Re: What Manga are you currently reading/Going to read next?

I tried Jormungand, not impressed. Not a horrible series but kind of like Black Lagoon: as a manga it's a bit sparse but would make a sensational anime.

Resumed reading Girls Bravo. Mainly so I can get this shameless harem out of the way and into my completion list.

Also recently started Omamori Himari. It has been entertaining in its own way. I don't expect "great" things from it but I'm up for a pleasant surprise.

I caught up with Natsume Yuujinchou. Wow. A truly brilliant series. For anyone who wants something with more emotional depth than the average manga, this is a good one to read. Reminds me of Mushishi or manga by Igarashi Daisuke. A must read series.

got back into Vagabond and Change123 but since snoopycool dropped the project, chapters are very scarce.

I've caught up with Psyren now! I've enjoyed reading it so far and I'm sure it'll only get better!

I'm taking my time reading Monster & Vagabond. Right now, I'm finishing up with Darker than Black and I'll probably start reading Tegami Bachi or Vinland Saga afterwards.

It's definitely not the greatest manga ever made but it's a fun and easy read I find.

Finished reading Line, it was "meh".

Read the first two volume of Drifting Classroom, I wish someone would continue to scanlate it... ;_____;

Now back to Crying freeman.

Re: What Manga are you currently reading/Going to read next?

I always avoided Line because it's by the mangaka of Anne Freaks - worst manga I've ever read.

Shame that even the tanks of Drifiting Classroom are hard to find now. Classic series.

I finished Sabuka no Tami a one volume manga by the great Miyazaki Hayao. A hidden gem from 1969, Sabuka is the story of a central Asian peoples fight for freedom from an oppressive nomadic tribe. Originally serialized in a newspaper targeting children it is a surprisingly complex, tragic story about repression, war and the confusion and anger they breed. Absolutely classic, thanks to Hox for unearthing it!

About to start reading Souten Kouro. Looks very interesting. It was serialized in Weekly Morning and ran for 36 volumes. Lion of Genesis has recently started scanning it. They have done 3 chapters so far.

Re: What Manga are you currently reading/Going to read next?

Reading Darker Than Black was sooo depressing to say the least! Phew...that manga drained all my energy ..lol and I don't even know why! I wouldn't even rate that manga tbh.

I caught up with Black God a while ago... no new chapter since Nov 09! It doesn't have a particularly strong story but it's an enjoyable read imo.

I've just started reading Tegami Bachi. Edit: Dropped!

Re: What Manga are you currently reading/Going to read next?

I've just finished Bloody Monday and caught up with Bloody Monday 2. 'Tis ok, plenty of twists and excitement but also shonen clichés..

Currently trying to read Gintama but it hasn't really got me hooked : / Maybe after 100 chapters or so..

Re: What Manga are you currently reading/Going to read next?

started reading Mahou Sensei Negima! yesterday, seems decent but there's so many characters to remember.

Re: What Manga are you currently reading/Going to read next?

Started and caught up with the latest chapter of Burning Hell. Four chapters (well, what I found) so far, but I have enjoyed it. The description given doesn’t give it justice. However the series is a bit mature, so I guess one needs to be over a certain age. Blah, blah, blah.

I’m about to begin BioMeat , as it was suggested by a friend. So here’s hoping.

Re: What Manga are you currently reading/Going to read next?

I just read the Yellow Book. A collection of four stories, Yellow Book's four short stories cover themes of literature, family, and love. Not a manga that will blow minds but a subtle, well written, and memorable.

I also read the first story from FURUYA Usamaru's mind f**k Garden, titled Garden of Illusion: the Origin of Nudity. Expect a mix of philosophy, surrealism, and nudity. Not something for everyone but I liked it. I'll read his series Happiness next. More of a conventional manga but very interesting looking. His debut, Palepoli is one of the most original manga I've ever read. Shonen fans who know Furuya sensei from Genkaku Picasso would be shocked to read his more "typical" work.

You make this guy's manga sound very interesting. Never heard of him but now I have to check him out. I'll start with Garden and get back with my opinion later.

Depending on what you read he can get pretty twisted
His more recent series are relatively conventional though.
