Those statues are sexy. How do you buy them?

ShoePlayLisa: only two vids thus far, but well worth a watch.

Howdy. You did point out that one loss on Mawaru Penguindrum, and I found some more when watching the series (I do like it for how creative the story is and how good the animation is).
In episode 3, Ringo is spying on the person she's following in his house. When she discovers another woman there, she's forced to flee the scene without her shoes (as this is Japan, one must take them off before they come in). Near the end of the episode, she's trudging home in her socks.
The next episode has the same woman make an offhand remark about throwing out her shoes at the park. This first one is kind of cheating, but I've got another one.
In episode 4, near the end (I don't know the exact time since I wasn't looking at the loading bar); a woman gets pushed down the stairs at the train station, and one of her heels falls off. They are red heels even; and we got a good shot of her shoeless foot (she seems to be wearing the pantyhose that you fellows go crazy for, lifestyle shoes and socks are fine with me).
If I didn't know better, the folks making the show seem to have something for stocking feet; as the fifth episode features Shoma running out in the rain in his socks in both the past and present; as well as the third episode featuring both a good shot on Ringo's dirty socks walking home and Kanba shoving his foot in Shoma's face when they break into Ringo's apartment.
I also have a suggestion of maybe backing up the dead links that are picking up in the earlier sections of the thread. For instance, the Escaflowne and Claymore links got taken down due to copyright or the uploaders closing their account.

Hello everyone, and Merry Christmas.
About that Like a Cinderella manga that was mentioned a few posts ago, I've found a scanlation of the second chapter.

I'm not sure if there are more, but if there are, it's being translated very slowly. It actually seems pretty nice.

Already posted; from what I remember, all but one chapter has been translated, but only two of the whole package are about the show switching.

This three volume set is a liberal (
very liberal) re-interpretation of the story. In this one, the "silver shoes" are a pair of enchanted boots with very odd powers (as far as I can tell, the main one being that, whenever dorothy touches someone with one, whatever magic or enchantments they may have on them are dispelled.).
ALL of the volumes have at least one or two panels of Dorothy with one boot (or both) off for varios reasons. Since the power is in the boots themselves, there are a lot of cases where she throws one of them to one of her companions so they can touch it to something to break the spell on it. There is also the fact that, unlike the canon book silver shoes (which are basically indestrucable) the boots in this manga wear out at an alarming rate, so she has to remove them for repairs quite freqently. This culinates in the third book in one of the boots actually tearing down the side and falling off her foot during an escape, and dorothy walking around in one boot for about 3-4 chapters (which probably beats that other manga record mentioned earlier).
Unfortunately I can't put up any scans of this, these mangas are very fat (fatter in fact than most paperback books) and have very stiff spines, so I can't get them open enough to get a good scan/picture. I can't even give page references (they aren't paginated). But maybe they are up on one of the manga reading sites, and you can browse them there (one warning, some parts do get a little adult)

Hard to say. She cartainly wears
something under them, either stockings or socks, since you can't see her toes (well except for one bit in the middle of 2, when she hurts her foot and it's bandaged). However my money would be on socks, or, if they are stockings, they are stockings in the length sense (remember for a long while, the actual cut off between socks and stockings wasn't how thin they were, it was how long they were [socks, below your knees, stockings above) i.e. thick (probably cotton or wool) and not sheer

Thanks for the info. I do want to check this one out. I wonder if they sell it in chinatown.

Chinatown no, these are Japanese mangas (and pretty specialist ones at that, i.e. not a major publisher). I'll PM you with my advice on how to get them.
Posted by Steven Of Alabasta on 12-27-2012 at03:27:
I'm looking for the third chapter, and I have had no luck in the matter. Anyone know where I can find it? I'd like to see more of the story.
