| Does anyone here like manga or anime?
If so, what do you read or watch? What is your favorite? What do you hate? Do you think the prices we pay are fair? | |

| I absolutely love anime and manga, I was probably meant to be Japanese XD
Aside from reading the annoyingly popular mangas like Naruto and One Piece, here are some things I've been reading/watching-
Gunslinger Girl Jigoku Shoujo (Hell Girl) High school of the Dead Soul Eater and I'm trying to watch Shakugan no Shana but don't have the time...
My choices are kind of typical for a boy... But I pretty much like any anime or manga with well-developed characters.
What kind of manga or animes do you like? | |

| Unfortunately... I do love Naruto (Not because it's famous,) but I ADORE Jigoku Shojo, and I have read a bit of bitter virgin before!
I'm on the internet constantly searching for good manga to read... my recommendation right now is "Lunar Legend Tsukihime." It's extremely good, a well made plot, but if you can't handle a lot of gore, I'm sorry... | |

| I have to agree with you, Prisoner of Hikki, I really think Naruto is getting annoying. TT_TT This is so sad to say, especially because I USE to love Naruto, but it's just dragging on so long and I think that it's getting away from the main plot. I think some other non-famous manga should be get more attention because I definitely prefer those (even though the ones I like ends up not being that long). I think people should make like an action/romance manga! XDD People would REALLY love that. I know that there are some out there but it's really bad because they don't know how to balance it out. D= I'd definitely read a darn good action/romance manga. Wouldn't you? | |

| I think the latest chapters of Naruto have been excellent! I mean, learning the truth about Itachi was seriously something. Right now, I say both Naruto and Bleach are doing an excellent job in their story. Bleach with its Past Chapters and Naruto with Itachi's true intentions. | |

| Well, I still love Naruto, but like WatashiNoItami said the current plot is getting too far from the main plot But this week's chapter wasn't disappointing at all! I liked how we finally got more insight into Itachi's past. It's character-development chapters like these that actually keep me reading the series. I hope the next chapters will be just as good! Hageshii_AME, did you know they're creating a third season of Jigoku Shoujo? It should be released in October! WatashiNoItami - I think action/romance sounds interesting, but there aren't very many out there Many writers choose between action or romance. But if there was such a manga, I'd really love to see how the writer balances the two out ^^ | |

| I really want to watch the animes "Nowhere" and "Bokura No (I'm leaning toward more of reading the manga then watching the anime) But I don't watch that much anime or read that much manga (Though I did love One Piece and Kingdom Hearts)
Their are a ton of animes I want to watch. But I'm to lazy to find them anywhere XP | |

| Me too Nintendofanboy! I really want to read/watch a lot of anime/manga but I'm just either lazy or just can't find the time. But I really don't like anime as much as I use to anymore! XDD
I watched anime ever since I was 3 and now I REALLY don't like watching it. I just don't like how most anime are drawn when compared to manga (if there is a manga version, which is most likely). The manga, since it's as long compared to the anime, are usually detailed and was spent time on unlike the anime.
Anyways, yea I really thought that the recent chapter of Naruto was VERY interesting. Probably is going to make Sasuke insane but I would like the story to go back to Naruto and the gang. D= I really wanted to hear more from them since it's been awhile. XDD To me it seems like Sai disappeared somewhere since they've been focusing on Sasuke a lot. | |

| The only Anime that I would watch now is Death Note. Why not read the manga? Well it just gives me a headache from all the crazy plot and stuff for reading too much. Watching Death Note is, in my opinion, better, but that doesnt mean the manga version of Death Note is by any means bad, its just my opinion. | |

| My manga collection is... too big. I keep meaning to reply to this thread after I've made a list but I never remember and when I do I can't be bothered. These aren't all of the ones I own but some of my favourites are Death Note, Fruits Basket, Naruto, Ouran High Host Club, Dr. Slump, Fullmetal Alchemist, D Gray Man, Reborn, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Vagabond, One Piece (although I've been really behind with this one) and the usual Clamp stuff. - Donovon-Bozu wrote:

Don't let the Narutards ruin it for you, the manga's a lot better than the anime anyway. | |

| xxxHolic is AWESOME. very clean cut layout style and simple, beautiful art. it also has probably one of the deepest philosophies and stories in all manga underneath it's simple facade. READ IT! Yuko Ichihara is CLAMP's most original character. oh, and if you have enough money, buy Clover, CLAMP's best manga ever made. | |

oh, and if you have enough money, buy Clover, CLAMP's best manga ever made. Oh I agree, I'm lucky enough to have Clover and even though it's short, it's utterly enchanting. It's a shame they didn't do more with it because they created such a beautiful, complete feeling world, you can feel it living beyond the pages you can see. Gorgeously presented too, pisses me off that I could only find vol. 1 used without the dust jacket. | |

| @ Donovon-Bozu ahhh I'll have to look into Clover & XXXholic <3 !! Oh & I haven't read Ultra Maniac but I want to I have Marmalade Boy by Wataru Yoshizumi <3 and I really liked that so I always wanted Ultra Maniac T_T @ Amai Wana Love Hina & Chobits are really great I wish they were longer too Love Hina had a really cute ending >o< And Chobits too <3 I'm collecting Negima but only read the first couple of books I see you also have A.I. Love You [Complete Collection: Volumes 1 - 8] Isn't that by the same artist as Love Hina & Negima or am I thinking wrong? Anyhow how is that? I never got around to picking it up though I was interested. | |

| (In Chronological Order) A.I. Love You, Love Hina, and Negima! Magister Negi Magi were all made by Ken Akamatsu. Chobits was pretty neat, but not the BEST manga CLAMP has made. Has anyone read Kobato, CLAMP's newest manga? It's pretty cool. | |

| Chobits was entirely awesome - watching the anime was an even greater experience for me. Chi is sooo cute.
@Blue: AI Love You was good; I personally think Love Hina and Negima are better but AI Love You is nice. | |
