Random manga rambling
Because it's my journal, and I feel like writing this.
Cool series, in alphabetical order. In brackets are alternate names.
Bleach; Death Note; Fullmetal Alchemist (FMA); Naruto; Rurouni Kenshin (Kenshin, RK, or Ruroken); Saiyuki
Series I want to know more about: aka, if you can provide me with scanslations, I'll love you forever. Again, alphabetical order.
Canterella; Eiji Psychometer; Elfen Lied; Hunter X Hunter (HXH); Pet Shop of Horrors; Shigurui; W Juliet
I've read volumes 6 and 7 of Canterella (or whatever it's called....) in French; I own one volume of Eiji Psychometer, same language, and have read two others; and I've read the first volumes each of Shigurui and W Juliet, again in French. I've read the first 17 chapters of Elfen Lied online, except now that freaking site is down. *growl* Read first two volumes of HXH, and have the same problem.
Shigurui.... If you google search it, you'll find out very quickly 1) that the manga covers are extremely bloodly, 2) that it's been licensed in French, and 3) that it's extremely violent. One person who wrote about it even said that it might make some people throw up. I wouldn't go so far as to say that.... but let's just say that in the first ten pages, one man pulls his intestines out and hands them to another guy. From my frog and pig dissections, I'd say that the series is anatomically correct. I've seen someone say that the combat is accurate as well.
I was going to buy this, if just to see if I could gross out this boy in my school. However, it was 16$, and my budget would't allow it if I wanted anything else. My recommendation on this series: If you can read French, don't mind violence and [a lot of] gore, and can find somewhere to read it where you don't have to buy it, do so.
