I have a fuckhuge manga backlog, but this is on the top of the list.

(Anonymous) 2012-03-07 01:36 am (UTC)(link)
Same here. I started reading it years ago, got distracted by RL and have only just got back to it, sort of.

Yes! This is how Shoujo should be done.

(Anonymous) 2012-03-07 12:24 am (UTC)(link)
Read into it...It looks interesting, but 'girl has to pretend to be a boy' stories just aren't my thing.

Anyway, I hope you get your fandom! :)

I love Basara and still hope someone will grant my Yuletide wish for Asagi fic! /shameless plug *koff*

Thanks to some luck with ebay and picking up random volumes through B&N and Amazon, I have the complete set in English. I enjoyed the series, and encourage everyone who likes stories about strong women or post-apocalyptic settings to give it a try. :D

Is your "wish" a fic request for a fest? If so, link me to the comm. I'd love to write Asagi!fic.

OMG ANON ARE YOU ME

I agree soooooo hard! Hardly anyone I knows has even heard of this series! And it's such a shame, it's really good.

[identity profile] caffeine-buzz.livejournal.com 2012-03-07 01:44 am (UTC)(link)
Yay, Basara! I just finished that for the first time about a month ago and absolutely loved it, it's so good. Yumi Tamura's stuff in general needs more love, 7 Seeds has almost no fandom either and it makes me sad :(

[identity profile] amredthelector.livejournal.com 2012-03-07 02:07 am (UTC)(link)
Basara is the only manga I read all the way to the end, not missing any volumes, because it was that good. Yeah, I wish it had a real fandom, too.

(Anonymous) 2012-03-07 02:15 am (UTC)(link)
Could someone tell me a bit more about this?

(Anonymous) 2012-03-07 03:03 am (UTC)(link)
google

it's your friend

The story takes place in a future Japan, reduced to a barren desert by a catastrophe at the end of the 21st century. The main character is Sarasa, a girl whose twin brother, Tatara, is prophesied to be the "child of destiny" who will bring back the country's independence and stop the tyrannical rule of the Empire, namely the Red King. When Tatara is killed, Sarasa pretends to be him in order to keep the downtrodden from losing hope. - Wiki (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basara_(manga))

It's excellent. I definitely recommend you giving it a go.

I'd read it but that art is such a turn-off.

[identity profile] twilightedge.livejournal.com 2012-03-07 02:33 am (UTC)(link)
Oh man, I was into this manga years ago but it was really hard to find volumes for it even when it was being published. =(( Also there's another Basara manga that I get confused with this. To be clear this Basara I'm thinking of, and it looks like what you like, is about a girl who replaces her brother and acts like a prince and tries to win back the throne and meets up with the enemy who doesn't know she's part of the other country and they go on an adventure right?

If so, yes...I miss that manga. =(

[identity profile] amethyst-rei.livejournal.com 2012-03-07 03:13 am (UTC)(link)
I can't even count the number of times I've read this amazing series. I love it to absolute pieces. It's utterly EPIC.

This looks interesting. Sticking it on my to-read list.

[identity profile] myuki-chan.livejournal.com 2012-03-07 05:02 am (UTC)(link)
I love Basara but Viz made me so goddamn angry with how they discontinued random volumes from the middle of the series while still publishing the rest of it.

I AM MISSING VOLUME 20 AND IT MAKES ME SAD. Especially because people are selling it for $300+. DDDDD:

But apart from that, my friends and I were all over this series back in high school. It's a great story.

WE EXIST! WE EXIST!

Somehow...

[identity profile] kilmeny11.livejournal.com 2012-03-07 10:58 am (UTC)(link)
I'm still trying to get my hands on the volumes, but yes, BASARA

Uhm, yeah I think there was a comm here on lj but it's kind of...dead.

I FUCKING LOVE THIS MANGA

at least you're not alone, anon?

[identity profile] twyla-hime.livejournal.com 2012-03-08 06:25 am (UTC)(link)
It's one of the best manga ever created. There's nothing else like it.

I would love the fandom to grow, and see it get more praise and respect. Maybe if they remade the anime it would help.

[identity profile] estinoubliable.livejournal.com 2012-03-08 09:36 pm (UTC)(link)
I never thought I'd see this ever again! I was so into Basara in high school! I only read two volumes though, the only ones I could find. I wish I could finish the series, I loved it so much.

[identity profile] pseudo_tsuga.livejournal.com 2012-03-14 05:54 am (UTC)(link)
So late, but I have to reply with my icon. I'm so sad volumes are hard to track down.
