No :( I guess it's good to end a series while it's going strong instead of dragging it out, but that's still bad news. Then again "a few more volumes" is kinda vague... |

I think I've read somewhere that it will end after 3 more volumes. There are currently 3 volumes already out iirc so 6 volumes total maybe. |
| Welcome back Ahiru no Sora! :) Scanlation gotta increase their pace. See ya Koe no Katachi. Cool to see 4 Gintama characters in the top 10 list, Gin-san, Hijikata Toshiro, Okita Sougo, and Takasugi Shinsuke, the number of sadists lol. |

Like, the foundation of knowledge you'd need to impart to this person before you could even begin to drag them out of their sinkhole of ignorance would cost thousands of dollars, if it were coming from a University?" -MAL in a nutshell. |

As a female otaku myself my picks from this list would be: Hajime Saitou and Harada Sanosuke (I mean chile please, who in their right mind would not want to date any of the Shinsengumi guys from Hakuouki?? Hot, strong, honorouble, loyal and sexy?? Uuuum of course!!lol Saitou would be my number one choice. He seemed like the kind to love intensely!lol Sanosuke was funny warm and sweet. I'd totally date him too. Its great seeing the Gintama guys doing great here! I was so surprised to see Gin as number one! I burst out laughing!! He would be such a fun boyfriend to have that is if he loved you in the first palce of course. Otherwise you'd just be following him around the way Ayame does.hahaha Makoto chan!! Who in the world wouldn't date Makoto Tachibana!!! Sexy, sweet as pie and absolutely adorable!! Of course!! |
