    Manga: Kekkaishi

    Anyone here following the manga, especially those watching the anime? The story has gotten quite good as of late.

    For those of you haven't been reading or watching it, this is a series that you should surely check out, if you like shounen. Story starts slow and maybe a bit boring, but it really picks up so you get rewarded for keeping with it.

    For those of you that are up to date with the fansubs, you should start reading from about volume 11 and on (chapters 96-105). There may be some slight changes, but nothing earth shattering.

    You should be able to download up to volume 11 from here:
    http://www.urakai.com/index.php?cate...13_sectionid=5

    The rest you can get from Minna-Scan and Franky-House (chapters 106+), you'll have to browse their forums for them:
    http://minna-scan.net/forums/index.php
    http://www.franky-house.com/forums/f...splay.php?f=33

    Latest chapter released was 114 by Franky-House. Releases have been very frequent so if you decide to start reading, you should get a new chapter rather quickly.

    Yoshimori Sumimura is a young Kekkaishi (barrier-master) who tries to rid the area of Karasumori of Ayakashi (demons); and it just so happens that this area is in the exact location where he goes to school now. Joining him in the purification of Karasumori is his childhood-friend (and secret crush) Tokine, who is the descendant of the Sumimuras' rival family.

    Anyways, volume 12 and chapter 114 have been really good, so go check them out.

    Well... I just caught up to chapter 144, I had stopped reading for a month or so. I thought the Kokuborou arc had a cool ending, though I'm not up-to-date with the anime currently so I don't know how it was handled there. The old dude that had faked his own death was pretty cool kicking the insect-dude's ass.

    After that, I thought that the next couple of arcs were a bit weak... and that's probably why I took a break from it, but the latest current one has been great. We're seeing a ton of development from Karasumori and Yoshimori getting stronger... I wonder what will happen with Kurokabuto picking a fight against Karasumori.

    Still up-to-date, Death13a?

    Yes i am. Anime have last episode to be subbed; 51 was just released. And Yoshimori's zekkai heals ayakashi. It healed the one stabbed in eye and granted death to Kaguro. Just like Karasumori.

    Edit: well from ep52 it was fox that healed Bakuyo but Kaguro died same way as those who wishes for death in Karasumori.

    It also looked like Zekkai was absorbing something.

    Anime ends at around chapter 120.

    Yeah, I noticed... that's why I pointed it out since you would've missed it because the thread wouldn't have shown a new post.

    Anyways, do tell when you catch up.

    Well, I had stopped reading because groups had started to skip chapters and shit, and it pissed me off. So decided to catch back up, and man these groups have released a shitload of chapters... up to 256 at the moment. Took quite some effort to catch-up.

    Any of you still reading? I think the series has been quite solid, and Masamori is quite an interesting character, so I like that they've spent quite some time developing him.

    Anyways, Karasumori might just be experiencing its greatest threat yet at the moment, and Yoshimori is on the verge of becoming quite a powerhouse.

    I wish 258 had a better raw, couldn't tell shit about the photograph at the end. Can I assume you're reading this series Abdula? Or am I still the only jackass talking to myself here?

    More than just reading it, I love this series. I even watched the anime.

    Yoshimori has really been annoying in recent chapters though. He is not acting like himself at all particularly in 259, hopefully he's gonna stop whining now and take some action. Or maybe he'll just watch Hiura get himself killed like he did with Gen. Either way, I'll be happy.

    I really want to see the results of his training though, but if he can't get Hiura and the safety of everyone else off his mind he probably won't be able to use Musou.

    I agree, I don't know what's wrong with Yoshimori and why he's suddenly so scared and acting like a coward. This was never him, and especially not now after he should've had a massive level-up. It really makes no sense why he's hesitating so much at the moment.

    In order to reach higher levels of power he needs to blank out his mind. All that does is remind him of Souji and his alleged mass murders.

    I just finished the anime yesterday.... I really liked it. I must read the manga now. I wonder if a new season will come. But wow, the manga atm is over 100 chapters from where the anime left off. Guess I'm in the same boat as animus with something good to read.

    I really love this series but after reading it one chapter at a time over the last 2+ months I just feel liked I'm being constantly teased and it's never going to stop
