Was almost as crappy as "Death book" which I alos dropped after 2 volumes.
And I also read in the first chapter where the author has written he´s narutos writers twin brother. Atleast Naruto had a somewhat interesting story at first :P

Death book?

Dont tell me you mean Death Note?
I hope he's not. Comparing 666Satan and DeatH Note would'nt be cute.

666Satan is the crappiest shonen out there, right after inuyasha.

Hrm, I can´t really remember if it was Death Note or Death book.
anyways its about a book/notepad that if you write a name of a person in it that person dies within a few minutes.
So perhaps your right there. Anyway I dropped it after 2 volumes because I thought it didnt really go anywhere.
Are you saying I should continue to read it because it gets better ?

It gets beyond better.


It one of the sickest,darkest and most thrilling manga i have ever read.



The things Light does with the note and how he thinks he is gonna rule and change the world is interesting to see.

Spoiler coming so dont read if your going to read "death note"

I was awaiting the time when someone else also got ahold of another Death note book. thought Ryuuku would give the other one he had (since he has two of them) just to see some drama, but i was wrong there, but that might still happen :D

Hmmm... Le Cirque De Karakuri aka Karakuri Circus. Not bad but as typical of shounen manga, the fighting scenes are endless.

I remember 666 Satan. The art was pretty good but the story was quite similar to Naruto. Now, if it'd been published before Naruto, I wonder what would've happened.

Edit: Blah, does anyone know how to prevent your email address from showing?

Holy crap, Kurumada just said out of nowhere that he´s drawing a new Saint Seiya story that will be directly related to the Hades saga.

Now this gentleman, is the shit.

Anyone read Peacemaker, I just read the first two volumes and its pretty good, of course its about the Shinsingumi so it is very interesting to see the inner workings.

Flame of Recca, but I've only read the first two volumes so far. Although, I hear it's really good. I'm looking forward to seeing for myself.

Welcome to the club of people who like Zetman but hate Kouga and his bull about Justice. You will find many of us in this forum.

i just started busou renkin. its okay i guess, but hard to read a lot of at one time. it doesn't have any really characters with depth so far. you just have the normal school boy and the mysterious warrior girl.(in fuku of course) but i have hope it will be better.

i also tried D. Grey Man, but with not a lot of luck.
i am attempting to get caught up with gantz though. i got really into the anime, and of course hated the ending to it, so now i must read the comic. i got vol. 14 in japanese by a fluke, so i really want to know what is going on.(since i cant read 80% of the kanji)

im also reading a lot of omanga stuff like uncivilized planet, real, honey bitter, and not by omanga (i think) gokinjo monogatari.

i started NHK a while back and when i have time i am reading many chapters to catch up.
i am starting to read Zetman as well, because i love Katsura Masakazue's art. Also i started I's for fun. the main character is really crazy, and has a lot of bad luck.


other than the normal berserk and stuff, that's about it.

Its sad to see you reading and stop reading mangas.

Ask here for recomendations so we can save you time by reading good mangas instead bad.


Basou Renkin sucks. D-Gray Man generic shonen both wasted my time too.


What do you like for genre?

Like fighting? drama? thriller? comedy?

Comedy Yakitate Japan,School Rumble,Midori No Hibi

Thriller Monster,Death Note

Action Change Guy,Priest,Island,Shin Angyo Onishi all these are manhawas that are too good to miss.

Well, Kurumada is starting a new Saint Seiya series this summer, it´s not Zeus chapter but rather a story about the last sacred war against Hades 243 years ago in which aparently Hades was friend with Pegasus.

Can´t wait.
