True story, this happened when I was at my sister's cafe. I'm so behind with my anime and manga updates. There's just so many of them, I can't keep up! Even the really good ones.
The only manga I'm following right now is Yotsuba (currently owning its book up to volume 8, will buy more).
Lately, I'm more into watching cartoons and reading webcomics. Heck, I'm also rewatching Chip n' Dale Rescue Rangers.
I know what's that like. I was at Fancon 2011 and I cosplayed as Sango from InuYasha and only three people (who weren't in my group) knew who I was. when others asked who I was and I told them it was "who?" "never heard of that one" or "was it a CGI?"
