What manga are you reading at the moment?

[Mycernius]

I'm currently reading the Maison Ikkoku series and Doll. Just started RG Veda. Just a pain in the arse waiting for the next one to be released in a new series ie: Remote 10 and Gunslinger Girl 4.
So, what are you reading manga wise?

I've got the first volume of Genshiken on order from Amazon. I didn't know that Gunslinger Girl was a manga. I've just discovered the anime. Now I'll have to add that to my ever growing list (and still learn enough to read the Haruhi series in Japanese)

GUNSLINGER GIRL VOL.７

No.7? I wish ADV would get its finger out of its collective arse and publish No.4 in English.:okashii:

[Clawn]

No.7? I wish ADV would get its finger out of its collective arse and publish No.4 in English.:okashii:

I feel the same on that issue. :(

I just finished reading the last volume of Chrono Crusade, and I am also partway through Magister Magi Negima. As well, I am on volume 9 of Death Note.

[Tej]

Hmm well, rite now i'm still readin' One Piece, Suzuka, and Air Gear... Well, to tell y'all da truth, there are juz 2 many 2 mention, so yeah, basically those are the top 3:D

[nurizeko]

I not long ago finished reading my Ranma 1/2 collection, and I also have a sizable collection of Love Hina.

Dont realy much else but I got a respectable little stash of assorted comic books and some graphic novels aside from those mentioned.

[Tifa]

konnichiwa !:wave:
I am reading the manga of uzumaki of Junji Ito and the Almananaque of my father of Jiro Taniguchi and I me have started reading again(afresh) the comics of dragon ball, a mythical series
I love Akira Toriyama !!! :bluush:

[Mycernius]

Uzumaki is a very strange manga. The film is even stranger, but enjoyable. Thought my colour control had gone on the TV when I first saw it:o

[Flashjeff]

Well, I've got several series in the queue right now, all of which I'm thoroughly enjoying. In alphabetical order, those series are:

Absolute Boyfriend (another winner from Yu Watase)

Ai Yori Aoshi

Fruits Basket

I's (more female eye candy from Masakazu Katsura of Video Girl Ai fame)

Negima! (plenty wacky and lots of fun)

Oh! My Goddess

Remote

Yubisaki Milk Tea (an unusal slice of life manga where the star of the series is a high school boy who's secretly a crossdresser and is in something of a romantic triangle. I can't explain why it appealed to me, but I found it interesting)

To Mycernius: Uzumaki was perhaps the most bizarre manga I've ever read. I've also seen the movie, but it doesn't come close to equaling the weirdness factor of the manga.
:souka:

[MasterGeek]

Currently reading: Gantz & Naruto

[Timey]

[MeAndroo]

Addicted to Curry

I tend to read my manga online, so how often I read is often subject to outside circumstances.

[DmJapan]

Ai Yori Aoshi
Dragon Head

[acquiredtarget]

Just finished Genshiken #5. Now I'm waiting for #4 and #6 so I'll be all caught up.

[yamada]

last week I piked up 7 volumes of Dokaben, a story on several high school baseball players and somewhat related to their 'human tales' and said them good bye after finished reading them.

[Dutch Baka]

Nothing yet, But I want to start reading some easy manga for practising my Japanese... with only hiragana-katakana... I hope haha

I started Kanji today so that should be okay. any nice tips? for easy japanese manga

[yamada]

I dont really recommend mangas for practising kanji. Picture books would be better. Some of 6-8 children use them.

[Hiroyuki Nagashima]

Nothing yet, But I want to start reading some easy manga for practising my Japanese... with only hiragana-katakana... I hope haha

I started Kanji today so that should be okay. any nice tips? for easy japanese manga

I recommend this Manga

"YOTUBATO"
http://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/product/4840234418/sr=8-1/qid=1156534918/ref=sr_1_1/250-0817784-2503469?ie=UTF8&s=gateway

It is the most new work of "AZUMA KIYOHIKO" which it described "AZUMANGA DAIOH" in.
Because there are many hiragana letters, this thinks that it is easy to read.
One more,

"KOBE ZAIJYU"
http://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/product/4063211754/sr=1-1/qid=1156535612/ref=sr_1_1/250-0817784-2503469?ie=UTF8&s=books

This Manga is the Manga which I described daily life of art University female college student of Kobe in
Because an existing place appears in Kobe in this Manga, I think that it is good to visit a place coming out to Manga

[Midori_Stardust]

[DangerousBob]

Now I am drawling more manga then reading it. I like Elfen Lied though.

[Nall-ohki]

Currently reading Gantz and Yotsuba& (by the creator of Azumanga Daioh)

Gantz is one of the best things I've ever read. The anime isn't great, but the manga is absolutely awesome.

I liked Elfen Lied, but I couldn't stand the art quality in the Manga - the anime was much better.

Anyone who hasn't should read Azumanga Daioh - it caused me to get strange looks due to fits of laughter on my daily commute.

[justin]

My brother-in-law works at Hastings and hooked me up with a TokyoPop sneak peek book. After reading it I might check out DearS, Warcarft, and Hyper Police.

[jnelly9]

hana-kimi
fruits basket
and about to read full moon wo sagashite ^_^

anyone else know any good ones?

[William Spencer]

I read and analyse the manga of Tagame Gengoroh who writes homoerotic SM manga. I guess it could be classified as hentai. It's one of my research interests since I am interested in how masculinities are represented in Japanese manga and anime. Anything writing by Katsuhiro OOtomo is good. I am reading a series called Robot which contains many different styles - interesting.

I am interested in reading any manga which attempts to demonstrate so-called constrained writing, that is, constrained in some way through types of images (hence the Tagame material), vocabulary, grammar, etc. Any one reading that kind of material (not necessaily hentai stuff)? I guess mangaka who are developing their own doojinshi might be in a better position to experiment with constrained writing than other commerical mainstream publications.

Oh BTW any one who can help me understand how I get to Comiket in Tokyo this August would be appreciated. I udnerstand from the web site I need to buy a catalogue then just turn up. More details please...

[Fukaku]

I am currently reading the Death Note manga.
And Hikaru No Go, and, Parasyte. :D

[Kumi-chanmi]

--Tenshi Ja Nai
--Hellsing
--Chibi Vampire
--Rose Hip Zero
--Vampire Knight
--Battle Club
--Princess Resurrection
--Kashimashi

[Mikawa Ossan]

It's a little old, but currently I'm reading Kim Jong Il: An Introductory Course (http://www.amazon.co.jp/%E3%83%9E%E3%83%B3%E3%82%AC%E9%87%91%E6%AD%A3%E6%9 7%A5%E5%85%A5%E9%96%80-%E6%8B%89%E8%87%B4%E5%9B%BD%E5%AE%B6%E5%8C%97%E6%9 C%9D%E9%AE%AE%E3%81%AE%E7%9C%9F%E5%AE%9F-%E6%9D%8E-%E5%8F%8B%E6%83%85/dp/4870315750/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/250-9789000-1529830?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1184505549&sr=8-1)

It's an interesting read, to say the least...

[diceke]

I just read Death Note 1 & 2, Hikaru no go 1, and didn't really enjoy. I guess I just grew out of manga after Jr High. :clueless:

[Lolipop]

got tired of shoujo, a lot of crap plot. I'm reading mostly josei/borderline josei stuff, like:

Bito Lolipop v1, Iketani Ricaco
Oboreru Knife v6, George Asakura
Piece of Cake v1, George Asakura
Clover, Chiya Toriko,

and some shonen:

Welcome to the NHK! v7
BLEACH v28.

I still am following certain shoujo in Betsucomi magazine every month:

bokura ga ita, by Obaata Yuki, for one, and mens kou by Kaneyoshi Izumi.

[Clawn]

I'm (still) reading Negima!
I've added a few new titles to my list, so here goes!
Genshiken
GetBackers
Midori Days

And I hope to get more soon. :cool:

[Kirie_Maiden]

Vampire doll, Blood suc....ker and Gothic Sport.

I just read Trash. It was awesome.

I also read Model a while ago. Just volume one.

That's my entire manga history.

[Mycernius]

Never fancied reading Negima. I did watch the first episode of the anime, but wasn't really moved to watch anymore.
Currently reading
-Chibi Vampire
-Lament of the Lamb
-Gunslinger Girl
-Immortal Rain

[Clawn]

Never fancied reading Negima. I did watch the first episode of the anime, but wasn't really moved to watch anymore.

I'd recommend it, even though it starts off slow. The majority of volume 1 is devoted to character introductions (and there's a whole boatload of them, so if you do read it, be prepared) and background story. However, by volume 2 the story goes into full swing and the action really gets going. The only real gripe I have about it is that the story takes a while to get going, and even then it doesn't move very fast. Plenty of time is spent on little details and side stories. :relief:

Anywho, I forgot to add that I'm also reading Chibi Vampire. :wave:

[FrostPixie]

At the moment I'm reading Death Note and Ouran High School Host Club, and I'm also half way through A.I. Love You but I'm sort of on a hiatus with that.
I started to read Demon Diary (got up to volume 3) but it's just annoying me.

[Flashjeff]

Anywho, I forgot to add that I'm also reading Chibi Vampire. :wave:

The first volume of the anime based on that manga, called Karin just came out and so far, it's pretty faithful to the manga. There's also a couple of Chibi Vampire novels out. I recently read the first and it wasn't too bad.

A new series I just started in on, Iono-Sama Fanatics is loopy like nobody's business. The story centers around Queen Iono, ruler of a small, unnamed country who comes to Japan with her all-girl entourage for the express purpose of building a female harem (she calls them "sobanes") as she has a serious case of the hots for Japanese girls with long black hair. Like I said, it's pretty loopy.

:p

[Flashjeff]

Our friends, the Japanese certainly come up with some incredibly wacky ideas for manga, and yesterday, I discovered yet another bizarro, but enjoyable (to me anyway) series: Pretty Face.

The star of this series is Rando Masashi, a cocky teenage martial artist who's face is destroyed in a bus crash. When he wakes up from a coma a year later, Rando discovers, much to his horror that a plastic surgeon recreated his face from a picture found in Rando's pocket, but that face is of his secret love, Rina Kurimi. Yep, he's been given a girl's face, but everything from the neck down is still male! Things then wackier when Rando's mistaken by Rina for her long lost sister Yuna. With his family having moved while he was in his coma, Rando has no choice by to move in with Rina and be her sister instead of her boyfriend.

Like I said, seriously wacky. I have no idea what to compare Pretty face to, but hey, I got a goodly number of chuckles out of it, so I'll keep on reading.

:cool:

[RevengeBabyYeah]

At the moment- Legal Drug. It's CLAMP, enjoying it so far. It hints at shonen-ai kinda.
Lolipop - i really wanna read 'Welcome to the NHK' what do you think of it?
Flashjeff- a friend recomended 'Yubisaki' to me but haven't got around to it yet. Sounds weird:D
Theres so many I wanna read but I'm totally strapped for cash at the moment, you know how it is:D
