Yukito Kishiro's Gunnm (Battle Angel Alita) nº2 of the 5th (and last) part. (The girl from my icon)
Some years later I bought the complete collection.
I saw the anime and I liked it a lot (its really unusual to find such a well created heroine). Its seinen, cyberpunk style and ultra violent, but some way it managed to make my cry everytime she killed an enemy (and believe me, they were real psychopaths).
Unfortunately, they changed the original ending and created a new serie (Gunnm LAst Order) that is quite bad...

I'm with Mela on this one.  Was at Barnes and Noble, decided to check out this newfangled (to me) 'manga'.  Saw the word chronicle, (i like epic stories, which is what chronicle makes me think of) and found vol. 1

Read the whole damn thing in one sitting.  Could not put it down!!!   Can you blame me??   :lol:  Bought it and then proceeded to read the rest online (though I did eventually buy 2-10 when I had $$$).

...and the rest is history!

My first manga was DNAngel when my friend told me that english mangas (tokyopop) was available in easons (the equivalent of barnes and noble here in Ireland)
Fate is a funny thing, it can always surprise you somehow. Just when you thought everything in your world is fantastic and wonderful. It would turn your world into a nightmare the next morning you woke up. Just when you thought you world was ending, turning upside down. Fate will put someone special into your life and guide you through the darkness when you were lost. Cheer you up when you are in despair. - from the fafiction "A Crazy thing called Love." by Aisaki Sumi

There is not such thing as coincidences just hitsuzen - Clow Reed from Card Captor Sakura and Yuuko from XXXHolic/Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle

Let's see... I've read so many but I think the first one I read is Oh! My Goddess... by brother bought some so I started reading... then I was hooked and looked for other manga that suited my tastes more.. :D

Although I had some manga but I really couldn't understand it.. we had a sailormoon manga before but it was japanese so I couldn't read it.. I just looked at the pictures. :D

Lucky you gchan. You didnt have to put up with the crap names that tokyopop used. I hope they get a new lisence and make the manga 100% authentic. Atleast they never hid the nudity.

They would have to go to the creator to obtain the rights to release the manga AND anime series in the United States. From what I hear, they're playing a bit of hardball when it comes to licensing it in the States.
