The One True Manga comes to an end.

There is no such thing as "the one true manga". Thankfully.

So, his new manga, will it be the same kind? Will it continue PositioN?* Can't wait to find out. I kind of hope he tries something new, like Mitsuru Adachi did with Niji-iro Togarashi. But if he doesn't that's okay, too. *goes to read Cross Game*

*Speaking of which is PositioN just the 7 chapters?

I won't bother arguing about the "One True Manga" statement (I know you well enough to see that it would be pointless) but it did catch me by suprise when YKK ended. I couldn't be called one of the hardcore fans like some people on the forum are, but neverless I loved the series. The finest slice-of-life manga ever created without a doubt, and it's right up there with Love and Rockets or Gasoline Alley if you were to include American comics. Looking forward to the author's next project.

It didn't come soon enough.

Oh, come on, Steven. Is that the best you can do? Surely anyone with half a brain could come up with dozens of better putdowns than that. You disappoint me.

But all right, since you're not really trying, then I won't bother with the elegant stuff, either.

Hmm. Let's see... something suitably half-witted. Oh yes, I have it:

"Not everything is as premature as yourself."

There you go, Steven. Happy now?

And now you're just trying too hard. You know, reacting to an insult, even with such a long winded response such as yours, still shows that in some way you were miffed. Don't be. It's silly A condescending attitude to a condescending attitude just makes you look like you're desperate.

At last, a worthy comeback -- but why on Earth didn't you go for the gusto with a Cyrano de Bergerac-style list of repartee?

You fail, however, for lack of attention to facts: I am always long-winded, so your observation lacks merit.

Awesome, for all the articulation you have, you still don't realise that the comment I made wasn't meant to be an insult to you, merely me saying "oh great, this comic that I don't like is coming to an end. great!". Just get over it.
