I am a big fan of Avatar. I have only seen Aang's story though. I am waiting for Korra's story to finish before I watch it.
Downz, I will definitely look into those manga. I have been really busy so I might only start reading one or two. "Berserk" is one of my favorite. I have been reading for about ten years now. I am surprised you didn't mention "Vagabond". I really liked "Tenjou Tenge" but it ended really weird. It's like the author "Ogreat" didn't know where to go with it, couldn't come up with a good ending and just threw something together.
"Death Do Us Part" Is a bout a bad ass blind swordsman, I think it is right up your alley. And "Ubell Blatt" is my favorite manga I am reading right now, a super bad ass who is out for revenge, he is one of the greatest betrayers and he is killing all the heroes. "Breaker New Waves" is a sequel to "Breaker". It's about another super bad ass doing whatever he wants and beating the shit out of anyone that pisses him off. Lots awesome going on. I don't just read cutesy shit, lol.
And yes "To Love Ru" was awesome, there is a sequel "To Love Ru, Darkness". Check some of those out, they sound like some you might be interested in. Thanks for the recommendations.

I am a manga fan. I read once a month. I read the main streams like Bleach, Naruto, Fairy Tail, History's Strongest Disciple Kenichi, Berserk and Beezlebub. I also read Pastel, Mysterious girlfriend X, Until death do us part, Youko x Boku SS, Breaker New waves, Ubel Blatt, and a few others I can't think of right now.
Bleach is ending in one more volume, so it is going to get really good. I can't wait to see it get adapted into an anime. And there isn't a whole lot left with Naruto so I don't see that lasting more than another year at most. I have read a lot of manga and manwha(Korean manga).
however, the releases are longer chapters, usually about 50 pages compared to a weekly release of about 15-20. I think the manga is up to about chapter 50, give it a read, its def worth it. The anime was good, but i always look at anime as more of an alternative adaptation to the original work, b/c a lot of times the anime will go with different endings, such as Claymore and Soul-eater, which left me WTF'ing all over the place
Im a big fan of action/fighting mangas, especially if cars or motorcycles are involved, i cant get into the cutesy shit (although to-love-ru was...entertaining, with all the tits lol). Some that I highly suggest are (and yes im going to indulge here a bit lol)
Shamo (modern day kung fu, bad ass)
Shigurui (old samurai stuff, very violent)
I am a Hero (very very bad ass, about zombies with a waffleswaffleswaffleswaffleswaffles MC who becomes a bad ass, highly suggest)
Ciguatera (more of a slice of life, but has motorcycles, kid rides around on an Aprillia RS250)
Black Lagoon (Modern day Pirates more or less, bad ass)
Berserk (loved this one, been going for 20 years, medieval monster demon shit, very cool and detailed work, however its been on hiatus for forever)
Soul-eater (manga just ended, bad ass)
Claymore (about monsters and women warriors, the artist really knows how to draw monster too, very good read)
Gantz (alien monster fighting, very gory and action packed, just ended as well, although it was dragged on for fucking forever, so the ending is very meh)
read those if you like bad ass violent stories 8-)
edit: sorry for the huge pics, and what the hell the waffles thing is still active?

Originally posted by Downz View Postnah the mangas got a good lead on it, read it, its even better then the anime, although as ive stated i am biased towards manga, it is worth a read however.
it wont be dragged on like a lot of other anime/manga series too, author says the manga will end in 30ish more chapters, so we'll prob see 2 more seasons of attack on titan, should be very good

Originally posted by rzerob View PostIt will probably be a one or one and a half years until season two of "Attack on Titan". It looks like they caught up to the manga. And they have to wait until there is enough story to continue. I haven't read it yet so I can't confirm. And I hate when they add fill in stories. Then again it is possible we will never see a season two. Hell, I am still waiting on season three of "Spice and Wolf".

I liked it, it was funny and a lot like "Working". I looked at what is ending and starting soon. And I am really excited that there is another "Hajime no Ippo" season to look forward too. That is a great anime and it is about boxing.
