Is it worth it to buy the tolyopop releases. Mind you where I am there are very few stores where I can find manga and only the really popular ones so I have to buy from the internet - which can be costly. So anyone who read the series can tell me if it's worth it in comparison the prequel.

Yet I didn't finish the prequel so I can only compare with the parts I read. In my opinion, setting this in Japan makes it better. The art is better too compared with the prequel.

If u liked the detective, so far they have included references to him, but he's not a main character... but they hint he'll pop in later, in my opinion. The stories are just as interesting, but I don't think its any more mysterious than the first one. The first one gets pretty mysterious farther in. ________________
