WHAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!! x_x

I have another Kazuya Minekura manga! (that's the one who wrote/drew Saiyuki, for those of you who don't know) and it's SO cool! It's called Bus Game and I have a pilot volume (that's like a prologue something). The art is gorgeous (as always) and it's so friggin cool! The plot is thick and seriously thrilling... Abnd gods but the boys are pretty... SUGOII!!!!! *geeks out and faints* x_x

EDIT: Whaaaa sugoii! Some girl in the manga is playing a fighting (arcade) game with the saiyuki characters... At the moment it's Gojyo (her) vs. Chin Yisou (one of the main characters) ... SO COOOOOOOOOOOOlllllllll!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D :D :D :D :D :D

EDIT2: for those interested, a short summary of the manga that is definately worth everyones money! Don't read if you don't want spoilers!

The manga is about these three guys, 18 year old Saitoh, a high school student who's a great technition and an even better tactition but clumsy and kind of innocent. Mishiba, a 20 year old student in web design who's very, VERY good at the material arts and very cold, and Nakahya, 22 years old and an ex-gang member and streetfighter, college student and thief, he can be pretty heartless...
These three guys are in a game called the biz game.
From the manga:

"A battles simulation in wich gamers, selected by various corporations, play three-on-three. Yhe battleground  is usually inside Tokyo.

The rules are simple:
One team is selected to be HOME and the other AWAY. The HOME team is given a disk containing their corporations secret  files to protect.  The AWAY team attempts to steal that disk. AWAY wins if they can steal the disk in the given time limit. HOME wins if they can keep the disk safe.

The game information and details are distributed to the gamers via mini-disk. The businessess participating in the biz-game wager huge sums of money on each game, watching the action from a distance.

It's a stupid game, a way for rich people to amuse themselves.
And we're their pawns.

In exchange for putting their lives in great danger, gamers stand to gain huge sums of money, both trough their contracts and by winning price purses.

At first, I just wanted the money.

Yeah, at first."

Sounds pretty exciting doesn't it? It gets worse. Along the way, they find out that the losing team is most often assascinated. They descide that they can't run away from this and to go on untill they're the only ones left standing... There's no other way out than trough, so to say.
Also, they run into this uber cute cob (the girl from earlier) who's on their case and Saitoh ends up playing a Saiyuki fighting game against her at the arcade. They don't know her than, yet, and she doesn't know them. When she finds the gun the others pushed on Saitoh to keep safe though, things promise to get ugly...

It's an awesome manga full of action but with the promise of lots and lots of character developement and unknown pasts and motivations. (Like why either of them even started playing the game, something only they themselve know (not even their teammembers). Oh and gorgeous boys (and the cute girl cob of course) let's not forget those....!

All in all, it's SO awesome... AND I WANT THE NEXT VOLUME DAMN IT!!!!!!!!!
