How's that a "spoiler" when spoiler[Aizen went to Hueco Mundo to create Arrancar about 2 years ago?] I have volume 29 on order and it should be arriving within the next few days along with the Bleach 5th anniversary book.

"Great" and edited don't EVER go in the same sentence.

I'm glad to see it's doing good, but, I don't mean to beat a dead horse, I just wish it wasn't going to the magazine! If anything, the strong sales should encourage Viz to keep it at a bimonthly rate and well ahead of the anime.

Lord, not this again Rolling Eyes
Some people aren't up to date with the Japanese release or even with the US release, people just go at their own pace. Not being up to date doesn't make them any less of a fan or a person(which you seem to think). But who am I to say such things, I am but a mortal, and you of course are the god of all Bleach fandom Rolling Eyes

My point is that if you don't read edited manga you'd have known the above and you'd know the simple stuff likespoiler[ Isshin Kurosaki is a Shinigami Uryu's dad comes and that Keigo has a sister.]

I'm not attacking YOU, I'm mad at those who support edited manga and buy it,causing Viz to think they can keep getting away with this crap. I want to help you people know the real Bleach and not a hacked up dumbed down edit fest of ignorance.

What the hell? Why do you assume Viz is out to get you? It is entirely possible that Viz actually likes Bleach and wants US readers to enjoy it. And for the record, Viz can "get away with this crap" because they got permission from the manga-ka himself to do it. If he is likes the US version, then why should you get so offended?

He's on the extreme side, but I also disagree with editing in principle. IIRC, it's basically that edits can be made to a manga and the manga-ka can't do a thing about it because they don't really have control. The contract that VIZ holds from Shueisha probably guarantees an "auto-approval" and the manga-ka is notified, if it even occurs, in a kind of format you'd expect from an email receipt from Amazon.

Kind of like how most manga-ka have no control over how the anime adaptation of their work is going to turn out.

What? You can't call it "edited" just because Viz's releases simply haven't reached that point in the story yet. Unless Viz has actually altered that bit of the story, it's not editing. Drop it.

The volumes that contain visual edits say so in the front flap, meaning that Viz edit manga. Remember how Toriyama sued Viz for editing Dragonball years ago? What about how Viz have Son Goku Say "Hey Bro,Whazzup?" on the first page of volume 1? That, my good pal, is westernized to the Nth degree. Eyeshield 21 is visually edited beyond belief. I know sense I own the REAL thing.

Drop that 26 episode character on your avatar and find one with some actual depth that's not (warning 26 episode like plot) a space eskimo on the Marmalade land who grows vegetables with his friend Samurai Astronaut Yuki whose parents were kidnapped by space cows from another dimension on a Saturday afternoon in the 40 10th century last June.

The internet is THE medium for know-it-all geeks with uncontrollable mouths to spout off. Unfortunately, I don't think this thread will help. Shut-in twits with no one around to praise their pointless tombs of knowledge will always be a thorn in the side of the net. Again, it's a great medium for them. Where else do they have a captive audience that can't physically bitchslap some common sense and manners into them?

"Geek"
Not only a stereotype but directed towards me who's anything but. -1 point

"Uncontollable mouth"
Funny I TYPED what you read -10 points

"Shut-in Twi#s"
Another stereotype and COMPLETLY WRONG at that- -20 points

"female dog slap"
Ah yes, a lack of vocabulary that left you with nothing to use but uneducated caveman talk,a loss of self control and mad at how I attacked 26 episode series and the depth they don't have. -100 points

You'd better think this "Mod" thing over again since you kinda suck at it and stereotype fans.

Try again......

Sad thing is there wasn't even anything to edit.

Import and find script translations.

That may be true, but the manga-ka can still say something if they don't like the edits. That is why we have unedited Negima here.

They include that message in a lot of their manga that don't have edits and don't always have it in the ones that do. Because of the way its worded, it could easily just refer to the changes to some of the text outside of text bubbles that may need to be changed and might slightly alter which exact bits of clothing and whatnot are being covered up.

And what does this have to do with what BrothersElric said?

I've never heard of Toriyama suing Viz. He insisted that it be released unflipped, but he didn't seem to care about the various edits they've done to it.

Seriously, what is up with your anti-26 episode crap? It's absolutely absurd. Then you complain about silly plots with One Piece in your screen name. You know, that show about a guy who wants to be the pirate king and he's made up rubber (or has the attributes of rubber, at least).

Oh God, the irony here is overwhelming. Rolling Eyes

Yay for vocal authors! It's all too bad that not many have the liberty to do so for various reasons. Anyhoo, my memory's fuzzy but I thought it was more the fans that threw the fit about it?

Just out of curiosity, where in NC do you reside?
