@Duelistbluerose: Well I haven't really been reading any manga for the past week or so. I'm kinda taking a break from Naru Taru and Bokurano for now since I'm currently trying to finish up a couple of novels. ^^

@sakura: how are you enjoying naru taru and bokurano?

First Banana Fish and now Mushishi, everyone makes them sound so good that I want to run out and buy the whole series, but alas, I'm far too poor for that. Antique Bakery is shorter, so maybe I'll attempt to track down its volumes (which looks to be a little difficult since it's OOP, but I didn't stop me before XD)

Actually, after doing some more thinking, I'll make an exception for Mushishi and add it to the Manga Relations. After all, there are already a few "classics" in the Manga Relations that have more than 2,000+ readers but they are ranked fairly high by many and won awards, etc.

sakura_r0se | 11-15-09, 10:54 AM

@Kino-: I'm making it a habit of cleaning out the Manga Relations and not listing every single manga that people think are "hidden". The list would just go on and on and I hate how you can't really organize it here on MAL.

Anyway, all series should have at least 2,000 members or LESS that have the series on their lists and Mushishi has 3,000+. Not saying it's not worth reading, we did just feature it awhile ago, but I'd rather make room for some other stuff and I'm always in the process of removing some series off the list. That's what the other lists that we have in the forum threads are for (since they're more organized). If it's not in the Manga Relations, we would usually move it there = )

Just added Children of the Sea though (Kaijuu no Kodomo) to the list. That at least qualifies. I'm not sure if any of Igarashi-sensei's other works are available in English (scanlated or licensed) but I'll only add those that are accessible in English.

@EVERYONE: If the Manga Relations is missing anything, all you gotta do is let me know. It's not like I purposely don't put up certain series on there (unless they have more than 2,000 readers). I'm very busy and rarely go on here anymore. I don't have the time to hunt down every single series that should be on there, simple as that. I don't bite xD
