Youko Recca · 2003-12-07, 10:38

is there an anime for it?

snoopy · 2003-12-07, 11:04

It has an animated commercial made by Shonen Sunday, but it's too new to have spawned a TV series.

You can find the animation link here: http://websunday.net/theater/

fenrihr · 2003-12-08, 19:26

love it! at least the little that i've gotten to read. oh. thanks for bringing it to us snoopy! heh.

snoopy · 2003-12-08, 19:52

Honestly, MAR didn't really hold my attention until right about where we've currently released, and then chapter 29 nearly caused me to have a heart attack (a profoundly "

" moment), but then it recovered. Now I'm seriously looking forward to each chapter. In fact, it ruined my day finding out that Anzai's taking a break next week... no Alviss for me...

Youko Recca · 2003-12-10, 23:19

I've heard good things about Alviss,you hav any pics?

snoopy · 2003-12-11, 10:18

Not currently scanned in. He's pretty much just returned in the current chapters, but he's getting lots of scenes. And he has a new outfit.

guynextdoor · 2003-12-13, 20:27

hmm. can anyone explain to me what's it all about? just a short summary will do

snoopy · 2003-12-14, 02:09

Lesse... Toramizu Ginta has dreams about a fairytale land for years, then one day he's given an opportunity to travel to that land later revealed to be named 'Mar-Heaven' (there's these 2 dots over the 'a' in 'Mar'... but I can't seem to get the forum to register them when I type it in... :/). He goes around, finds a mysterious weapon ARM (all weapons are known as 'ARMs', also with the two dots, they're magic... things, lots of different kinds, that do stuff like create fire or summon giant beasts). He finds companions, fights an evil group of warriors calling themselves the 'Chess no Koma', and generally just messes around until volume 4 ^_^U

Um, I recommend that if you try it, you give it 2 volumes before you pass jugdement, 'cause there are some "

" moments in the beginning.

Mad_Baka · 2006-01-07, 18:09

i've been following the Viz releases of this manga
pretty damn good not flame of recca good but good

anybody else reading it still?

cheese no koma · 2006-01-09, 06:31

i haven't read the manga, but i have watched the anime up to episode 39. There hasn't been any blood spilling scene so far, i wonder if its the same in the manga

Yubikiri · 2006-01-09, 23:30

i loved it...compared to the anime version the manga wins out by miles
i'm currently up to volume 12 and yes there is definately blood in the manga

cheese no koma · 2006-01-10, 15:05

has volume 12 cover any fights in the 5th round of war game yet?

Aoie_Emesai · 2006-01-10, 15:52

Personally i like MAR better than Flame Of Recca, the ninja thing just wasn't for me. But then we got the dumb Ginta, who's a total laugh and along with jack who's even a greater laugh than Ginta. Then you got Dorothy, the hot witch. Hahhahha ^_^. Overall it's a great manga and i've lost places to dl the scans so im stuck getting Vizs copy of it.

cheese no koma · 2006-01-11, 16:34

chapter 107 is out, its going to be the nanashi's show.

ShadowClone · 2006-01-17, 23:08

I somehow found Galian's motivations for joining the Chess rather weak...

Spoiler:

All that foreshadowing with Nanashi seemed to be diminshed because of this, and thus their (destined) battle just becomes another normal tournament match, when it could have been more.

cheese no koma · 2006-01-18, 05:52

i kinda agree with you there, but i'm still hoping that they would add more reasons to it like maybe galian join the chess to avoid any bloodshed on his comrades at that time when peta asks him coz he's weaker than peta

Potatochobit · 2006-02-03, 03:11

i like MAR very much...

however, i think it will fail in the US market.

there really isnt this kind of audience for it. it targets the middleschool aged kids, and i dont see them buying much manga at the store.

ShadowClone Genin Featherweight Join Date: Nov 2003 Location: Konoha Boxing Gym (KBG)	I somehow found Galian's motivations for joining the Chess rather weak... Spoiler: you'd think that since this was Luberia's former Boss, he'd have stronger principles rather than just be immediately blinded by the Chess' offer of power. All that foreshadowing with Nanashi seemed to be diminshed because of this, and thus their (destined) battle just becomes another normal tournament match, when it could have been more.
