Wild Adapter Volume 1 (Wild Adapter)
Kazuya Minekura
TokyoPop, 2007
A Gritty Manga Drama
A lot of Manga titles stick to tried and true genres such as martial arts, fantasy, or Sci-Fi, which makes Tokyopop's Wild Adapter, that much more refreshing. This is a gritty, urban drama, taking place within the inner circles of the Yakuza, the Japanese version of ...

Wild Adapter Volume 2 (Wild Adapter)
Minekura Kazuya
TokyoPop, 2007
Tough Shojo for girls tired of soft fluffy drama.
The english release for Wild Adapter 1 is, for some reason, not listed on Amazon. Anyway, this story uses the 2 main characters of an old 2-shot series called "Shiritsu Araiso Koutou Gakkou Seitokai Shikkoubu" & plays on lots of gay jokes (even more than Saiyuki does). ...

Saiyuki Reload Volume 8 (Saiyuki Reload)
TokyoPop, 2008
Saiyuki Forever!
My love of all things Saiyuki began with the anime. Then I started reading the manga, which I give to my nephew for his collection.
We both enjoy the drama and the comedy.
We both agree that I'm a Hakkai and he's a Goku.
We both wish this series of manga would ...

Saiyuki Reload Volume 4 (Saiyuki Reload)
Kazuya Minekura
TokyoPop, 2006
The continuing Journey
I don't need to tell Saiyuki fans the whole of this story. And since I'm collecting all of them, it's a bit pointless. The anime doesn't do justice to the stories contained in the manga. Fans of the anime need ot read the Manga. That's all there is to it. Basically, ...

TokyoPop, 2006
Finally!
This is the volume of Saiyuki Reload where things finally get back on track. In the last two books it was mainly the guys playing around or getting sidetracked- something even they comment on in the book. It might not be super accurate to say things got going again in ...

I love it
What is there not to like to the Tokyopop's translation of Saiyuki Reload? Loaded with creative funny one liners that never repeats (unlike the Japanese version)and reminds me a lot of the English dub of the ADV Gensomaden Saiyuki.
The only con is, sometimes Tokyopop ...

Dark and Modern
For people familiar with Kazuya Minekura's most famous series, Saiyuki, what a surprise- in Bus Gamer (It really should be "Biz Gamer," as "Business") fantasy-ancient-legends-of-demons are no where in sight. This fairly dark story is set in modern Tokyo and has three ...
