Just came back from lunch. For those looking for slightly cheaper manga in the downtown area drop by Gameshack in the Atrium. Most that sell at $14.99 (Love Hina, Negima, Naruto, etc) are $11.99 there. Not the biggest selection unfortunately. :confused:

You should check out Hairy Tarantula on Yonge st too. Its quite hard to find so you'll have to look for the proper address:

354 Yonge St
Toronto, ON, M5B 1S5

Telephone:
(416) 596-8002

They are selling their manga at US cover price in Canadian dollars. So that means if its listed at $9.99 US, you will pay $9.99 CAD for it. They have a huge selection of anime in there. They're located in a second level so when you're looking for the store, look for a stairway instead of a storefront. :D
This space for rent.

Been there quite often. Dingy little place. Haven't been in a while so didn't know about the US cover bit. I let my membership lapse and thought that was the only way. Thanks for the tip. :cheesygri

Realistically, they will do the anime up to chapter 238, and maybe 239-244 to fill in Kakashi Gaiden, and then most likely the series will end or put on hold indefinately.

Or worse, they will make up a whole new arc ala Kenshin's 3rd arc
It's quite surprising how fast the anime has caught up to the manga so they might put the anime on hold but 26 weeks would be a terrible marketing mistake.

As for Naruto 245 - it was expected but great! Can't wait until 246 comes out!

It'll definitely work on Kakashi - he's perverted too and it's evident by the book he reads! :D ... and maybe Sakura can grow her body to the form of Tsunade! so sexy! :cheesygri

I really like it..the series has very good animation, plus it's got an ethereal feel to the whole series, kind of like o-twins. It's got some very interesting characters/mascots, plus the cuuuuutest little dog called potato....awww Image

and geez, what's with all this sakura/tsunade talk? lol....me and my friend kept thinking about how wrong it is to portray Sakura like that (like in the ED6 video) considering that she's only 14 years old. As for tsunade obaachan....she's just old....so very old.

as for Tsunade damn she maybe be old but shes sooo fine... and yes its unfortuante that we see her genjutsu.... hmmm i wonder is Jiraiya the only one that can see thru her genjutsu?

*recalls ED6*... not just Sakura but all the important genin's girls was wrong to be portrayed in such a manner ... Sakura's new costume in the manga is not bad... i hope Sakura doesnt end up having Tsunade's package...

on a nother note did u guys c ep 120 yet?.... its out and released by Dattebayo

so far i'm really enjoying Air. Love the OP. The story does indeed have that ethereal feel to it..which could mean it ends spectacularly or it crash and burns. the animation is quite well done (the backgrounds are just gorgeous).

Dattebayo's release is good.... i find it better than Anbu coz they dont change much of the dialogue (i.e substituting technique for jutsu)

Yeah... I loved it! I wish I understood what they were saying though.

(spoiler warning =minor)
One thing I noticed is that it appears that after 245 <a href=../autolink/redirectpage.php?linkid=32 target=_blank>chapters</a>, Sakura might actually be able to do something other then cower and get beaten up.

Yeah seriously.....that was.......unexpected :cheesygri

[er...semi-spoiler]Sakura's pretty much turning into a younger/cuter Tsunade obaachan....while it's nice to see, it wasn't exactly unexpected, I mean anyone could've seen it coming from comparing the two teams[/spoiler]

MT on narutochuushin.com did a rough translation ahead of Inane...pertty good if I might say so myself.
