My first instinct in reading two works by the same author is to compare all the characters, even if there really needn't be a comparison. When I first started reading Togashi Yoshihiro's Hunter x Hunter, I think it must have taken me a few volumes before I stopped comparing the quartet of Gon, Killua, Kurapika, and Leorio to Yuu Yuu Hakusho's Yuusuke, Hiei, Kurama, and Kuwabara and just started appreciating them as their own characters. I haven't reached that stage of enlightenment yet in élDLIVE--I'm constantly comparing Katekyou Hitman Reborn's Sawada Tsunayoshi and Sasagawa Kyouko to élDLIVE's Kokonose Chuuta and Sonokata Misuzu (and waiting for a Gokudera Hayato to enter).

In the case of élDLIVE and Reborn, I especially like to rant about the differences in our early introductions to Sonokata and Kyouko.

Sonokata Misuzu (其方 美鈴) v. Sasagawa Kyouko (笹川 京子)!! (Actually it's just an image-heavy rant on Sonokata) )

Okay, so I reeeeeeally love Amano Akira's Katekyou Hitman Reborn, right? I haven't really noticed anything from Amano since the promo artwork / character designs she did for Psycho-Pass, so that's why I was stunned when Amazon sent me an e-mail today to inform me that the fourth volume/"season" of Amano Akira's ēlDLIVE has been released.
