I do too! I've been playing it for years! However, this manga was very bad. It was written like a 13-year-old's fan fiction. I do not recommend seeking this manga out.

I will heed that advice!

Currently, I'm finishing up Life Lessons from a Martial Arts Master.  It's written by Mastery Corey Lewis, who is a master in the organization I'm in.  He was a judge at our recent testing.

I'm currently finishing up Rythym of War by Brandon Sanderson.  It's a re-read prior to the release of Wind and Truth this coming weekend.  This wraps up the first half of his ten-book Stormlight Archive series.  Given that he has already killed off one semi-main character (in book 4), I'm half-dreading who he is going to kill off in book 5.  In his Mistborn series, he actually killed off both main protagonists at the end of the first trilogy.  Mind you, he didn't kill them off randomly; he did it with a purpose.  But dammit, by that time you were invested in those characters, and it hurt.

you have just reminded me that i need to get back to these! I stopped part way through Oathbringer for no particular reason and didn't get around to picking it up again!

 

Currently i am reading through the latest Raymond Feist novel. I recently read the Firemane saga and was pleasantly surprised by them ( a lot better than the final riftwar books which seemed a bit phoned in to me). Latest one has started ok so far.

I've been in a reading slump. However, I just picked up Annihilation by Jeff VanderMeer. It's novella length, so hopefully that will help reignite my reading habit.

I actually put reading this off so that I can read Lord of the Rings The Fellowship of the Ring again. I recently rewatched the movie trilogy and just saw the new LOTR Movie, The War of the Rohirrim. It was a fun movie, if a little flat. It inspired me to jump back into a reread of the series.
