End of Ga-Rei

Twi writes: SEGAWA Hajime's Ga-rei will end in Shonen Ace (published by [sitelink=publishers.html?id=94]Kadokawa Shoten[/sitelink]) #3 (on sale the 26th of January). The series will span 12 volumes in total. However, he won't keep idle for long since he'll be starting a new series in Shonen Ace #4 (on sale the 26th of February), called TokyoESP.

Authors Associated Names

I finally convinced Manick to do some work, so now authors can also have associated names (just as series do). Hopefully there won't be 2 entries for the same author anymore. Just add alternate spellings and stuff like that under this new associated name field

Note: Searching by an associated name currently does not work. We're working on it

New Poll - December Holidays

This poll was suggested by our member lessaandflar. Pretty simple. Which major December holiday do you celebrate? (Although it's January right now...)
The choice of "Does New Year's Eve count?" is only applicable if you do not celebrate anything else, as I count New Year's as a January holiday (and the Eve of it isn't really a holiday...)

I guess it's not manga unless most of it is black and white?

New Poll - Color Attitude

Another poll that was suggested by Di27...
So how would you like your manga done in terms of colors vs. black and white? Just to tell you, the first and last options are the rare ones that occur in real life. As with most things, the middle options that are most present.

Shugo Chara...not Ending?

A few weeks ago, we said that Shugo Chara! would be ending (with chapter 48), but it's not over yet! It'll be continued in Shugo Chara Encore! in February. As to why, we haven't got a clue yet...

Christmas gift to all of you that love that series

New Poll - Reading Direction

This poll was suggested by our member Di27. The whole point of this poll is to choose the option you'd prefer in the situation that YOU can choose that the original source reads left to right / right to left. As in would you prefer everything to be always done left to right, just like American comics? Or the reverse where everything is like manga?
The issue is if you could draw and create your own stories, would it read left to right or right to left?

(And I'm gonna bet over 90% of the people who vote in this poll will never understand the actual reason for this...and will instead vote for "right to left" because it's "pure")
