Why would MS pick up OPM? There are already 2 groups translating it. Boon's translation is usually the superior one.

I cant imagine naruto ending that soon, and I hope this isn't an idea that Kishimoto explores in the future.l Its just a genre that I typically avoid.

Guessing the kid is Loser and the costumed one that appears is a robot. Also Hobo Batman continues to be a badass.

Adventure of Sinbad 1
Dad's kind of an asshole.
That's a lot of heavy shit to lay onto your 3 year old son dude.
edit: also wow, sinbad as a child is super chubby.

Wait, this Sinbad manga is a Magi spin-off? Should I read Magi before I start with it?

I mean right now there doesn't seem to be any reason to have read Magi first though it's possible down the line it may expect the audience to have some previous inform...
Wait Brotkasten you HAVEN'T read Magi yet?

No, I haven't read Magi yet ... you make it sound like some sort of crime. But it's on my list!

Heroman vol 3 (10 - 14)
Pretty excellent to see the assault on Skrugg base with Goggorr in C.C in manga format. I forgot that this ends essentially like its the end of the series once the fight is done, but am glad it continues for more. Am curious how they end this in two more volumes.
Joey was so cool in the fight going high speed all over the place and then Heroman Attack/Blast/Finish. Good fight scenes.

Smutterfly Effect 9
This manga is moving at an odd pace, but I feel like it's okay because there's more time to digest and mull over Kazuya's thinking. Everybody has things in their lives they want to change if they could, but I guess if you don't like the person you are, you have doubts about your ability to make the future better.

He did. He sacrificed a lot in order to make drawing Naruto easier, and more economical. It was stated in an interview somewhere.

That's an interesting way to say that the art in Naruto got flat and boring. But I guess you could make the same argument for Bleach.

To be fair, OPM's story telling crawls at a snails pace.

He came up with the ninja forehead protectors, because he didn't want to draw Naruto's goggles all the time.

Wow, Inoue did not sell me on those skeleton drawings. Surprised to see that he let that page be published.

Stay Gold 2
Hayato makes this so enjoyable. If Yuuji would only listen and ignore the age difference. Anyway, I dont see how he is even 13 he looks older at least and what not but I guess it is what it is. Like the art and story.

Kishi mentioned it in an interview in the first volume.
Sounds cluttered and boring. Man .. why did he had to do a tournament arc :/
Hope Bleach comes next

Fullmetal Alchemist
Earlier in the year, I bought the Fullmetal Alchemist manga boxset, and I was reading a couple of volumes a week until this past weekend. I ended up plowing through 14 volumes on Saturday and Sunday, staying up really late Sunday to finish the series.
I read the first few volumes of FMA when they were released and watched the first series and parts of Brotherhood, so I was familiar with the series, but there is something special about the manga. There was just the perfect amount of humor, action and character development along with a plot that kept the pages turning to make this one of my favorites.
The last few volumes and ending were awesome, I really enjoyed how it concluded.
Nearly three years later (the manga wrapped up in June 2010 I believe), are people still interested in FMA? Has anyone reread it or read it for the first time recently?

I started reading it recently. Only 3 volumes read so far but I'm liking it.
I read it for the first time about 3 months ago, loved it.

Yeah I read it for the first time December 2012, incredible series glad I read it
Is that Yuji Iwahara's new series? With the Tesla stuff? I forgot he had a new series... I should read that.
I buy and reread whenever a new VIZ Big volume is out and am still enjoying it very much. Take a look at Silver Spoon, Arakawa's new manga if you haven't already, it's not quite as action packed but the characters there are just as fantastic and the humor is the same as in FMA.

Ive been meaning to rewatch Brotherhood this year in my yearly revist of naruto, bleach, and fma dvds/bds. Probably this summer. The anime is kind of unforgettable even if the ending has a few significant scale issues.

Yes, its is. But the translations are so slow.

I will do that, thanks!
I thought that the original ending/turn it took stands on its own for sure. Was a fun series, and I thought the movie was a nice supplement.
A few of the later volumes of FMA have prologue chapters for the Wii game and the author mentions a PSP game. Were they any good?
Oh, and I love the extras at the end of each volume. They are consistently funny.

Didn't play them but games based on mangas/animes are rarely good.

yo these past chapter have been boring as fuck. Also, anybody else have a feeling that inoue is going on hiatus soon, art looked like shit.
also, Kishi is lazy as fuck with his art. He stopped trying to get better after he aped tesuya nishio/hirofumi suzukis anime designs.

I didn't know how to feel at the end of Getenrou. Definitely a great manga.
