I hope this is the right place to post this...

anyways i was trying to add .Hack//Legend of the Twilight to my manga collection when i noticed that when i selected "a list of everything that begins with #" that most of the titles where either a movie, OVA, or TV. .Hack//Legend of the Twilight was listed as TV and the English version does not have "braclet" in the title

Also, i noticed that Record of Lodoss War: Welcome to Lodoss Island wasn't in the list.

Thanks and i hope this helps

***EDIT***
I also didn't see Dragon Arms listed. True, it's American manga, but since i saw Spiderman and X-men, i didn't see any reason for it not to be there.

Yeah, tends to be that way (dropping braclet). It sounds like you hit anime instead of manga on the links. Try that and see if you get to what you're looking for (still won't have braclet in the title)

I submitted it, now we just have to wait till an encyclopediest has the time to approve it. To submit you hit Anime (or Manga) under the encyclopedia section then below the letters you'll see "Add an Anime" (or manga). Enter the title and a link there and the encyclopediest will check it out.

X-Men I do know had a manga version based off of it, it was a completely seperate title which if I remember correctly followed a different storyline than the american comics. It was released here as "X-Men: Manga". I would assume Spiderman was also like that. Can't really find any info on either as when I looked on Yahoo "X-men manga" gave me a whole lot of hentai links that I don't care to look at and "SpiderMan manga" gave me a whole bunch of site in languages I can't read.

I checked again, and i know i was in "my manga", but it was still giving me various movies, ovas, and tv animes < i only saw this be the case with the # section.> I tried to add .hack and it gives me the opiton of graphic novel as the format, but after i add it, i don't see it in "my manga collection". But when i switch to "my anime" then it is listed there.

Oh, by the way, i was saying that the English version of the manga is not supposed to have "braclet" in the title, but in "my manga", it is currently part of the title. < in other words, "braclet" needs to be droped from the title>

I took a peek at the manga listing for .hack and it gives it in the Japanese name only. Just click on the .hack title and look under alternative titles. You'll see it gives two others.

I've changed the English version of the Manga to the main title. We'll do the same for the anime when a US release is announced.

hey, thanks for changing that, but i'm still wondering why there is anime listed in the "my manga" section. Shouldn't that be taken out?

it's at this page in the "my manga" collection in the category "from a list of everything that begins with #".

It appears to be a bug. If you try any of the letters they're all manga, but the # section is pulling the list from both the anime and manga section and showing them as one list. My Anime is doing the same thing.

Ok, that's fixed now.
I may not have much free time, but when it's an obvious (and easy) bug like that...

Thanks for fixing that, but there's another thing i noticed in the same area < please note, i'm not trying to be annoying, i just want to be helpful>. But all of the lists of manga have "(Choose ANIME)" at the top of the drop down menu. This one, however, is in every category (that includes # and A-Z). I just thought it would be nicer to see "Choose Manga" since, after all, that is what you are choosing.

Thanks again, and keep up the good work, this site is one of the best! Anime smile
