Manga reading on my phone

Roughly more than 1 month ago I saw a guy reading manga while riding the bus. I was thick faced enough to ask him what app was that and quickly installed it when I got to my seat in office. The app is called Manga Rock.

At the top of the popular list of manga is of course Naruto, Fairy Tail and Bleach. In summary that means that I will be able to read those new popular manga while I am on my way to work or home. After reading up to the latest release, I found that these long series will have a similar theme. Fairy Tail loves to use time ie deadlines (ironically just like real life work, LOL) and the characters somehow refuse to die or will not be out of energy no matter how tired they claim to be. Recuperation rate is too unbelievable in my opinion. Bleach on the other hand is somewhat like Dragon Ball, there will ALWAYS be someone stronger and the main character will somehow managed to get stronger but not before getting his ass kicked. Ichigo (the main character, a guy whose name means strawberry =_=||| how gay is that!!!) reminds me so much of Son Goku that he uses his strength to help his friends more often than not ignoring his own safety but always coming out on top.

I also managed to finish reading the real stories of some of the anime which I have watched. The stories vary quite a far bit and I take side with the people who have read it before watching the anime that the stories in the manga is much better than the anime though it is much faster to watch and it might also explain some scenes which have no script or interesting fight scenes which cannot be properly portrayed using still pictures.

When I really think about it, there are so many manga which I want to read now that I don't seem to have enough time to finish them all :( It has crossed my mind quite a few times to re-read old manga ie Dragon Ball and Rurouni Kenshin but those might have to wait quite some while :p

I find this as the funniest in between fillers ROFLMAO. Frankly speaking I didn't get it until almost the end of the series :Þ
