But according to Katou, Kei's better than Gokuu AND Kenshirou.

Re: Bleach 500 Discussion / 501 Predictions When you're doing 1 v 1 comparisons (e.g. in sports), transitivity is not guaranteed to hold at all.

Re: Jackals by Murata Shinya & Kim Byung Jin (v07) I just finished the seventh volume, and I guess that's it. The ending was a bit abrupt, but it wasn't bad.

Re: Bleach 420 Discussion/421 Predictions Assuming the translation is accurate, the nerd in me wants to explain it as follows: Anything in R^2 (ie. the xy-coordinate system) can be expressed in R^3 (xyz-coordinate system) but not vice versa. For example, the equation of a sphere cannot be...

When I first started reading the manga, I noticed how that the chapters "read very quickly." So, for some time, I've felt that a live-action Gantz is doable. My vision for a complete adaptation might be a bit too costly, though, as I feel that Phase I should have two films. For example, the...

Thanks a lot, jdw!
