Ken: I'm amazed that I enjoyed "Empowered" as much as I did. It's proof that fan service per se isn't offensive; it's the accompanying attitudes that really make or break a story with as many costumes failures as "Empowered."

Only one volume, though there are a few I missed (not like I could have squeezed them in). I'm very interested in "A Wise Man Sleeps". I can't wait to hear what you have to say about it. And I was also interested in "Cy-Believers". The description on that sounded interesting. I need to pay more attention to Go Comi. I wasn't impressed with "Switch". It has potential, but the first volume is a mess in a lot of ways. "In the Starlight" was a series I considered when it first came out as well. Too many manga, too little time...
