Then there is a major divergence, with manga characters that do not exist in the anime. My understanding is that the anime was begun before the manga was finished, so at some point the anime creators had to guess where the manga author was headed. I rather enjoy this, as it means that even though the anime series has finished its run, I can still look forward to each new volume wondering what's going to happen next. It's like an another alternate universe!smailehhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10874005187169078249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19660349.post-1152757007669184712006-07-12T19:16:00.000-07:002006-07-12T19:16:00.000-07:00Hey, I watched like half the episodes...and I don'...Hey, I watched like half the episodes...and I don't think they know what alchemy really is.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19660349.post-1152748419744250662006-07-12T16:53:00.000-07:002006-07-12T16:53:00.000-07:00Thank you for this post!!Full Metal Alchemist is o...Thank you for this post!!<BR/><BR/>Full Metal Alchemist is on TV, it's on cartoon network at like 2 a.m. (thank you TiVo!) I watched the whole series because a friend recommended it and I too was impressed with the storyline. From what you said in your review, it sounds like the graphic novel is the same as the TV show. There is also a movie that caps off the series, but it hasn't been translated to english yet.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I tried getting Sara to watch it, but she absolutely *hates* it. I don't know why because I don't think she ever watched an episode!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19660349.post-1152276523597443652006-07-07T05:48:00.000-07:002006-07-07T05:48:00.000-07:00I think it's pretty safe to say that you are not t...I think it's pretty safe to say that you are not the intended audience for "Love Hina" (neither, for that matter, is anyone without a Y chromosome). <BR/><BR/>I suggest you try "Rurouni Kenshin." Aside from recommending it because it's my personal favorite manga (and anime), it also has plenty of action, great (and evolving) characters, interesting storylines, dramedy, and a general lack of well-endowed bimbos with air for brains.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
