[quote name='crystalklear64']I've actually read all the Berserk manga as well, but again, manga and anime aren't the same. I don't favor one over the other, but I do like to see the full story in both formats.
I'm certainly not a fan of FMA, the series or the ending. However, I read a description of Mai-HiME and it didn't sound very appealing..
"Fuka Gakue is a unified school from primary through senior high school. In Fuka Gakuen, there was a rumor that a mysterious monster appeared, and that the only counter measures for the monster were girls called "HiME". They have abilities of HiME (Highly-advanced Materializing Equipment).
Mai was a transferred and she didn't know the rumor. However, she was suddenly told her she had the power of a HiME. After facing a few problems, she learns to live her life as a HiME."
Sounds like sailor moon to me...[/QUOTE]
A bit of a weak comparison. If you want a more accurate description, it's more like an all female version of
S-CRY-ed with a dash of Pokemon & Highlander (In the end, there can be only one) for variety. If you haven't seen s-CRY-ed, it's basically what would happen if the Xmen took place in a post apocalyptic wasteland. Now take that story & instead of post apocalypse, put it in an "exclusive elite high-school" setting & you've got Mai-HiME. If you check out the sequel... or rather the 're-imagining'... of Mai-HiME called Mai-Otome, throw that Xmen-in-a-high-school setting & put it on desert planet with some pockets of oases in between like Trigun.
EDIT: and speaking of Otome, good plot development storywise in 15 though it's a bit weak on the action side.
EDIT2:
[quote name='Ikohn4ever']I am sorry this is my first time to one of these anime threadss and I guess you are right no one here has
ever talked about manga.[/QUOTE]
I wouldn't say ever. More like rare but if you talk about any of the regular anime discussed in these threads, the manga most likely talked about will be Naruto, Bleach & FMA. As was suggested to me, I think by karsh, check out the manga Death Note.
