BOTI was the first manga I ever read. I loved everything about it, especially the artwork. I'm one of the people who feel that the series does not need to be adapted into anime. Based on the scans, it doesn't look like the anime version is going to do the manga any justice at all. I guess i'll just have to wait and see how Bee train handles the animations before I draw any conclusions. I'll be damned if it turns out like some Rurouni Kenshin bullshit.
