(L) Gangsta [Manga]

[Stark700]

Genres: Action, Comedy, Drama, Mature, Seinen

Plot Summary:

In the city of Ergastulum, a shady ville filled with made men and petty thieves, whores on the make and cops on the take, there are some deeds too dirty for even its jaded inhabitants to touch. Enter the "Handymen," Nic and Worick, who take care of the jobs no one else will handle. Until the day when a cop they know on the force requests their help in taking down a new gang muscling in on the territory of a top Mafia family. It seems like business (and mayhem) as usual, but the Handymen are about to find that this job is a lot more than they bargained for.

Licensed by Viz. Anyone else been following this series? It has been getting numerous releases the past few weeks and personally, I think it's been quite interesting with the mature setting and characters. There's the gang rivalry and dealing with various characters' roles in this story. There's an anime adaptation announced to premiere for Summer this year so looking forward to that as well

[Queen of Corners]

I find it hard to believe that no one is reading this. I mean... mafia city, lots of action and interesting and sympathetic characters. What's there not to like? It's gotten really interesting lately and I honestly can't wait for the anime adaptation.

[Utsuro no Hako]

I thought the first few volumes were so-so, but once everything went to hell in the fourth volume, it became one of the best action series around. I just hope the anime is two cours so they can fit everything in.

[Queen of Corners]

I'm almost positive that it's two cour, after seeing the latest visual. I'm more worried about how the anime will handle some of the more controversial stuff.

Well, I just finished binge reading. Now I wish I hadn't. I'm not cool with this whole ntr and rape thing. Can someone just confirm something for me? The test sample Nicholas took, am I to understand that it grants permanent boosts in power if he survives?

That said, I've decided not to even watch until my crime coefficient calms.

After NA, I doubt that anything surprised me. the anime is decent? or have a lot of censorship?

What's NA? I said before I'm not watching the anime.

Spoiler for spoiler aobut NA:

Nozoki Ana, this series showed me the most depressing NTR scene I've ever seen in a work of fiction, I really felt bad.

Hmm as I recall the test sample the doc (Theo) made was something he had been working on for some time, from what I gathered if Nicholas does survive he will indeed gain a major boost as you know he is actually a "B-rank" only when he is 100% i.e taking the boost meds (upper) which makes him "A/0 rank" hence those who know him from Gina's guild call him a "fake" then again he is one the very few who can actually level up. From his fight with Erika and that kid its pretty clear he surpassed the "A rank" he once was most likely hitting "S rank" like Gina.

Rather I am more interested as to why Nina has such a weird ability in which she can hear Worick's voice.
I think the last chapter I read was that one where the bag was delivered....

[tuckersister]

Alex really cares about Worick. Emilio starts to see the bad shit of the Destroyers. He is also starting to have second thoughts. Alex and Emilio still haven't meet yet. They will probably soon after what Worick recently just did in the current chapter.

Manga is back from hiatus in January. But where's the chapters?

[Twi]

The manga updated with Chapters 40 and 41. This series is ludicrously dark.


Edit: 42 continues the darkness.

[Twi]

The manga updated today. Things continue to get worse.
