Please tell me someone else here reads PT! I want to talk about it but I don't want to spoil it for those who don't read it. >.< It is SUCH a good manga!


I read PT!! :D Filled with drama, but it's not such a bad thing here. V13c3 was sooo good, I'm pretty much a Daiya fan now, but I used to e for Ichi until Iori came along... *grr* Pm me if yah wanna talk about it more :jump:

I finished reading Mermaid Princess, a scanlation. I was put off by the artwork at first (it's not really bad or anything, but the little preview page that I saw of it on DailyManga turned me off), but I'm glad that I finally read it, it was really cute.

I'm reading something called "Wild 7" an early manga (60s, I think). It cost a dollar. It's a later volume, I forget which one.

Furuba volume 10!! Yay!
Every year in Uganda, innumerable children simply. . . disappear. These children all stolen under the cover of darkness from their homes and impressed into the guerilla armies of the LRA [Lord's Resistance Army]. In the deserts of Uganda, they are forced to witness the mindless slaughter of other children until they themselves can do nothing but kill. Kill. These children, generally ranging from ages 5-12, are brainwashed into murdering in the name of the resistance and into stealing other children from their beds to suffer the same fate.

Because of this genocide of innocence, hundred and hundreds of children live every night sleeping in public places miles from their homes, because they know that if the do not-- they will disappear. They will become just another number in this genocide to which the international community has chosen to turn a blind eye. They will become, in affect, invisible-- Invisible Children.

But there are those who are trying to fight against this slaughter of Uganda's children. They fight to protect these "invisible children." Please, help them help a country full of children who know nothing by fear. Help save the innocence. For more information concerning how you can help and how you can get an incredible video about this horrific reality, visit the Invisible Children home page.

Alchino vol. 1 o.o
Tokyo Boys and Girls vol. 1 - I hope it doesn't turn out like Hot Gimmick, so far only a comment or two in TBG suggests that it might.
Merupuri vol. 1 - soon to reread, this time in GN form--yay!!

Dragon Hunter Volume 12
August Shonen Jump (finally)

I've noticed that while I like some aspects of manwha, many of the artists have artistic habits that annoy me highly. I'm not well-read enough in the field to reliably say if this is characteristic of all manwha or merely a coincidence.

High School Girls 3--- heads up though. It's developing nudity and becoming rather crass, so people may want to give it a pass

Recently, I have begun reading more of Hunter x Hunter. Unfortunately, having seen later chapters of the series from friends reading recent chapters, it appears that it goes downhill sharply.

Also, I have been getting into numerous later chapters of One Piece.

Given that your posts were roughly eight days apart and each contained different content that reflected upon actual reading, I believe it is acceptable (though technically your posts are immediately following one another). If you were to post twice a day with one volume each time, that would be double posting.

Megaman NT Warrior Volume 6

Can't say I was particularly impressed with it, but it was at the library.
