Star Wars: ROTS

Will bought me the Star Wars Episode III dvd on Tuesday. All I wanted to see were the deleted scenes. I was very disappointed to discover that there are only 5 included on the disc! I know there were more scenes cut than 5 :grumpy: I was really looking forward to the scene where Obi-Wan visits Padme the first time (the cut one, not the one included in the original film). If I weren’t having a terrible semester, I’d take a day off from class and watch Episodes I-VI :lol:

I am now a proud owner of all 5 seasons of Sailormoon! :nod: Now, I want to save my money and buy the manga. Does anyone know where I can find the manga for a decent price? I noticed Tokyopop no longer carries them.

Sorry for the sparse blog entries. One word - school :P

    Haha, Sailor Moon! Unfortunately I don’t know where you can purchase the manga for a “decent price.” Maybe look on Amazon.com?

    Sailormoon manga? Try used stores or like the last comment, try Amazon. Try Ebay and Half.com! Why Tokyopop had to stop producing them just because of loss of some popularity. It makes me mad.

    I actually like the manga better than *any* of the anime.

    A decent price.. I paid $9.99 for each and every one of mine at Borders, so anything better than that is a great deal in my opinion. :-)

    Bubs - for BubblesSWAP, I noticed that it registers a hit whenever you check the members area yourself. I check often to see if I’ve gotten any new hits… could you fix this somehow?

    I’m not sure if it’s true, but I heard Tokyopop did not renew the manga license just like ADV not renewing SMC and SMR subs. Perhaps that is why Sailormoon is not listed in tkp’s manga listing? You can try eBay for a bargain but s&h may be a lot since there are 18 volumes. I have all of them but took me forever back in the day because graphic novels/manga weren’t that popular in bookstores. Even my comic store didn’t carry it at the time because Tokyopop and Viz were not as popular as Darkhorse’s license with Buffy and Star Wars comic books. v_v

    Imho I would get either the Japanese/Chinese/French versions because the quality is definitely better and I don’t think they screwed up their names too much (omitting Japan version of course). For example, Usagi in tkp version is renamed as Bunny NOT Serena. o_0; So when Mamo-chan says Usako in Japanese, it’s translated as Buns… that’s what I found really annoying. ALSO the SM manga were flipped reading left-to-right (Western) so Usagi’s ring finger is on her right hand. *grr* Finally ending on my rant, tkp’s SM mangas were not like how they are today, so it was hard to read them - paper quality was thick and the ink for some pages wasn’t well-done.

    But overall if you’re a big SM fan you should try to at least collect the volumes from your favourite season. I definitely enjoyed the SMC and SMR manga version along with the anime (it’s really angsty ne?) because Mamo-chan looks hawt and he’s *evil* 2x. muwahah

    I bought all the seasons (except for the last, b/c it hasn’t been released on DVD) on Amazon.Com. I paid around $35-$40 for each season… that’s a pretty good deal.
