I tried reading this one before but really didn't find it likeable; but yes in general IKKI is a great source for weird alternative manga.

Well usually there are like 8-ish chapters per volume, and the magazine chapters released so far only run up to 5. So it'll probably be sometime early fall?

Yeah but Jmanga was basically just a moniker for a collaboration between a bunch of Japanese publishers; much like how Viz has become a moniker for Shueisha and Shogakukan publications in recent...

Man I'm really debating on whether or not I should start sharing those SoreMachi scans at one point...

Love those fluorescent spines. Just like my Drifting Classroom books.

Yep, great stuff.
Support the official version so we'll get more manga like this: http://www.bookdepository.com/search?searchTerm=dorohedoro&search=Find+book (worldwide free shipping)

I've always wanted to sample one of Takahashi's works; aside from some Sidooh chapters an eternity ago. So I'm getting the files now and will try and read it today/tomorrow.

Yeah I get that 100%. I'm lucky in that I've done work for Jmanga along with the same people who did SoreMachi; so I have access to the files. Just finished the 10th and most recent volume yesterday,...

Matt you would probably like Soredemo Machi wa Mawatteiru; if you haven't read it yet. I'm almost caught up with it (8/10 books) and it is so enjoyable.

I thought the follow-up A Patch of Dreams was a lot better.

best manga

The bullfighting thing is really hard to get behind. Also whiney lesbian I want to die boo hoo

Shame, I liked Udon no Hito.

Pre-ordered my copy today as well. Can NOT wait, despite the fact I already read the first book on scans.
I actually also ordered Tekkon Kinkreet and Blue Spring, just because Matsumoto is the man.

I don't want to bug him about it, but anyone else is free to do so with my blessing.

whoops guess I let this one slip
yeah I've been crazy busy with work ever since the last scanlation, and with Matsunaga ramping up the amount of text in each chapter I'm not very inclined to get...

Kind of seems so, with Mamoru being interrupted by the agent on the bike.

Strictly, both seinen. None of Mori's series ran in josei magazines.

Lol, you're thinking a bit too much in terms of "most manga." ;p

Chapter 11 scanlation released.

Now all that's left is to read Bakune Young; probably Matsunaga's most deranged work.

Amazing show. It's been a while since I've been impressed with an anime series.

I doubt he'll change his releasing habits; a faster schedule definitely isn't an option since he's working on this alone. For example 2 chapters per week would mean 3-page chapters. I doubt it'll end...

I'm pretty sure there's a lot of people interested, just a question of finding a group that'll convert those translations into actual releases. ;) Maybe try Deadbeat-Scans? They're doing Rookies now,...

I actually liked the first 2 volumes best so far, but volumes 7-8 had a very nice Resident Evil/Dawn of the Dead atmosphere.

It's worth your time.

Lol, that drawing of the moon was obviously just a photo. ;p

Matsunaga posted chapter 9 this morning, I might not get to it right away since I have some work to finish up in the next few days.

this manga sucks go read boys on the run (slight exaggeration)

It's a fun manga, but much like with Otoyomegatari the publication is way too slow to keep track of.

whyyyyy is this manga so slow in output :(
it's literally the only bad thing about it

Crazy, definitely didn't see it coming and probably explains the recent downgrade in artwork.

The best part was Colonel Sanders being the principal.

This fifth volume was kind of a drag to read. Especially considering how much I'm enjoying Hanazawa's Boys on the Run.
Hopefully the next one is better, or I'm considering dropping it until it's...

Chapter 8 is scanlated.

you are out of your mind, but that is your good right

Dance till Tomorrow is one of my favorites, and the oldest of Naoki Yamamoto's translated works. A really funny, sexy college comedy; typical 90's stuff.
There's Kazan ('97), which I'm not sure is...

Usually in longer series, the author only has a general idea of what to do with his manga. Often these are popular manga, whose lifespans are mostly determined by reader response. Whereas in...

I'm wondering if we'll get to see that Paperakyu holding facility the teacher mentioned a few chapters ago...

this month's chapter is kerazy
I have it roughly translated

okay my...

it really depends on the story the author wishes to tell, but in general I prefer series don't last forever. 20 volumes MAX

Mangascreener doesn't exactly have the staff to support a manga like Bambino, nor do we ever consider picking up something that's been done by others before.

There's a sequel to Bambino!, called Bambino! Secondo that is still ongoing.

It took me a few times, and a lot of patience when I finally decided to push through and keep reading. The opening volume to this one is so overwhelming it's crazy. But yeah if you know what...

Yeah Number Five is just nuts. I bought the iPad app, which is a complete English official version of it.

The version I'm working off is actually 4 volumes. The 6-volume print was about 130 pages per volume, so now it's about 190 per book.

No, kind of the opposite, the kind you're thinking of is even older, whereas the 80's to 90's shoujo and josei I'm thinking of is more like Ai Yazawa stuff.

Personally I think (good) shoujo and josei series really excell in portraying emotional interactions, though. Like the equivalent of seinen series with heavy pathos...

I think being hired to letter Gals! (even though it was absolutely retarded) kind of softened me up towards shoujo manga. I'm not gonna call myself a fan, but I've read some authors that I really...

So apparently the author hung himself?

Glad you like it! As you say a lot of people get turned off by manga looking like this, but I'm very drawn to these oddball series. Their loss, huh?
