WARNING

This is the last time I am ever going to say this. I believe I have mentioned this before. Do not ever, ever direct link to illegal piracy shit. This includes manga releases, manga scanlations, sites and apps which provide such access, etc. STOP DOING IT. This thread is for the discussion of manga, not for the exchange and distribution of illegal material. Don't ask, don't tell. Future offenses will result in normal moderation consequences. Do not reply to this message, just move along. If you have a question, PM me.
I'd edit the entire post if I were you.
 
This is kind of a big request, but can anyone help me find good scans of ALL of FMA? I've been reading through it with a friend, but as I go on, the quality of the scans is getting worse and worse. You can go to just about any manga site and you will find the same scans I'm seeing.

It starts off really clean but as it goes on, it keeps gaining this grainy quality to it. Just look at Al and Ed's suit to see what i mean.

snip

Don't mean to come off as a dick, but if you want higher quality then just buy the volumes. :/
 
It comes off as a little rude but yeah just be grateful there are even scans to begin with. You shouldn't be surprised when you can't find fabulous, perfect scans of something (you should be surprised when you can). Not to mention the entirety of FMA's scanlations are very good quality.
 
Also, to be clear, I wasn't asking the scans for myself. I already read the series and am happy watching the anime if I want to see parts again. But I'm in america and my friend lives in england, and I've been nagging him for months to get into the series. I was looking for the better scans on his behalf more than mine because he is petty and very well could stop reading the series over something as small as bad scans. I didn't mean to sound ungrateful about it or anything. I'm suprised that quality scans are something so rare though. What comes out weekly now is in great quality, and so are the scans of FMA from chapters 1-35 or so. After that, they get rougher. It seems strange to me that people who did such a great job cleaning up the scans just stopped about a third into the series and no one stepped up to do the same with the second third.

Tell that friend that FMA volumes are readily available at his local bookshop.
 
Hint: I don't think you guys understand what 'move along' means from a moderator. Excuses are pretty... bad. Most popular manga are quite easily bought.
 
Probably. I picked it up originally just out of, "Hey, I remember Genji Monogatari" and thought the premise wasn't that bad. Until it quickly went down the rabbit hole of aunt groping and cousin make-outs.
I picked it up for the aunt groping and cousin make-outs.
 
as for the topic: if you can buy it get those, if not roll with the scans and be grateful (and to be fair the scans nowadays tend to be of good quality) imo.


Many more, but Offered is a special, Koike-plot work. Very few things can rival it.

yo damn, i guess you can't have a manga drawn by this artist without his trademark crying lol. Need to check this out.

Kumagawa Box has been confirmed as a oneshot.

i can hear the crying from here
 
Nope, it´s one week off, one on, and then on off again, unless we get the chapters early. Than it´s 2 weeks straight off.

Of course this depends on what weekly series you're reading. One Piece, Naruto, and Bleach will probably follow the "unless we get the chapters early" schedule. Since the first manga thread One Piece, Naruto, and Bleach have always leaked during the holiday. Sometimes before or during (hopefully this year it's "during"), but they've always leaked. I remember a few cases where we've gotten spoilers during the break week and then a few days later we get the chapters, which is usually the "best" case scenario.

It's the other weekly series that are iffy this time of year. I could see Fairy Tail and TWGOK leaking early. Maybe (the hiatus announcement?) Hunter X Hunter.
 
Wednesdays will still be GODAday, even without GODA.
 
Sora no Otoshimono -

EXPLOSIONS

LOLIS

LASER SPAMS

BOOBS

WAIFUS

IMOUTOS

I guess it'll go back to normal SnO for another few chapters, which is good.
 
I'm here don't worry. I got more shitty harem manga to read.
And it is always appreciated.

Are you reading Gangsta and/or Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun? Those are the next two I'm going to pick up new. I think Scy mentioned he was reading the latter but I haven't heard of anyone reading the former.

Never heard of the first one, but the second one is apparently on my to read list for some reason. I will get to them after I finish my current backlog.

Planetes

Tanabe doesn't look that good. Don't like her hair.

Well the description on MU for Gangsta isn't turning any heads.
"You wanna get rid of someone? Nicolas and Worick your two neighborly gangsters also known as “Benriya” are for hire!"

It might be like a good seinen of Get Backers. I honestly don't know how it got on my list and that's why I was asking if anyone read it.

She looks cute in the anime. Well, like a plain type or something.
 
Medaka Box (First few chapters)

I've just started this one, and am only a few chapters in. He really piled on the characterization with Medaka, didn't he? Jesus, I should have figured that Nisio has no faith in the common man's ability to infer. Anyway, other than that, this manga isn't bad. The premise has been piled on, and things are starting to roll, albeit slowly.
 
Itokoi Chidori

So four chapters in and . . .

ch. 1 :
boy gets attacked and raped by a sword-wielding stalker girl with big tits; he likes it

ch. 2 :
stalker girl is his cousin; they 69 each other in the house

ch. 3 :
foreplay in the morning, handjob in a locker

ch. 4 :
three-way with a female ninja

Not porn, they said.

Excuse me, brb.

HAHAHA it was one of the first victims of the new Tokyo law.
 
So Kishi was at Jump festa this year(like always) and CyberConnect 2, the developer of the Ultimate ninja series/.hack/Asura's Wrath posted some questions and answers on their twitter.

Question: What would you change about the Naruto series if you could go back?

Answer: I would draw Kakashi without his mask. Fans expectations have gotten so high that now if I were to draw his face, they would get disappointed *laugh*

Question: When did you decide to have Naruto and Sasuke go on different ninja paths?

Answer: From the beginning.

Question: What is going to happen to Sasuke next year?

Answer: There is still much story behind Sasuke. His appearance will be more frequent next year.

Question: Which character do you want to play as in Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Generations?

Answer: Sasuke

apparently he drew something too, I hope someone was recording that.

Do people really still give a shit about how he looks without the mask?
 
Since someone was mentioning Shaman King, I went back to read the entire Chinese-translated volumes... and I'd just like to say that the pinnacle of the series has to be the Yoh-Anna love story. That entire arc is fantastic - just the right balance of characterizations, fights, editorial rhythm, melancholy atmosphere. It's a shame that the latter volumes lost some of this balance and got too zen.
 
What more could there be?

Tobi is future-Sasuke confirmed.

Fuiture past Sasuke from a different timeline?

And it is always appreciated.

Yeah, I read a bit of Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun. It's ... hm. It annoys me, I suppose? There's a lot of
relationship status flip flopping. Like, a fucking lot. By the end of Volume 3 there's been like five confessions and somehow still no dating nor any realization that either party likes the other. It's awkward
.

Maybe there's a payoff down the road for that kind of setup, since I do like the female lead a bit, but it didn't really "wow" me. I mean, I'll go and read it through eventually so I'm not really saying it's terrible or anything like that.

@Itokoi Chidori - Yeah, I'm not exactly sure how it can claim "not porn" with anything remotely close to a straight face.

That includes all SJ magazines. Fairy tail is on break this week, it will be back next week. But almost all major manga that i read go on vacation these upcoming weeks. I am thinking about picking up Sun Ken Rock to fill the void.
