Can you believe there are people still following Fairy Tail.

For like the first... 10? 11? volumes.
After that it became one of the best romance mangas I have ever read.

I should grab a volume or two...
People actually give a crap about Fairy Tail? I tried reading it and it was terri-boring.
Judging from what people say about it (worse than Naruto), it's a good thing I stopped.

There are plenty of reasons to follow Fairy Tail.
I can think of one (or two).

Rumiko warning: those 10-11 volumes are pretty much filler town.
Depends if you like her style of filler. I do.
They establish the characters pretty well though, and is important to set up the incredible final arcs.
lol, I thought at first you said chapters and I was like that's not bad if it's just 11 chapters. Then I realized it's volumes

Reminds me of Duckroll's statement about Bleach
Did you really pay for filler episodes?

Still worth a read if you can stomach the filler.

To be fair if you plan to own the entire series you might as well buy the entire series. Also if you're an anime only viewer unless you do research there really is no way to know what is or isn't filler. If/When I decide to pick up the rest of Bleach on DVD (I own the first season currently) I'd probably buy them in order, or save buying the filler seasons til last just to complete my collection.
Maybe they should do that for Heartcatch Precure II!
Bonus : French opening of Maison Ikkoku

Back when they changed the names of the characters because you know, Japanese names are too complicated for kids.

I've actually heard the anime was paced a little better aka faster, so you might like to go that route.
Don't forget to add in live action scenes to drag in the Toku crowd.

Bounts Arc and The New Captain Shūsuke Amagai are entertaining.
Almost finished Chimera Ant arc, read like 10 volumes last night. I never marathon manga like that but I was really compelled to see what would happen. Ant king = godly.
haha, amazing.

If you want mangagaf to stop reading shounen than do your part in reading Waga na wa umishi.
Hot-blooded ship salvaging. Scenarios include saving japan's economy and stopping an explosion that is equal to an atomic bomb (might be a slight exaggeration from me misremembering)
Art can be seriously gorgeous too.

I was planning to use my day off to read more Monster, but my boss messaged me that I have to have this e-learning done by Thursday for my management class at work. I spent the past hour doing it in IE (it doesn't play nice with FF) only to have it not give me credit. I contacted him and he said to do it again on Safari which works for him ;-;

I want to reread Monster sometime soon. I think I might give Pluto another try because my memory of the last half is fuzzy.
If Urasawa had picked a different Tezuka work to "re-imagine"/adapt like black Jack I would have been more down. Sorry, but Astro Boy aint shit.

Erza is by far the sexiest female in FT.
Still doesn't save it from being god awful though.
It has a worst protagonist than Naruto. Which is kind of sad.

Shiranu wa Omae Bakari 6 -7 (end)
Another manga finished. The last two chapters story was pretty funny and had lots of moments I liked, neighbors falling in love at first sight. Music playing moments, slight hand touching, blushing, and a swift confession after ms.misunderstanding. Excellent.

Hakim was originally going to be a genuine romantic rival for Emma's affections, but Mori quickly changed her mind.
100 pages sketched, check : http://ustre.am/UsQj

One chapter at 100pgs is like half the volume right?
Yeah pretty much.
Looking at Maison Ikkoku volumes, there are two editions and I think they are relatively the same? Cause the page number is very different for each volume so I really hope I don't end up missing bunch of chapters if I go back and forth between the two editions.
Ah I see. Probably for the better since he really had no chance of winning her over.

The content should be the same in both editions, the kanzenban version had 5 less volumes but with each volume having more pages.
I was not a big fan of MI, the last 2 or 3 volumes are fine yes but until then it's a clichéd romcom filled with dumb misunderstandings and indecisiveness to conserve the status quo. I don't see how the anime would make the pacing better if there are almost 100 episodes.

Well now the plot got compelling again. Though what does the antagonist and mastermind even want to get out of this especially since there is a third party invading here too.

Emma vol 7 End?
These double pages are awesome. The art really improved a lot and Mori started giving more details to the clothes and backgrounds. Next manga Mori draws should be fashion based somehow.
Last volume pretty much wrapped up the story neatly. And I think the main story did end? There are 3 other volumes but they supposedly cover bunch of random daily events of the other characters, but I think they will show what happened afterwards to Emma, Eleanor, and so on. Oh and there was some glorious Adele fanservice. Funny how Hakim was missing the entire time, but the last volume him and his harem were everywhere. I do hope we get a story of how he became friends with William.
