Any other Manga readers here?

Anyone else enjoy a good manga? Some of my favs are Nausicaa, Dragonball, Astro Boy, CCS, Ranma, Urusei Yatsura, and Gundam 0079

I read Shonen Jump, I like it, but I'd never call myself an otaku or anything like that.

[Guest tSlater]

I like manga. Unfortunately due to income issues i don't usually get to spend much on it. All I ever get is Shonen Jump and the Cowboy Bebop manga set (not Shooting Star, the other one But yes I WANT Shooting STar as well.)

 

I've borrowed a few from a friend before, both were Shoujo but it was still good. Revolutionary Girl Utena and Fushigi Yuugi. I've also downloaded a few chapters of CCS and a few volumes of Love Hina.

 

BTW, Naibus: Yugioh kicks ass! at least the manga does. I hate how 4kids censored the hell out of the anime. <.<

[AlwaysPissedOff 0]

Eh, just just the subs for Yu-Gi-Oh! instead of watching the dub. And, to be honest, the dub doesn't bother me that much(aside from changing the rules of the duels almost every season), especially the Virtual World/Noa Arc that's been pretty well dubbed, IMHO.

 

As for the manga I read:

 

Rurouni Kenshin, SJ magazine(might as well lump them all into one), Inuyasha, getting Trigun, Ranma 1/2, Love Hina, and CB when I get paid

[Guest tSlater]

I'm stuck with a dial-up connection, so no subbed episodes for me. <.< But yeah I agree that the Noa's Arc storyline is much better than previous seasons.

[AlwaysPissedOff 0]

Yeah, I have dial-up too, so I'm reduced to buying the subs. Not too bad, I suppose.

[Renegade 0]

I didnt used to but I've been reading more. Last thing I read was all 26 volumes of fan translated Kenshin.

[Guest tSlater]

Where do you buy them at? I haven't been able to find them =/

just Uzumaki. In the Those Who Hunt Elves manga, do they actually explain them getting there, or do they just start in the middle like the show?

Well it starts in the 2nd episode....alot of slite changes....especially the part where the first spell fragment is

 

Then it goes into a miscallanious story, the introduction of Mikay then the elf wearing the armour episode. It's 5 chapters in all but it's funny as Hell, bad art though.

that's an understatement lol

[Guest Salacious Crumb]

I read Dragonball until very recently. Income issues has made me have to cut back heavily on comic books.

[Renegade 0]

To anyone thats read the Trigun manga (I'm up to vol 2 of maximum) I was wondering whats your opinion on it.

Thank you so much.

I can always go for a good Chobits on a rainy day.

[Special K 0]

Blade of the immortal owns all in terms of art. Helps that it has a good story. Shirow's Ghost in the Shell and Appleseed are great, though VERY wordy.

 

Nausicaa is pretty great.

 

I also bought Ranma.5 on CD. I know it's wron, but I already bought enough Ranma anime, and I didn't want to spend like, 500 dollars on it. It's a great fun read.

[Renegade 0]

Picked up a volume of Berserk. Not a big fan of fantasy style manga but I'll see how this goes.

[thuganomics 0]

I read Shonen Jump monthly.

 

I own most of the Ryoichi Ikegami library: Mai the Pyschic Girl, Crying Freeman, Sanctuary, Strain, Samurai Crusader, Spider-Man Manga; that guy can draw.

 

Otherwise, here's a brief list of things I don't think I saw mentioned:

Banana Fish

Dance Til Tomorrow

Gunsmith Cats

Maison Ikkoku

 

oh, and everyone who loves anime should buy the Robotech novels. They rule.
