Ok I'll check that one out too



Yea exactly, I remember the Naruto, Bleach, One Piece, Fairy Tail and Toriko chapters always came out first there, so I'd read them there, and then a few hours later I'd read them on another website (forgot name) that was always late, but had by far the best quality. xD
Mangastream, probably. They were one of the first with HQ scans. Terrible people that ran it, tho.

That was the shit. Coming home from school, reading the chapters in the afternoon.

Bliss :pepecute::pepecute:
Yea for me coming home from school was manga time, while before school was anime time (had DBZ, Inuyasha, Naruto, Detective Conan, Yugioh, Pokemon, etc.. on TV). Though only on RTL 2 for me, which is how I became fluent in German lol.

Most of my evenings was me making Yugioh decks or building beyblades and playing with everyone else. Or playing Pokemon on gameboy. xD




The day I most remember about my childhood was one christmas morning, because a RIDICULOUS amount of snow fell overnight (it was like a cartoon christmas where it really was all white)... and I woke up, my mom had hot choco and other sweets ready for me, and under the christmas tree was a new Pokemon Game (gold)... and then I just called my friends over and we played Pokemon all day long. xD

Yes, mangastream that's it.

I figured one of the narutowire people would know the name, since we all read it on the same websites. xD

I see that website is still up actually, though back then they only really uploaded the big 5 mangas.

DBZ, Yuyu, Zenki, Voltez V, Voltron, and lots of Ghibli and European-inspired Japanese anime in the morning. Then spider derby in the afternoon while stealing fruits from a nearby farm.

Before school, I played Sega Megadrive 2. Nobody had ever beaten me in MK3 and DBZ.

Childhood. Feels like it was only yesterday.

Why not have both versions but different clans? Like many RP games have. Normal elfs and dark elfs. We got tieflings and Lunarians? The former has our own lore and the latter follows the manga version.
I was the very first elf in the RP iirc

Is it? They up and vanished one day a few years ago. Rumour was that they got hit with a cease and desist. There was no good bye post, no twitter post(they had Twitter to inform their followers). But from one day to the next, they nuked their site.

The best martial arts manga I've read was Gamaran.
That's swordsmanship tho. This one is pure hand to hand. Only one guy in the whole show uses Kendo. All the others have Karate, Judo, wrestling. etc

Ah that's what you meant by martial arts.

Because the original definition includes all sorts of weapons too. Though Gamaran also had some hand-to-hand combat, and even other weapons like bows, etc..

For me it was DBZ, Gundam Wing, Shinzo, Digimon, Super Sentai shows. They never aired Yu yu hakusho, Inuyasha nor Kenshin here. I watched all of those, safe for Inuyasha, when I was a lot older.

The art does require some getting used to but. I don't think I've read a better martial arts manga since then.
Man if someone is able to read KHR first chapters or Eyeshield 21 heck even 90´s manga are to read at first, the worst art I saw is certainly : Bad Boys

Can't recall Eyeshield 21 being that bad at the beginning? KHR I only started reading after the anime got canned, so can't really speak for that one.

Gundam is also aired here as well as Samurai X. For Inu and Naruto, I only got to see them during my early 20s. lol
They stopped airing a lot of anime here after DBZ. Wasn't a huge market here in the early 00s. Hell, they stopped airing DBZ after the cell games. For the longest time, I actually thought Gohan taking over was the actual ending of the show. My reaction when I discovered there was a whole 100 episodes or so left, lol.

I funnily enough got into the big 3 anime through a lot of AMVs that were all over the place on youtube.

Gundam never aired in my country so I haven't seen it yet. Kinda odd xD

My country only had Pokemon, Digimon, Yugioh, Beyblade (so now that I look at it, only anime that also had a physical product to it, like a trading card game, etc). That's it, in our language.

The rest was on German channels, those had Naruto, Inuyasha, Detective Conan.

Never had any Gundam, Bleach/One Piece, etc..

Peru, for example (since my wife is from there), mostly only had DB, Sailormoon and Saber Marionette lol. And Cardcaptor Sakura. lmao

KHR was a super cool concept and I really liked the anime (never read the manga). Wish it hadn't gotten scrapped.

Same with Toriko n.n
Some of the stuff that came after the anime was pretty cool. But I still despise the ending. It's one of the worst manga endings I've read in my entire life, lol.
