Actually, Alunnisage, that's not a bad idea. I've thought about that before. I'll look into it later.
Do you have the artbooks, by chance?
What manga are you reading?

I love shoujo manga so when I had money I was collecting the following:
Hot Gimmick, Kare First Love, Hana Kimi, Peach Girl, Mars, Hana Yori Dango, Fruits Basket, Girl Got Game, Red River, Marmalade Boy, Neck and Neck, Chrno Crusade, and Tokyo Boys and Girls.
What I can't WAIT to get my hands on though is the manga for one of the most popular stories and animes in Japan (or so I hear) called "Monster" New Line Cinema has picked up the rights for a movie, how far they are in production I'm not sure. But if you like psychological thrillers, I think you'll definitely be interested in Monster.
I also intend on collecting Berserk and a few other titles once I've been employed again for a while... but that's a while from now. Thankfully christmas will be rollin' around soon haha

Binged and both the last four volumes of Saint Tail. The manga is sadly going out of print and it's the only manga in the magic girl subgenre that I ever enjoyed enough to pick up. It was one of Tokyopop's early releases though, so it's printed flipped with retouched artwork/sound effects. Since that's no longer popular and this isn't an uber popular series, I have a feeling that may have contributed to it going out of print, which is too bad.
Personally I don't see what the big deal is about not translating sound effects. I can only read about five or six effects, but I imagine that's more than the average non-Japanese speaker can read and I like knowing what kind of emote or effect is supposed to be playing.
