does anyone here besided me read manga? they're graphic novels from japan. a lot of anime are based on manga (maybe vice versa, too).

how many do you have, and what titles? what's your favorite? do you think they're too expensive? do you borrow most of yours, or do you buy them?

i have fifteen of my own. titles i have are:
-speed racer #1
-chobits #'s 1-4
-love hina #'s 1-2
-pet shop of horrors #1
-peach girl #'s 2-8.

my favorites are probably peach girl, pet shop of horrors, and chobits.

i dont think i'll be buying any more love hina, because the storyline doesn't interest me enough.

at $10 for the average manga, which can be read in like an hour (if that), i think they're too expensive. i try to avoid paying full price, by buying at conventions, or on sale.

i buy or am given all the ones i've listed, but i borrow, too... especially from my best friend Shannon, who is the one who got me into manga and anime. i have Inu-Yasha #1 now, and next she's letting me borrow Nausicaa (i think i spelt that right... it's by Miyazaki, who made Spirited Away and Princess Mononoke) next. in the past i also borrowed angelic layer #1. the first manga i ever read was in like 1999, when i wasnt into anime... a friend lent me 'Ah! My Goddess!'.

it feels like all my money goes into manga.

hello, my name is ash and i'm a Mangaholic.

The anime is also good though it is scary when such young characters have such giant members.

My friend has a huge collection of manga hentei.
 
I don't have any manga, though I've thumbed through some at the comic store. Looks cool, but I spend most of my money on anime, video games, and bills.

since you've said you like the anime, and you quote Nicholas D Wolfwood in your siggy, you should get the Trigun manga. i think my friend said it was just recently translated, but i'm not sure of that. i saw it at the bookstore the other day, tho. it will probably be one of th rnext few manga i get.
i <3 trigun.
 
I have like 6 episodes of la blue girl, 3 of new anger, and others :D

I don't watch them anymore thoy.
 
Love Anime and Manga...don't own a lot of Manga anymore. Got hooked when a client of the hotel where I was working left his big-ass Manga book on the desk at check-out. Don't ask me the title, it was in japanese...couldn't read the thing, but the images rocked!

If you can't find a manga in physical form, try downloading it from DC++ or something...or you can always order it from Amazn or whatever.
 
i just added
-Trigun #1
and
-pet shop of horrors #2

to my collection!!
i also picked up a trigun for my friend shannon, too!

i spent $40 on anime in one day :)

BUT I LOVE IT.
