I've just read Princess Ai vol 1-3 and just finished Princess Ai The Prism of Midnight Dawn and love it like crazy! It's a great manga series and I want to finish the rest of it

[cbchick]

right now im currently reading vampire knight. cant wait till the new chapter is out! =o

[loner-kid]

I just finished reading the final chapter of 'bitter virgin' and I can honestly say that it's by far the best manga i've read for a long time. The story is very honest and at times quite heart warming. It does however have some quite dark themes, but it's a story about the emotional scars that such trauma has upon someone and what it takes to deal with those wounds.

[The Moogle Shinigami]

Franken Fran. I haven't quite finished it yet. Truly I started reading it for the lols...oddly enough didn't get many. Actually it's very creepy. VERY gory, if you don't like blood or guts, stay clear.

[SacredAngel13]

now i'm reading Kuroshitsuji (Black Butler in English version).
it is a greeeeeeaaattttt~ manga! ^o^
i'm waiting for vol.3 of the manga

[Athna Loveil]

Currently Boku no Hatsukoi wo Kimi ni Sasagu, until chapter 30 which was they had until
and this other random manga with another one of those sad beginning as the main character is being bullied and such :/

[Xanatos]

I've heard many good things about Fushigi Yuugi so I decided to give it a try and so far it's pretty great. Also I have something to read while I wait for the new chapters of few manga that I'm currently reading.

[sephirothsbigfan]

i just read the previews of three mangas: kimikiss, bloody kiss, and UB Rose and they were all really good and want to read all of it now!

[Meigumi]

I got Hitman Reborn vol. 1 and 2. I want the rest of the volumes, but I'm re-reading volume 1 for now.

"Emma" by Kaoru Mori.
It's about a shy maid... She met a gentleman from a rich family and they fall in love. But, because of their status differences, they can't be with each other. One day, the maid's master suddenly died, and she had to go somewhere else... Leaving her lover behind.

It's pretty touching story, actually.

[WilsonDean1990]

I'm looking for a new manga to read, i love the thriller aspect of death note and like up beat fighting like in DBZ Fullmetal Alchemist and Bleach. Any Suggestions

[SSJ4 Goku]

WilsonDean1990, while I've never read any of its manga incarnations, Code Geass sounds like it would be right up your alley. The main character is quite similar to Light from Death Note, fighting for his righteous goals in a morally ambiguous way, and the series has a lot of the same edge-of-your-seat suspense moments in it. It's a mecha series, too, technically, so it has a good number of battles to balance out the drama. Some of the main characters are high schoolers, though, and the school antics sometimes seem a bit boring, but, unlike DBZ or Bleach, it's not as pointless as the filler in those series can become.

The series was a two-season anime, but there are three manga series based off if it. The original, based off of the show (and sharing its name) is Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion. They also have two other versions right now with the subtitles "Suzaku of the Counterattack" and "Nightmare of Nunnaly." Like I said, I've never read the manga, though, so I can't vouch for them 100%, but the anime, at the very least, is pretty great.

Anyway, since I haven't posted in this thread for over a year and a half, the things I'm currently reading include:

-FullMetal Alchemist (still going strong! Vol. 21 came out here last month and it looks like the series is finally drawing towards a close, but what a close it will be!
-Neon Genesis Evangelion: Shinji Ikari Raising Project (another alternate universe manga for Eva! I like this one's art more than Angelic Days. The third volume should be coming out this month if I'm not mistaken)
-Pluto (vol. 7 of 8 should be out in January and I can't wait.)
-20th Century Boys (vol. 7 is out this month, but I've yet to pick it up)

(Yes, you can see the connection with the last two and my previous post: After finishing up Monster, I moved on to Naoki Urasawa's newer works, which began publication here as soon as Monster finished. I'm loving every second of them! ^_^)

Also, I'm actually reading GTO: Shonan 14 Days as the chapters (slowly) come out in Japan. They've only published 17 chapters (plus two bonus chapters) so far, but it's great to have new Onizuka material, especially since Tokyopop went under and I can't continue with Shonan Jun'ai Gumi (despite only 10 of the 15 volumes getting released here)

And lastly, there are the series I'm still theoretically reading, but am relegated to waiting indefinite amounts of time until the next volumes come out. Those include:

-Neon Genesis Evangelion (Still waiting for the final[?] 12th volume to come out, but as it's not even out in Japan yet, I'm not holding my breath)
-Trinity Blood (with the release of vol. 11 over the summer, I think we're pretty much current with Japan, so, once again, new releases in the States are dependent on new releases in Japan
-Hellsing (the end is finally near! The 10th and final volume should be out here this coming April!)

Yeah..! What chapter are you now? Or did you stop reading it..?

I'am now on chapter 27 (voLume 5) of Fushigi Yuugi.. Long way to go..

I've been comparing the manga version to it's T.V series version.. and I must say.. there's no difference at aLL.. except for that, some scenes (just a LittLe) were cut-off (some scenes in the beginning) and that Miaka (the main character) have a quite number of hairstyLe on the manga version.. but stiLL.. she keep her doubLe bun hairstyLe when she wear her uniform.. aLL characters stiLL kept their originaL styLe and Looks.. no difference, which is good..!

[chocobofantasy]

just finished reading the 3rd book of the dragonball series

[Josh_R]

I have been trying to balance manga reading with my anime watching. Right now I am currently reading Blackcat. I was watching the anime when I remembered that I have the complete manga set. So I started reading it. Only manga I am reading right now, to busy watching anime's to read anything else...

[J3N0V4]

I'm currently doing a shojou thing and reading all the classics for shojous like Hana-kimi and odd vague ones like Kamisama Hajimemashita

and of course I'm doing 2/3rds of the shonen trilogy Bleach and Naruto

[RamesesII]

I am actually currently reading Bleach, I don't know why I have never started until now it is so funny and awesome, I bought the first manga a while ago and I wanted a break from my books so I read it and couldn't put it down.

But I have a problem I don't have the ching ching to go buy the rest so problem solved with the magic of the world wide web so I am hooked with that now.

[SacredAngel13]

Oh Emma is on my list. The story is good, but kinda heavy because of its conflicts. Overall 9/10

By the way.. I just finished reading Usami Maki's Bus For Spring. Sweet and funny stories are packed on four volumes. All of the stories consist bus, or bus stop, anything that related to bus. I laughed and cried when reading it!
