Re: Beck Discussion and RAW's

The problem is always translators. Pretty much anyone can typeset, but translators are extremely rare as they are always already loaded with other projects.

As I said, don't worry, there are still people working on it.. you just have to be patient..

and, for BECK - I'm I only one who actually enjoyed anime way much than manga?

Re: Beck Discussion and RAW's

Haven't watched the anime. I really dislike any anime based of a manga since I hate wasting my time watching all those fillers.

not all series based off manga have fillers, especially if the manga is complete.

Anyways, my bro says the ending for the anime is horrible. Also, i remember reading someone's opinion about the series and they honestly werent impressed with the songs. I tend to agree, from what i saw, none of the engrishy singing impressed me (how often can full moon sway impress, especially when there isnt anything special about the song or the singers) but i would think it would be nice to hear a series about music

Re: Beck Discussion and RAW's

This serie it's about rock , if you don't like rock , just read the manga and imagine them singin pop , rap , hip-hop , reggae,salsa or wathever you like . The manga have "that" particularity , the anime use very good songs as : Spice of Life (Typhoon24) , brainstorm (big muff) (from tropical gorilla) , Hit in the USA (beat crusaders) and some other good songs . But you must see beyond the music , the serie tells you about the problems of a youngster and all those things . Obviously , reading more than 1 opinion is advised , just to see it from different points of view . Personally , the anime has no fillers , it's the same as the manga from vol.1 to vol.11 . I advice watching it ,then you sure will want to read the manga.

I've read the manga up to about volume 18 and still going, but since you guys are recommending the anime and saying that it is filler-free, I think I'm gonna try it.

Re: Beck Discussion and RAW's

The anime doesn't have any fillers, but rather it leaves some stuff out. Most of the things left out are relatively small and don't have any real effect on the story. However, it kind of affects the way the story feels if you know what I mean. Some of the dirtier jokes are left out, they don't mention actual pop culture icons as much etc. Overall though I liked the anime, it was the perfect thing to get me reading the manga. Esp that crappy ending I was like no fing way, I'm gonna have to check out the manga.

Re: Beck Discussion and RAW's

It's true that the Anime does not have all the stuff about REAL bands and Icons of the Rock and Pop culture because of the licenses,in the manga they are much more permisives, but the anime is good , you can hear the performance of some very good songs such as spice of life and Brainstorm .

I agree the music in the anime is awesome. I actually watched the anime first before reading the manga. I would say I llike them both equally. In the anime you get the awesome soundtrack while in the manga the story is much more elaborated.

It's only shame that "Soundtracks", which have been with French, German and Japanese version of manga isnt with USA version too.. There was some pretty good tracks!

Re: Beck Discussion and RAW's

yeah they got some untranslated stuff appearing in the LQ... -_-

Re: Beck Discussion and RAW's

It's better than nothing. The people who worked on that aren't great at Japanese and had to put a lot of time and effort in. It's too bad there isn't someone more proficient but that's how it is.

Re: Beck Discussion and RAW's

I'm grateful for that though. Whatever translation I can find. ^_^

I am grateful to! I think we should appreaciate what they are doing. Hey it is not that easy you know.......

I' ve read until chapter 80 and man I was really supprised on how the story has developed. Kouyuki and Maho having problems in their relationship......long distance relationship is reall hard...could this be the end for both of them?

 

[baboysai]

Re: Beck Discussion and RAW's

i don't think so... it's still the "suspense" or "thriller" part in the story where the mangaka stretches the point of climax. You know, avalon, and koyuki and maho meeting. However I think it will be almost over, the story. -_- Avalon will be the determining point. If they are successful, then we know the rest of the story so that'll be the end of it. If they're not, they know it's not for them and that will be the end of it still, haha.

Re: Beck Discussion and RAW's

I don't think it is just about the Avalon. There is still the matter with Leon Sykes(i hope i spelled that right) and Ran. Beck sure has a lo of enemies....
