Hello! ^^

I got one more place to add for good original manga! Believe it or not, ebay is pretty good ^^
I found a copy of the Tokyo Babylon vol 7 manga, and while I don't know japanese (well, then again, I learned the characters for Hokuto's name 'cause Subaru screams it so much in the end :( ) , I plan on going to a web site and checking out some translastions.
w/shipping the total came to $8 US currency.
The only thing I would also warn is that to look at EVERYTHING. I saw the whole TB manga set at a dirt cheap price, but the shipping was outrageous, but you really can't blame the seller 'cause it's over seas ect.

On a completely random note, I started reading Chobits (currently on vol 3) It's pretty neat. Hideki makes me wanna laugh my ass off at points.

So that's why some of the manga is wrapped in plastic?
Sorry....I can be....er...slow at times. I was wondering that when I was at the book store.
