Lost in London

There is a vampire managa where the vampires sparkle.. and it's much older than Twilight....

I don't think so, in the first chapter they made a reference to Twilight.

Ah, man.  The gradual buildup phase in the early part of the manga was pretty good, and then--all dressed up with noplace to go, fell back on the cliche set piece routine, then didn't even stick the landing.  Like, the cliche climactic battle built, built and then--poof!

What a disappointment.

I really want to add "But still better than Twilight!" but somehow I'm not so sure it really is. -.-

It isn't better and the ending felt very rushed. Did it get axed? Either way it's good that it ended because I've felt like dropping it for a long time.

Too bad its potential was wasted like that, the world needs more quality vampire Manga which Lost in London definitely is not.

Even though she filled her "void" to me it still feels like she was regressing through the story.

Will the plot actually go somewhere interesting anytime soon? This one's getting pretty meh lately.

Ah, and luckily Anna's just as bad.

This is getting a bit silly.  Noah, ageless old sport, how long have you existed and still haven't learned how to communicate?

To be fair, the woman who wrote twilight, and i forget her name, borrowed lots of motifs including the ability to read minds from existing myths but also from a more recent publication which apparently has the exact same cover art of an apple. Just given a more mormon bent, what with the whole no sex before marriage spiel. Her books stole off another series, she just wrote more compellingly had better marketing.

There, fixed that for you.

It was shelved due to lack of raws.

 

We were only recently contacted by Love-manhwa about the availability of raws. So it's through their generosity we can continue the series.

Yeah but the fact that EGS even decided to pick it back up after 2 years is really amazing to me. When mangas get shelved for lack of raws, more often than not, it stays shelved for that group even when raws become avail. until someone else decides to come along to take over the project and bring it to another group. I don't have a ranking of scanlators but if I did, EGS would be in the running for #1 considering all the other work and how much you push out. 

Here I am skimming the updates and suddenly this title catches my eye and I think "it couldn't be..." I'm shocked that it's been 2 years. I guess this shows that even if a group like EGS doesn't update for 2 years, there is some sliver of hope

Well, they're Easy Going, so I guess they took a little break.  But here's another chapter, so hurrah!

Has this series been stopped?

It is almost impossible for anything to be "Twilight like". Well, unless the vampires are actually sparkly. To the contrary, Twilight simply borrowed a bunch of existing vampire and werewolf motifs from fiction and even roleplaying games; but the author did not succeed in stealing that stuff; she could not make it her own.
Honest to Stoker, the fantasy section of the bookstores has been filled with vampire and werewolf stuff for like twenty years now; when it started I thought it was a fad but it turned into an annoying megatrend and never went away. And although as a trend it was annoying, there is a bunch of stuff in all those mounds of vampire books that is way better than &*#$ing Twilight. Lost in London is like some of those, it's not like Twilight.

i have a feeling that Sen's pretending to steal her...
maybe he's just curious as what Andrachi wants...

Hey y is it giving me the feeling that it's going to b a Twilight-like manga? I hope they don't sparkle ><

hmmm... guess have to wait again...

i want to demand noa but impossiblue,, ..

Hmmm . . . I'm liking the way there are complications brewing on the human side as well. Both "weird" ones and more mundane.

oh oh something's cookin'!!

why do i always get caught up in those vampire stuff

"yes Sen, Anna wont do anything that will make Noah jealous!"

lolled! kehehe..

There were hundreds of vampire stories before Twilight, there will be hundreds after. For all its popularity, I don't think it's had a lot of impact on the genre. With a bit of luck, these ones don't sparkle.

Am I reading twilight?
