BTW, you can take a look at those Pinky Street figures at UJ website. http://ultra.shueisha.co.jp/UJ97/Hn97/tp_streat_106.jpg http://ultra.shueisha.co.jp/UJ97/Hn97/tp_seifuku_106.jpg There is also a cover for the 6th volume of TJTG anime. Bunshichi and Isuzu! YESSS!!! Geneon, please licence TJTG NOW...

MrProphet

It's out tomorrow, December 18!

And we are still on Nagi. 8(

But here's the preview:

MrProphet

I have 7.

MrProphet

I have all of the AirGear tankoubons, and i don't really know why I care. It's such a waste of money. It's like Oh!Great took all of TJTG ecchiness, multiplied it by 10 and then added a halfassed excuse for a story, maily cenetered on his obsession with rollerblading. It's lame... TJTG is not great ...

MrProphet

UJ January issue should be out this Saturday.

Shueisha hasn't yet updated its website, so no preview so far.

MrProphet

Umm... Kodansha is the legal owner of manga distribution rights. As in... worldwide. So it is licenced, and always was.

MrProphet

Something like "Strength of a Thousand"

MrProphet

It's all about the marketing. They don't want to be too blatant with the ecchiness on the cover, since that's what people base their first opinion on. DC Comics isn't selling TJTG to hardcore fans only. They have other consumer groups to think about. And some people would consider the cover too risq...

MrProphet

Mass-downloading, AFAIK.

MrProphet

By day, he is the mild-mannered clerk, Takayanagi-kun.

But when danger strikes he become.... The Super-Dougen!

It was a fun omake. Thanks a bunch, Fugu.

MrProphet

Maya is once again drawn out-of-style... as with all of his colored works

And Aya gets a new hair color... which one is it? The 3rd or the 5th?

MrProphet

Yeah, Mitsuomi's name is 高柳光臣, which is literally "Tall Willow, Vessel of Light".

MrProphet

Perhaps he is referring to the fact that Nagi could have been eaten by his Dragon...

Or that he exploded his Mom's arm...

Or that his dad is experimenting on him...

I dunno, take your pick!

MrProphet

Deamon-fighting sword? LOL

MrProphet

Um... because the drawing has Isuzu strapped unto some SM-looking contraption, for whatever nasty reasons?

Um... yeah.

MrProphet

No. It varies, but they've licenced it as "Tenjho Tenge".

Relax people, it may be just a promotional mock-up. This happens! And even it's not, you don't have to buy it. You have your scanaltion, or you can buy a Japanese copy.

So, relax.

MrProphet

The best guess is December 20. However... he took one month off. Then he took another month off...

Now I just don't know.

MrProphet

Lets hope it's just a mock-up

MrProphet

check hongfire

MrProphet

It's a doujinshi. Pretty mediocre.

MrProphet

By the way, is Maya/Mana the same girl? I thought not, they don't even look the same, but Agent Wax's comments threw me off...

MrProphet

That's one damn hot cosplayer... Maya and Mana, that is...

MrProphet

What? Two months of hiatus?..

Dammit, what the hell....

MrProphet

Maybe Tawara already went through that phase during his "Double Impact" stint, who knows...

Tawara is the oldest of the bunch, he has to be pretty experienced. We don't really know what he was doing before we met him and Shin.

MrProphet

This poll is weird.

TJTG gods, Maya and Tawara, are getting minimal love, while that dork Masataka is gathering all the votes.

Damn you, Oh!Great. Damn you for Volume 11.

MrProphet

I was never sure if the "36 families" included the 12 original Feather clans or not. If half of the families swear fealty to the Reds (and the other half to the Whites), then: it's 7+6+18=31 unique abilities. Also, Mataza's Dragon Claw is not a major ability. It's a sub-ability of the Nagi clan, Dra...

MrProphet

One good thing about the AonE release: 24 episodes + OST can be burned on 1 dvd-r. No can do with the bloated SHS releases. Video quality is pretty much the same, even though SHS has higher bitrate. It's not a noticable difference. And hey... TJTG has been out for a long time, so it's not a rush job...

MrProphet

AX is usually held in California, as far as I remember.

There is also AnimeExpo New York, help in NYC, obviously, but that's different.

MrProphet

They actually did 19-24...

Freaks.

MrProphet

The idea of the Dragon Eye is that he user "synchronizes" himself or herself with the rest of the world around him/her. So, not only does he know what's going on every single second, but he can see patterns that enable him to decipher and understand the past and the possible future. That's the main ...

MrProphet

Why? Power, naturally.

Because Takayanagi clan rules the other clans and Kago wants that power.

MrProphet

I think, his original plan was for F to betray Mitsuomi at the tournament and supplant him as the leader of the clans.

Now that Mitsuomi is on the know, I guess Kago is just going to go all out against Mitsuomi.

Anyway, the point is to eliminate that Takayanagi clan.

MrProphet

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 grue...

MrProphet

Well, if getting a "Naked Star" once in several years is enough for Oh!Great to stop putting stuff like what happened to Enma Enmi into TJTG, I am VERY cool with that! But, as it is... Naked Star is definitely not my type of manga (even considering hentai). The only story that I even remotely liked ...

MrProphet

Yeah, I already got it.

Nothing to get obsessed with, really, but an OK H-doujinshi. In my opinion.

MrProphet

Hmm... I looked at their old tracker bt.hongfire.com yesterday, nothing was there. Hmm...

Thanks

MrProphet

OK, is anyone sharing anything or what?

At least? point out the usual places. The usual places I know have got pretty much nil.

MrProphet

Well, untill we get some kind of a translation, I am stuck to guessing about the plot.

And SnoopyCool isn't exactly rushing this project.

MrProphet

Heh, yeah, I knew she was a he after they showed him with a bare chest. But I was kinda hoping, since Ikki isn't getting any love lately... He's too much of a "Nagi" for any romance. Although, I was kinda hoping with that Maya/Makiko-lookalike girl in volume 6. Although... Ringo would be hot too, if...

MrProphet

Yeah, I have up to 7 now... Air Gear is waaay too weird, but I can't resist Oh!Great's art. 8) Oh, and that girl - Akito/Agito is just strange.. but cute. 8) Saw BLEACH yesterday. It was pretty much same as the manga, 1 chapter - 1 episode. Little things were changed (like, Ichigo now looks much old...

MrProphet

Anyone living in the New York area and in need of some Aya-love, be sure to visit the Kinokuniya in Manhattan. I was there today to buy some BLEACH and Air Gear, and lo and behold, they had at least two Vol. 12+Aya figurine sets.

43 bucks each. So... if you want one.. there is your chance.

MrProphet

Anime was announced I think.. maybe a year or so ago. I remember reading about it on Natsume Maya's newsblog. You can check the archives, if you'd like, I guess.

So it's not just this sping and summer.

MrProphet

First Maya is pretty cool.... At last, the Cockroach Girl is portrayed correctly. Must have been hell to make the hair look perfect.

Madoka is cute... Shin and Mits would be too, if only they showed them better. The rest are ok, but not that great.

MrProphet

Well, it's out, you can listen to it. Here's the tracklist: 01. Bomb A Head! V (TV SIZE) 02. Tenjou Tenge Ban Gai Hen Drama 'Saigo no Obentou' Zenpen 03. Makenai 04. Tenjou Tenge 05. Maya 06. Aya 07. Tenjou Tenge 'Souichirou' Hen 08. Yuujou 09. Kyoui 10. Tagami 'Bushidou' 11. Shippuu 12. Toudou Gaku...

MrProphet

It's obvious that he is being mind-controlled by Inue [...] Still, kind of weird how Kabuto was quick to betray Kago. [...] How is Kago planning to participate in the tournament, since none of the F-members are from Todou? Where did you get that? I haven't seen any implications of him being mind co...

MrProphet

lol im glad that souichirou didnt inherit kago's creepyness Hey, what about that weird haircut? That's definitely Kago's! 8) Also, I have a strong suspicion that Nagi inherited some kind of an assholeness gene from his dad. 8) As for the dragon thing, here is my take on this: Makiko and Dougen were...

MrProphet

You mean this?

Hmm... intersting. I didn't notice. Lots of thing are very subtle like this case...[/img]

MrProphet

Isn't "finalized" the same as shipped? Because mine has been finalized since late August with a "Order has been processed.." mark, so I assumed it has already shipped. I selected the cheapest delivery, so I wasn't too concerned with it until now. So, what's the deal with TokyoCentral? Is "finalized"...

MrProphet

I am actually thinking not in terms of a larger budget, but more in terms of moving to a different, more liberal network. A satellite network would've been perfect. Moving to a satellite has done wonders to GANTZ... nudity, sex and bloody violence included. Not that Tenjou Tenge has a lot of it in i...

MrProphet

Btw, that pic of Makiko clinging to Souhaku reeaally reminds me of Maya and Mitsuomi. With regard to charcterization, I'd say that Maya and Makiko share a lot of similarities. In fact, it doesn't really surprise me why Nagi is more attracted to Maya. Heh. How very Freudian of him... OK, you just sc...
