So, I am building a manga cult in my office. It wasn't intentional, but it kind of snowballed. It started off with just lending books to one of my co-workers. Her request, anything that has a little romance in it. That is not hard, it pretty much only cuts out some of the sports manga and a few others. After reading a few, she added the addendum that she didn't want to read any series that was unfinished. Also not a problem as I have plenty that are done.
Second co-worker saw me hand a stack to first co-worker and mentioned that she once saw an anime called "Ranma 1/2" and did I have anything like that she could borrow? I told her I had had the manga of Ranma 1/2, so lent her that. The "The Wallflower", then a couple others.. and now she's on Midori Days. Coworker's husband, who also works at the bank but for another business unit, has started to read the books she's bringing home and wants more. He's requested GTO. (Good choice!)
Third coworker has listened to me and coworkers 1, 2 and coworker's spouse talking about manga and wants to try it. So tonight I'm picking out a new completed series for co-worker one (I'm thinking Kare Kano, romance and completed), bringing back The Wallflower for Coworkers husband because he didn't get to finish what I'd lent to his wife before she brought it back before bringing in GTO. And I have to pick out something for coworker 3 and am rather stumped. What do you pick out for a guy who's favorite tv shows are "Desperate Housewives," "Dexter" and "Heroes?"
