So I just finished Nausicaa.

I'm in that state of being half awake and not able to fall asleep because of all the caffine in me and am really fucking high right now, but even so I'm sure that was the best comic I've ever read and the best ending for anything I've seen in a while.

I heard there was a film adaptation, which I'll be checking out sometime later, but it'd really have to be somewhere around 5 hours long to even get close to doing justice to the story.


Everyone go read it. Right now.

I'd say my favorite mangas are the Rurouni Kenshin and Trigun/Trigun Maximum series. I can't stand shonens at all, but those are both really solid.

Also, I read this weird book drawn by that chick who did DNAngel. I forget the title, but it was about people being born as females and then choose to be males when taking on different roles in society. Confusing as hell since nothing was explained until the chapter ended and the author throws a bunch of footnotes at you and shit. Ended on a cliffhanger, and I haven't seen any others published.

I kinda want to pick up Death Note. I've been watching the dub casually at night when I working on stuff, and it's pretty good. Any verdict on the manga?

the only difference between the manga and the anime is the absence of a really mood-setting soundtrack and a really gay filler scene in episode 25 where L towels off Light's feet, which the writers tried to pass off as a bible reference.

So I reccomend the anime over the manga, yes.

yeah, the whole Near saga is really stupid.

I do love the finale, however.

Totally agree with you. In my school, you get socially lynched admitting you like anime and manga, because all those damn freshman give us a bad image, with their jumping around, yelling 'SEPHIROTH IS MY BISHY!" and wearing googles out of context.... There's a difference between liking manga and being a douchebag.

No there isn't, fuck you

Way to chime in to respond to a post two months late and defend youself with the cliched "Those other fans give fans like me a bad name".

BTW "being an anime fan here" meant HERE, as in, this message board.

Whoops, my bad, misread that.
But you have to admit, there are so many things out there that would probably be a lot better if there weren't those certain groups of people who run around acting like douchebags and setting the bar for how everyone else will think about it. Like trekkies. These days, when someone hears that you're a trekkie they almost always think of those fat nerds living in basements rattling of episode numbers. Because there are all these dumbasses, it just makes everyone else who likes the same thing but is more conserved about it look bad.

The new theme is kinda... epileptic. It kind of ruined the mood for me, after seeing a practically rave video before a show about murdering people.

Death Note - Great, intelligent story with a shitload of plot twists that even managed to keep my mum interested enough to finish the series. The visual style of the manga (ie, the Death Gods) was very interesting. Loved Ryuk, he made DN what it is as far as I'm concerned.

Bleach - Average story, but lots of action make it worth reading/watching.

Neon Genesis Evangelion - I'm really not sure what compels me to watch/read this. Humungous robot fight scenes are always a plus. Good characterization aswell. Definitely worth reading, although I'd recommend the anime over the manga.

I don't care for Ryuk too much (probably because his face is unpleasant) but L added some levity to the story. I kinda like Misa Misa too, only because she's so naive and Light just swats her away like a fly when she gets all excited and shit.
