Used to be when I still had money. I used to collect "Blade of the Immortal" and an obscure series called "balck and white," but I don't have money anymore, so I can't continue collect. Oh well.

lots of ppl are, no doubt. the thing about manga though is, as whats-his-face mentioned, is that it is so damned expensive. and if you just buy single issues (like, not collections) there seems to be little content for what your paying. i have a neo-genesis evangelion that i bought about a month ago cause i was considering reading the series, but um all that happened was some people were like 'emergency!' and all got in robots, all this with little or no dialouge. frustratin

i do however, collect the big volumes of ranma 1/2. they seem more worthwhile and fun to read cause its easier to follow.

I too have found MANGA to be quite pricey. However, though I would like to buy all of the MANGA I've seen I remain picky!

:) No problem. I was just bickering. I actually thought it was funny.

I dig the Manga style. But have only picked up the first few Cowboy Bebop and the first trade (issues 1-4) since I couldn't find CB #1.

It took a while to get used to reading backwards but fun.

I picked up the 2nd and 3rd trade paperback for Bebop. I highly recommend. They run 9.99 us and they have about 150 pages .. and 3 or 4 complete stories.

:D
