Manga Post #8

Hello Bookies,

I'm still on the search for new manga to read and I'm still looking for suggestions. Currently, I'm only reading two series until I find a new one to replace the one I had just finished. You are very familiar with the ones that I've been reading, so I don't think I need a long intro for them. Remember that if you guys want me to read anything, just let me know in the comments section below.

I wasn't sure if this volume of Naruto was going to still be a refresher for me or not. Maybe this was the part in the anime series where I was kind of watching it but not. Either way, it's still pretty exciting. The big match has begun between Sasuke and Gaara. It's not as detailed as the anime, but that is only because they have to fill in thirty minutes. Anyways, The match began and then the attack on the village takes place. All still a refresher for me. I know Naruto and Gaara fight each other at some point that is pretty soon, but I don't know when or how it turned out. So I'm looking forward to that. Either way, things are getting pretty good in the series. I think you get more into it if you read it instead of watching it on TV. Probably because you are making the whole show in your head. At least all of the excitement it just now starting to begin. I can't wait to read the next volume.

So far I am enjoying this series. I can't say that I love it quite yet since I'm still pretty early in the series. Anyways, we are still witnessing our main character getting used to his new life. He is still learning the ropes in fighting and who are all ghouls. It's all still pretty interesting and we are slowly learning the world of ghouls the more we read. Our main character still won't eat human flesh to survive. He continues with his coffee and sugar cubes. I know eventually, he will have to give into that side of him if he wants to survive. Or, did he already and I wasn't really paying attention. Shame on me if I wasn't. Anyways, there is a new ghoul being introduced. This one is one that not everyone really likes. From what I gathered, he is a bit of a troublemaker. I do have to say that the guy kind of gave me the creeps when he first arrived in the volume. I have to give the author credit for that. It's not easy to make you hate a character right away. I think it takes quite a talent that I still have yet to accomplish. Either way, the creepy character ends up feeding our main character to their own kind. Then he finds out our main character is a half-ghoul and then decides that he wants to eat him all by himself. I knew I didn't like the guy for a reason. Sadly that is pretty much where the volume ended. Sad face. I have already requested the next volume and I may have started the anime series that goes along with this manga. So, I think by the end of this volume I may be slowly falling in love with the series. It's pretty good. And, you know something is good when you don't even know your boss has walked into the room because you are so into what you were reading. Scared the crap out of me. But I think I'm going to have to highly recommend this series to people who haven't read it yet. There are still plenty of volume for me to read. Also I hear that there is a live action version of this series airing in selected theaters. Do I hear a road trip coming up?

So until next time.....
