i bought an issue of shonen weekly sunday from this past summer, and theres a comic whose title i cant read that looks interesting. all i can say is that one of the characters was a kid who wore a hat that looked like a tomato, and theres an older guy(teenager?) with spiky hair and a long white coat(like a lab technician). the comic appeard to be a comedy, but with some fighting.

It hasn't (to my knowledge) been published outside Japan. Discommunication is a "forerunner" of sorts to the more-successful Yume Tsukai by Ueshiba Riichi.

I personally found Discommunication unsatisfying, but the subsequent series is much more interesting. Yume Tsukai has also been made into a fairly OK anime.

It sounds like Ogasawara Shin's Anifunjatta!.

I was wondering if this is part of the gravitation series [12.volumes]> I don't think so, beacause I've read a couple of volumes [11&1] but I'm not sure if this is included in the story,it's pretty funny Very Happy .I saw the anime though. If anyone replies, Thanks in advance. Anime catgrin EDIT***just found out, links like these are forbidden. Sorry.

The link doesn't work for me. Do you have a different link? I'm a huge Gravitation fan, and I could probably help you if I see it.

Normally I just lurk through these forums looking to pick up on a good series or two, but Otakon has demanded that I raise my post count another point. I think I might just break 5 by the end of the year. But anyways, people I know over the web keep sending me pictures of this guy (http://img250.imageshack.us/img250/6268/1170041268350ef4.jpg) saying I should make a costume for good ol' Ota07. The only problem is, none of them know exactly what series he's from, and I don't want to get into something I know nothing about.. The quality looks fairly succinct with manga promo art, so I've come to you, ANN manga forum monkeys. Give me an excuse to buy a bowler hat.

You need to do some adjustments so the link works. Just take the parenthesis out.

That's the continuation of Gravitation that started about a year or so ago (I think) in Japan. There hasn't been any word about whether or not this will be brought over in English, but it IS part of the Gravitation series.

Oops Embarassed

Yes, you're right, TokyoPop is bringing it out next month. Now that I think about it, I do vaguely remember reading that.

So yeah, that's what it is that you've found. This also of course means that those links are to illegal scanlations.

You're welcome.

I wouldn't worry about it, since you got rid of them as soon as you realized what they were. Hope you enjoy the series when it comes out!
