I'm 26 now and I enjoy various other things outside of anime and cosplay; some which include art and writing as well as "old-school" text-based roleplay (multi-paragraphs which were more common during yahoo's roleplay golden age haha). </p> <p>In any case I'm looking forward to meeting new people! </p> http://bayanime.com/forums/topic/manga#post-1188 Fri, 26 Jun 2009 14:23:32 +0000 bijinkei 1188@http://bayanime.com/forums/ <p>i really need to sell my manga (it's taking up too much space). prices may be negotiable (depends on which ones). they will only be sold as a set. contact for pictures.</p> <p>fushigi yugi volumes 1-15 - $50<br /> rave master volumes 1-8 - $25<br /> saiyuki volumes 1-9 + saiyuki reload volume 1 - $35<br /> naruto volumes 1-4 - $10<br /> dragon knights volumes 1-12 - $40<br /> excel saga volumes 1-3 - $8<br /> fruits basket volumes 1-12 - $55<br /> kare first love volumes 1-7 - $25<br /> super gals volumes 1-5 - $18<br /> mink volumes 1-6 (complete) - $20<br /> dream saga volumes 1-5 (complete) - $18 </p> http://bayanime.com/forums/topic/wtb-battle-angel-alita-manga#post-406 Sun, 25 Jan 2009 19:45:48 +0000 Ann 406@http://bayanime.com/forums/ <p>Looking for the English language original series of the Battle Angel Alita manga... anyone have it?
