Suichuukishi (Aqua Knight) by Yukito Kishiro. Ive just seen that on DailyManga while I was looking for some interesting mangas. Does anyone know if its any good?

You can get ch01(in French) in the ScanTrad section on this site if your interested.

Edit: Read the readme file in the chapter(its in french), it says its a stopped serie that Yukito Kishiro started when he did the first ending of BAA.(apperently he did more little series). There are more than 3volumes of this serie out. Supposed to be released in US since he got his scans from the US releases.

ALLRIGHT!!
finally, there is an alita page! but u guys seem to not read it or something?- here i am , a LONG time ass reader of alita and im so happy to talk on a forum about it!!

oh, and it;s MIYAZAKI kids! how can u not know who miyazaki is? well, i guess these days it more like ghibli studios, with miyazaki slapped on it to sell, but, mononoke hime guys!! dontcha remember?

and by the way, aquaknights=bad, at lesat in my experience. just like :ahH!! what the fuuck?> whyyy!???
and that's why kishiro started again with last order. he figured everyone liked battle angel so why not make the one last alita book into like 10+ seris? and it looks like hes making mroe $ than aqua knights, thanks god!

and heres my old school alita cosplay!!

Ummm.... is there a new scanlated volume of BAA out? Crazyankan seems to have stopped translating, at least there are no news on his page. Is anyone else still scanlating?

Gotta concur on that one. It was corny and stupid and pseudo-profound (in an idiot sort of way).

Well, just a matter of preference I presume.

well, everything is i guess. i personally dont have anything aginst mononoke hime, but i dont think it was quite as epic as some would say.


-thanks for the BAA

im actually not a big fan of last order, but ill read it just becasue i have this commitment i guess. i cant-not read it, u know?

Volume 6 was pretty good though in the end it was a tease. Perhaps in volume 7 we will find out what it was that Yoko had done on her last mission.

Crazyankan do you know of a comic store that ships English translations to Europe? I could probably get it in German, but German is really fugly when it comes to manga.

yes, cosplay is quite the odd hobby.

im actually planning on my next cosplying to be...CASKA!! FUCK YEA! im trying to make armor and stuff . then a few of her casual oufits. threr are really no decent cosplays of caska ive seen ( and ive looked). either the girl's boyfriend told her to be caska, or they actually saw it, but did a twice as bad job on it. (incentives)

so im gonna be caska.. like 5 times over! shes even tops alita in some ways..well, im not sure right now. i cant stand her being all...amnesia and shit. and alita really does kick as..so... im not sure.

what do u guys think? caska or alita=kicks more ass/better in general
