    Terrible News For Double Arts Fans

    I've got some bad news for the fans of the series Double Arts. I've been hearing this rumor a lot lately that due to low ratings Double Arts is going to be cancelled and that this weeks chapter will be the last one in the series.

    Now this is only a rumor that nobody has been able to confirm yet. I've also heard rumors that the it's just going to be moved to another magazine. We won't really know for another week or so. I hope that these rumors are just the product of some idiots out there.

    I can only hope.

    In the event that this rumor is true, then it looks like I'll have to say goodbye to one of my new favorite series. It's too bad, I was planning on reviewing it in a few weeks.

    (New Post)

    Bad news. The raws for this weeks chapter are out and its been confirmed, Double Arts has been cancelled and there's no indication that it'll continue in another magazine.

    I feel so sad, this became one of my new favorites and now its gone because of the idiots at Shonen Jump.

    I'm going to go wallow in my sorrow for a while so I won't be around. Goodbye.

    New Review/Kind of Dissapointed

    Hello my non-existent fans!

    How's your week been? Mine's been interesting. I managed to get through my second week of college without anything catastrophic happening. I was able to get all my homework in and so far I'm passing all of my classes. I have to say I'm pretty proud of myself.

    Anohter interesting thing that I just found out about 15 minutes ago is that my room mate is transfering schools, therefore I now get my very own room. Of course it's a suite sytle room so I still have to share a bathroom with two other guys next door but oh well.

    So I know I said I would leave more hints so you could try to guess the series I plan on reviewing today but nobody even tried once to guess. I'm kind of dissapointed. So I think I'll hold off on this little game until I get a fanbase the reaches the double digits.

    Now it's friday and we all know what that means, another spine-tingling review from yours truly.

    Let's Begin!:

    Flame of Recca

    Ah, Flame of Recca, this takes me back. For those of you who don't know, Flame of Recca was a fairly popular series that started way back in 1995. That's right, thirteen years ago. But, we should not judge a book by its age. And this is one hell of a book. Flame of Recca was the Naruto of the time.

    So what's this story about? Recca Hanabishi is a self-proclaimed ninja of the modern day. He's obsessed with the silent assasins that we all know and love. He has an ongoing challange that whoever can defeat him in a fight will become his master, so far nobody has been able to best the ninja boy. Until one day he meets a girl being harassed by couple of your stereotypical street thugs, he tries to save her and of course gets the crap kicked out him. When he sees the girl, Yanagi, that he tried to save kneeling over him.

    Recca then discovers that Yanagi has an ability to heal people once she takes care of the wounds he got in the fight. She begs him not to tell anybody, instead Recca proclaims that Yanagi will be his new master and that he will protect her until he dies. He takes her to an abandoned house and reveals his power to create fire to her to show her that they're very much alike. Immediately after this happens, they're attacked by a strange woman who comes out of the shadows named Kage Hoshi. She fights Recca and nearly kills him until Yanagi intervenes. Kage Hoshi states that she wishes to die and that Recca may be the only one who fulfill her wish, she leaves claiming that she'll return soon.

    So that's the first chapter in a nutshell. Sounds kind of stereotypical, right? Don't let that put you off though. This series has enough twists and turns to keep the anime/manga fans out there satisfied. Like I said before, this series is pretty old, but not so old that it's ancient.

    So I'm going to wrap this up here. It's a completed series with 33 volumes and an anime with an alternate ending was made and has also ended. The anime was dubbed into English but keep in mind that it was dubbed around the same time as Dragonball Z and Sailor Moon. Be prepared for crappy voice acting and lots of editing.

    Give Flame of Recca a try, if you like Naruto and Bleach then I'm sure you'll enjoy this.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    So I know this one was short compared to my last two. But I kind of ran out of things to say after I compared it to Naruto and I'm not in the best of moods right now so sorry if my writing showed it. I really don't think I did too good of a job with the description but hey what can you do?

    So I'm not going to leave a hint this week unless you guys ask for one.

    Well that's all for now. Read and enjoy.
