What manga series are you currently reading?
It has been a while since I've read or watched anything Rumiko Takahashi related. She's one of my favorite manga authors and thought I'd give Rin-ne a shot.
I mostly like Rumiko for her work in Ranma 1/2. lulzy series

Re: What manga series are you currently reading?
I need some help from you serious manga readers. I'm going to take up One Piece a lot sooner than I thought, but which other one should I read between Gantz and Magi?

Re: What manga series are you currently reading?
Quote:
It depends on what you want to read: Shounen (like Naruto or Bleach) or Seinen (lots of gore, lots of nudity/sex, very adult themes)? Magi is the former and Gantz the later. And some advice on One Piece: see the anime for the first arcs. Along with being easier to assimilate, the scanlations available of those first arcs are really crappy (not even knowing how to write the main character's name kind of crappy). |

Re: What manga series are you currently reading?
Currently reading (in no particular order of favoritism):
Naruto Bleach One Piece One Punch Man Freezing Magi God of High School Tower of God Hajime no Ippo Vinland Saga Toriko Berserk. The 3 or 4 times a year we actually get a chapter ![]() Was reading Fairy Tail, Beezlebub and Aiki, but recently quit them due to extreme disappointment in the series. They just got stale and unoriginal.

Re: What manga series are you currently reading?
Give Magi a chance, it's a great series.
As for OP, read it from this site. http://kissmanga.com/Manga/One-Piece It loads all pages at once, it allows for a much faster read.

I used to read Gantz. It starts off great but it gets extremely horrible around chapter 100 or so. Spoiler:

Re: What manga series are you currently reading?
Don't get me wrong, there are plenty of subtle, unexplained things in Gantz, but those main plot points aren't included in that set. And even with the disappointing (VERY disappointing) super alien race reveal and disappointing plot protection granted to Tae, it's still 100 times better than something like Naruto to me. I read (basically as soon as the chapter comes out): One Piece Berserk Vinland Saga Gantz Claymore I read (usually wait a while and then pick at it here and there): Detective Conan Vagabond

Re: What manga series are you currently reading?
Hajime no Ippo (finally got caught up on all 1000+ chapters, holy shit, manly), Berserk (absolutely horrendous when it comes to updates, and I don't like the direction of the narrative now, but still delivers on artwork and manly battles), Soul Eater (fuck yeah, Soul Eater), Vinland Saga (what the fuck happened to this one?), AIKI (needs to update more, but I still find the ridiculous fighting interesting), History's Strongest Disciple Kenichi (fuck yeah, martial arts!), Grappler Baki (mangahere doesn't have any chapter past 90 which is irritating, but I like the ridiculous violence), Naruto (because I hate myself), and just started Y十M to pass the time. Don't really have an opinion on the very last one at the moment since the scanlations/translators/writers are inconsistent and... not great.

Re: What manga series are you currently reading?
Aiki really needs to update more frequently. Same goes for Hunter x Hunter. The Ant Chimera arc was freaking insane. I was reading this series called Gamaran. Cool series about weapon based martial arts. Put a hold on that for personal reasons but gonna pick it up again soon.

Re: What manga series are you currently reading?
Going to say AMA pretty much has my views on Gantz down. The whole set up was a real "Where's this going" but interesting but when they finally leave the room the whole thing is just hard to read. Don't get it and it's taken a sharp nose dive. I occasionally return to it only to be disappointed again.
Reading: Naruto Bleach One Piece Soul Eater <- so good. Green Blood <- doing quite well in the set up Fairy Tail <- honestly, it's getting worse than Bleach In process of catching up/coming back to from time to time Magi Berserk Claymore Gantz Blame! Other's I've started but really have no intention of finishing lest I'm bedridden: Elfin Lied Ubel Blatt Sun-Ken Rock One's I've been meaning to read: Vagabond Hajime no Ippo Also: http://www.fandom.com/forums/showthread.php?t=70769

Bleach One Piece Soul Eater Liar Game Fairy Tail? Only because I'm not reading a lot and it's so fast to read, I hate every second of it. |
