Found in Translation - World Embryo

Just a quick drabble to the World Embryo fans. If you're wondering on what the title in chapter 14 says, I recently downloaded mIRC and then spoke to one of the mods asking for the translation and this is what 'he' says:

"From Hand to Hand"

So there you go. Big thanks to -Asakura- from the M7 mIRC channel for answering the question. Now, if you excuse me, I'm 'going to bishie-hunt down' Riku and meddle with his 'ears'. *Turns an evil grin*

Must Be Seeing Double

Yes, you read that right. I was going to the alternative called the 'Internet', where I find something surprising similar to the characters from World Embryo.

Takao (World Embryo) and K' (King of Fighters series)

Whoa! Takao does ressemble K', in terms of hair style, except K' uses fists and Takao uses a katana...and there's something not human about him. You want proof, go and check below for these screenshots and decide for yourself.




Riku Amami - Kanshu form (World Embryo) and Allen Walker (D. Gray Man or Something)

Someone mentioned that Kanshu Riku looks like that bloke, Allen Walker and I dismissed at first. Until I went to the D. Gray Man fansite and found I was wrong. My God, he DOES look similar to Allen! Except, I don't think Riku would be a good Exorcist, lol.



Youhei Takabe (World Embryo) and Kaede (Last Blade series)

Choose the blonde haired version of Kaede and you'll see why he looks similar to Youhei.



Nagase (World Embryo) and Reno (Final Fantasy VII and Advent Children)

Oh come on! Don't look at me like that! Someone at the Deviantart.com website thought that not only Nagase looks like the fangirl's favourite Turk, he also act like him, except...Reno didn't die, unlike Nagase, but I'm not going to tell you, since you have to read it for yourself.




Riku Amami - Human Form (World Embryo) and Harry Potter (Harry Potter series)

Last, but not least (well for the male part. Dammit! I can't find the female lookalike), is that before Riku became Kanshu, his human form really looks like the Wizard-in-training boy, as told by my sister. At first, I thought she was joking, but boy was I wrong...



And there you have it, a shortlist of the World Embryo lookalikes that I've found out. Okay, I would have add Kanzaki and Rude to the list, but somehow Rude's not some head of the Turks (it's Tseng!). If you've got any more lookalikes, including the female characters of course, just let me know. Well, ciao for now!

Cannot Stop Reading

Damn you Daisuke Moriyama (in a good way ^_^)! Because of reading too much World Embryo, I am now somehow attracted to the main protagonist, Riku Amami, because not only his characterisation, but his looks. By the time I got into chapter 6, where...

*SPOILER! Highlight it, either at your own risk or you already read* Riku was killed by a Kanshu after he was free and barely managed to keep his memory from losing by the enemy, but then got resurrected from Neene's mysterious powers, to which he becomes a Kanshu himself. Only except, unlike the unlucky ones that become Kanshu, Riku (now in Kanshu mode) killed the bloody lot and after regaining his senses, in particular thanks to his childhood friend and Jinki User, Youhei; he was captured...and yet after that, he was still in his Kanshu form, but now he can control himself. Man, I never he would turn out to be so hot and goodlooking! *Drools at Kanshu Riku. A lot.* *END SPOILER*

And now, becuase of the bloody tension he's left at 13, I can't wait for a bloody month to download the scanlation and read. And then re-read. And then re-re-read. And then, etc. Only a couple of days to go. Dammit. >_< Quote of the moment - "What is it...?(Mesh?)" - Riku Amami from Daisuke Morimaya's excellent latest manga, World Embryo.
