Last Hope and Amazing Agent Luna

Postby Pepper Kittie » Mon Jul 25, 2005 12:34 pm

I was wondering... has anyone read these mangas? They're both pretty new I think, from the company Seven Seas. I bought Last Hope and I've been reading AAL on the Seven Seas website, but I was wondering if anyone else had an opinion on either of them, or if they wanted to know more about Last Hope. The art in both is absolutely beautiful ^_____^

i started luna yesterday.the villan lacks depth if you want bad guys with depth but other than that i like it.in my opinion the writers portrayed highschool fairly acuratly. its a pretty funny manga.

I just read Last Hope a couple weeks ago and I loved it. I hope Seven Seas sticks around a bit. I was going to buy Captian Nemo ... but it looked a little too fanservicey and not enough interesting-ey. Yeah, so big Last Hope fan here!

I've seen Luna at the bookstore, and I've contemplated looking into it, but I've never been able to find out anything about the content. How is it in that regard?

Well, I've only read the first two volumes of AAL (the third is out... I want it but I'm broke T.T) but what I've read so far I think is really great. Since it's about a girl learning about High School there's some drama and crazy things like that, like crushes and dating and jelousy, but throughout Luna tries to remain optimistic and do her best. It's not that deep of a storyline in my opinion... it seems pretty laid back, actually. But it's cute and I like the characters a lot already ^__^ A very sweet story so far. Though I'm still questioning why it has a "teen" rating to it. So far it's been like an "all ages" manga. I'm curious to know if it will change somehow.

Gypsy: Yeah, that story seemed interesting until I looked through it at the store. Fanservice makes me sad -.- But Last Hope is fun! The next book is supposed to come out this summer too, it's been a while! Seven Seas just keeps on getting more and more manga, it's fun to watch. I'm looking forward to Inverloch ^^

I just bought all three of AAL and Last Hope around a week ago and really like them all. It's nice though, because they're not Japanese writers, so they don't have a lot of inapropriate things in them. And they're really good at it too! I was very impressed! It's hard to find rated Teen mangas without a bunch of junk inside them. The thing that makes AAL rated T I know is because of the language, as well as Last Hope too. There's violence and one kind of inapropriate part in Last Hope. But other then that they're both really clean.

I like Oliver in AAL. XD He's so cute!

I've read both...Though I liked Last Hope a lot more than I like AAL. The art for both is way average for American manga's and Last Hope makes me happy that there are good american manga's other than Megatokyo.
