Title: Pokémon Special
Post by: Edofenrir on June 03, 2010, 08:00:40 AM: Is there anyone here who reads the Manga adaption of the Pokémon franchise?
And if so, what do you think about it?

...just asking out of curiousity.

I really like the original arc of Adventures. I'm hoping for rest of GS arc and beyond to get US releases.

Post by: Zesty Cactus on November 14, 2010, 06:41:01 PM: I love Pokémon Adventures, as cliche as it is to say this, it really is one of my favourite Pokémon mangas. Everything I've read is just quality. (I'm following the VIZ releases - up to vol 9 right now)

Post by: Gambler on November 27, 2010, 03:27:02 AM: I used to, I have the first 6 books of the Viz translation. However I hated Viz when they decided to release Vol. 30 as a whole new and different serie, ruins my collection. I dropped it there. Pretty good actually, to bad that Viz makes the worst decisions with their licences. >:(

also, late but: i kinda hate it when people call Adventures "the" manga adaptation. there's more than one and Adventures isn't any more official than the others, just more popular. (and got an endorsement from Tajiri TEN YEARS ago)

As I said, ruins my collection. I'm thinking of buying the original Japanese anyway.

Post by: tacopill on February 10, 2013, 09:10:10 PM: I am sorry, but I am not sure contributing to a Pokémon manga-related thread when you don't read the Pokémon manga is going to help you in anyway.
