HI all,

Thanks for the uploads. I have all of No.5 now, and also most of his work.

Does anyone have the titles “100″ and “101″ released in 1999 by Matsumoto Taiyou?

I just saw this on eBay:

Does anyone have the scans?

Thanks

Well there’s not much to do about Toyokazu though. Only 2 of his works, Ryuguden and Bakune Young, are available online. Moreover, other than those two, there’s only Angel Mark. It’s a shame he isn’t a more prolific mangaka. Both him and Kato Shinkichi. I wish they drew more manga…

This is great! I bought alot of these in japanese, but because of his unique writing style, they were really hard to read. Glad to see some translations online.
@Hox
Bakune Young is the best! And Ryuguden too. Is there a Toyokazu Matsunaga thread yet?

HOLY I love you guys for compiling this!
I’m a huge fan of him, starting from Black&White to Ping Pong Club. Thanks you so much, I haven’t read some of these too :)

@Alucard Noir

Hmm, I see. As for me, I personally have a little bias towards more realistic artstyles found in manga by Taniguchi Jiro, Ikegami Ryoichi, or even Urasawa Naoki. Drawing things “realistically” makes things seem a little mundane for me, it makes it hard for me to quite grasp the author’s creativity (if he has one) from each page. Of course there are exceptions, like in Berserk and Steel Ball Run, but that’s only because the mundaneness of realism is offset by the fantastical elements of their respective universes. This is why I love the art in manga like Takemitsu Zamurai, Legend of the Strongest Man Kurosawa, or Bakune Young but I’m less keen on the art in Glaucos or Dragon Head. Well, that’s enough from me.

@AlucardNoir:
“P.S. First person to comment on Blame, Hellsing and Blue Heaven is dead!”

What do you mean? Do you hate any of those mangas by any chance? ;)

PS: Why did you mention Hellsing anyway?

@Archer: Bakabt has quite a big Nihei torrent, so it might help to refer to that in your collection of Nihei for a post.
