Into this world stalks Gamma Akutabi, a man with a metal arm and a six-foot chainsaw, cybernetically enhanced master of the legendary martial art . But it takes more than one man to find the ultimate prize. You need a team: super-gunman C.T. Smith, knife-slinging teenager Elwood, and brilliant (and impossibly big-breasted) journalist Wolfgangina.

Against an army of crooks and killers, against runaway trains and superpowered madmen, they'll need all their skills... but the most dangerous thing in the west might be the Rings themselves...

Promised to have Rune Master Urara and Ultra Unholy Hearted Machine included, but there is none. Please update description. Where may I read this?

Last uploaded chapter is in Spanish. And not a very good Spanish. I really hope "travajando" was a typo and not misspelling.

O.o Thanks for discovering this error, is a very serious mistake, and yes, it was a typo, I guess it was because the "b" is close to "v" on the keyboard. right now I fix it, but I disagree with you about that it's a bad Spanish just for that mistake.

 
I take your comment for improve our Scan :)
 
regards!

Like it says in the description, Bad Shield United is just a oneshot ^^
The last chapter ( Bad Shield United ) doesnt seem to be part of Zombie Powder . Or is it ?
not only for this, but for all manga, i can only recommend the original. i've seen silly mistakes both in scanlations and in licensed english versions

the translations vile presents from the "original english volume" don't always correspond too well to the original japanese version (yes, i really downloaded the raws just to check...), some places the scanlation with it's bad english (because of very literal translation) was closer to the right answer. and other places probably not...

of course, i'll still recommend that you buy the manga, in whichever version you prefer. just to support the mangaka
That extra poem last chapter... is actually just a poem, not a chapter if anyone was wondering ^^
Yes, I just read through everything and even though it was canceled I was surprisingly pleased with the ending. At least they don't leave you on a giant cliff hanger.

I didn't mean to bash the scans from before, but it's true that the translations are sub par compared to the original source. I would recommend purchasing the original if you can find it, but that wouldn't necessarily help promote the manga since it's already pretty much been finalized as a canceled project.
Well these are just scanlations after all ^^ no need to bash them. I'd always recommend reading the original or licensed version. And fyi Zombie Powder was cancelled
Yeah, never-mind about minor differences. These translations are terrible. They completely change the names of moves and their meanings.

You've been warned.
Here is one more example:

Beginning of chapter 7, volume 1, second dialog page.

Panel 1:
Ranewater Calder:
WHA

...?!

Gamma Akutabi:
YOU DON'T HAVE TO TELL ME TO DO IT.

Panel 2:

Gamma Akutabi:
NOW THAT I KNOW YOUR CHILD'S BODY WAS CREATED BY DRUGS...

THERE'S NO REASON FOR ME TO HOLD BACK!!

Once again, the differences are minor but noticeable. (Obviously not the best translations.)
Well the translations are not the same from the original English volume.

For example:

First and second panel from left to right should be as such,

IT IS THE DEVIL'S MEDICINE, A POWDER THAT CAN RAISE THE DEAD AND GRANT THE LIVING ETERNAL LIFE.

NO ONE KNOWS HOW MANY HAVE SOUGHT IT... STMBLING ALONG A ROAD... OF ENDLESS BULLETS AND BLOOD.

Second Panel:

THIS MAN TOO...

HAS MADE HIS LIFE A PART OF THE STORY.

For me who has the original it is an annoying difference.
WHAT?!! Wait, I thought this was canceled?! I actually have the beginning chapter of Zombie Powder in my bedroom from when this first came out. Does this continue on towards a conclusive ending or does it dip off suddenly? (Is what I'm wondering.)

Well, time to find out!
Ah Tite Kubo's first work. Always meant to read this, has a Trigun feel to it, which isn't a bad thing.
