Anime!

Lots of good manga referenced in this nice post about manga, including Kizuna:

When I got back into comics, I never had much of an urge to check out the manga, though I was eventually convinced by then-APA-mate Kyle to check out Galaxion. I liked it and it was probably the first bit of American manga I read. It wasn't for another couple years that I picked up my first manga volume. I was trying to learn more about shounen-ai comics and ran across Matt Thorn's website. From there I learned about Banana Fish and decided to check it out when my old comic shop had one of it's big sales.

I liked Banana Fish, but there was nothing else that looked like it on manga shelves so it was the only manga I read until a rep at a Viz comic con booth recommended Adolf. In seeking more shounen-ai, I checked out Kizuna OAVs (I didn't care for them and later had a Kizuna fan express disappointment in the video) and debated if I would be disappointed if I spent money on the Fake OAV (I am so glad that I didn't).
