Let's see. I like Inuyasha, Cowboy Bebop, S-CRY-ED, Paranoia Agent, Fooly Cooly, and many others. Can't recall them all right now.

Mars is awesome! And DN Angel! Love Hina, although it has wonderful art, gets tiring after a while...
As for boy-manga... (although DN Angel is considered boy-manga, I beg to differ!) Naruto!
Webcomics... megatokyo! Two kinds is cool too... but Boo is soo cute! ^__^ Oh and George and I-forgot-his-name and two-bit theater...
Chobits is nice too, but after reading the first one I stopped because it has a lot of... adult content? I'll wait until I'm sixteen, haha.
Where do you get manga besides buying them at the bookstore? They really eat up my birthday and new years and christmas money. 0.o

Manga is cool. I like the Dragon Knights and FMA.

I don't particularly care for Full Metal Alchemist. I must have came inot watching it too late for it to make any sense to me.

Not much into manga, but anime that is tight on story, like Miyazaki's work, is great. Although I'm not into series anime, I do like Inuyasha, and DBZ is an old favorite. As long as it's subtitled, not dubbed. Dubbing takes alot away from the script writing.

Yeah, I hate dub. The worst dub ever was definately Cardcaptors the Movie. They even changed the title from Cardcaptor Sakura... I wtach everything I can subtitled. |

You like Mars? I think that was the first Manga I read all the way through. It was really great. It even interested one of my anti-manga/comics/etc. friends. The art is lovely.
Although, to tell you the truth, I'm not much of a manga/anime person. I like a select few (Hellsing, Mars, Cowboy Bebop, and Samurai Champloo). Besides the aforementioned, most of what I've seen isn't anything to write home about. . . IMO (But then again, I haven't seen them ALL.)

Ive been a fanatic of said drawing form for almost five years now. I even draw my own manga, lol. There's not a day that goes by that I do not either watch anime, or read manga. Its crazy...lol
Some favorites include:
Naruto
Fullmetal Alchemist
FLCL
Trigun
Samurai X
Fushigi Yuugi(sp?)
Bleach
Paranoia Agent
Ghost in the Shell
Saiyuki
Mobile Suit Gundam
BoBoBo
Gravitation
One Piece
Just to name a few...lol
The Japanese Manga artform has become my mainstream style of drawing. Seriously, its difficult for me to go back to drawing the way I used to many years ago. My drawing style basically consists of inspirations from Masashi Kishimoto (Naruto), Tite Kubo (Bleach), and Akira Toriyama (Dragonball). It really is an interesting blend, lol.
I agree, Japanese with English subtitles is the way to go when watching anime. Although, I must admit, Trigun's dubbing was not atrocious. I actually felt that Vash's English voice actor did an excellent job, and suited him well.
You know, Naruto is coming to Toonami soon. Not sure when, but within this year, I know that. Cant wait to see all the little kids running around in the mall screaming all the technique names.......[/sarcasm] lol

Mars was great! I loved that series. I was really hooked into it. Most people don't seem to like storied like that though because of the "angst". Too bad. My first manga though was Kodocha. I love the comedy. Its great. Its one of the only mangas that actually made me laugh out loud while reading it. |

I used to like Cardcaptors. I was obsessed with it, but grew out of it.
