I really like how they set the story in this series along with the interactions between the characters. It has only been four chapters, but Bakuman looks like a promising series so far.

A solid chapter.

We now see that there's a parallel between the past and the present. I wonder whether there's any corresponding character to Takagi in the previous generation.

Chapter 4's up already!?

*Scuttles off to read chapter 3*

Where have I been??

[Edit] Just read 3&4. I'm loving this already. I love Takagi. His reaction to Azuki's mum saying "Girls like bad boys"! Loved it.

In my option the way they forshadowed this event was really played out nicly. they let you believe this might be happening because you see the similitaries between the two.

The story has potential, but how far can it truly go? Each time i keep thinking about I can't see it standing more than 100chapters (which would be good in itself). The problem will be enough subplots to keep the story fresh and going. Only way I can totally see it going for awhile is if they start to have the chapters one of their working mangas than after a while of saying that they switch back to showing off.

"DNA, DNA, DNA is some scary shit" LMAO, Takagi is pretty funny.

Gotta love Mashiro's perfectly rendered Nikes, too.

Great Chapter.

Destiny is truly a strange beast, good dialouge as always.

Anyway why does this have to be a long manga, a nice short one will work, 50-100 chapters isn't a bad thing.

Also next time we actually start the manga.

the dialogue and interactions are one of the best i have seen. twists of fate, becoming a man, doing what is right. i have to say i am quite glad that so far that this manga has managed to steer away from the usual cliches. i wonder how long the series will run and old will the characters get.

I liked it and disliked it at the same time. Somehow, till now - due to the whole reason why Mashiro wants to become a mangaka - it just doesn't seem like my type of series. Sure, the conversations are really well-made but... if they don't reach the making manga part fast, it's gonna get really tiring.

Haha, that reminds me of the first chapter. "Don't be serious it's not a death note" Something like that XD

Great Chapter.


My thoughts exactly. That line is the quote of the year.

Still, a great chapter (as I've been saying since chapter 1). The dialogue is excellent, the characters have wonderful interactions and the art is still great. This is quickly becoming one of my favorite series running in SJ right now. Now, here's to hoping that Obata and Ohba can keep it up.

Oh this was a cool chappie.... in fact I risked my arrival time to school today but it was worth it :P The chappie rocked all the way with the dialogues, the art - no one has mentioned before in these chapter discussions- was awesome!... Has anyone got an eye on it...? it's superb... I dun remember if DN's art was like that, but I really love Bakuman's art... is so hot XD

Now... DNA is really a funny thing... so fate/hitzusen/destiny is/are...I guess that really happens... it's so crazy... Well let's what Obha-san and Obata-san have for us in store in the future :P

PS: the guy/gal who hated the chappie should tell us why ne?

i might be speaking too soon but there's nothing really that interesting about this manga. i'll keep reading since it is by the same person do did death note and that manga was brilliant - plus i like takeshi obata's art.

however, takagi is very funny :)

Unlabelled box haha I bet it's a XXX dvd or something
Exchanging letters for almost 10years then she will get married, that gotta be painful and maybe commit suicide cause his gambled love for nothing. Woah! this is a breaking event, Azuki was Mizuki's mom which Uncle likes. Takagi's so shameless but funny - asking about love 1st.

Well she's right.. men really have to act 1st damnit haha
*Smart guys never were my type hehe, Takagi's busted

I like the part were Mizuki telling Takagi that don't tell Miho too

It's nice that Miho's mom wasn't against the idea of Moritaka and Miho dating. Everything's just going so smoothly. Hope it stays that way a little longer. But I wonder why Moritaka didn't want Miho to know about his uncle.
