    ...Since Viz Comics have the honour to translate Rurouni Kenshin, while Dark Horse is translating the Trigun & Hellsing Series. I was wondering what the most of you want to be translated next?

    I want to see the Azumanga daioh series to be translated, and from what I have heard, either Toykopop or Viz are going to translate it.

    So, which title do you want to be translated?

    As for others, well...
    Bleach
    Bremen
    Air Gear
    Full Metal Alchemist
    Hikaru no Go (already licensed too!)
    Futari Ecchi (which probably will never be licensed)
    Break Shot
    Prince of Tennis
    W-Juliet
    Yamada Taro
    Over Rev
    Great Sword of Wah
    Salad Days


    And probably more, but I can't remember them. ^_^

    It does, actually! I haven't actually seen any pages off of one...but I did manage to find a site that is selling the japanese print of it.

    here is the link to the page that's selling it.

    Anyway, from some quick review scanning, it seems as if RahManga is quite a bit different from teh anime. It follows the same basis, but there's enough difference to set it apart from the anime. Somehow, I'm thinking along the lines of the Evangelion manga's differences when compared to its own anime series. Going along with that fact, I'm pretty sure that the anime (like Eva's) will be better than the manga. Sure, there'll be some parts in the manga that are better, but I'm more of a stickler for the original series.

    I would love more than anything for the Dewprism manga to be translated. I don't even know if it's a Dark Horse manga, but if anyone knows anything about it tell me!

    Jungle Wa Itsumo Hare Nochi Guu.

    Though I can't imagine it being anywhere near as good.
    Fruits Basket is out or licensed right? well, then other than that...uh...can't think of any.

    At the moment all the titles I'm interested in, that includes Rurouni Kenshin, Blade of The Immortal and some others, are already being translated or they have been licensed.

    Only thing I'd like to see is unmirrored, but translated, versions of already translated mangas that have been mirrored, like Tenchi Muyo and Slayers Special for example.
