YnM

Yayness, I'm all caught up on 'Yami no Matsuei'! Although after Vol 11, I only had transcripts to read (they were good transcripts though with descriptions).

But, I'm now starting to wonder what's up with manga-ka's who create a big cliffhanger and then decide to put the series on hiatus for years. Makes me feel happier about my fanfics though. If professionals can go on hiatus so can I. :P

However, now I need a new series to read. I've been thinking of 'Rurouni Kenshin' since I hear it's good but it's so long which kinda makes me want to find something else. Preferably something finished as then I don't have to worry about keeping up to date each week/month (I do enough of that already). Hmm....

Kenshin is great, especially cause of Ao~oooshi. And I know you'd love him, cause Seto at 28 would look like Aoshi :D

Seto at 28 huh? Well that certainly is a plus towards that manga! I think it's the one I'm going to go with. ^__^

I like Bleach pretty well... it's not finished but if you decide you want to read it I can give you some links for it.

I thought about Bleach since I've been wanting to read it for a while but lately I only remember to read ongoing stories is if I see an announcement for it on my friends-list, lol.

I may start it anyway though so sure send me some links. ^__^

Yay, Rekall!
Have you started your YnM fic dabbling yet?

Oh, wait, I forgot to send you the links. Check your e-mail later today.

As for series to check out, there's Hana-kimi, which is finished, but not actually out yet. I cn link you to scanlated sights. (Or I could just burn you a copy of the scanlated disk I have and send it to you.) Here's a space to get the low-down: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/manga.php?id=2028
And here's the official site: http://www.wild-vanilla.com/guidance.html You'll need a language pack to translate.

Thank you so much for all those links! I'm already having fun going through them and reading fics. YnM has quickly become one of my favourite series. ^__^

Hana-kimi seems interesting. I recognize the title from where I download the most of my manga. I think I'll put it on my list of things to read in the future.

Actually, I understand that Rurouni Kenshin ends with Vol. 28, although I heard rumors of a off-shoot manga featuring Kenshin's student Yahiko. Yes, RK you must read/watch; them you too will agree that Aoshi is 95% positively a direct ancestor of Seto and that Seto & Mokuba's original family name was almost certianly 'Shinomori'!

Also have theory that Himura Kenshin might have been Aya's great grandfather! Hee!

I've already started reading it. I can't wait until this Aoshi guy shows up. ^__^
