    I tolerate dubs unless they hurt the ear to even hear them haha. I love subs much more not only for the voices and acting, but for the meanings of what they actually are saying. It sucks that a lot of the amazing meanings to what they are saying/ what goes on is lost in translation sometimes.

    I can't wait till I start the later on DGM anime episodes that has Miyano Mamoru seiyuu. I'm a Mamo-chan fan =3

    @ariahien:
    I prefer the subs for DGM, I haven't really heard any good dubs for the newer anime xD. Perhaps you would know of some?

    You're learning Japanese? Sweet~ And you like the dubs for DGM? :o I was a bit doubtful about Allen's but I haven't heard Kanda and the others so maybe it'll sound better for them. :3 I should hit up a dub episode one day hehe.

    @Toshiro:
    Oh Tyki, back to black and white sides <3.

    Spoiler (show)

    Surely it means Neah times. :D

  3. ToshiroBurrito 5d 18h ago

    Dude, you guys! In the last chapter, I fell head-over-heels over what Tyki said in Ch.210! "Show me some interesting black and white". What do you think will happen o.o?

  4. ariahien 1wk 6d ago

    I usually watch the dubbed version first so I can take in everything a lil easier then go back and watch the subbed. I just finished all the dubbed episodes and am re-watching in subs at the moment. I think dubbed only goes to 51 or so? I have a ways to finish. >.<

    It's so worth it tho! Such a wonderful series.

    Do you prefer english or japanese dub? I'm learning japanese (helps with how much anime I watch hehe) and absolutely love the language, but am usually fine watching either. I love being able to watch it raw and mostly understand what is being said. For DGM, I think the english VAs were cast nicely. Kinda makes me sad they haven't been able to dub the rest.. that I know of. o.O

    @Toshiro:
    omg omg Allen cupcakes! Thanks for bringing them, Toshiro! :D I love it! I can imagine them now, with white frosting and red icing for his pentacle. Strike~~~ om nom nom.

    I wonder what flavour those cupcakes are though. lol, you don't think... beansprout? pffft bwahaha - //shot by Allen

    ....*cheerfully bleeding* Thanks for reminding us about the new chapters coming too~ I often forget until I wander back to the DGM Livejournal community or it pops up on Mangastream lol.

    @ariahien:
    Haha, I adore Timcampy too, ariahien~ I'm all in dispute with which side to eat first, it looks too precious to eat almost. xD
    No worries, I watched the anime before the manga too. ;) Which arc are you up to? :D

    P.S. I found something! This. :DDDD

    P.P.S. Something else I found. :'> Johnny + Allen Walker = this?

  6. ToshiroBurrito 2wk 1d ago

    Yay! ^.^ Timpcanpy cookies!<3 *eats* Yummy :D If only they had awesome Allen cupcakes :P That would be awesome. Anywho, just reminding everyone to check out the newest chapter of D.Gray-man coming out next month! Keep checkin out Mangareader.net or Mangastream.com to read it when it comes out!
    And I brought Allen cupcakes! :3 Lol :D

  7. ariahien 2wk 1d ago

    Yay cookie! I dunno if I can bring myself to eat a Tim-shaped cookie tho, I love that lil golem haha.

    Heh no spoilers will be coming from me. Sadly I've barely touched upon the manga and am only half way through the anime. I love as much as I've seen/read tho.

  8. aozoraskies 2wk 2d ago

    And we're glad you found the group, ariahien! :DD Haha, yes, a lot of fandom groups are quiet here - it makes me sad too. >_< Still, let's celebrate the D Gray Man fandom~ *gives new members Timcampy-shaped cookies* *tucks a plate aside for the other mods and admins when they get back*

    I will be busy since I have exams very soon. ^^; However, I would love to drop by a few and chat DGM with you guys~ So, tell me, where are you guys up to in the manga/anime? Are you enjoying what you're seeing? Or devastated? xDD

    Try not to give spoilers, because some of us are still a bit behind in the manga. ^_~ Otherwise, use the spoiler code:

    [ spoiler ] [ /spoiler ] <--- remove the spaces. :3

    See you around!

  9. ariahien 2wk 2d ago

    Thank you for the welcome! I'm surprised it took me so long to find this group haha ^.^;

    I'm happy to see it is active here. Some of the other groups I've found seem pretty quiet.

  10. aozoraskies 2wk 2d ago

    *Gasp* I'm sorry, Toshiro, I didn't notice the memberlist had new additions! Added you, so:

    Welcome, ToshiroBurrito, ariahien, Atif, soraya49 and zneko94z! I hope you all have fun here - viva la DGM~

  11. ToshiroBurrito 2wk 2d ago

    I applyed for this group cause I'm a huge fan of D.Gray-man :3
    Could I please be a member of this club >.< Pwease! >.<

  12. aozoraskies 2wk 3d ago

    @Toshiro: Not sure if 211 or 210 but if it's the chapter that came after the Johnny-and-Kanda chapter (pfft) then yes I have read it. :DDD

    @Zefie: I failed at answering this quick. orz Tests next week, been skipping between studying and mutinously submitting old art for new challenges on theOtaku. ^^;

    If your theory of "We see more Kanda because we didn't get enough last time." is true... We need a short standalone manga for Lavi already lol. Bwahahaha, Kanda getting a sidekick story - Allen will never let him live it down.

    xDD Well it's good you support the official releases. I ought to try that out someday lol.
    lol, I think the arc that you're reading, the guys' character designs suffered a bit lol. Got a bit block-y as compared to the "everyone pretty" in the chapters when they were in London. xD Think that art style appealed to fangirls the most - "Lenalee's hair looks like Anita's ;_; Allen <3, Kanda looks like a pretty man! Lavi~dat ass" hahahahaha xD

    lol they grew up so fast, I swear they started with those four looking like about 12 years old. xDD

    No worries, I like DGM-style angst too. 8)

  13. ToshiroBurrito 2wk 3d ago

    Anyone read the latest D.Gray-man Chapter (210) Besides me? o.o

  14. Zefie 5wk 6d ago

    I was so surprised to see it in the game store, where from I usually buy my manga. I just grabbed it with eyes glowing, since it was the only one left xD It's pity though that VIZ changed the cover image, I would have preferred the original ~ since it's more bright and I don't know, more attracting image. I have some of the scans too though and yeah, the little comedy pictures are cute, like the chibis.

    Haha, I guess it will be us two babbling the guestbook full ! But hey look at the bright side, now at least you don't have to be the only one being loud ! We can embarass together so it doesn't seem halfly as bad ;D

    Waah, I just finished chapter 199 D: But there surely has been a lot of Kanda, feels like that even now especially because of the Alma Karma. One whole comic of fighting with him seemed bit boring. But then again there was a quite long time where didn't really see Kanda at all, so I think it's nice to have him around again. Maybe Hoshino-sensei should make this little sidekick story D Kanda-Man ~ I would read it *trying not to laugh* :'D

    Actually I don't know should I be called "loyalist to the official releases". I have to admit, I have only read the official releases ~ BUT ! I have never decided that I couldn't read the scanlations. And specially since I have read some series only as scanlations... But then again, since I have only read the official releases, I guess you can call me the "loyalist" for them xD

    I didn't really notice the change in art that dramatically before than just recently. I like the change in art too, gives more vibrance to the story and it would be kinda funny that during the characters long stories they wouldn't change a bit. I can't really think Allen being 15 years old, now he seems more like close to 17 or so. Kinda like the matured look, but there is something with the front hair and eyes, which I don't like that much. But maybe it's just question of geting used to the new style ^^ I agree with the battle scenes and actually they seem more clear and simple now, she doesn't add too many details to them anymore. Well they are detailed, but there is more simple shading and effects with bigger spaces of white.

    I don't know, I haven't really gotten emotional while reading it ~ bohoo, I'm emotionless D: But yeah, they seem to be more tragic faster than before and then the situation clears out faster too. I kinda liked it though before that the characters had flashbacks from the sad things happened before, like Krory is missing Eliade sometimes. Gosh, I sound like a bad person without empathy...

  15. aozoraskies 5wk 6d ago

    AHHHHH~! You got the Noche artbook! So awesome!1! :DD I love that artbook and it's little comedy pictures with the backstories. I don't have it, but I do have scans lol.

    And OTZ I'm sorryyyy, I just have been busy and only a few people responded so I felt awkwardly loud >____< BUT. DGM chapter 210 was pretty cool~

    People might complain about it becoming D Kanda Man (lolll) and yes, there has been a lot of Kanda o_o. But hey! Probably Hoshino figured that with the shocks of the occurences concerning Kanda and Allen, we could do with some happy comedy with a dash of grim revelations. I mean, not like she hasn't done that before with LENALEE. *Remembers the Zombie Invasion of the headquarters* pffft.

    So, Zefie, are you a loyalist to the official releases so you don't read the online scanlations? >_<
    I like the changing art styles but yes, one does miss the Gothic times! It's become more mainstream.. But, she's gotten better with battle scenes, I think? Or at least better with managing them - she knows her long battles don't work out very beautifully, so she staggers them with in-between scenes, so it's at least moderately dramtic and short. :3

    ...The emotional scenes just get more and more obvious though. ;_; It was more subtle last time. Guess it's a stage manga like DGM go through. //thinks Tegami Bachi (oh gawd the tears will flood us through the 4th wall)

    And everyone - WELCOME. Welcome to another part of the D Gray Man fandom, let's make this corner cosy and loved, please!

  16. Zefie 12wk 6d ago

    Firstly welcome to our new members ~ midashi13, Rin-Takara, YukikoSuzuki, Snowqueen2011and last but not least,Tama-ch4n ! Hopefully you will enjoy your time in our group and share your passion for the DGM with us all ♥

    Temari ~ you know, you are not only one who happened to notice this thing of suddenly realizing to been disappeared again ! I feel being such a failure after trying so hard to visit at least once a week, but meehh... what is it, that makes it so hard to type password etc and press the "log in"-button ?

    I'm not sure which chapters I last time read, but I guess I'm coming way back anyway ~ since the english translations from VIZ always comes like months late available in here. Anyway, I have noticed that the art style seems to change quite often lately ~ sometimes the characters look really mature compared to the start, which makes me wonder that have they actually aged during the story or are they still supposed to be the same as at the beginning ? Somehow it would seem silly, but then again there hasn't really been clear change of the year etc... Or is it just me who is wondering these silly things ? xD Sometimes I miss the old style though, loved the way how black areas and some details, like moon and stars were really graphic and rough. Then again it's cool to see how these professional artist too keep developing their skills, gives someways nicely encouragement to keep doing on our own art.

    merged: 12-17-2011 ~ 02:00am
    Oh come on people ! ~ Where are you guys ? It's been seriously too quiet on this group... Any ideas to kick some traffic to this page ? We had nice start of conversations, but it seems to be ended before it even started x3 So come on everybody, be brave and do some posting ~ We don't bite people here...at least not very much :3

    Things from my side, I finally got my hands to D.Gray-Man Illustrations: NOCHE artbook published by VIZ and I can't tell enough how much I love this book ♥ Would have preferred to the original Japanese release, but I'm not complaining over this one either. Have anyone else got his/her hands around the artbook ?

    And lastly but not least ~ We give a warm welcome to our new members atchan and fishshell ~ Hope you will enjoy of your stay among the rest of us D.Gray-man fans and share you passion with us !

    I've realised that I've disappear again >_<
    Welcome new members!~ <3

    DGM manga has became quite chaotic o.o
    And yes our beloved characters suffering T_T
    I've actually missed some chapters... I really do prefer DGM to be weekly instead >_<~
    I have to re-read the later chapters too because the plot became quite confusing @_@

    But Hoshino-sensei's art has always been <333
    Hoshino-sensei's art style have always been changing o.o
    But the recent manga chapters' art has been getting weirder? xD

    And yup DragonBlood~ It was nice to finally see Kanda's part of his story~ Been waiting for it for such a long time~ @_@

  18. DragonBlood 20wk 5d ago

    Quote by aozoraskiesWhat do you fans think of the recent developments in the manga, plot and/or art-wise? Is it totally exciting/crazy or terrible to you, is it better than before or worse?

    Well..for me it's totally exciting since Kanda is one of my favorites...I also like the art!

  19. aozoraskies 20wk 5d ago

    Welcome, DragonBlood, Xsaver95, LunaticCrow21 ! You are now all members of the group~ I hope you all will have fun here.

    I haven't been around much >_< Finally, FINALLY exams-free but now trying to finish up an art project. See you peeps when I'm done~

    I'll leave here a question for D Gray Man discussion:
    What do you fans think of the recent developments in the manga, plot and/or art-wise? Is it totally exciting/crazy or terrible to you, is it better than before or worse?

    I personally like being surprised but oh Hoshino, where are you taking this, are we getting dragged into time-skips argghh. LOL Do love how she still knows how to mess with our heads and hearts though, with all these scenes of "Our beloved characters. SO SUFFERING." and confusing us still about just who the Light and Dark sides are already. XD Though the development of a certain moustached character really didn't surprise me that much, I was just waiting for something like that to happen.

    But gawd, Hoshino, stop taking it out on long-haired characters. ;__; Or I'll make everyone get haircuts (like Lenalee) just to see them make it through alive. Though... Seeing Cross with short hair might just make me lol too much. *bawls and laughs at the same time*
    Lovely as seeing all the art styles Hoshino can pull off, I do miss the gothic creepy times with the art style all in raggy, drippy tatters and the contrasting dark/light relief sometimes. XD And also the pre-Third artstyle where Allen and Link were suddenly put through the 'pretty bishies' treatment (Allen's HAIR. *__* ) Kanda got so pretty yet toned though, I swear the fanfic for him just suddenly got hotter then lol.

    Well, thoughts?

  20. DragonBlood 21wk 0d ago

    Hello! I would like to join this group...

  21. temarigenius 34wk 3d ago

    Zefie we all know your pro-ness =D
    The dots <3 haha xD
    When it comes to art, i have totally no patience at all >.>

    Yay Aozora thank you for more link!~ =D
    Going to listen to the drama CDs to relieve the exam stress =D
    Then I'll read the new novel too o.o~
    Got to refresh my memory ~.~ I'm forgetting many parts of the manga...
    And lol, the anime made both the manga and novel lamer... idk o.o the drawings in the anime became weird at one point... but the OP and ED videos are awesomely drawn <3

  22. aozoraskies 34wk 3d ago

    Here are some of the info on the novels - They're called D.Gray-Man Reverse. :3 I downloaded some ages ago, and I'm happily surprised to see that according to baka-updates, I've read all the chapters of the first and second novels. \(^o^)/ I thought I missed out on some for sure..
    This LJ group might have the translations. :) http://dgrayman.livejournal.com/ I'm kinda starting to love LJ communities... Join it to see all the posts. :3 And if you do have a LJ, let me know too? XD
    The original scanlations group seems to have disappeared though, Timcampi v_v

    ...Upon further research, D.Gray-Man Reverse 3 is out. With some of the new characters. O_O I want to READ. ;_;

    @Temari: It's out on youtube, the Drama CD 2 at least. And someone posted translations on her blog.. You could look for both on my page, in the Nico Nico Douga Radio section XD. Or if that's too much, look here~ :D Haha exams </3 is correct! >_<
    Yuppers, at least 2 of the chapters were out in the anime but.. they made Allen's so much more.. lame. It's a lot darker in the novel, with Allen being tempted to - I was going to make a spoiler there, but just read it~ Zefie, any random member reading this XD

    @Zefie: I didn't know of the drama CDs either until I was looking for material for my radio playlist. :3 Good surprise yosh!
    Dottings again? :O I have not the patience for that, gambateh ne! Haha, drawing can be therapeutic, that it is. :) We'll be waiting to see your work!
    *cough*put up the group button when you submit*cough* XD

    P.S. Just downloaded one of the translations of the Reverse 3 chapters. Sooo beautiful to read ;_; I'll read past the first 2 pages after my exams.. Maybe.

    EDITed for inaccuracies. ;) You saw nothing.
    Also, read summary for Reverse 3. o_o The first story is unbelievably cute and has the inner fangirl clamouring for it to be a visual novel or something lol.
    The second story... Pretty much reminds you how unbelievably cruel Hoshino can be to Allen and Mana. I mean, if you thought the MANGA was sad, this novel is devastating. o_o Remember the arc with Allen's flashback to Circus!Mana and the dog? That was sweet, right? Mana was a bit loco but funny right? The novel makes it sick omg. Read. Go to that LJ and look under the tag 'novel' and 'novels'. I don't know to be .A. or :D now.

  23. Zefie 34wk 4d ago

    I haven't even heard there was side novels of the series ~ would be interesting to get my hands on those. Haven't heard of the drama CDs either, seem to have missed a lot. And about the drawing... what "masterpiece" ? Have tried to finish it now, though still lots of dotting to do. I don't know why I make the dottings so much even if I know it's pain in the butt to make it. Then again it's kinda addictive x3

  24. temarigenius 34wk 4d ago

    LOL~ The chaos of Komui's chemicals haha xD That never fails to make me laugh~ Drama CD based on that? I need to find it o.o~ lol

    I have read parts of the side novels, they included some in the anime o.o for example the Kanda arc =D
    The rest, i kind of forgot ~.~

    lol exams~ </3
