  • My only issue with Mangafox is that I can't download their archives, and I'm trying to format my manga for Kindle.
    You can scrape.

    Is there a program for that which you can recommend? Or just page through the books going "right-click>save image as?"

  • Thanks; I'll make use of it.
  • Actually, that may not work for Manga Fox because it doesn't give you individual links for each page. I used to use it on a site that does, but I forget what it was called.
  • Using batch descriptors with the DownThemAll extension works, I tested it just now.

    That worked great, thanks.

    Can anyone recommend a kid-friendly manga? My little brother wants to get into manga. Needless to say, I am pride.

    EDIT: That is, a decent one. I know about all the Bleaches and the One Pieces and the other shonens, but I'd like something he could stick with and really enjoy. I feel like he'd love the concept of Monster, but probably wouldn't actually get into it enough to keep at it.

  • FMA's actually pretty good. Pokemon Special/Adventures is great.
    What kind of non-manga does he like?
  • He went with FMA. I think he'll be satisfied.
  • Four years later and Shimoku still knows how to make Genshiken hilarious. Almost pissed myself when Sue opened that door.

    Sue and Ogiue is never not hilarious.
  • So has anyone check out Saturn Apartments?

    I saw it at the bookstore, and it the second volume. It looks pretty interesting. The Amazon review makes it sound even better. I love the title "Window Washers in Space."

    I think I'll have to pick this up soon.

    My parents have it at their house but I haven't read it yet. I did, however, read all their volumes of Twin Spica. It's about a teenager going to Astronaut School!

    That sounds cool too. I'll have to make a note of that.

  • Ayako was scary awesome :O
  • So Saturn Apartments is pretty good, I definitely recommend it. I'm almost done with vol. 2, and vol. 3 comes out later this year.

    I also picked up 20th Century Boys and will be getting into that soon enough. I also plan on getting Twin Spica as well.

    I've been on a big kick of reading manga and catching up on the pile of comics I have. Good times.

    My friend.

    Well I know you were giving it mad praise, so I figured it will be good. Plus it's a Viz Signature line, so that only seals the deal even more so.

    I was making a joke that you will understand later.
  • I was making a joke that you will understand later.
    Yeah, I thought about that a few seconds ago. You tend to do that. -___-

    Yeah, that's my style.
  • Just finished reading Peepo Choo via AWO's recommendation. The first two volumes were just sorta above average, but the third was amazing. Definitely worth reading.
  • Oh my god, my local comic shop has a really old selection of manga. I saw the Viz release of the A.D. Police manga and bought Project X: Seven Eleven, which is buisness manga. Also, every single Kazuo Koike manga ever released by Comics One is there in it's entirety except for the first volume. There are quite a few of those supposed "one and done" manga like the unnumbered releases of Maison Ikkoku, Crying Freeman, and Oh My Goddess.
  • If you see Volume 5 of Eagle, I need that fucker.
  • If you see Volume 5 of Eagle, I need that fucker.
    I saw what appeared to be two seperate releases of Eagle, one was a set of large black books (they only had books three and four) and a much slimmer more multicoloured release of which they only had volumes 16 -19.
  • Dammit. I need Volume 5 of the big black books. It's pretty much nowhere to find and where available it's priced into oblivion ($50 and more) and/or doesn't ship to me :/

    Is the third one out?
  • Picked up Eensy Weensy Monster, the new manga from Masami Tsuda, who also wrote Kare Kano.

    I picked it up on a whim, read the back, then looked at the art inside and thought, "This looks so familiar." I then looked at the author and double checked by looking at the Kare Kano manga and my suspicions were correct.
