"Rurouni Kenshin" (rurouni is a made-up word roughly translation to "wanderer")
The Escaflowne manga is hideous. It's lousy. It's bad art and worse butchery of the story. Don't bother. Most of the time, the manga comes before the anime; in this case, they tried to create a mange after the anime, and it just didn't work.
Thanks for the warning! ;-) I wouldn'ta bought it, in any case. Ten dollars a volume for something like eight volumes...eek!
Which I guess is probably LESS than most other series? Reasons why I'll probably never get into it...
