Rhombaad said:Just finished volume 9 and ordered vol. 10 right afterwards. I'll probably start a thread after I finish the next one, since I've heard ten is pretty epic.
宮本 グリフィス said:Yeah man, every time I check this thread, it seems like Rhombaad is two volumes ahead of where he said he was going to be! We've got an addict!
宮本 グリフィス said:Looking forward to that! Also, great scenes you mentioned too, I even added one to the favorite moments thread.
Rhombaad said:I love how he does his best to irritate that one Yagyu disciple (I don't have the manga handy and I forget his name, I think it's Murata) by repeatedly messing up his name and insulting the clan.
Rhombaad said:All the other disciples aren't even phased by Musashi's attempt to get them worked up.
slan69 said:Well I have finally read Vagabond and I read volumes 1-3 in about 2 hours because I found it to be just as amazing as everyone says it is, I will definitely buy the rest and read it
Th3Branded0ne said:What are your thoughts about it, from reading these first 3 volumes?
Matahachi takes some growing on you, like a fine wine! The series is the same though. I didnt like it much until later until about the seventh volume or so. Stick to it!slan69 said:Well from reading the 1st three volumes I can say that I really don't like Matahachi, I thought what he did was selfish and wrong because he already had a fiance and he made things worse for Miyamoto. I really don't like the granny to because she's so damn mean to Miyamoto when he was only telling her the truth, so in return they send a huge search party to kill him . I have to say so far my favorite part was when Miyamoto went to the Yoshioka school and challenged Yoshioka Seijuro to a duel and killed those 5 men, then Yoshioka's brother ended up having a duel with Miyamoto. Well I will definitely try and get up to speed with everyone here by reading the rest and keeping up to date with the new chapters that come out

Slan take it from me a girl, the Kojiro stuff is worth sticking around for. SO HOT!!!

宮本 グリフィス said:Yeah, I don't think there's anything wrong with feeling that way about those two. They will grow on you though, in their own way. I'd say more like a fungus than a fine wine though.
Certainly an early highlight, and that's basically what he's going to be doing for a while, except on a much higher level, both in terms of his challenges and the storytelling.
Awesome, I hope you'll be extending your stay at the Inn!
slan69 said:I really enjoyed the fight Miyamoto had with Inshun it was pretty intense if you ask me, and I actually really liked Inshun in the story. He's a pretty cool character and his story when he was a child was very sad
Walter said:Whoa, Slan is slamming through Vagabond! Good to see you've crossed into the good stuff now. Hope you continue to enjoy it and post your thoughts, impressions.
slan69 said:I really like the Kojiro arc he's quite the odd one in the story so far. He starts carrying that huge samurai sword at the age of the 3, jeez he's like super toddler or something
宮本 グリフィス said:I think I've said it before, but that section, from about volume 21-25, is some of my favorite material in the entire story.
宮本 グリフィス said:I need to re-read that section too, I know how great it is, sort of the first long form section that really makes you think, but it's been so long I've almost forgotten the details why. So, it'll be nice to refresh.
slan69 said:Yeah I should also get back to re-reading Vagabond. I have forgotten some of the story in volumes 1-15.
