zettai kareshi is finished (only 6 volumes) and it is a not-so-happy ending

LOL I'm also way behind the current anime series

Naito or Night was spoilt beyond repair (just like an faithful old household applicance) and there is no way the company could bring back Naito to Riiko. So...the ending was erm...Riiko's childhood friend decided to look after her and Riiko said Naito was her first boyfriend and will always be her forever boyfriend.

Now...isn't that sad yet happy? Its ending felt so much like Ayashi no Ceres with Yuuhi who loves Aya so much but she chose Touya (who isn't a real human that will die eventually) and Yuuhi took care of Aya after Touya's demise.

yeah, but thats yui watase's style ^^ Do any of her novels end completely happy?

*sign* I wish mangas would cost like $3 ^-^ I would be able to read them all the time.

Did you ever borrowed Suikoden from your friend Choki?

I keep forgeting to try and download Tsubasa >.< lol, "on demand" seems to be the only way for me to watch anime lately.

Erm...I didn't borrow Suikoden III manga from friends...I bought it :grin: I have 6 volumes already

I heard comments abt Gantz being a real violent manga with blood & gore
I don't think my country comic publisher will publish this manga...but there is the taiwan version selling in my country but it will cost more :o but since it is sooo violent...I think I will give it a miss :lol:

I've finally completed watching Gundam Seed and now, moving onto Gundam Seed Destiny. :razz:

Yay, more Gundam! Lacus has a cuter outfit... and lots of things blow up tragically!

Oh yeah, do you have a bookoff in your general area? It's a used manga shop. The manga is always in good condition and they have a range from 1 to 3 dollars per tankubon. Granted, it's all in japanese; but still

Tanuki - yeah, I have on-demand. Do you have that too? Its really really great (and free). And because episodes are changed monthly it gives me time to actually catch up with couple of series.

Oh and "bookoff" - I don't know, I'll check. We did use to have a great japanese bookstore in Boston but then ...it moved away >.< Plus, I can't read in japanese....

Choki you have all 6 volumes? cool!!! Are they good? well....they must be since you got all 6... Man, I'm still on volume 2. I only read it for Chris XD, my fav game character ever!

Gantz - first 2 eps. are on demand already, but now that you told me that it's gory I'm staying away from it too. (i hate gory, superviolent stuff)

What about Death Note? is it almost over? Did you find out anything about "L"?

No, I don't get "anime on demand"... we have time warner, they suck for that reason

As for teh tankubon... you don't need to read japanese. If you did, god wouldn't have invented translation groups

Tanuki, Lacus is cute in that new outfit but my fav. is still Cagalli! Orb uniform look the coolest esp. if you are a in a high rank.

Mint, the problem with Suikoden III manga is that it is focusing on 3 main characters and their 'world' so it is rather all over the place and does all the 3 characters ever meet up or something? Suikoden III game appears to be choosing to play 1 character out of 3 and I guess the story will goes differently but with the same ending, am I right?

Death Note...I'm not sure if Vol. 6 is the last volume but if it is, then I'm guessing I will have a chance to read it 1-2 mths later. All I know is L will be killed off by Light (Raito) and L will know the truth about Light's real identity at the moment of his death. What a way to end the series... but then again, I have to finish the whole volume to make sure there is no hidden surprise at the end. I prefer Light to win though. He's such an enjoyable character.

Oh yeah I like Light better (and I didn't even read the books XD)

Suikoden - yeah it ends the same. But you know I only want to read manga to know more about main characters so I guess its good for me.

Tanuki - demand it! XD lol, honestly I don't know if demanding is gonna do anything >.> I did fill out the "to your cable provider" form on animenetwork website ^-^
