Oh goody! I've been curious about this for awhile... what is the difference between the green Daitenzin book and the other one you bought? The green one is the complete collection and the other one is only some of the chapters, right?

Duomaxwe

I'm not exactly sure, naturally I can't speak Japanese, but yes the green one is a larger book, which begins the same way as the other one, I'm not sure if it contains the entire story Rikdo wrote, or if there's more before or after what's in the green book though.

Duomaxwe

and I meant to say yes, the contents of the blue book are entirely shown at the beginning of the green book, and then it continues on.

I'm pretty sure there's more to the story than what is in the book, but you probably know better than I do.

Duomaxwe

I'll upload something for you.

Good shit man! Need to actually get me a copy of Daitenzin sometime. Also, dat background music. :im_nabeshin:

Duomaxwe

I probably should've held my phone the other way around, I forgot it would come out like that.

It might look like there's a lot of sex in it, and there is lol but there's a proper story going on too, I just can't read it sadly.

Foggle

Yeah, if you cut out the sex scenes (which I personally don't care about), it's basically a "grittier" version of Excel Saga from the Daitenzin's POV.

Duomaxwe

I assume Rikdo drew more than what is within my magazine, I imagine it's nearly impossible to obtain though.

I also really want the Young King Ours with the final chapter, and also the final volume.

And any other specials he did.

Picked that up awhile back! $21 for a $7 magazine... totally worth it. :il_hahaha: Don't think you can get it anymore, though.
As for volume 27, have fun! :elhail:

Duomaxwe

I know in theory I can buy it off a Japanese site, but Amazon try to rape you on postage, what's HMV like?

I wouldn't pay something which is obviously not the right price for it out of principal lol

and can you show pictures of how the YKO ending is different from the manga?

Foggle

The shipping is fairly pricy if I recall... Not as bad as Amazon's, though.

I would post pictures for you, but unfortunately I do not have a scanner or good quality camera. (I also kind of don't want to look at it until volume 27 comes out in English... would prefer to not be spoiled). I'm sure someone else on this board has the magazine and can send some pics your way, though.

Duomaxwe

You mean you have it but haven't looked at it?  :lordilsmile:

You'll be waiting 4 years for it to come out in English? lol
