Tokyo Underground

[beanieboy007]

The story of several companions in their quest to save Ruri from "The Company"
by venturing forth into the land of Tokyo Underground.

There, they are to face the henchmen of the Company & the powers they possess.

Luckally, our heros are not unequipt themselves,... except for maybe the dude with glasses. (or is he?)

i just watched the anime, but later shinnosuke (OMG HOW 2 WRITE?), gets a gun from a friendly guy from the underground. he can perform ice skills with that i think. but megane-kun (i think he was called like that by ruris friend, cuz of his glasses) has no skill on his own. there is just one person with such skills who does not live in the underground. and thats our hero. :bow:

I've seen the anime and read some of the manga, for those who read the manga to the most recent volumes Rumina Asagi and Chelsea Rourke relationship develop to anything more than friends? It just seems they would be a great couple, and there were subtle hints of something more. spoiler would be appreciated.

[akurashy]

.. man i also wanted chelsea and asagi together, but i haven't bothered reading the manga or anything, (i watched the series it was pretty good, though the some of the BGM were a bit annoying)

Fyi, the manga has ended at 14 volumes. I definitely liked the manga ending better, too bad the anime couldn't have extened past the 26-episode habit and followed the manga more. Although they would have had a problem with catching up to the manga, and making filler episodes to give the manga some time wouldn't have worked in this series. :(

Yeah, Chelsea and Rumina start kicking it up a bit in the later volumes before they launch their final all-out attack on the Company. She even took him out on a date to the carnival. (not an "official" date though, of course ;) )

Then in the final volume, after Pyron killed Chelsea ( :twitch: ), she had a Newtype-contact similar thing with Rumina (who was out cold from his wounds suffered when he got his arse kicked by Kashin), she kissed him. :D In the end though, they're relationship drew the kine at being friends and partners who had some romantic interest in each other.

Personally though, I like RuminaxRuri so much better. :love: They just go so well together! That shot on the final page of the manga where Ruri jumped into Rumina's arms at school was, simply put, beautiful. :love: I'd scan it and post it if I weren't worried about screwing up the spine on the book. :(

[Ashi-chan]

Are there any other groups scanlating this series? I think the furthest complete volume Anime Empire has is six. I really like the series, though. I wish I could find the rest. No one's looking to license the manga, it seems.

Chelsea did kiss him (imaginatively) before he headed off for the final fight, but it wasn't really a confession or anything and was one-sided (-ish). In the end, he and Ruri hugged before "the end," then later after the "some time later" stuff, Chelsea shows back up saying that she's only there to escort Ruri as always, and Ruri jumps down off the water tower above the school into Rumina's arms. (and fyi, not all the way from the roof of the school to the ground, they were all already ont he roof :heh: )

Thanks Shinji103

Damn I wish this was complete in English. I also only saw the anime and figured the manga had to have gone better and longer. Though I guess no English publisher has picked it up.

I was a Rumina x Chelsea fan personally.

[cjl]

I loved the anime up to the ending, which I think was rushed. Does the manga finish the story better?

[Alchemist007]

Apparently so. I ordered the raw on ebay.

[Yaluen]

the manga finishes the story, for sure. Whether it's a good finish or not is up to you to decide. Personally, I found the climax to be a little bit awkward, and the reintroduction of Ruri was kinda like "...whoa, I forgot she even existed", considering she got punted to the side for a good duration of the manga (lampshaded by the author himself).

All side characters pretty much get shoved offscreen at the end of the series, though, but you still get a pretty satisfactory ending for Rumina, Chelsea, and Ruri.

Rumina x Chelsea fans, you will not be disappointed by the story's progression, I can guarantee that. If only they had proper resolutions for the rest of the cast, though...

[Alchemist007]

Finally got to seeing it myself. Seems to be rushed for an ending. But I guess I'm always expecting something big. I'm guessing this author is known for "conclude it yourself" type endings?
