More Manga...

Recently finished reading Korean manga 'Totally Captivated' v.1-6/end, loved it and would recommend it to anyone who likes passion, angst, and pretty pretty artwork :)  Also try U Don't Know Me By Rakun. I got it from The Book Depository but my cover is different than the one shown [I like mine best,] see the cover at the publisher's website, NetComics . I think it's just the one volume, but I'm not sure as it could easily continue. Not as good as the others listed in this post, but some nice artwork.

Love 'Wild Adapter' by Kazuyu Minekura, have v. 1-6/ongoing, not full out yaoi, hints of BL, but a really interesting story and great characters. Gangs and violence, but likeable leads despite that.

Also loved 'Banana Fish' [1] [2] by Akimi Yoshida, gangs, violence and past child abuse. Hints of BL the two main characters have a good relationship, lots of action and angst set in America. It's complete, 19 volumes, and I'd recommend getting the editions printed by Viz Media, I think they're the 2nd editions. They read like native manga, right to left, back to front :) and have nice covers.

Some people have had trouble collecting the set, but I got mine from a mix of Ebay, Amazon [uk] and the Book Depository, just be careful you get the right edition when ordering.

Check out  'Boyfruit, a small fansite dedicated to Akimi Yoshida's revolutionary manga series Banana Fish!'
Out of money and out of patience now with the links, next post will probably be about the two new dvds I'm expecting soon, or some of my other yaoi manga, got a lot to recommend yet and some to sell!

romance, yaoi, gay, manga
