kind who learns to take no prisoners and give it her all! (You'll find that this is a theme for us right now.)
And if that doesn't convince you, then here's a fanboy tidbit that might help: the heroine is voiced by Marina Inoue, who also plays Yoko, Alicia, and Chiri Kitsu. Now, sit down and watch!
I'll give it a go.

Oh no! Not....not....the red ink! *shrieks*
Heehee, I guess I get a little paranoid about my readers. My content usually tends to skew more towards male readers (we're currently 62% male 38% female), so I'm always worried that too much pink sparkly stuff will scare them off, which I'd hate because Skip Beat! is such a great series!
Hmmm, seems this wont play in Safari for me, but Firefox is fine. I'll have to look into that.
I think she was kind of prettier before the cut/dye. Well, not that it was a bad move, but I thought she already looked appealing.
On a less philosophical note, they made it clear that her appearance was pretty plain pre-makeover, even if she was also drawn in an appealing fashion according to anime standards. Apparently even Kyoko realizes that in show biz you need to have a cool look, even if she didn't figure out that you also have to, like, want to do something entertaining. ^_^
Be a little more open minded. I thought it was actually pretty funny. Though I thing once we get through these expository bits we'll be better off.
That's TOTALLY different.
>_>
edit: this show is great so far. i can actually understand it, it's funny, the main character is cute and i can actually watch it at a pace, rather than watch 24 episodes in 2 days.
i'm looking forward to more!

Hmmmmmm, you have a way with words you do Gia. Fine fine, she did seem pretty good. The idea behind trying to beat Sho is getting my competitive side going again, although that may be Saki withdrawal symptoms kicking in.
I've got at least an essay, maybe two, to offer up once Skip Beat! is over (or at least very well underway), but I don't want to talk too much so I don't influence peoples' expectations unduly or spoil things ^_^
That's my guess anyway.
