Welcome to Gaia! ::

;_; They'd better be because "spring" is just about over in the technical sense and that's when the last Perfect World claimed it would be out. I was just coming to scramble about that because I was uber worried that I missed the next volume, and since I'm desperate to get my hands on just about anything Genbu Kaiden, not to have one of the Perfect World volumes would make me cry.

Fayie:: Rimudo's age is still up for conjecture as far as I'm concerned. I know that Takiko is for sure 17, I would think he would be about the same age if not older. He certainly doesn't look like other 15-16 year olds Watase-sensei has drawn, so I have a hard time believing he's younger. And I also prefer him not to be jailbait XD

Let me also welcome you onboard the Genbu fanbus ^^ I've come to love Genbu Kaiden more than the SuSei arc for much of the same reasons as you did. I'm 21 years old now, and there has to be a lot more substance for me to really fall in love with something now than there needed to be when I was 14-15. Takiko reminds me in some ways of myself and I relate to her way more than I ever could Miaka. I'm always more interested in the more mature characters who still have understandable faults. And the Tamahome/Miaka thing got waaaaay old. Its fun to have this be so new and telling people about it. I'm hoping that it gets animated so more people will show interest. 'Cus let's face it, most people don't pay anything attention till it's animated.

I only got volume 1 now but now I got a volume of every serie of Yuu Watase. I'm so proud whee
But it's very difficult to get the series here especially Genbu kaiden and AB. How many volumes are out of Genbu kaiden? They say only 3 have been translated.

Oh?
I could have sworn it was two chapters are released every 4 months. I could be wrong though.
Still we havent had an update in almost 9 months gonk .
I gotta know what happens ;-;
*Goes to check status*
Still nothing it looks like.

Two months, four months, sometimes three months. Who cares? It's inconsistent as far as I've seen anyway x_x All that matters is it comes out. And soon I hope ;_; This has dragged on way too long.

You know, this is why we anime fans are huge pirates. It's because they don't have the decency to translate or update fast enough!

(I wouldn't have downloaded half the stuff I did if they would only bring it to the US or make it available on region 1 about 2 years sooner...)

The slow releases get to me when they do works that come out in Shojo or Shonen Beat/Jump first. It takes them 4 months to translate when Japan is already close to being finished with or already finished with the series.
I the only translation complaint I have is that they change names, which is pretty annoying. I cant stand calling Rimudo "Limdo" while I read. I have to have this mental thing going that every time I see "Limdo" I've learned automatically to say "Rimudo." But still. Also (and I find this with Viz and Tokyopop) I think they should get better editors. I've found weird spelling mistakes before, and its pretty annoying.

It says in the 3rd volume under Yu Watase's little chat section that he is 16.

If you read that in the English version then I'm gonna have to discount it >_> I discount anything in regards to Viz. I have volume three in Japanese and I'll go check on that later. Because with the era changes there could be a change there that Viz never quite got in the translation. I need scanned proof to believe darnit XD

The series is going to have to be longer than six volumes, five are already out in Japanese and she still has a bit more ground to cover. I honestly hope it doesn't drag any longer than 10 volumes personally. But however long it is I will continue to follow it because I have the patience and I love this series that much ^^
