    Good, But Different

    I, like most who are looking to read this series, have seen the anime version first. Being a major fan of the anime, I had extremely high expectations for the manga.

    I found that the art was spot-on, and looked exactly like the original anime Which is great. However, the original 50 episodes are jam-packed into 5 story manga installations, so the story was not what I expected. Towards the end of this volume, it is apparent that the story was changed to fit into 5 books. This strange shortening of the series has been very akward for me and I am not found of it. This continues through the entire series and progressively deviates further and further from what originally happened. If you were a hard-core fan of the anime, you might be a little taken-back by the plot changes.

    If you have never seen the anime, then you will most likely not understand the manga very well, as it doesn't have as much detail. I would recommend that you buy the manga only if you have seen the entire anime and are a mega-fan. That being said, I love the original series and like the manga adaptation very much- it is just not what I was expecting.

    Liked it, but a bit disappointed

    I liked this volume, but it kind of disappointed me. I'm a huge fan of the anime, but reading this made me feel like I was reading something totally different. I do recommend it to fans of the anime. especially if you're looking for something new.

    I've seen this anime on Adult Swim it's awsome, and something that'll pull you right in. Somethings, are really sad as you will soon find out. I hope you like it as much as I do! :D
