Wow. Ol' Dougen still has some fight left in him after all. Amazing.

This chapter certainly made up for all the times he was an ass in the past arc. I definitely have a better impression of him now.

kujoe

Well, I hope it's going to be available here. I guess I'll be looking into this, and hopefully a store sells it.

And if it's indeed true that CMX books won't be available in the UK, perhaps we can assume that there's another company planning to release it over there?

kujoe

Nice pic.

Thanks for the pinup Fugu.

kujoe

I think Maya won't realize she has feelings for Nagi till the very end of the manga. This, I could see happening--with an emphasis on the phrase "end of the manga." But it doesn't mean that they'll end up together at all. In my opinion, there's just something about Nagi and Maya that just doesn't m...

kujoe

I think the right term is "image board."

It's not exactly a friendly place though. It's filled with both the goons and the good guys--a place where you can either find the hardest of the core, or the most rabid of them.

And as moyism said, it's not the only one out there.

kujoe

Well it's not the fact of it being sexy. But I think it'd be only right and I'm sure Nagi and Bob have a lot of fans who would want a figure of them. Does it mean their in a bathing suit and flexing? No Most likely, it'll be the male fans who will buy TT figures--or perhaps that's what the makers h...

kujoe

Yes, that's right. Of course, fighting skill also matters and I'm sure the Takayanagi Clan has that too. Their True Warrior legend is somewhat indicative of that. I guess in this what-if scenario, it also depends on how many Dragon Fist users the Nagi Clan has and how many among them have mastered i...

kujoe

That's really strange. The kanji for the name of the school (Toudou Gakuen) would be "overall; relationship; ruling; governing" "road-way; street; district; journey; course; moral; teachings", and of course, Gakuen (just a type of school.) So they really took some liberties. I'm suprised they would...

kujoe

The thing I wonder is if the nagi family can take on the other red feather families by themselves. I mean that dragon would prob eat up everyone's abilities and use it for its own. Damn greedy dragon. :roll: Nah... I don't think so. Even though the Dragon's Fist can eat the abilities of others, it'...

kujoe

Plus, Tokyopop's work on it isn't so bad either. It's "safe" to go for their releases--that is, if you're prefer to read the manga in English. I've always been curious about thier work - I've been meaning to buy one or two of the GTO translations, since I translated the first 10 volumes or so mysel...

kujoe

GTO is a whopping 25 volumes. Personally, that's a lot.

Plus, Tokyopop's work on it isn't so bad either. It's "safe" to go for their releases--that is, if you're prefer to read the manga in English.

So yeah... Happy buying.

kujoe

^I think I know where you found that pic, moyism!

I just saved that into my hard drive a while ago.

kujoe

The Nagi family has been a sort of police force who come knocking at your door if you've been a naughty person. Yeah, I've seen it in this way too--besides the fact that the nature of the Dragon's Fist is sort of "controversial." In a way, that's why they're called exorcists. It's just sort of iron...

kujoe

Yeah, GTO would be a good manga series to pick up next. It's a got good mix of everything, and the artwork is noteworthy in my opinion. Since you're also into Tenjo Tenge, you might want to try Air Gear and see if that interests you. It certainly has a lighter mood than TenTen, and you might enjoy t...

kujoe

Also can't see Mitsuomi being killed off easily; there's going be some big consequences to that or/and how he would die. LOL, nagi/maya relationship to get back to "norm"... good one. Well, I'm not sure if you just made a typo error, but he said "out of the norm" not back to it. :wink: I'm not sure...

kujoe

moyism: Hey, thanks for the compliment. :wink: I'm still wondering about Masataka though. Seems kind of shallow that everything he's been through so far is just for the approval of Mitsuomi. I'm hoping he has more going than just that.... hmm. Masataka's predicament does seem kind of shallow for no...

kujoe

I do think that Aya has somewhat suffered due to her power--though when her experiences are compared to Shin's, hers seem to be quite trivial and even silly. Because of being born with the Dragon's Eye, she can't help but see those things which even she doesn't want to see, and I guess that tears he...

kujoe

the strongest fighters in the school have suffered for their strength in one way or another I was asking about that one, sorry I should've bene more clear :P And I asked nothing about anything that happened after volume 11 :cry: Sorry if I wasn't being clear. Anyway, HappyStealer pretty much nailed...

kujoe

Nagi isn't the strongest inside the school. But he could be...in the future. However, we aren't even sure of what this "strongest" really means at the moment. If you've noticed, the strongest fighters in the school have suffered for their strength in one way or another--so we'll see how this turns o...

kujoe

I've noticed that American comic books generally tend to go "up, close and personal" when it comes to comic book covers, but this is just too much. From the looks of that pic, it looks like some low-res mess. But the lettering of the title...! Man, I really hope that's not the final draft of the cov...

kujoe

Well, you can always hope for someone out there to actually get the source and make a wallpaper out of it. It's probably a matter of time more than anything else...I think.

The only way to make sure is if you buy it for yourself.

kujoe

Wow....

That's some sword, but how can anyone use something like that in an actual fight? Used against people riding on horses perhaps? I guess the swordsmith really liked what he was doing and forged that sword from an artist's point of view.

kujoe

Have you guys seen the cover? I really didn't like the design, and much of the original artwork (including Aya's panties) was cut out of it. Hopefully the interiors will make up for it. I presume you're referring to the original cover from volume 1. This might sound like a perverted question, but h...

kujoe

Jeez...Do I even have to explain that? :wink: Like you said so yourself: Manga is not my life, I just love reading manga as *entertainment* Personally, (and I'm sure I'm not alone in this..) I believe that a line must be drawn between our hobbies and our workaday lives. It's as simple as that. :wink:

kujoe

Or a P2P program like emule.

kujoe

Yeah, I can understand that. I guess Fugu's explanation says it better in an indirect sort of way.

As for me, I'm not really ashamed of it. I just prefer to take things in moderation.

kujoe

Well, let's not make a big deal out of this Banorac. I guess you just explained it for yourself. Just turn your statement the other way around. Manga is not my life, I just love reading manga as *entertainment* And the reason why I apologized was for the sake of courtesy more than anything else. :)

kujoe

I take it your talking about cosplayers and stuff ? Well even *they* aren't ashamed for being otaku, otherwise they wouldn't dress up in public :D Just think it's kinda stupid to be ashamed for who you are and what you like :) Nope. There's a good reason why the stereotypical otaku have been consid...

kujoe

I'd be too paranoid to display them in the open where someone might accidentally break them or something. I'd be paranoid someone might find out that I own them. hehehe :lol: Even though I am fascinated by these anime figurines and greatly enjoy watching them, I can't picture myself actually owning...

kujoe

http://natsumemaya.terminus.net.au/images/figures1.jpg The third Maya from the left (of the picture, not your left ) is the volume 9 figure, good luck tracking one down though :) What is Yomiko Readman doing in that picture? :lol: Nice collection. I like Aya's kicking pose figurine. Hmmm... Let's s...

kujoe

Great stuff as usual, hitori.

I like the Maya cosplayer wearing the black tanktop--probably the prettiest and the most faithful to her respective character I've seen so far.

kujoe

Thanks for the heads up, EliteF22!

It'll take a while before the group catches up to what's already been out for years--but still, I'm just glad that there are actually some people out there working on this.

kujoe

Ahh, how sad indeed. Too bad the OVA series never got to finish the entire story of the manga.

I think I have one volume tucked somewhere in my hard drive though. Just one volume, for crying out loud!

kujoe

Some people may be pleased (that's sarcasm, BTW) to know that the chapter of Egawa Tatsuya's Genji Monogatari is basically an extended loli scene :roll:. Correct me if I'm wrong--isn't Egawa Tatsuya the same guy who did Golden Boy ? Jesus, and here I thought "loli-sque" stuff was the last thing he'...

kujoe

Well, what I'm also trying to say is, when was the last time you saw Bunshichi losing as the main showcase in one manga volume? You know, the kind that would match the scale of Nagi's loss against Ishiyumi or Mataza's loss against Nagi? (Oh my god! That would be blasphemy! :P ) His strength was alre...

kujoe

i dont like the fact that when shin uses his dragon eye he becomes a god and unbeatable. it makes no sense how this teenager beats fu chien like he was nothing. but what can you do. seems to me like the natsume family powers are way more powerful than any other. shouldnt they be the leader of the f...

kujoe

I thought Masataka uses Mental Universe or something? What Chinese art does this come from kujoe? And what are the names of Fu and Masa's styles? I got my info from the Ultra Jump Special interview. (or from my memory of it... :wink: ) You can check it out, since I could've gotten the facts wrong. ...

kujoe

:? Where has it got them? The manga has been sort of cryptic with the history of the Nagi Clan so far, but I'm referring to the part of where it says, "Hated by demons and humans alike for centuries..." I believe Fugu also has some translation notes with regard to as to why the Nagi Clan could be p...

kujoe

The 8th Dragon Gate abilities aren't perfectly all-powerful as we already know. Each user always has to pay a price (in one way or another) for having such a power--be it in the realm of the physical as with the Nagi Clan or in the realm of the psychological for the Natsume Clan. Moreover, not only ...

kujoe

I bet even I can get it here from the Philippines. The "where" isn't really the problem, akira. The real problem, depending on where you look, is the availability...and perhaps the price. That's where your people skills come in.

kujoe

It's not so difficult to understand, that with a description like that, how anyone with the Dragon's Eye would be in danger of possibly losing his or her mind. To cope with such a power can sometimes be quite something indeed to the point that it can drive some people to extreme preventive measures ...

kujoe

Well, yes and no... Some scenes were pretty sick. Especially when murder was involved. I was just saying that although Enma's scenes were not really all that hardcore at all, they just weren't appropriate for TJTG. I mean, Tenjou Tenge has it's share of sex and violence, but I think that really gru...

kujoe

Well, personally, I don't think this the type of book you buy for the sake of erotic appeal. It seems to be more aimed for the die-hard collector in mind. From what I can see, at least half of the book is composed of Oh! Great's previous works. :? Well, if getting a "Naked Star" once in several year...

kujoe

For something that is supposedly "porn," the story about the woman and her reflection and the tragic spaceship story are actually quite interesting. The visual content didn't really bother me one bit (I've seen worse.) and I would definitely consider this a worthy purchase for any Oh! Great collecto...

kujoe

Wow.

That Maya cosplayer really did a great job. Her work on the hair alone speaks for itself--not to mention brandishing a sword that actually looks like one.

kujoe

would be nice to actually START the tournament though. I mean, 13 volumes in to show what.... 2 months passed? Not that I don't like how TT has been so far, but it'll interesting to see the various fighters in the school tournament like in the Past Arc. Well, not if the tournament just pops out of ...

kujoe

Almost forgot, in my opinion this chapter shows the weakness of manga's chapter-format. It wasn't bad, but it was way too hectic. I think the flow of events in this chapter was just too quick. Oh! Great didn't even bother showing what happened after Souichirou was brought to Souhaku's place. (So fa...

kujoe

man, if you think about it having a dragon's ability/gate isn't all that hot. I mean sure, you'll get some kickass unique power that wouldn't be possible through "ki" techniques but it'll will have some serious (physical and mental) downfalls. Yeah--even the Dragon's Eye has its problems. However, ...

kujoe

For a show that runs after midnight and is more seinen oriented, TJTG has been doing rather well. In general, it pulled 2-3% of the audience, on par with such seinen shows as GANTZ, Monster, Saiyuki Reload Gunlock or Samurai Champloo. That's good to hear. It's still a big "if" though. As for a prob...

kujoe

I just saw this chapter for myself, and I did find it somewhat interesting. Finally, we get a peek into Souhaku's domain and it seems he's been training his son to use his powers by instinct. (...or something like that. But why oh why Kabuto of all people? He should've just sent Kagiroi. 8) )It also...
