News Peacemaker's Chrono Creates Paka Run Horse-Racing Manga
posted on 2008-03-05 16:16 EST
Mag Garden's Monthly Comic Blade magazine announced that Peace Maker creator Nanae Chrono and newcomer Kōshō Nakabayashi will start a manga called Paka Run in the magazine's May issue (on sale on March 29). The magazine describes the story as the "first horse-racing battle" manga in which a young girl takes on the sport (comparisons to the National Velvet novel and film aside). Nakabayashi will do the actual drawing for the manga, as Chrono is still drawing the ongoing Vassalord. manga in Monthly Comic Blade Avarus magazine. Tokyopop is releasing Chrono's Peace Maker manga in North America, and A.D. Vision released the Peace Maker television anime series and part of Peace Maker's follow-up manga, Peace Maker Kurogane.

There's plenty of visual flourish to keep fans interested, with over-
There is but one volume remaining to Ouran High School Host Club, and it has been a fun ride. While this book doesn't quite live up the earlier ones in terms of pure, lighthearted enjoyment, it is still solidly entertaining.
Cage of Eden has all of the elements of a classic survival epic – monsters, diseases, an unfriendly wilderness with no perceived escape, and our own ability as humans to lie. While it can be laid on a bit thick at times, and the fanservice or treatment of the adult female characters may be objectionable to some, Yamada's story is an engrossing one.
Nothing here shakes up the series the way parts of the last volume did, but it's consummate entertainment nonetheless: slick and effortlessly propulsive, yet still respectful of its audience and characters.
This concise and well-
I daresay anyone turned off by the first five episodes might want to consider slogging through the next 3 volumes or so; the relatively meaty and fun storyline seems like it might be worth the wait.
