Well guess that an introduction is in order when you chose to visit a place for that first time so here it is : HI!

I'm french and a huge manga reader, passed the 500 landmark recently.
I'm a staff in TrollScans and Xscansx (I know that there is some issue with batoto currently, trying to get things back in gears).
I mainly work on project by the mangaka Boichi because I'm a huge fan of him. You might know some of his work : Sun Ken Rock, Space Chef Caisar, Hotel, Diadem, Present, Lovers in Winter (for the perv). However he still has more yet untranslated work and so my goal is to scanlate all those remaining one.
I also created a website dedicated to Sun Ken Rock and him : www.sunkenrock.com because info about that mangaka are rare and hard to find.

Now, as we are in a manga community, I guess that those following TOP 10 are what will describe me the best:

My TOP 10 manga :
1 Sun-Ken Rock
- Battle Angel Alita - The Last Order
- Battle Angel Alita
- Until Death do us Part
- Aiki
- One Piece
- Berzerk
- Hotel
- Akumetsu
10 Mahou Sensei Negima


My TOP 10 male character :
1 Kitano Ken (Sun Ken Rock)
- Kunitoshi Joukyuu (Aiki)
- Guts (Berserk)
- Mamoru Hijikata (Until Death do us Part)
- Shou (Akumetsu)
- Negi Springfield (Mahou Sensei Negima)
- Eikichi Onizuka (GTO, GTO : Shonan 14 days)
- Monkey D. Luffy (One Piece)
- Yang San-Dae aka "PickAxe" (Sun Ken Rock)
10 Hiruma Yoichi (Eyeshield 21)


My TOP 10 female character :
1 Alita (Battle Angel Alita, Battle Angel Alita - The Last Order, Battle Angel Alita - Other Stories)
- Evangeline A.K. McDowell (Mahou Sensei Negima)
- Kim Kae-Lin (Sun Ken Rock)
- Revy aka "Two Hand" (Black Lagoon)
- Road Kamelot (D.Gray Man)
- Seras Victoria (Hellsing)
- Yumin Yoshizawa (Sun Ken Rock)
- Holo (Spice and Wolf)
- Shiranui Hansode (Medaka Box)
- Chachamaru Karakuri (Mahou Sensei Negima)
10 Urumi Kanzaki (GTO)

Well, tell me your opinion, point of view or any other random thing.

I've read each of the manga of my TOP 10 at least 4 time. The one I've reread the most is Battle Angel Alita, 9 times in French and 5 times in English :P
I really recommend all those manga if you are in search of great read, thought like you might have seen they are more seinen oriented.

:P, i love all manga as long they have a good story, sometimes with a bad story though(don't read it often). and ofcourse i'd prefer good art battle angel alita looks interesting however i dont like the drawings because it's to old looking(probably because the manga is old though :P)


perhaps you can read immortal regis and after that cavalier of the abyss

OOH DON'T FORGET TO TAKE A LOOK AT "The breaker" and after that "the breaker new waves" FREAKING awesome :P

at the moment more is not coming to mind probably because the name :P or did not read it a long time, you could consider reading some cosmic's to.

Noblesse, Tower of God and hmm.. seems like can't remember the name either -.- probably because my head is not working atm(I'm sick atm :P)

yeah from Xscansx but I support Bototo's idea all the way!

@laurens_dragicevic, I don't think that you'll be able to recommend me something really good that I have yet to read...
here is my reading list, and I stopped updating it a month ago...

Nice list :P, although if i'd started to make a list it would be bigger then that( i mean my completed list :P ). also read ubel blatt which is also in your reading list it's pretty good. mostly when i read manga it difers per mood i guess.. there are days i'm just to lazy to read and some days i can read it the whole night(Happends pretty often when i'm reading a big manga).. i can't sleep when i'm reading something i like and not finishing it. like i did with zippy ziggy(Started to late reading, went half dead to school :P )

Welcome to Batoto! Enjoy your stay.
There is one quality which one must possess to win, and that is definiteness of purpose, the knowledge of what one wants, and a burning desire to possess it.

Space Chef Caisar is pure awesimness too. We also have a chapter ready for that one.
If you want you can read Hotel, no boobs in it and it's the best oneshot ever.

I've read that one, it's a bit sad :P although did not read it whole heartedly probably because it's one shot :P

i never liked small manga's because it ends so fast
