Mmm, well, I can't exactly say I'm reading Trigun Maximum vol. 3, it's more like read it very quickly. To be specific, I read the entire thing following my mom around the mall, then read it again immeadiatly in order to comprehend what was going on. I kept having to stop to make little squealing fangirl noises.
Think happy thoughts.

I am readin Imadoki volume# 1. I usually don't like too much shojo, but it is actually pretty funny and a story I can follow w/out too much ugh kinda stuff. That's only so far though.
I am also reading Rurouni Kenshin #s 1-7 until I can get my claws on the eighth in a few days.

Well, you can rest assured that both volume one and two of Imadoki are good (there is a girl in two who sort of "sleeps around" and [spoiler]she gets pregnant[/spoiler] but all of that behavior if frorwned upon. And they're really funny. I love the psycho-nut case blonde guy. So. darn. funny.

All right, then. If I have any money, or just stay at the bookstore long enough, I might read it. There isn't any bad scenes in it, other than that?

Wow, I've never seen this thread so far down before.

Right now, I'm reading Dear Mine Ch 14& 15, and I'm very slowly reading through the LoTT (predictably) I never get past more than fourty pages before I have to leave the book store. I was doing some serious spead reading the other day. Porbably 100 pages in 10 minutes. If only I could read the books with only words and no pictures that fast. :sweat:

Oh, and I'm rereading the first 5 volumes of Furuba, but I'm always doing that.

I was curious Gypsy, I noticed that there seemed to be two versions of Comic Party being put out. Which version are you reading and how does it compare to the anime (if you've seen that)?

The Ring volume 1

I'm not completely certain how there can be more volumes, but ah well. It was interesting, but I am slightly dissapointed. I have not really read a horror manga before, and this didn't strike me as particularly frightening in any way. The supreme irony of the story is that it was all caused by a pointless act of violence.

currently reading: The Mythical Detective Loki Ragnarok

I'm disappointed ADV didn't release the Mythical Detective Loki first. =/ It may be a different series, but it introduces you to the characters and the plot. People who haven't read the first series would be SO painfully confused picking up the Ragnarok series. >>; Heck, I was confused, and I'm well acquainted with the series. u_u; And they translated Punyan-san to Pmeow-meow. How do you even SAY that?

Currently Reading: Naruto, Bleach, Mahou Sensei Negima, re-reading Love Hina

Naruto is starting a new arc and I'm way excited about that, and Negima's storyline picked up in Volume 3 (it's not AMC, so it's not required for a volume or two :P), and [spoiler=mini-Bleach c144 recent spoiler]Bleach is coming down to an epic showdown (Ichigo vs. Byakuya, it's gotta happen sometime ^_^;;;). [/spoiler] I've been having trouble with girls recently, so I picked up Love Hina again just for some encouragement and a few laughs ^^;;

I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?" "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet. You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times." It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach. He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

I didn't say it has all the answers, but when you have three friends (all female) who are incredible Christian women and they're all semi-mad at you and like you but won't come out of the closet...

Well, Love Hina reassures me it could get worse ^^;

Yes, no matter how rock bottom my situation may seem-- I find assurance in the fact that, if I'm really cursed, I might have even farther to fall. Always a comforting thought. :lol:

That's okay. I sort of understand what you mean. I was just kidding. Mostly.


But concerning what I'm reading-- Right now I'm reading XXXHOLIC. Really cool manga. I like it better than Tsubasa.
