I finished reading Zombie Powder a couple of days ago and I believe it is a manga with great potential... BUT IS THAT IT?!?!

The ending left thousands of things to wish for and it's not one of those endings that leaves it up to you to make your own mind on what happened after that... there should be much more to the story than just that..

And what about Wolfina? *spoiler*
spoiler[If that psycho mad scientist can do anything she wants to Woflina's body for a year, what will happen? How will her brother be saved? ]

Apart from some other stuff...

Why didn't Kubo Tite go on with the story?

I keep meaning to pick up this manga and read it, but haven't gotten to so far. >.<

I wasn't aware that it was incomplete/ended badly. I hope Bleach doesn't end like it then.

Aparently Shonen Jump gave it the boot. http://zombie.lilyknickers.com/end.php should help you out some.

Yeah..I had already seen that webpage, but I wanted to see if there was more info on it Anime smile;;

I too hope that Bleach doesn't end that way... I'm waiting for it to come out...

But I still can't understand why did Shonen Jump do that... it really has a lot of potential...

Perhaps we'll get lucky and he'll finish it when Bleach is done. It's already insanely popular, so maybe SJ won't be able to say no for him to continue it with his new popularity. Some manga artist have paused a work to work on a new one in the past, so I hope this will happen instead of it fading into oblivion.

.... ....
WHAT?! Shocked Shocked Shocked
I can't believe it! >.<

..I have never seen Trigun but I've only seen 1 person comparing it to Trigun x.x;;

{EDIT}
Well, I have to admit that Vash and Akutabi Gamma are quite similar... but for the rest I have no idea o.o;

yeah, well, it did have great potential, but if it was blatantly ripped off from another series, what can ya do? kubo tite even admitted to basing zombie powder off of trigun.

i was mad for such a long time at trigun (even though i had never watched it before, haha), that i refused to watch it...of course, after catching an episode on CN, i immediately fell in love. Anime hyper;
