I’m surprised that Powell’s doesn’t have it.

its funny how some free fansubs do a better job than paid licensing and distro businesses. i just wanted to point that out. it kinda sparked my interest a bit since emma has great quality animes that were fansubbed, along with the mangas. and you see crappy subbing companies making money. i LUV romance anime/mangas. thoguth i am a guy, i not afraid to admit it. its way better than animes that dont go anywhere.

I actually haven’t seen the anime, so I can’t make a comparison recommendation! What I can say is that the manga stands on it’s own and is quite enjoyable. Also, you won’t have wait for the next installment - there’s 7 volumes out right now. ;)

Hahaha, well, I wouldn’t say it’s impossible. :D

What coincidental timing! I bought the first DVD of Emma literally DAYS ago! I am terribly excited and can’t wait for the next DVD, but I wonder - would you recommend the manga over the anime?

Wonderful, another romantic, without overdoing it, story. I, too, will have to check out the anime, slow-paced or not. Hopefully it isn’t a disappointment; I really enjoy the way each of the characters has a unique personality (aside from those silly Grace “fangirls”!).

Perhaps, though, it is too much to hope for a guy acting like Mr. William outside of the Victorian era. ;)

Nice review. This is the first I’ve heard of Emma. I’m going to have to check it out. Thanks for the review. ^__^

Hey Shannon! :D Hah, glad I could help - that handbook is really useful! There’s another book around that goes so far as to list salaries according to what major city you’re near, but I forget what it’s called.

I hope you start getting paid what you’re worth! Designers usually get paid peanuts unless they are paid what they ask for, so definitely ask. ;) Design is just now starting to come into it’s own and many major companies are finally opening design departments, but a lot of the older ones just don’t know how to approach it. You can thank companies like Target and Apple for the positive exposure, though.
