Wait till you see the prototype (if you haven't already). There's a quantum leap in style and detail between even that and the first of the biweeklies. What kinds of things do you draw, btw?inkthinker wrote:I like the series because, as an artist, I'm entranced by Miura's attention to detail combined with his skill at depicting action. He continues to impress, too, with his recent scenes around the city and at the docks showing that his skill at architectural depiction has improved tenfold since his early days.
On a completely unrelated note, I thought I would mention a small, silly oversight from my translation of ch 262, mainly concerning that weird "Papal agency thing" (Too lazy to check what page exactly, but the strange phrasing should be enough to jog anyone's memory). Apparently it was really some variant of "The Vatican" -_-
It was bugging me so I tried to look it up again after it was released and am sheepishly confounded that I could have missed the entry in all of my dictionaries before. Anyway, just had to get that off my chest before I move on to 263 (which is once again very awesome).

Fighting for your dream is one thing but sacrificing all your comrades/"friends" for it is another.
And only 2 more hours and 35 minutes until release day here in germany.

I dunno, I think Grifith is too charismatic to be a "bad guy". As Femto he is totally hatable but when he came back as grifith you dont quite hate him as much, thats what i thought at least.
And i wish I were in Germany too! The food and language is awsome besides the fact that I would love to only have 2 hours to wait till the next chapter is released.

And I don't know, what's so awesome about the german language? Is it sexy? Should I try to use it on foreign girls?

I wouldn't recomend it. It may be just me, but german, as well as a few other languages, just seems like an angry language. Like if someone said something in german to me, even if it was "Pleased to meet you, my you are handsome, and you look like you have a big penis" I would still think they were threatening my life. No offense, that's just how it seems to me. Now as for a language to impress someone, I'd say french or spanish, french especially. It has the opposite effect as german IMHO, even when you swear at people. Like the Marovingiate (sp?) in The Matrix: Reloaded said, "It's like wiping your ass with silk"Necromancer wrote: And I don't know, what's so awesome about the german language? Is it sexy?

German has a bad image, probably mostly thanks to Hitler/Nazis and Schwarzenegger. But when you learn it and hear normal people speak it, it has a nice charm, like I think all languages have. You just have to look at it from a different perspective.
French is certainly smooth and beautiful, but I kinda get stuck-up feeling from it sometimes, too. Spanish is a language ideal for poetry, (although I am probably biased on this because I happen to adore a number of poets who wrote in Spanish). It is also a fiery language, I feel. Portuguese is probably the sweetest sounding of the bunch, it's smoother than even French. Italian is supposedly the language of lovers, I think because it sounds so passionate.
I like the sound of Arabic though (I don't understand it, but I get a very beautiful, mystical feeling when hearing it).
I could go on and on, I guess, but I love languages, so it's hard for me to dislike any language, I suppose. (Although there are times when German and Japanese both drive me crazy, for entirely different reasons). :-p

Well I've heard that Swedish sounds very melodic to those who dont understand it. When I was living in the Holland I actually had a girlfriend named (Off all names possible) Inga (Oh the irony). She had no ties to Sweden whatsoever, but she for one liked it when I talked Swedish.
Can you talk Elvish Starnum?
I've always wanted to learn that, but never found anyone that can talk it which I can learn from.
And I also like Japanese by the way
