New Obsession

Thu Jan 7, 2010, 7:53 PM
Over the break I started reading a series called Immortal Rain. I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SERIES!!! It's so awesome. It's got romance, blood and violence, and a little comedy.

About:
Rain Jewlitt, known as the Methuselah, is a spaced-out, immortal, 624-year-old man dressed in priest's clothes. He's got eternal youth and a large price on his head ... put there by those questing after the secret of his immortality. Machika Balfaltin is a tomboyish, energetic 14-year-old girl who, upon the death of her grandfather, sets out to kill Methuselah, the one bounty her assassin grandfather, Zol the Grim Reaper, couldn't kill. Instead, however, Machika ends up being saved by Rain again and again from other aspiring bounty hunters attacking them both. Sound like the beginnings of an odd relationship? You won't believe where their journey takes them ...


You can kind of tell where Rain and Machika are heading but its also very different. Machika takes after her grandfather and carries around a scythe and kicks ass. She does a good amount of fighting but, yes, Rain does save her a lot since well, she is mortal and can't take straight on bullets or a tank (where Rain can lol). There are also many interesting side characters (the Doctor!) and the mystery of Rain's immortality and why he's waited 600 years.

This is on the list of my top 10 favorite manga (I've read it twice so far). Vol 10 I've heard just came out in Japan, Vol 1-9 have been scanlated, and vol 1-8 are available in English (Tokyopop). Even though I've read it online, I plan on buying the whole series soon.

CHECK IT OUT!

Side note: I have no idea what color Rain's hair is suppose to be. It's shown on the covers as yellow, light green, pink, and white. I'm just going with white though because thats the most recent one and he looks good with white hair. lol.
