Ghost Hunt's anime was great. J.C. staff did yet another wonderful job. hahaa! I was watchin' the bloody labyrinth in the middle of the night, totally freak me out. Totally regretted watching it in the wee hours in a totally dark room in headphones. LOL!

I kinda checked out the manga, it doesn't have much difference from the anime. The information given and all. However, the manga and anime doesn't really answer much questions of what is mai's ability, or her background. We are also left with lots of question marks regarding shibuya himself. However, I couldn't get anymore information about them online. Hopefully if there's some novel translation available, it will be great. Or maybe someone gve us some spoilers. HAHAA! >_<

Gore... GANTZ anime will give a glimpse, but it's manga will throw you off balance. A more recent anime that is maybe more to the gore side maybe Tokyo Majin Gakuen Kenpuchou. It's fight scences and all are not bad.

The only few gore titles that I have read/seen are: GANTZ (manga > anime), Elfen Lied (Anime, trying to #lurk the manga), GOTH (novel >>>(huge wall)>>> manga) and Higurashi (Manga > Anime, haven't played the game though). DLed a couple of Ghost Hunt eps but too lazy to watch them atm :P

I bought mine as hard copies (RM 5 per book, that's less than USD$1.50) :P

Lurk should have it, though

Depends if you can get interested translator(s) or not... (And decent RAWs would be preferred)

I'll probably be busy with GOTH, so I'll pass on this... Here's another story that's pushed aside for a bunch of wrist-slitters :P

There are 11 translators, 6 editors, and 6 projects. I think that way too much already . . . . Just my opinion. Of course I voted yes, so it's kind of hypocritical.

P.S. I wanna say I'm probably the youngest person on this thread at age 13!!

I've seen groups with far more staff then us, yet still take twice as long.

trust me, just with these 11 translators, its a miracle we progress even 5% each week on all our projects.

:roll:

Sure, you probably might point out other group that will go against my claim, but then I don't chain them to the computer and threaten them with deadlines and ex-communicate from the whole japanese translation scene.... :twisted:

wait. then again, those powers do sound attractive..... must....resist.....powwwrrr!!

*over thrown by the people*

I'm pretty sure we have more than 11 translators, it's just that we're too lazy to update the staff page :D

6 projects isn't that much, especially when you consider the fact that not all translators work on every project. IMO we could still use a couple of translators/editors, and perhaps a few more pretty projects to chew on...

P/S: I won't be translating anything until I finish GOTH :)

Damn I can't believe it took me so long to watch this! After watching File 1 (The Haunted School arc), I'm seriously starting to crave for more. Even though it's almost 3 am here and the next arc is 3 episodes long.... Argh!

Honestly, if I get GOTH done, and college life doesn't trouble me too much, I'm going to translate this. Mai's no Yoru, but she's kinda attractive in her own way :P
