Favorite manga titles, current manga reads, and manga your looking forward to.

For me, my fav. its The Seikei Trilogy.  I'm currently hooked on Dramacon.  Looking forward to the third installment for the Seikei Trilogy.

The only Manga I've ever read is the Priest series by Min-Woo Hyung.  It's an amazing series, and brings up some instersting mythologies, and constantly pulls you in.  The story line is very reminisant of a very cool video game from back in the day, Blood, and Hyung actually says that was his inspiration for the Priest character.  There's currently 14 books out and the series hasn't ended yet.  Unfourtunately there's been little to no information as to when the 15th book will be avalilbe and I'm just dying to get a hold of it.
The main reason I don't read manga, is that reading from back to front really throws me off when it's English.  I can handle it when it's in Japanese, since I'm trying to learn it any way, it's fun practice.  But when it's in English it's just uncomfortable to me.  I know some people think it "Saves the purity of the Manga form" but for me it's just a nusince.

Holy Crap there's going to be a sequal to Love Hina!  I loved that series.  Negima's good too, but the love interest there is just a little scary.  Ken Akamatsu is one perverted Japanese dude. 

I love manga and read a lot of it.  Favorite series ever, Battle Angel Alita and Last Order.  (if anyones a fan of cyber punk they need to check out that series)  Best emotional story i'd say is Lament of the Lamb.  (Interesting take on the vampire genre, plus the whole series is done. So no waiting for the next book to be published)  Love Hina's my favorite comedy.  Gotta love the fact that the romance in that story actually progresses somewhere.  Personal pet peeve of mine in the anime/manga world is that they never really bring the romances to a conclusion.

The sequel would probably take place between the second to last and the last chapters of the last manga.  Most likely it will deal with Kenturo and Naru's relationship while at Tokyo U.  However it could also posably take place after the entire series.  Ken Akamatsu has said that a lot of fan's weren't happy about the quick tie-off to the series.

Well it could be pretty cool,  but it could also be boring.  Half the fun of the original series was watching Keitaro and Naru's relationship develop.  But that's just my thoughts on it.

Currently reading Hands Off! (my favorite), Kindaichi Case Files, Kare Kano, Saikano, Video Girl Ai, Ranma 1/2 (I'm so behind ><), and Boys Over Flowers...sorta. That one kind of sucks, so I'm on and off.
