Anyone still follow Nabari around here? It's supposed to end in September.

It's probably a good place to stop, even though I'll miss it. It's one of the first manga I started following regularly, and I'll probably always have a soft spot for it. Looking back, I just love everything about it -- the art, the characters, the plot, the feelings you get from reading it. It's a bittersweet, melancholy manga, but it's definitely up there with my favorites.

Any Japanese raw readers willing to fill me in on what happened?

Spoiler for chapter 69:

I'm still a little murky on some of the details, but apparently Kouichi and Shijima have severed all ties with Fuuma, and Thobari has been seriously injured (by Fuuma). Raikou and Raimei show up to save the day (hopefully) at the end of the chapter.

There are still at least three chapters that haven't been scanlated yet, so it's hard telling what's going on for sure. I just know that shit's starting to hit the fan and I'm nervous about the ending. I expect it to end on a bittersweet note, but I hope there's not a pile of bodies at the end of all this. If anything happens to Yukimi, I'm going to be one sad lady.

Here's hoping something about Yoite/his memories are resolved (or at least mentioned), too. It just wouldn't feel quite right to me if Kamatani left that hanging.
