Ganzt


yo whats uppppp its ya mans naga once again givin u guys sumthing interesting to check out. so i love mangas if there done right and im a very picky person when it comes to things i read. so i thought id share what im currently reading. my friend told me recently to check out she thought i would like it so i picked it up and damn its pretty good. dont think im to far in to the series seeing how Ive only finished the first 3 books. all i can say is that GANTZ a violent, sexy, smart story, that's pretty graphic and addictive. from what i hear the series is still going on and is kinda far ahead of me. i also have heard the anime starts off the same and then goes down a different course than the manga




Plot Summary: Kei Kurono is a typical high school student in a selfish world, not caring about anyone other than himself. However when, by chance, he was forced to help out his childhood friend, Katou Masaru, rescue a drunkard who fell into subway tracks, both he and Katou were killed... Or not. After being run over by the train, they were suddenly teleported to an enclosed apartment with others who recently died. And now their lives are controlled by a mysterious black ball inside the apartment called GANTZ, and they are forced to participate in a "game" of unprecedented danger and horror.

Death Note


whats up internet? its ya soon to be favorite blogger kris and i heard a rumor on the net that there gonna turn my favorite manga into an American movie. The series DEATH NOTE has already been turned into an anime and had 3 Japanese movies but now Hollywood has got their hands on it. some ppl think thats not such a good things because most adaptions of foreign films turn out to be crap or just average at best and alot can be lost from the original. like the ring and dragonball and aeon flux and the grudge and so on and so on. But i watched the Japanese movie version of death note and i didnt like it at all compared to the manga and anime and since then ive been hoping Hollywood would try to redo it but make it good.

In case you guys havent seen the show on adult swim or havent read the manga the basic story is that a boy named Light finds a note book that kills people when their names are written in it. Light decides to use this power as what he precise to be good or right by killing only criminals. of course some people are cool with it but the police arent and they start trying to catch Light. with out giving to much away or making it any more complicated than it is this is the basic story, of course its much much much more than that thou. its a really deep series and its smart, not really filled with cheesy action or dialogue. even thou its in manga form it reads more like a novel. the show also follows the manga very strictly (unlike most do)so either one u check out u should enjoy the same. i suggest picking up the manga over the show thou cuz reading makes u look and feel smarter even thou it might not actually make u smarter.

Peace.
