Like Neon Genesis Evangelion, or Ninja Scrolls? I'm surprised this topic has never come up.

Not sure if I've seen Ninja Scrolls but I've definately seen Evangelion - what an ODD ending (but I sort of understood it... sort of).

Another good one is the El-Hazard series by Pioneer (3 videos) very good and very funny.

Desuma Malevois 11-28-2001 09:45 AM

I'm not really into manga videos, but I do collect some manga comic books - 'Ninja High School', 'Gold Digger', and 'Dirty Pair'.

Sir ReGiN 11-28-2001 01:44 PM

I love manga!
Ranma and Kenshin, anybody seen them?
I understand Ranma has been on TV in the U.S, but not is sweden, so I have to watch them on the computer :(
And I'm always on search for more, that's why I'm asking ;)

Memnoch 11-29-2001 08:20 AM

All of it was awesome. The sequel was crap!

BALROGBANE 11-29-2001 10:33 AM

Akira and Wicked City are two cracking manga's. Try it you might just like it. Ninja Scroll series is O.K but a little childish.

Djinn Raffo 11-29-2001 05:11 PM

I liked Ninja Scroll.

Another awesome awesome one is Doomed Megalopolis. If you like evil and black magic you should check out this one out.

Wow, I'm also surprised that it had never come up before.
I love manga, some I've seen are Ghost in a Shell, Akira (hasn't everyone?), Violence Jack, oh yeah, I haven't *seen* Ranma, but I've read it, and found it great and there a few others I can remember but not remember the name of.
I've also seen this manga movie, the main character has to defeat these seven demons, and there's this little short dude with a funny hat, and a woman with poison running through her body.
Anyone know it?????

I'd forgotten about Ranma! I haven't seen the TV version, but I've read the graphic novels - Bl**dy brilliant! I can highly recommend them.
