Well, haven't had time to go out of town and be able to use up my gift card on manga... But I am SO undecided on which one to get, to help me complete my unfinished series. Also on my gift card, I can only get 2 for free (depending on what I decide on getting and the price). I will for SURE get .hack//Another Birth vol 2, I'll debate if vol. 3 is out at the time though. If From Far Away (vol 3+) is there, it'll also have to be a must, since it's SOOO hard to find in stores!

But, depending on what's there and what's not, here's the list of the ones I'm debating on, since I have yet to complete the series....

RG Veda I'm the most iffy on, because I'm still curious as to what'll happen later (still in shock that Ashura is a GUY!!! -_-)

Fruits Basket. It is absolutely my favorite manga EVER. It keeps getting better and better.

That being said, that volume of DNAngel is right when the series (in my opinion) actually starts to become a very good, quality manga, so that's certainly a recommended choice.

Still, my vote's with Fruits Basket.

I'd recommend Please Save My Earth, but that's a hard find too.
Also The Seikai Trilogy is definitely a must-read.

NO WAY am I starting another series... don't have the money, nor the time, which is why my poll was only specific to my own incomplete series.

Besides, I found the Seikai Trilogy quite jargon filled and dense.

As the Tanemura-lover on the board, I am obligated to tell you to get Full Moon #5. You're right in the thick of things there, and it just gets better! Plus it's a relatively short series (7 total) so you'd be pretty close to finishing it.

If not, Fruits Basket. DNAngel is okay, I'm still reading it, but it's not as good as Furuba to me.

Yeah, I was sort of thinking on that, because then it would just have me 2 volumes from completed it (and then onto finsihing my other series). I'll keep it in midn though^^ Once again, I'll really have to see what's in stock :/ Sometimes it can just be so grrr when you go to look, and one of the volumes on your "want" list isn't there, because someone came by and bought what appeared to be vol. 1-7ish. Had that happen a couple times and I was like "aw, man!"^^ Another thign I need to do: don't browse^^ Bad enough that I have 5 incomplete series, and although I'm always eyeing Death Note (debating on getting the manga or anime boxset when it comes out, preferably the anime since it's already the same exact thing), I just can't... v_v

What's worse is getting into a series, and then having the end of it not published! I've wanted to finish Hyper Rune (a lesser-well-known title by CLAMP) for years now and volume 4 was not released. It's one thing to have an incomplete series; it's another when you can't complete it!

Reflex had me clicking the "Full Moon" option. XD Well, that and the fact that I've not read any of the other series (save for the first three vols. of Fruits Basket), so...yep. XD
