@rinrin:
you're reading very different ones compared to me :)
I don't really like fighting stuff. No, I have to say that I like to read it once, but I would never buy any, 'cause I wouldn't read it twice ;)
but I was a big fan of Dragonball until it apeard here too. The translation was that bad that it kind of crashed my fan-being too...
I love to mangas, which are about special relations or special stories. I like mangas which don't fit into any cathegory like "zero" or "ppoi".
But I also like the light shoujo-stuff. It's just funny, lovely and good to relax from everydays-life :mrgreen:
hmm... I never heard of Yoshikawa Utata or Mihara Chieri... I looked in the net for some mangas of them, but I didn't know any of them :sweat:

@Hinano:
hmm... I don't know both manga you wrote about :sweat:
what are they about?

I borrowed some vols of Lone Wolf and Cub from the local library. It's a sad case that the foreign language books especially mangas, the availabilty is limited since the City's budget has to be cut another slice :( This affects the library activity, less allowance every year, less titles.

I'm female, but I enjoy reading "boy" comics more for some reason. I'm not the mushy type! :P Yoshikawa Utata & Mihara Chieri usually specialize in Horror/Supernatural type manga. If you check out Amazon.co.jp you can see what some of their manga looks like. The kanji writing of the names are:

‹gì ‚¤‚½‚½ • ŽOŒ´ çŒb—˜

Another horror manga artist that is quite popular (might be easier to find her comics) is Senno Naifu (ç”V ƒiƒCƒt). Hey lemme know what titles you read! I'm always looking for more manga to read!! :mrgreen:

@hinano:
what is crossdressing?

@rinrin:
Hmm... I looked for mangas of the two mangakas. I'll look for some when I'm in japan :mrgreen:
maybe I'll like them as you do, who knows.
All right. the mangas I love are:
- "zero" from Yamazaki Takako
- "ppoi" from Yamazaki Takako
- "hot gimmick" from Aihara Miki
- "Nana" from Yazawa Ai
- "Vagabond" from Inoue Takehiko

Normally I would give you the link to my homepage, which has a lot of pictures of "ppoi" but the page is down at the moment because of an evil hacker :mecry:

What's Vagabond about? I know it's supposed to be pretty popular, but I've never picked it up.
28 Jun 2004, 16:49 #108
oh, yeah, unfortunatley "vagabond" is pretty popular. the german translation of it is just :shit: :evil:
when you read it, you have to read it in japanese.
it's the story of the famous "miyamoto musashi", maybe you watched the dorama on tv (with yonekura ryoko as otsuu).
the drawings are just awfully great!

Yeah, I heard that one too, but if I remember correctly he ended up with some other woman. Hey, when will you be leaving for Japan and where will you be staying? You must really be excited! :D
30 Jun 2004, 02:39 #116
I'm reading now "Oshiaberina Amadeus" and "Akuma no Eros" :twisted:
30 Jun 2004, 17:03 #117
sorry, michi, I don't know where you can find them on the net :shakehead:

@rinrin:
yeah, I'm really looking forward to it!
My flight is this friday and I'll be in Japan the 3rd July in the morning (japanese time). I have my own appartement there and I'm going to live alone there. It will be a litte lonley the beginning but I'll handle it ;)
probably the problem will be solved by a hot boyfriend :mrgreen:
the actor of musashi got another woman? maaan! I don't belove it.
The rumor that he is a playboy seems to be right. for me he doesn't look that good...

Well, I hope you saved a lot of money to buy manga cuz there's tons of comic stores in Japan, especially in Tokyo & Osaka! (Believe me, I've bought A LOT of comics!!) :mrgreen: Heh, are you gonna start stalking Tamayama Tetsuji? :naughty:
