Summary:
Serialization of the oneshot, Akuma Bengoshi Kukabara.

Mephisto Bart Kucabara is a devil lawyer. In order to return to the demon world that he was exiled from he needs to collect enough Dark Matter. To do so he creates a plan to claim the Dark Matter from the souls of sinners sentenced to hell. Prove the soul's innocence and the Dark Matter becomes his.

But how can he gather enough Dark Matter when his kind personality causes him to continually use it up in order to defend the soul from the Shinigami that has come to take them to hell?

This series is quite an interesting one. The shinigami in hell are corrupted that they had manipulated all the death of people on earth so that they will end up in hell. So, it's up to Kucabara who is the son of the Demon King, Mephisto to set thing straight.

Summary:
In the spring of Kyoko's first year in high school, Eiko, a girl like a sister to her, returns with her younger brother, Jiro.
The return isn't that big of a deal, but Jiro (self-proclaimed super mad scientist) has it in his head that he wants to operate on Kyoko! And, what's even more, the two of them are actually high ranking members of an evil organization on the run from the heroes of justice!
As if high school didn't have enough problems already, now she has to deal with these two living with her.

This story is frickin hilarious. Jiro is the mad scientist that want to modify Kyoko's body.

Plot:
Nagasawa Shiina was just your average 3rd year high schooler when her parents' company went bankrupt. In order to pay the bills, her family sells her into prostitution. At her first job, a mysterious masked man crashes the party...and it's someone she knows...

Akumetsu is the story of Hazama Shou, who defends his own view of justice in a vigilante manner while wearing a mask and calling himself Akumetsu.

This story is frickin amazing. It is about a boy who can be at many place in one time (later will be reveal on why) that kills all the unjust politicians and ministers in Japan's cabinet.

Summary:
There is a tale told in the empire, that in the year 3968--when the Empire of Szaalenden was still at war with a powerful dark enemy called Wischtech--the Emperor sent 14 champions to stop the onslaught, though not all would complete the journey. Throughout their excursion, three of the champions died and four turned on their comrades. The seven heroic men who remained, defeated and punished the traitors and accomplished their mission stopping the enemy's army from reaching the empire. The seven men returned home lauded as saviors, and were awarded the title of "The 7 Heroes," while the traitors' names were forever shamed and referred to as "The Lances of Betrayal."

This tale, however, is a lie. The "Seven Heroes" in the story, were cowards who fled upon seeing the enemy force. The "Lances of Betrayal" were those who bravely pushed on to complete their mission. However, upon making their way home, they were ambushed and slaughtered by the cravenly deserters to take from them the honour and glory of achieving the quest. Unbeknownst to the treacherous group, however, one survived by consuming the body of a fairy. His name was Ascheriit.

Now, twenty years have passed since the war. Ascheriit, reborn and taking the name Köinzell, returns to the empire to wreak his vengeance against those who betrayed him and his friends. At the same time, there comes word of a prophecy, proclaiming that a hero will come from the frontier to stop a mysterious, deadly catastrophe.

This is a goddamn good mango! Similar to Berserk without the GAR main character (well.. he's quite GAR and shota). The mango contains mature scene and gore scene.

I totally recommend this mango for the people who like Berserk and Basilisk. Freakin' awesome!

Summary
Katsuragi Keima is known on the net as the god of getting the girls while in real life he’s known as otamegane and he hates all real girls. However he is approached by Elsee, a devil from hell, to help her in catching runaway spirits that hide in people. Apparently the spirits only hide in the hearts of girls and the only way to get the souls out is by making the girl fall in love so the spirit gets forced out. And he’s not allowed to fail or he will lose his head.

The mango is like a dating sim series. The main character is obsessed with game that he didn't even pay any attention to the class not to mention scoring perfect scores in the finals.

You know, lately there are many game series that had be adapted into animation. For example, Xenosaga, Tales of the Abyss, Fate/Stay Night, Tsukihime and so on and so on. So, which game series do you want to see next in line to be make as an animation?

2- Grand Theft Auto
Dunno why, but I love to see this series to be make as an animation. Filled with violence I guess..

Categories: action, adventure, fantasy, shounen

Author: Izawa Hiroshi

Chapters: 38 - ongoing - irregular

Summary

Taking place on the fictional continent of Elibe and stars Roy, the son of Fire Emblem protagonist Eliwood. Roy leads the League of Lycia's army against the forces of the militant country of Bern shortly after his father falls ill.

The story begins when King Zephiel, ruler of the kingdom of Bern, finishes the brutal conquest of Ilia and Sacae and sets his sights on Lycia. With the war coming to his own country, Roy is sent home to lead Pherae's army to oppose Bern, but soon after he meets Guinevere, the princess of Bern and Zephiel's younger sister, who has escaped from her homeland to search for a way to stop the imminent war between Bern and Lycia.

Upon the death of marquess Hector, Roy carries on the Lycian League and makes many promises: to protect Princess Guinevere and Hector's beloved daughter, the mage Lilina, and most importantly, to save the entire continent from Zephiel's mysterious thirst for world domination.

But this story's hero is Al, son of a Bernian blacksmith. After turning 15 he left his home with his father's sword to go on an adventure in this continent bound for war.

Side story of Fire Emblem ~ The Binding Blade (Gameboy Advance Videogame).

I really recommends this comic because I like to play Fire Emblem's games.

Date and Time

Date: 15 & 16 August 2009
Time: 10am - 7pm

I'm pretty sure most asks us about the event date. Due to the current world economy recession, we're playing safe by delaying the event further so that we have more time to approach sponsors and organize more fund-raising events ( yes, we do fund-raising events. EMiNA is a poor club ya know. Lol ). We tried our best to avoid having the same date with CosFest and fasting month. Look at the bright side, you have more time to prepare that killer costume or watever you're planning on . Anyway, we're really sorry about date if it upsets you T_T.

Don't worry, we are just trying to stick with our "we don't organize sucky event" committee motto. With more time, we'll be able to organize the event better than before .

Please don't kill us T_T

Venue

Venue: To be Announced

Yes, we realize that our event was too big to be held in the same exam hall ( what can we say? free venue is very... tempting ~ ) This time, say goodbye to "overcrowdedness", "lack-of-oxygen", "i-can't-feel-the-aircond" and "I-CAN'T-MOVE!!" as we will organize this event in a bigger hall. Don't worry, we know you cosplayers hate shopping complexes XD.

With bigger hall, we'll be able to cater our growing crowd. More space for everything too ( and we can finally fit in moar art/doujin booths. ).

We'll announce the venue soon.

More information will be released soon. So check out this thread often

Los Dan Faun

[center]LOS DAN FAUN

[/center]

The Story:
Los (Hans Isaac) and Faun (Adlin Aman Ramlie) are two childhood friends who come to Kuala Lumpur to make a living for themselves. Together they have a gift for deduction which helps people find their misplaced belongings.

They soon become well-known and are seen on tv.

Recently bereaved Jasmin (Erra Fazira) sees an ad for their services on TV and hastily calls Los and Faun to garner their services. When her super-rich husband Tuan Soffar (Afdlin Shauki) died, his very expensive watch went missing, and she needs their help to locate it.

Los and Faun visit Jasmine and find that she is very beautiful, living alone in a huge house of luxury, and fighting off Tuan Soffar’s younger step-brother Jefri (AC Mizal), who claims that some of her inheritance belongs to him.

Faun, struck by Jasmine’s beauty, tries to make some deductions about the whereabouts of Soffar’s watch, but to his and Los’ chagrin, finds that his powers are strangely affected by Jasmine’s presence.

The movie is funny even though it had several flaw in it. But I especially laugh out loud when Ida Nerina play as a dumb blond.

Screw me sideways... 1 day, RM15 and 2 days are RM25? Is this some kind of a joke?

Seriously, if they really want to do it in Sunway, I doubt that there'll be a lot of people coming like last year since Sunway is too far and very hard to reach via public transportation. Unlike Times Square, you can't reach Sunway via Monorail or LRT. You must take the bus which I hardly think that it will be fast and easy.

So, anyone is going?
