Thought i would start a topic here about this cool Shonen GanGan manga (Fullmetal Alchmist, 666 satan, Kingdom hearts (series) ect) Manga-rain scaned c1-11 but they are kindof stalled/slow right now *wonders if this manga will become the next 666 satan here (meaning translators will pick it up and get it uptodate fast )

I love this manga it isnt very complicated *yet >.>* and it is funny ^______^ what do you guys think of this manga?

[barbapapa]

Its pretty cool. Im not completely convinced by it yet. But the style is very appealing and has some refreshing concepts.

OH this one! I haven't read it for a while... so i hope manga-rain releases more scans

[ssjohn]

Don't hold your breath..... they are working on Bleach / Shaman king right now and thats about it but i do think this manga dose get better later on * from the covers i see on gangan's site it looks like the plot is realie picking up ^^ *

[ginrai]

checked the first volume today and i like it!the art has it own feel which is good,the action and the humor are very nice(and so is the fanservice )!kidd is my favorite character for the moment!personally i can see myself buying this series if it's wel handled in terms of translation and it remaining in it's original form!

[az060693]

does anyone want to translate Soul Eater, can someone give me the raws past chapter 11?

[antovrv]

there hasnt been any new scanlations from soul eater (manga-rain) in months...n' there main site seems to be dead

these have become my fav shonen mangas i recommend soul eater to whoever likes bleach/d.grayman

[Xophien]

Unfortunately, according to Manga-Updates, it seems nobody is scanlating it right now.

You may want to ask in the Scanlation Request board if someone wants to pick it up, you might be in luck and find a scanlation group willing to do it

[Maxy Barnard]

I may be wrong, but i believe viz have licensed the manga for release sometime this year, if you have the patience

And it's a solid manga, i'm sure groups will jump at it

[barbapapa]

This isnt licensed.

[ginrai]

nope it isn't!and honestly viz would be the worst possible licenceholder in this case(seven seas would be a good licenceholder for this imo)!

[Maxy Barnard]

sorry, i mixed it up with Soul Hunter (Houshin Engi). Which means i have no idea what this is, and so i will walk off in shame

[ssjohn]

XD ^_^

No no scanlation group is doing this manga one big reason my freind thinks is cuz there is no public raw for the manga meaning you have to buy the volumes and scan them your self -_- ((Yes i know all manga has to be scaned by someone >_<))

I love the manga so far but all i know about the latest chapters is the little i see on the GanGan website but the color cover pages are nice

Manga-rain isn't dead they are just kindof dead >.<

I think Soul eater is a awsome manga i actualy think Viz would be a good translator for this manga. ((( *sigh* whats the world comeing to i said the word Viz and Good translator in the same sentence >.<))

[treetz]

yes were can u get there

[ssjohn]

V1-4 you can get off LURK past that i can't find

I am trying to talk to some shonen gangan scaners about scaning it and if they do my freind who works for M-R said he / a translator will do it and get it out so all we need is raws >_<
