I can't even find Volume 2 of FullMetal Alchemist. There were at least 4 copies of volume 20 near me. _________________ 私はクロノスの雪代縁13番です |

It depends on which version of FMA you're buying; the Viz edition, or the (cooler) jacket-sleeve Chuan Yi (forgive my potentially incorrect naming, my manga is nowhere ne me) editions.
Either way, I've mostly seen the Viz edition around, who have volume 20, but I'm collecting the Chuan Yi edition that Madman releases and it often takes a while for the new volume to show up in stores. _________________ The Doctor: A straight line may be the shortest distance between two points, but it is by no means the most interesting.

I've been reading the Chuan Yi edition. It was Vice-Versa for me their was more of the Chuan Yi then the Viz Media which was surprising. _________________ 私はクロノスの雪代縁13番です |

I just got my Astro boy manga bundle order delivered to me today. When I opened the package, I found the books covers backwards and I started to freak out a bit... Then after a bit of research I found out that manga is read from the right to the left... It's no big deal, but it was a bit of a surprise and I'll need a little bit of time to get used to reading that way, since I've always been used to reading novels left to right, front to back.  |

Got today:
Ouran Highschool Host Club 13
There's no point in going from the Viz release to MM's version since the translation and honourifics are completely different.
Got sunday :
Otomen 4

when he left the operating theatre one day.
And I saw the smiley face on the chainsaw,
covered in a redish spray.
His face though scarred was smiling,
when he saw me in the hall.
He laughed and danced and sang in joy,
as the blood was flung across the wall. |

Thanks Travku. I was actually willing to see this piece after Inoue-san wrote about it in his blog.
