Mangaaaaaaaaa!

[Jingle Scott]

Thought I'd open up some discussion here in the manga sub-forum. As fans of anime, I can safely assume that there are also fans of manga here amongst us. So this question shouldn't be too out of place.

What are you reading right now? Would you recomend others to read it? It can be manga/manhwa/mahua, honestly if you're wrapped up in the latest story arc of Superman or The Avengers, just put it out there. We're not going to judge.

To start off, I'm currently marathoning the works of Mitsuru Adachi. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitsuru_Adachi Probably not a name familiar to alot of people. He is the creator of several popular series including Touch (being shown in PAC Classic) and Cross Game (being shown in 27+).

I'm also reading Maison Ikkoku by Rumiko Takahashi (of Ramna 1/2 and Inuyasha fame). A great romantic comedy that I'd suggest anyone toread.

The final series I'm going to list is Nodame Cantabile. Yes, I am reading it, and Yes, I know that there is no music involved but I started reading just before it became an anime. It's great fun to read.


Now hopefully I won't be the only one to put myself out there by doing this, so go on. What are you reading right now?

Currently I'm reading:

Pokemon Special; Negima!?; Bleach; Ranma 1/2; and I guess Detective Conan...sorta.

Just recently read Osamu Tezuka's MW, but haven't started reading the Adachi stuff that Ian gave me just yet.

Otherwise, I've been reading xxxHolic whenever new volumes come out.

I also read good old American comic books.

So instead putting down my entire pull list, here is a link to it: http://heavyink.com/user/3512/subscriptions

There are some more that I finished and are not continuing. Didn't think it'd be worth listing them here...

[Catas]

Since then I've only been reading the Umineko no Naku Koro ni manga.
Sure, I played the game. But the manga is so much better than the anime.

[madmantheo]

Not that hard since the anime ended in a complete cliffhanger, and the explanations it provided were bullshit.

[Catas]

Well, the cliffhanger and explanations were probably a fault with the fact that the game ended the same way.
I'm more commenting on the fact that DEEN failed at proper pacing for the show, and made an overall bad adaptation.

Reading Rosario + Vampire as it comes out, and need to read Chobits, but I keep forgetting to!
