Where ever I go I don't see manga crazed people. I know I few people who like manga/anime but not many. We have several anime/manga shops but not many where I live.

I know what you mean... In the bookstore, in front of all those shelves and shelves of decently-translated manga, there's always some young wipper-snapper browsing with a friend.... And then there's the kids buying that "Shonen Jump" thing....

Why, I remember when I had to walk FIFTEEN MILES through the snow, BAREFOOT, to get my manga! And we liked it in JAPANESE, not any of this pansy English.

*thumps cane*

*grumples* wipper-snappers... *grumble* don't know how good they got it... Hmmmph!

:lol: I actually kinda miss being the only one camped out at the manga section of the bookstore. But hey, at least with a wider scope of readers the "porn addicted devil worshipper" mindset that some other people tend to have is dispersing. ^^;

Wish I could sympathize. I know one person who likes manga. One. And she doesn't even buy it. She just reads what I have.

Yeah. It stinks.
Every year in Uganda, innumerable children simply. . . disappear. These children all stolen under the cover of darkness from their homes and impressed into the guerilla armies of the LRA [Lord's Resistance Army]. In the deserts of Uganda, they are forced to witness the mindless slaughter of other children until they themselves can do nothing but kill. Kill. These children, generally ranging from ages 5-12, are brainwashed into murdering in the name of the resistance and into stealing other children from their beds to suffer the same fate.

Because of this genocide of innocence, hundred and hundreds of children live every night sleeping in public places miles from their homes, because they know that if the do not-- they will disappear. They will become just another number in this genocide to which the international community has chosen to turn a blind eye. They will become, in affect, invisible-- Invisible Children.

But there are those who are trying to fight against this slaughter of Uganda's children. They fight to protect these "invisible children." Please, help them help a country full of children who know nothing by fear. Help save the innocence. For more information concerning how you can help and how you can get an incredible video about this horrific reality, visit the Invisible Children home page.

For quoting such a statement, your shoes will be glued to the ceiling (with you in them of course) for an indefinite period of time or until you realize that the South rocks. Which ever comes first. ;)

Eh??? Don't be dissin' the south! C'mon, Osaka! Let's charge him with our pitchforks! :lol:

I see kids carrying graphic novels at school all the time. On Halloween a lot of people dressed up as anime characters (I noted a group of Konoha genins :wink: ) And I've even seen people wearing anime t-shirts that looked like they were imported directly from Japan o.O

The only bookstore we have in our town though is in our tiny, pathetic nursing-home Hallmark-stores excuse for a mall, so I have to travel 45 minutes to get to the nearest Books-A-Million or Barnes & Noble. But there are always other people browsing the manga sections, although most of them are younger kids who just discovered that the Yu-Gi-Oh manga exists.

Or throw biscuits and gravy and sweet tea at him.

Kidding, kidding. Ok, um, so, are there any particular series that people in your area tend to like? (trying to get back on topic) It's pretty varied where I live. I think most people like Cowboy Bebop and the others that are always on Adult Swim. From what I've seen shoujo manga seems the most popular at my school.

my home town has about one other person than me who really knows and understands what manga is, and she is addicted to Shonen Jump and special orders in manga from Japan (due to the lack of a bookstore within two hours of driving to the town). lol. since i now live in a town for college that has three huge bookstores with manga/graphic novels and a campus bookstore with a pathetically small selection, she is bugging me to bring/send some back for her. up here in cowboy land, i'm usually the only one in the manga section, and if there is someone else it's a paranoid looking teenage guy, lol. sadly, my campus bookstore has not gotten over the "porn addicted devil worshipper" mindset and hides the manga in the new age section :shady: . and i NEVER see anyone else looking at the manga on campus. there are quite a few anime crazed girls in my dorm hall, but i have no idea about their manga crazed status.

*runs away in fear of the sweet tea wielding southerners*
kidding aside, i really do fear sweet tea... :grin:

Mangafanatic was right. it is usually YuGiOh and other Shonen Jump related products. I have never before seen Pokemon graphic novels before though. Were do you get them? by the way,were do you guys live?! SOUTH? you mean likein florida and stuff?

Osaka lives no where in Massachusettes. She lives in the other South. The one that's less Northern. J/k.

You can get the Pokemon graphic novels most places in my area. But then there's alot of Digimon floating around too. Which I can more comfortably support (a.k.a I liked Digimon.)

And don't worry. I'm sure neither Kireihana or I were offended. The comment was made in jest, but I just couldn't let it pass. *blush* Sorry. Somethimes I let myself get carried away.

I'm stuck in the middle in Virginia.

Richmond was a capital of the Confederacy during the civil war, so technically it's the south. However, the people in the "true" south say that Virginia isn't the south, and the north doesn't want us either...

But, considering people from VA DRIVE like southerners, I'd say it's probably safe to say VA is in the south. Considering that if there's a half-inch of snow on the ground, the grocery stores are out of bread, milk, and water, I'd say VA is in the south...

I'm torn. My dad was from Michigan, my mom is from North Carolina...I was born at Durham Regional Hospital...lived in West Virginia until I was 2.

And I LIKE biscuits and gravy. But I don't like any type of tea, sweet or otherwise.

*Remembers the episode of MST3K where Servo becomes southern*

Servo: "I turned into a southerner?! I must have been INSUFFERABLE!"

I really don't have anything against the south, to be honest. Just those ignorant redneck hicks with the confederate flags and the "The South will rise again!" nonsense. Not everyone from the south is a redneck. I should know. Dragonshimmer's from GA and she's like one of the kewlest people I've ever met.

*Sighs* It's all my fault this thread is wildly off topic...I'm going to go punish myself by forcing myself to watch MST3K episodes WITHOUT commentary. *Shudders*

That's what you get for not liking sweet tea. ;)

So, what mangas are popular in Virginia?

That's a difficult question to answer.

When I was in Norfolk (which was quite a while ago) I believe that the most popular manga at the time were Love Hina, Negima, Rave Master, and Chobits. That's just what I can remember, anyway.

Danville (which is closer to me now) has a very limited selection of manga, making me glad I ordered my CCS boxsets elsewhere! It's mostly the mainstream stuff...Yugioh (which, honestly, isn't too bad as a manga...Anzu in a bikini...*drools*), and Dragonball. They DID have Mahoromatic, though, so I gotta give 'em some bonus points for that.

Just so long as they have Fruits Basket volume 6 on December 12...wait a second...DECEMBER 12?! WOO-HOO! TEN MORE DAYS UNTIL MORE FURUBA!

As it says under my avatar, I live in Tennessee. Actually my town is on the border of Tennessee and Virginia (We have 2 of everything - 2 police departments, 2 fire stations, 2 Wal-Marts....) but I live on the Tennessee side.

I can't speak for the whole of Virginia but in my area it's like I said; Shonen Jump and Adult Swim titles are probably the most popular.

The most manga I've ever seen was when we went to this little mall in Salem Massachusetts, and there was this store with everything anime/manga related you could ever imagine. The walls were lined with manga and magazines; even ones imported straight from Japan. There was tons of anime, posters, and soundtracks too. It was pretty cool.

*note to self: Keep sugar away from oro!girl7.*

There are two manga otakus that I know personally that aren't related. One likes shougo, and the other likes a mix. Rachel likes a mix of shonen and shougo, my other little sister is almost strictly shougo. My brother is at the other extreme, having not read CCS, despite our many assurances of its quality.

I've seen people reading Inu Yasha, SDK, and Love Hina,. The stores carry a mix, with Hastings being a bit more shougo oriented. BAM is pretty well split, as is FYE.

They (FYE) FINALLY separated the hentai from the other anime!

Just for the record, I now avoid Pokemon and Digimon equally.

We don't have that many places that sell manga around here, let alone vast crowds camping outside to get it. I know several people who enjoy anime, but manga just isn't really popular around here.

Living in the Bay Area in California, I've never known a shortage of manga: Borders, Barnes and Noble, Waldenbooks. If I want Japanese language, I can head over to Kinokuniya in San Francisco. Can always do Amazon for the rare title NOT carried. Pretty much everything available except hentai here-- and I guess you could special order THAT, not that I want to.

It's nice except after school when you trip over all the kids hanging out after school planted in the aisles reading.

For anime and manga, I pretty much have instant access to all of it here...

...I'm going to get lynched for boasting, right?

Not many manga crazed ppl where I live. Know some of ppl that like manga, and some more that like anime. For the most I think it's Pokemon, Digimon, Yu-Gi-Oh and Naruto. Only know two ppl that reads Dragonball. Lives like an hour away from the nearest manga store :p. Kinda sad that so few are interested in it :(

magna craze... um.. naw... however if i find a good cool 1 im all over it, and i can speak some japanese... enough to ask people online for help and such... mostly game talk. doubt that helps much, and about that biscuits and gravy... can u throw some at me while i grab a plate and a fork? and I was born and raised in the ghetto. well its ghetto now, used to be mildly ghetto, so only anime i knew of was db, dbz, and teknoman... and on a side note, tea is nasty... coffee is pretty good. Juice... alot of em are good, get away from me with grape or grapefruit.... bring on the soda! long live caffine, how i survived my schoolin and got my edumacation.

There are a lot of manga fans where I live, if the people in Borders (and the plentiful manga shelves), are any clue.

For some reason I'm really into tea lately. Green decaf, and camomile. :)
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share

And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence.
