favorite manga (japanese comic)
 

i for one like D. Gray man, but i wouldn't be surprised if the majority of the people here liked Bleach and/or Naruto.

I like 666 Satan from Naruto creator twin brother. I also like Toriyama Akira's Manga Theater Vol.1 with many short stories that he did before dragon ball

i like the ones that are recycled as toilet paper, then at least you're only looking at shit and not manga :x

harsher, slightly less snappy response: if you burned a manga book and made concentrated lye out of the ashes and injected it straight into my eye, it would only be about half as painful to me as looking at a (pre-burned) page of that stuff

What if I made Origami Kittens out of them for you?

only if they were printed on only one side and you made the origami kittens so the blank side was all that was showing

but it would still probably be a little bit creepy to look at, with the knowledge that gross manga is inside

I wouldn't even be able to touch them in order to fold them :(

i probably shouldn't be so harsh on this thread because at least it wasn't posted in the art shit forum

No, you have every right to be like this. Manga is responsible for my sisters death.

how?

o and in response to ElPila666
666 satan is also pretty good, but i dont like how they named it O-part hunter for the english translation.

She asked me to give one a try and I beat her to death with a baseball bat. Thanks for bringing back the bad memories.

your welcome :party

you guys suck

I hate to break it to you, but being an anime/manga fan over here is kind of like being black in the south.

why?

Manga ruins your mind to where you start to ask one word questions.

because i'm terribly racist against j-wads (japanophiles)

well its no different from american graphic novels except for different art style and its black and white.

and it's awful, don't forget it's awful

i'm not a huge fan of "graphic novels", either

Well see... you are lying to us. You obviously feel it is very different because of the title of this thread. Why do you have to lie to us in order to defend your little Asian fetish.

This thread stinks, is someone talking about m*nga here :x

I remain steadfast in my opinion that Ranma 1/2 is a good comic :o

Ok, not GOOD good, but it's still fun to read

well im just trying to see what people like coming out of Japan.

Porn and video games, and that's it.

well im just trying to see what people like coming out of my butt.

WHERE IS THE APPRECIATION, PEOPLE? >:

I will admit that there's some oldass jap comic from the fifties where the drawings looked pretty nifty. Not Asterix nifty, but nifty nonetheless. It was called kekekekeno kitaro or some shit.

I bet it's going to be hard for you to "not" talk about japan.


Liar

THIS IS WHAT I HATE ABOUT YOU. Are you out to offend nobody? Can you not stand by an opinion all the way without the fear of making waves?

I actually like GW a lot better now, I can't think of a recent act of massively annoying faggotry

I do still hate anime, though

Every word he says is permeated with shit and I'm going to leave it at that.

there aren't a lot of different people in this thread.....

Is that your attempt at Engrish?

no i speak fluent english.

Oh ok, I thought you where trying to act Japanese.

:confused:

oh u saw that? ya i put on a girls flashy pink coat because it was very comfortable, and i put on a dress in a play, in front of a lot of people. i feel proud :lol

You will get along with Chojin. I suggest you go over to General Blabber and vote for him.

chojin? general blabber? what?

Lousy! >:

I dress like this all the time:

manga is for people who like bags of dicks.

Chojin = The big cheese, the boss, the man, and he wears pink frilly pants sometimes.

General Blabber = Where you should go to see what's going on.

What = http://www.i-mockery.com/forum/showt...php?t=69699135

well wat if im bisexual? WAT THEN HUH?????? (not saying that i am)

ah thx

I like that you haven't cried like a little baby. But your still a manga lovin douchebag.

sez u! (my pathetic attempt to sound tough)

:lol

neko desu desu kawaii itadakimatsu!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ^_^ KEKEKEKEKKEEKE



>:

Even Wolverine loves manga

I read a few: Black Cat, King of Hell, Banya, and Get Backers.

I thought Fist of the Blue Sky (a sort of sequel to North Star) and Slam Dunk were good reads.

o ya i read slam dunk. only comes out in volume 1 here in september tho

but its still really good

Sam.

Hey, Sam. Yeah, come here boy, I won't hurt you. Sit on papa's lap. I'm gonna tell you something.

You speak better japanese than 99% of animefags.

Just puttin' it out there


Oh and uh, yeah. That Wolverine thing? That's a bannable offense.

I hope that the upcoming Wolverine movie were be based on that manga

There's an entire rest of the internet devoted to exactly that, fluffkomix. Leave our last precious stronghold alone!

Edit: this was in reply to the last post on page 1, as I did not realize there was more than one page :(

It still applies

I wish I could ban.

Esuohlim is bad, but he doesn't deserve to be banned. :rolleyes

Yeah stop banning milhouse already, sheesh :rolleyes

One time in college during a speech class we had to do an explication of a song. This guy decides to do a song from an anime in Japanese and during it some other faggot raised his hand and tells him that it is not the correct translation and then they got in an argument about it. My dog died that day too but I was too desensitize by the tragedy of the human condition I witnessed.

Thanks for reminding me of the worst day of my life, terrible thread.

I prefer to read things left to right instead of having to do something different just for something as shitty as manga.

You're pretty stupid aren't you?

Put a sock in it, Noodles

My point being that Manga is not the deciding factor for books being read right to left. Flame properly or not at all.

cardcaptor sakura because i'm gay

The only manga I've read is Angel Sanctuary no. 1. It's about this Japanese, teenaged boy who happens to be the reincarnation of some (female?) angel. He also wants to fuck his younger sister, but that's okay because even though he is her biological sibling, he's an angel. Or something like that.

Manga's so screwed.

Vampire Hunter D.

That movie was boring and I'm mad I taped it.

Man scratch that, what a shitty comic

They skipped so many major plot points that I would have had no idea what the fuck was going on if I hadn't seen the movie

You bags of cunts need to stop bumping this thread

"Text is greatly abridged, so reading these isn't tedious torture."

You're reading it for the wrong reasons. >:

Bumping this thread to suggest that everyone read Nausicaa. Immediately.

No way! A Nausicaan stabbed Captain Picard in the heart! I'll never forgive those bastards!

YOU TALK AND YOU TALK BUT YOU HAVE NO GRUMBAAGH :lol

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. >:

sorry i'm too busy playing domjot

s'cool, bro



man, the movie changed the original story completely like halfway through :<

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?

I know this guy GW, you might like him.

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.

Okay. Can't say I like it now that L's gone, though :<

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.

Man, L makes that series.

And Ryuk should be more involved.....ALL THE TIME.

In fact...they should just have the adventures of L and Ryuk...yeah...

Shutting up...

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.

guys talk about something i can make more lame star trek references in response to

or at least talk about berserk, and we can discuss how the dude with the big sword fought off evil otto in that one issue

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.

hat this thread

Hat?

Hmm....I just want to kill misamisa.
NERD CHAT! YEAH!

death note

more like brown noise

I know thats what comes out of your mouth everytime you talk.

better out than in, fartsucker

:explode

aw man i dn! though i gotta admit, i got bored of reading it halfway thru the near saga, and then went to my local bookstore just to read the last volume to find out what happens. poor light :obey
