Can someone fill me in here? As someone who solewatches the anime, who is petra and allessandro. I don't recall those characters ever being mentioned.

Just on a side note, I think Triela prolly has the least about of body modifications seeing that she still has a uterus and is able to have her period.

They're from manga starting at vol. 6. If season 2 is going to end where I think it is (end of vol. 5), they won't show up this season.

Spoiler for Vol. 6 and on.:

Doujinshi period Petrushka. (Note: This was released C64, or summer 2003, so about a year after GSG was serialized)


The current serialized version is very different from this. I have to say though, this old version is very awesome looking. In the gaiden,
Spoiler:


The five doujinshi period manga chapters are about 70% translated. I was planning on translating all the author comments and sketches as well, but there's a whole lot of them, so I'm looking for extra translators and an editor/typesetter. PM me if you can help out.

I'm undecided on whether to scanlate the gaiden. It's 18+, and GSG is quite possibly one of the most awkward series to have H scenes, but it is from the original author...

Iirc, the opening video of the game was also done by Makoto Shinkai. I know nothing of the story but it's quite a pretty teaser.

Awesome, looking forward to reading it (someday). Some people would probably prefer having that in spoiler tags though.

And too bad she had to die to save Triela, I would've liked to see her in the Manga more.

Her death does left a purpose
I can imagine, if Rachel still alive, there will be no gitai under the name of Triella

We have already seen shades of a live action GSG in Leon.

That is until somebody writes a feasible GSG script and gets Luc Besson's attention to it.

ADV site for manga has never been that great on current stuff or updates.

We don't really know if they will release volume 8 and the just released number 9. Probably one day.

At the end of volume 6 they showed a preview/add for volume 7. But with all their company problems who knows when they'll release it. From volume 1 to 2 it was nearlly 2 1/2 years. 3 to 4 over two years passed.

I've hand number 7 since July of 06 almost 2 years. Way too long.

Ok the Volume 7 I have is the official Japanese one, infact I have all 9 volumes in japanese. I also have the first 6 by ADV in english.

Plus I get each new chapter in japanese as its released. 52 was the last chapter and the new ones come out about once a month. Can't really script it since it's kind of time consuming to translate it and type it up in english.

What happened is I got tired of waiting for the english ones by ADV so I started getting the japanese ones first since they come out in a timely manner. Plus the quality is much better for the paper and printing etc. If you know chinese they are up to number 8, but I only read english and japanese.

As for ADV dropping the series that's all rumors/here say for now. I doubt they gave up on it but who knows if they will take another 2 years to release volume 7. Their was a add for it but no one has a release date, not amazon or anybody as of yet.

Personally volume 7 rocks but 8 and 9 where kind of boring. But 10 is looking good.
