SPOILERS THIS BIG! When I do get around to it I would seriously suggest considering whether you want to spoil the series yet or wait until you have the books. |

Great work on the summaries, guys. Can't wait for the next one!
I for one wouldn't mind having the entire series spoiled by a summary of Volume 10 as I doubt I'd ever be able to find out what happens by any other means. Note: Griffith enjoys drinking Tang. |

I'm hoping to post the summary for Volume 10 this week. (and then post some Guyver ones before returning to finish Narutaru).
Unfortunately I was away at the weekend (when I'd usually do it) at a Karate seminar and even more unfortunately have picked up a wrist injury (so typing isnt easy..........). (I'd also like to state the fact that the injury is Karate and not Hentai related ) |

OK Double posting to give you the Volume 10 Synopsis (so be nice ok!)
Narutaru Vol 10 Summary: Following the crash of a US military transport, Shiina and Hoshimaru investigate the area in southern Japan which seems to also have been the source of a mysterious vision Shiina had. With Tsurumaru and Vagina Dentata secretly trailing her for her protection Norio faces an agonizing decision as the deadly consequences of Tsurumaru's actions become apparent. Meanwhile Miyako Tatsumi (of the Japanese government) and Sudou-kun smell a rat and try to get to the truth of the matter, coming to a shocking conclusion the US military will stop at nothing to retrieve one of their own escaped dragon children. What plot have they hatched to take advantage of the situation? Who is the rough and ready Jen Franklin, and what is her connection to the escaped Dragon Child? Will she be Shiina's ally or enemy? Narutaru Volume 10 Spoiler Summary: Part One OK, Stop right here! No seriously! I've tried to give you more than adequate summary above, only read this if absolutely must! I can accept no blame(!) for ruining your enjoyment of the series...... Spoiler:

Wow, that's.. pretty fucked up heh I had heard some of what happened before, but I didn't think it would be this bad. How graphic is the violence? And are the next two volumes even more disturbing? I'll definetly be reading the summaries to those as well, even if I get the manga before then as I'm enjoying these very much. Thanks for providing them to us!

I just got the rest of the Japanese Narutaru manga that were on back order, including volume 6.
I though the anime was violent! Holy crap. It'll be interesting to see what Dark Horse does. P.S. Yeah, I'm a little behind the times but I just had to react. |

Speaking of being behind the times, I just got the first Dark Horse TPB last Thursday.
The anime was my first real exposure to this series, and I have to say that after reading the first English volume that I'm actually a little disappointed at the way the anime version was written and directed. Specifically, well, there's much more to the story than the anime covers (at least at first). Tsurumaru has mentioned this before, but early appearances of various characters and Shadow Dragons were cut out of the anime or changed, and the manga just works better for me all around. I loved how... Spoiler:
