Kannagi Manga Discussion

Has there been any statement when the manga will be back?

[Vexx]

Last official statement was basically "when the author recovers sufficiently from her illness".

[Used Can]

I wonder if this is a Togashi type of illness. Let us hope not.

this is probably one of the meanest , yet most hilarious comment I've read in a while .

[Vexx]

It also tells me he didn't browse the thread a page or two back..... since she was in the hospital and had surgery.... but I was just going to let it sit there.

[Used Can]

No no, I do know she had a surgery. I'm just hoping the manga won't remain on a year-long hiatus with constant breaks.

[Vexx]

Oh!!!! (laugh) you've no idea how much that just improved your meter

[iidingoii]

k, Im truly confused

Spoiler for kannagi:

just finished reading chapter 36, and I don't get where this "nagi is a slut, someone popped her cherry already crap" comes from, no where to be found, kinda makes sense tho how ozuma's remains where the impurities they were chasing but the whole slut/impure otaku rage makes no sense whatsoever .

I think she was getting tainted cause she was touching ozuma, not because there was old semen inside of her, just a thought

[Used Can]

For the nth time, the whole deal about Nagi's purity was mere trolling.

Ok well just how far has the kannagi manga been translated into english by scantalators? Up to what chapter so far?

hi there !

sorry to stir this topic up but i'm really confused by this series and after searching the net i found this topic to be the most extensive and informative of all regarding kannagi. i also like what a few people said earlier a lot.

after watching the anime (without reading the manga) i was sad that a lot of things remained unclear for me afterwards. so i stumbled across the anime and started to read it and realised that everything past the 17 chapter wasn't told in the anime which got me very excited.

so i started reading and finished a few days ago on chapter 33 being the last chapter translated i could find. i was sure that the next would be released some time soon. but then i read about the whole "2nd-hand affair" and stumbled across chapter 36 translated (which of course confused me even more) and there my knowledge stops.

so my questions are:
- what happened to chapter 34 and 35. i guess they were released because some of the pictures posted seem unfamiliar for me. but is there any translation for them ? google isn't helping out in fact (i know posting dircet links is prohibited here but maybe someone could give me a hint)
- is chapter 36 the last one released before the "illness" of the writer ? or was there anything else.

i'm sorry if these things were explained or answered sometime ago - i read this whole topic and a few other and couldn't find any info about it.

thanks in advance

oh and regarding the story and the "affair" (i hope this is not tl; dr already):

Spoiler for spoiler:

imo in the body of nagi there are a low-level spirit and a god. the god has fallen in love and has gotten impure (ozuma being created from impurities is the proof). now i'm not sure if the god has really amnesia or was embarrassed about her loving ozuma or was punished by other gods (as long as this is possible in shinto/buddhism), anyways she is now in the body of nagi together with the low-level spirit. that spirit thinks of itself as a god of course and kills impurities. it's logical because the god cannot do it because she would kill a part of ozuma this way. zange knowing that all collects the impurities and creates ozuma again to force the god in nagi show her true self and start to remember who she really is.

maybe i'm wrong but what i'm driving at is that i'm positive that the cynical spirit nagi has feelings for jin and is absolutely pure and only the god also in her is filthy. so the otakus did overreact imo. nagi does in fact say earlier "i have someone i like" but this wasn't nagi the spirit but nagi the god.

the story has imo still a lot potential to get jin and nagi together. i would say that jin will exorcise the filthy god out of nagis body and leave the low-level spirit in her and it will be a quite happy end.

a bit off-topic: the otakus overreacted, yes but a lot of people saying this is typical for japanese people is a tad unfair. even in europe actors have been stalked after doing something in a tv-series and the fans lost track if it was real or fictious.

So... August already...

Somebody knows if the author is recovering from whatever illness she had?

[Vexx]

No idea and no news I've spotted.... (sigh). Its too bad - I don't wonder if propositions of a second anime series are on hold til the manga is finished.

I hope this gets continued after the artist is better, Im really anxious to see what happens with Nagi's true identity. Honestly I think I'll be really disappointed though if it turns out shes not really a god, but its starting to get too convoluted with every little thing about Nagi contradicting eachother.

I would have to agree though that Nagi's corruption is definitly due to her making physical contact with her "supposed former crush". After all, Nagi gets injured when she touches impurities, and Zange said that she recreated his body using the impurities she captured (hence why I think she was so adamant about making sure the two never meet). And I think that it was his body that was in the coffin that the impurities were crawling out of.

The thing that doesnt make sense then is that if Zange knew what would happen if the two met, why did she bother creating this defiled form anyways. I mean I know Zange doesnt really care for Nagi, but Ive never seen anything that makes me think that she'd deliberately try to kill Nagi.

Regardless Im really hoping that Nagi doesnt have split personalities (in the same sense that Zange does). I'm figuring that if Zange had to recreate this guys body, that something must have happened long ago and his form was destroyed. Nagi might have felt guilty about it (in the sense that she couldnt do anything about it) and talked herself in a circle so much that she ended up repressing her divine powers due to her not being as powerful as she hoped. Still that doesn't explain the infamous "interview chapter" where Nagi goes all slutty. I just find it hard to believe that a god would act in such a discraceful manner. It also doesn't explain her supposed amnesia, but I suppose if you compare my analysis to a standard trauma patient, she could have deliberately tried to forget the painful past that she had with this guy, hence her "amnesia".

Needless to say Nagi-sama just has to be a god.

Arg. Last night I read chapters 20 through 36 of this. I suppose I should have started at the beginning, but I was linked there through another site and originally I didn't intend to keep reading beyond the initial page. Anyway. Chapter 36 ends on such a powerful cliffhanger, I can't stand it! If I'd realized something like that was going to be the last chapter for months or years or forever, I wouldn't have started reading the manga in the first place. Now it's going to drive me insane, praying that there's some way they can save her.
