What manga are you ....

Post by Taurec »

buying / reading ?

Really I'm not in the Manga scene but after getting FMP I went to reading COTS and currently I'm reading Claymore and Old boy.

Anything new out there that is a must read?

Tessa looked down, "I haven't been called Captain in 4 years," Wha..what do you want?"
He gave her a devious grin, "I'm here to make sure you keep your promise."

I'll say the legend of Zelda Manga as thats the only manga I've read, other then FMP. I want to get more into the Manga scene though so any suggestions will be appreciated aswell.

PS: I'm a Legend of Zelda nut.

Now I am not buying any manga :? In Finland manga is so damn expensive, if not traslated in finnish, and none of those translated ones are interesting. So I have to buy manga some other countries and, in order to minimize sending costs, I buy a whole serie at one time.

Currently I read Trigun and Hellsing. Some strange reason even I don't know, I just dislike FMP manga, so I guess I won't read it ever.

- Love Hina Manga
- .Hack Novels and Manga

Starting on:
- COTS Novels
- Scrapped Princess Novels

Read 1st volume but cannot recommend:

It is not any commercial site... Some one was selling her old manga to make room for new, and I bought interesting ones.

When Trigun Maximum is ready and translated, I will buy other books, propably from Dark Horse.

The only manga I've really got into is Death Note, I prefer to watch anime rather than reading the manga just because I prefer the media.
