Re: Series like Kaleido Star or Princess Nine?

Princess Tutu was also the first to come to mind for me, esp. the part about feeling good after you've watched it.

Re: Recommendations for newer manga or light novels?

All of Yukino's recommendations are good ones. I also really love High School Debut, but that's been running for a little over a year now so they're already up to volume 7.

Re: Viz Acquires Urasawa's 20th Century Boys and Pluto

Indeed, and they are gorgeous. Pluto also has some very nice packaging, akin to Real. My copy of 20th Century Boys will be in today. :)

Re: Clamp School Detectives: Yay or Nay?

Actually, CCD is pretty old. It was originally released on VHS by Bandai and they are *finally* putting it out on DVD after much pestering from fans.

Re: AoD Special Column: Manly Manga For Men (And Women!)

I'm a woman who loves manly seinen manga, so many of these I already knew about or have been collecting. Somehow, though, I'd never managed to learn what Old Boy is about before now. It sounds...

Re: Itazura na Kiss licensed by DMP

It's definitely getting the omnibus treatment. ICv2's article (http://www.icv2.com/articles/news/14171.html) is more clear on this point than the official press release.

I'm really excited about this series (mind games for the win!), but I have a couple questions. Is it really just seven volumes long, as ICv2 claims? Also, is it shounen? The Manga Comparison chart...

Re: Monster#18 (last volume)

Mine is on its way. This is one case where the gorgeous color pages were definitely the factor that compelled me to buy the first one.

Many of these licenses now have cover art. The one for Ooku (http://www.simonsays.com/content/book.cfm?tab=1&pid=652151) confirms that it will be part of Viz's Signature line.

Re: Blade of the Immortal question
