Yeah, it is. The anime did not reach chapter 18 or even less, and the manga has 27 or so chapters (some extras). :D

OH okay. Thanks -Lapras-, I will try it out now.

I've never read the manga, but isn't it still going on? The anime seems shorter for some reason.

The anime only managed one chapter per episode, and like Hiche said, it's now in the high 20's in terms of chapters. Too bad it's been licensed and the scanlation groups and ceased to continue the project. Now you have to wait a few years for the licensed manga to reach where it is now before you can read new stuff.

That sucks. D: Do you think there will be a second season?
 
I do think there will be a second season, seeing as the ending wasn't much of a finale.

I just watched the first episode of Best Wishes. What I liked are the voices of James and Jessy, though Meowth's was weird, in my opinion. All others were okay. And Ash ages backwards, WTF? He's tiny! I liked Shootie or whatever his name is; he isn't exactly like Paul, rather a mix between Gary and Paul.
 
Without knowing any official facts i would be pretty certain that there will be another season of HOTD. No loose ends were tied up and they were basically setting out on a new adventure (the metaphor was the long road riddled with danger ahead). I hope the new season comes not too long after the OVA.

People from MAL are actually liking Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt, it wasn't bad, very weird :O Anybody liked this one?

This was so entertaining in the oddest way possible. Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if it turns out to be the best comedy of the season. So incredibly stupid, yet such a guilty pleasure.

The High School of the Dead manga is way better than the anime.

EVERYONE SAYS THIS. I mean, I haven't read the manga myself, but from the few episodes I've seen, saying the manga is better isn't saying very much. God awful fan service in my zombie slaying anime? Do not want.
 
I was going to read it but as soon as I wanted to, it got licensed. I should have read it back in '08 :/
 
I started reading today, if you want it Char★ all 27 chapters are on mangareader. As for fan service ruining it, i don't think it did. A few occasions i was left thinking "that was not really needed" or "wow the producer must really like panty shots" but it didn't take away from the story or anything. Also it calmed down a lot after episode 6/7 if i remember correctly.

I think people might me thinking the manga is better because there are more chapters. From what i can see the anime stuck stuck petty much to every word of the chapters they used so there's no other reasons really.
 
Not really. Yes, there are more chapters, but I did not like it because of that. I just..prefer(ed) the manga, that's all. That's just me, by the way. The anime wasn't bad, at all, though. And the manga, after 14 chapters, toned down the fanservice and more action, which I think the anime will do if a second season is announced.

I think Psychic Detective Yakumo is being subbed and will be released tonight or the first thing tomorrow morning. FINALLY!

Ah, thanks! I'll read it later on, I have 2 reports to write now -_-
 
I am watching Kanon (2006) and it's going good so far. Did anybody see it, and is it better than the old Kanon?
 
You're comparing dated 2002 Toei animation's 13 episode work to 2006 KyoAni's 24 episode work. It should go without saying that the 2006 version is undoubtedly better.
 
+1

I personally loved Kanon 2006. Awesome characters, art, story and delivery of the story. It shares a lot of themes with Clannad which is also a good thing in my book. You'll enjoy i for sure ^^,
 
I started watching Kanon 2006, but then my DVD money ran out. Since it's licensed in the US, is there any legal site that's streaming it?

Those sites are illegal technically. :x

I see the first 4 episodes on FUNimation's site and Hulu, but that's it.

Damn, those are the four episodes I HAVE seen...

Anyway, I've just watched the first five episodes of Minami-Ke Okaeri (the second season). It's not as funny as the first and it even looks like another studio produced it, but what the hey, I'll stick with it for now :P

I actually finished watching Kanon 2006 today. I haven't watched the original, but I definitely will at some point, just to compare.
I thoroughly enjoyed Kanon. Very emotional, I didn't enjoy the Mai arc, I like my anime's to be somewhat realistic and believable to an extent. But the Makoto and Ayu arc's were beautiful, I was on the verge of tears.
