Due to the license of Kashimashi Girl Meets Girl by Seven Seas Entertainment during AnimeExpo (July 1 - July 4), Dynasty Scans will be dropping this project.
We, the people at Dynasty, are still getting questions about this at our forum. Yes, it is true. Nothing you do will change our minds.
I added a few more things. For one, if you look at a series that is rated, you can see a distribution of the ratings (i.e., how many people gave it 10 vs. 9 vs. 8 etc.).
Also, I have added something called a "sub letter", so when you are on the releases page or the series page or the authors page, you can click on one of the letters at the top of the page, and then a "sub-letter" set will appear, and you can pick up to three letters helping you find what you're looking for.
More to come.
I added a new feature and hopefully it will come in handy for specific anime/manga. I like to watch anime as well as read manga, so when i start a series and find that it actually continues in the manga after the anime ends (or goes off on a different path), I want to read on. A few examples of animes that do this are Berserk and Inuyasha.
Anyway, to help out with finding the chapter at which the manga continues, I have added a new feature called "Anime Start/End Chapter". See the series listing for Inuyasha for an example of the new feature.
Hopefully in the future it becomes easier looking for the right chapter to start reading at when you finish an anime.

Yup, this site started exactly two years ago today, on July 20th 2004. Since then we've grown quite a bit. For any of you who want to know what we looked like two years ago, you can check out this web archive snapshot. They just happened to take a snapshot the day we went live!

The first volume to the sequel of Peach Girl will be released in August from TokyoPop! (Renamed, Peach Girl : Sae's Story) However, it takes a turn as the whole story focuses on former nemesis Sae Kashiwagi. Though appearences by couple Momo and Kiley do show up from time to time (yay!), it follows Sae's misadventures as she ends up repeating her high school year and meeting up with an old childhood friend, which seems to prove disastrious!

Here's the result from the previous poll:

Choices:

350 - votes: 1438 (24.9%)
-26 - votes: 651 (11.3%)
15,000 - votes: 739 (12.8%)

It is impossible - votes: 1888 (32.7%)
There were 5771 total votes.
The poll ended: June 25th 2006
To tell you the truth, this was more of a joke poll than anything. For any of you that really care to find out, you can look here: [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tootsie_Pop[/url]. It seems the average is around 600-800.
On to other things though! We have a new poll up, and we'd like to get your input! Thank you for participating!
