oh god, I hate endings like that. If you are forced to end a series, this is not the way to do it, not everything needs to be revealed in every series. Like how 20th Century Boys ending was perfect, and awesome and abrupt but in a good way and they had to ruin that with a stupid sequel series that was trying to be clever but just came across as a marketing tool to sell 2 more volumes.

I just finished the first volume of "Adolf" by Osamu Tezuka, it was very entertaining and intriguing. The plot and characters entertained me a great deal. I'll definately be buying Volume 2!

I'm reminded I need to get some Tezuka manga someday (probably Black Jack).

And I need to watch Metropolis.

I've read just about all of the Black Jack manga series I can find. It's a great series to read because of how it can be funny as well as serious.

this is a really good idea, as I've found the quality of the jokes (as in, basically the same jokes) to be surprisingly different in both versions.

Detective Conan as always

I feel like re-reading Nodame Cantabile but I haven't started on Durarara yet. :\

I am really enjoying this last arc of Bleach, since a long time I haven´t enjoyed it. Each chapter is leaving me without words.

Finished Durarara in one sitting and I was left confused at some points. Found the characters interesting though. Just want to ask, how many chapters are currently released in Japan?

Going to start reading Chihaya Furu later. Time for bed! :)

I recommend you Cage of Eden. It's awesome, and you obviously don't mind a bit of ecchi.
