Myers Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 So I was just curious if anyone was a manga fan on this site I've only been reading manga off and on for about a year now so my list isn't very big, plus I've taken a couple 1-2 months long breaks from manga. What I have read: Death Note - great manga, highly recommend it Dragon Ball - not as many fighting scenes as DBZ but it has some good comedy and just an overall great manga. Dragon Ball Z - Definitely the best manga I've read. If you haven't read DB/DBZ yet, go do it. What I'm currently reading: Ao No Exorcist - it's pretty good, only 38 chapters or so out but it's worth a look into if you don't know what to read. One Piece - I'm only on chapter 260 but I'm going to try to catch up to the most current chapter by January. Good manga What I want to read: Gantz Naruto Bleach Battle Angel Alita So feel free to post what you've read or just discuss your favorite manga 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myers Posted September 28, 2012 Author Share Posted September 28, 2012 I've thought about making one off and on, especially a few months ago when I was a lot more active. What's Princess Resurrection about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 I own some manga, but I haven't read any of them yet. I actually received the first 3 volumes of Gantz a few days ago from Amazon. That place is great! Here is what I own so far. - Gantz - Black Butler - Rurouni Kenshin - Trigun Maximum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirbz Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 I've thought about making one off and on, especially a few months ago when I was a lot more active. What's Princess Resurrection about? i dont remember exactly, i read it about 5 years ago, and only read 2 volumes.... but from what i remember, it was about a vampire who saved a guys life and he became her servant, and they kill werewolves and other monsters. i need to read it again, since i believe its finished now.. or maybe even watch the anime...

OmegaDenmad Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 I'm currently following some weeklies. Medaka Box, Zettai Karen Children and The World God Only Knows. Monthlies I follow are Needless, Genshiken and Billy Bat. And for things that are completed, re-reading Steel Ball Run. Gantz is good if you turn your brain off, but only at some points because there are chapters that are completely pants-on-head retarded and Oku has gone full CGI quality. It looks like a mess in some chapters of the later arcs. And if we are talking about "favorite manga ever"... I have a soft spot for YuYu Hakusho, Hunter x Hunter, Rurouni Kenshin and Slam Dunk. Jojo too of course. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Death Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 How exactly is it turn your brain off good? Well he's probably complaining about the story arc in Phase 2. I haven't gotten there yet, but I've heard a lot of hardcore fans complain that it's pretty damn weird. Here are pics of my collection: Gantz Black Butler Trigun Maximum Rurouni Kenshin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crimson-Cobalt Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 (edited) Haven't watched much anime or read much manga recently. It's just that so much shit is released these days that it's impossible to find anything worthwhile to read or watch amongst all the trash. That said I recently reread the first Ghost in the Shell manga and I've also been reading Crossbone Gundam. In my opinion both are great.

Death Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Lol, yeah, what's with the random volumes you have? I bought them all for $2 at a place called Savers. I actually bought 2 more Rurouni Kenshin volumes like 30 minutes ago and tons of others! I'll post pics later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nagflar Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 (edited) I've read some DBZ vlumes, Yu Yu Hakusho, Blood: The Last Vampire 2000, Saint Seiya/Knights of the Zodiac, Uzumaki, some Rurouni Kenshin Volumes, the first 26 or so Berserk volumes and some Inuyasha volumes. I'm also currently reading Naruto, Bleach and One Piece, plus everything that's been on the US' Shonen Jump for the past 2-3 years. Also planning to read some D. Grey Man, Trigun/Trigun Maximum, Lupin the Third and others, but they're off-limits for now, since a friend won't let me borrow them.

I'd also like to read NGE, but it seems it hasn't finished yet, plus I can't really remember most of the Anime (disgraceful, if you ask me!), not to mention I've got to buy Death Note someday.

CloudyMemory2 Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 I mostly like classics like Dragonball, Hokuto no Ken, Akira, Ghost in the Shell, Berserk. Vagabond has been my absolute favorite for many years now. And the newest manga I bought are two issues of Asura's Wrath Kai, since I just finished the game. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should watch the movie Jin Roh: The Wolf Brigade if you like Akira and Ghost in the Shell. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jin-Roh is actually one of my favorite anime films I'm a big fan of Oshii Mamoru. I recommend his live action film, Avalon btw... Highly underrated in my opinion.

daftprophet Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Initial D rings a bell, but it doesn't get past that. What is it about? It's about a kid who learns to drift by delivering tofu. It's 90s awesomeness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myers Posted October 1, 2012 Author Share Posted October 1, 2012 It's about a kid who learns to drift by delivering tofu. It's 90s awesomeness. Isn't it at like chapter 700+? I thought about reading it but there were so many chapters, then later I decided to read One Piece which is near 700 chapters so my logic is obviously flawed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only problem would be all the money spent on buying all of the manga and all of the space it would take up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
