This manga rules I don't even care.

For those of you who don't know it's a gender-flipped Gundam office romance/comedy. Perhaps the best possible manga with those qualities too!

The heroine of course is Char as an office lady.

I read that knowing nothing about Gundam whatsoever, and I still enjoyed it. The expressions and things are really adorable, and the writing isn't bad either.

There are about a billion potential awesome shots from this manga, but I went with part of one of the early chapter pages because it distills the focus of the manga perfectly.

Thanks for posting this, just got done marathoning it as suggested. Totally worth it.

Yeah, just finished it. That ruled, and I wish it were longer, since the ending kind of had the feeling that it was cancelled suddenly.

It's not over yet! I think the scanlations are on chapter 210, but there's something like 230 chapters. So there's a little bit more. Chapter 206 marks the beginning of the 22nd volume. Since we haven't reached the end of volume 22 yet, there's 2 more volumes to go!

Hopefully it'll be tied off well enough by then. I'd have loved to see it a bit longer though.

To be fair most of my experience is second gen Go Nagai which is to say remakes of his projects by other people (re:cutie honey, getter robo, etc)

She's laying on her back with her head on his lap turned away from him. That is not a position conducive to head.

My first thought was "that looks odd" but indeed it looks like she is on her back with her face pointed straight down, not slightly turned towards us, which would still be bizarre but less anatomy defying. In either case it's a weird drawing.

what up,


For fans of horror manga, I recommend Fuan no Tane. I read it a couple years ago and stumbled upon it again. It's a collection of short stories that are apparently based off urban legends and such. Some of it's pretty hosed up. But it's a good read.

Despite reading Monster and 20th Century Boys I hadn't touched this one yet. Chapter 1 is already more interesting than anything I've read in the last year. It would be nice if more (or any) authors did this kind of manga instead of Moe-chan x Shounen-Kun 41: ♥ Star Battler ♥.

It's probably just my personal taste, but I found Pluto to be Urasawa's greatest work yet. You're in for a good read!

I think its helped by the relative shortness of it compared to other Urasawa series. As much as I love them they can become overly complicated the longer they run. He does love his anti-proton bombs though

Should I repost the Sengoku Youko thread I made back then? It seems like they're back to more regular (monthly) updates, and the old thread got archived. Though maybe it doesn't have enough activity to warrant its own thread.

I'd say go for it. Activity within the Seinen/Shounen megathreads aren't a great metric for interest, a lot of series get much more discussion when they get their own thread. Advance of the Giants and Tower of God come to mind as examples.

Well, don't do it right away. Wait for the next chapter.

I enjoyed the manga so much I did have a thread up for it for a while, it died a quiet death but there were a few people following it for a bit.

Pretty much every chapter, especially the ones introducing each Rider, has some kind of awesome moment that should be enough to convince people.



Kamen Rider Spirits is basically the phrase "Hell yeah!" in comic form.
