You can always try their channel at mirc to get their releases, they also link you to another place to download their mangas. You know Black Cat kinda reminds me of Cowboy Bebop with a bit of Hunter X Hunter.

I guess TW released only 1-3 and not the rest.
Maybe they are still working on the new volume? Does it air volumely or chapterly over Japan?

I say I guess because they are releasing it here right now.
Hurrah!

Ookla The Mok 2004-02-17 10:46

go to www.manganews.net if you're looking for what groups do what manga series

I like Black Cat and have all the books, but other series I like more take priority.

If you want manga in Japanese you ought to buy it. For scans of unlicensed manga there is a sticky in the forum explaining how to find them.

Tsuki_Phoenix 2004-02-18 07:40

Erm....I know this is a "where can I find manga" topic really....

But I just have to praise Black Cat's greatness!!!!

^_^

This manga is just so awesome!

Train Heartnet is one of the coolest characters I have seen!

AND HADES THE GUN DESERVES HIS OWN MANGA SERIES! He is like a character of his own!

The mixture of Train's past and great abilities and personality...

*swoons like a fangirl*

But yeah....if you haven't read this then you should do so RIGHT NOW.

^^

Bullsquat 2004-02-22 16:12

Am I the only one who thinks that Black Cat is a rip-off off Cowboy Bebop?

chamelean75 2004-02-22 19:21

Can someone give me a quick summary of what Black Cat is about?

Newprimus 2004-04-09 16:59

Black Cat - What is it? Where is it?
 
There's already two old threads about this, but I want to give this topic a sort of "fresh start" so:




Take your typical Spike and Jet bounty hunter pair, add the professional thief/gambler (Faye). Subtract dog, replace child computer genius with child nanotech-enhanced secret weapons experiment, and you have something a lot like Cowboy Bebop to some extent.

There's even a former partner villain and his gang of superhuman subordinates, along with an organization like SEELE that controls the world basically.


You will now be thinking, with a story that's so inspired (or ripped-off of, depending on how you wanna look at it :D ) by previous works, why should you pay any attention to it?

Well, to put it very simply, it's fun. And gets even more, and more fun the more you read on. Soon, you will be addicted to this manga like a crackwhore on withdrawal.


Here's the gang (Don't mind the Akatsuki logo, I found it on their site):


http://img40.photobucket.com/albums/...tsuki_logo.jpg

Train (Spike Siegel clone ^_^) on the hood of the car, Sven (Jet clone) at the wheel, and Eve (nanotech girl) behind him.



If you have time, try it out. You have to go in a bit to where they introduce Eve to start reading the good parts, but it gets quickly better after that.



Also, here's a cute little scene from volume 2 as a sample. I think it's safe, given that it doesn't reveal anything I haven't already revealed in my OP:




http://img40.photobucket.com/albums/...ckCat11-15.png


And aye, Eve is teh cute. :D



So, where can you find this manga?


1. As apparent above, from Akatsuki Manga. They have up to volume 10 and half of 11 or so translated.

2. Chronos Time Guardians. They have up to chapter 101, somewhere in volume 11, translated. Volumes 6 to 11 are available via HTTP once you register free on their forums. Very convenient I say.

3. Toriyama World. Only up to volume 3 translated.


Google search for these and you should come up upon their sites very quickly. Give this manga a spin sometime. ;)

eLstar 2004-04-09 20:32

It would've been easier to just post in the previous ones...but oh well.

This is definitely a good series. One of my very favourites. The only problem I have is ToriyamaWorld not doing this series compared to their other ones. I liked their translations but the other competition is just as good, and maybe even better.

AnimeFangirl 2004-04-11 05:41

Black Cat isn't bad. The nastiest part is that near-paedophilic relationship that Sven and Eve seem to have, with Train as the third wheel. Plus I hate how weak all the Time Guardians are turning out to be, it's really pathetic. Apart from that I seem to be enjoying it quite a bit.

eLstar 2004-04-11 19:23

They seem pretty damn strong to me.

Belze is a badass.

I wouldn't really call it pedophilic just cause the two happen to be her guardians (either officially or unofficially). None of the two adults are making any kind of overt advances toward Eve or vice-versa.


Just my two cents and an advice: don't overreact. ;)

AnimeFangirl 2004-04-12 14:39

No, no. The relationship between Train and Eve I could call "guardianship," but Sven and Eve are practically man and wife!! Did you notice
Spoiler:
It's sick, I tell you, sick!!! :twitch:

ubb 2004-04-12 15:40

I hope no one took dorfl's comment about sven and eve's relationship seriously.

AnimeFangirl 2004-04-12 15:48

I certainly take it seriously enough. :eyebrow:
Btw, did I mention how much I dislike Eve? She's a completely unnecessary addition to the cast - does nothing for me, does nothing for most of the cast and as for what she does for Sven... well, enough about that. :heh: I won't let her ruin my fun. Go, Train, go!!

Ookla The Mok 2004-04-12 18:25

Eve is my favorite character. I think she's underutilized.

She should have her own series!

bOcyOgl 2004-04-12 18:43

I would love to see a relationship between Eve and teenage Train ~ Eve is really lovely ^^ Volume 11's Cover is very sexy too ~

Spoiler for big volume 11 cover ahead:

nojevo 2004-04-12 20:21

Eve is such a cutie! I just can't get enough of her :D

Eve is a necessity simply because she's the Edward of Black Cat.

I'm currently reading the manga Dogs by Miwa Shirou , and I notice a lot of striking parallels between that one and Black Cat. The guns don't count because guns are everywhere, but
Spoiler:
These really struck me, though I don't want to accuse either mangaka of "copying" the other.

Is that licensed or scanslated?

AnimeFangirl 2004-04-24 15:12

Scanslated by the kind people over at http://mangatranslation.com/dogs/

Black Cat
 
What did you like or dislike about Black Cat it the Anime or the Manga?

I liked it because it was an interesting story, but it wasn't perfect. I still felt as if it had some plot holes. I think it's because I felt the creator originally wanted to go one direction, but then decided to go another.

Super Ska Master 2006-08-18 10:37

I like it cuz Train's gun is cool looking hahahaha. Creed's invisible sword is neat too. =P

Black Cat
 
Hello All. I'm new here... what do you all think of Black Cat? Anyone read them? I just got the 1st volume tonight! :help:

Magin 2008-12-02 12:16

My opinion- there was only one thing wrong with the manga, and that was at the very end:

Spoiler for Black Cat final battle result:



and the anime... well, I haven't seen much of the anime to draw any conclusion

Bad. Very bad.

Spoiler for final arc:


Stick with the manga, Train isn't the emo-fest that he is at the beginning of the anime.

It's quite entertaining, for a fan of the manga. It's different from the manga in various areas, but it's still good there. The last arc was... so-so and odd, but it doesn't ruin much. If you are a fan of Black Cat, be sure to watch it~

To think the manga-ka of this is writing that To-Love-Ru thing now... Haa, zetsuboushita! Shimashita!

the beginning of the anime is very good but the ending imo was really crappy >.<

Spoiler for for what the anime lacked compared to the manga:

Magin 2008-12-02 16:57

Well, I should say this:

I haven't actually seen the anime (well, escept for the first couple episodes), but I'm well aware of how things go...

L'sLover 2008-12-04 09:23

Hiya everyone
i love the manga but i really do not like the anime
i think Rinslet and Train would be a really cute couple
i hate Saya

Pikasprey 2010-09-11 19:46

Black Cat
 
This is without a doubt my favorite manga. I got into it after I watched the anime (also amazing). To me, it is the perfect combination of comedy and action.

LeaD36 2012-03-01 10:15

So i dag up this thread, just to pay my respects to this awesome series (currently at ch132)
and i just had to comment on : Son Gohan(Goku) vs Piccolo?
