As for any US plans, Broccoli is coming, ready to usher in the Rune Angel-tai!
Get ready. Galaxy Angel II is almost here! (Manga that is)

Quote by starsaturnOh my gosh you have GOT to tell me where you got this scan from! Is it from a new artbook? What's the artbook called?

nope, it's not from an artbook but from the re-release of the japanese manga of both GA and GA2nd all combined into 5 volumes. the one with chitose and milfie is the cover of the last volume of the 5. oh and to answer your comment from the Fornilla and Ranphint it's an insert picture from one of those volumes. don't think any of these are in an artbook yet since these were released just recently.


Thanks for that. I think another art book is going to be released some time soon though, as GA 3rd has lots of images.

Where did you get your GA perfect editions from? I can't find them anywhere on the net :(

Quote by starsaturnWhere did you get the perfect editions from? PLEASE TELL ME! :'(

i ordered the first three off of the animegamers online store but there was only one copy of each. i dunno if they've restocked yet but you could try checking them out: http://www.animegamersusa.com/ . i ordered the last two volumes through the japanese version of amazon.com because i couldn't wait for animegamers to put up the last two. it's actually been a month since my request for them to get it but they haven't responded yet so it's a good thing i ordered through amazon.


I saw vols 2 and 3 on animegamers but they weren't in stock and at double the RRP OX Shame really, I would have loved to get them.
As for the Japanese amazon, I think I'll look into that. Thanks for everything :D ;)

Quote by uragayduckthank you so much! i'm not good with photoshop or anything so it made me happy to hear some advice from you. when i scan i stick with 200 dpi because if i go higher it just looked weird to me (i don't know too much about these kinds of things). after that i just crop out the image taking out everything outside of the main image. that's pretty much what i do. what's this descreening filter that you said? and which program should i use to mess with the resizing and filter? i'll try and do what you said and then i'll put it up again but better looking. thanks again!


Ummm ... I have an Epson Perfection 2580 Photo scanner and the driver has the descreening filter built in with the scanning software. I'm not great with photoshop either, I use Gimp which is similar to photoshop but it has one shining feature I really like. It's free. Anyway If your scanner can scan larger than 200dpi say like 600dpi even without the descreening filter you can resize the scan and reduce the lines and dots you normally see. With gimp you can run a blurring filter like gaussian blur to minimize all those lines and dots and when you resize it will look better. But the only drawback I found was that it looks blurred if you do too much so it takes a bit of practice to get it right. Gimp you can find by googling it. I should also mention that the higher the dpi you scan at the more ram your computer will need to process the scan. Graphics is very ram intensive. I have 2gb and it sometimes dies on me if I scan at 1200dpi and try to use Gimp at the same time. I also have inkscape and Faststone Image viewer. Both are freeware. I use faststone to do my resizing with. It has been a lot of trial and error for me. So you'll have to find the limit of your scanner and computer and then you can scan with the best of them. It's alot of trial and error like I mentioned and you can google scanning and how to scan and you will find some good info on the net. :) I hope this helps you out. :)

hey wraith! thanks for advising me about using GIMP. thanks to that i was able to get rid of the stupid lines that ruined the chitose and milfie pic. go check it out and thanks again!

Wow ... your going to have to tell me how you did that! I could never get mine to look that good! That's fantastic! Now I'm jealous LOL! I'm glad I could help dude :) Now you'll be able to post scans and they'll be perfect!

So you noticed they were right here.... (points on his left shoulder)

By the way, there's a supercute artwork on the US version of Galaxy Angel II (the manga), but if you get it through AnimeGamers, the dust jacket's image is the JP cover image. That way, if you preorder it there, you get both the JP cover and the EN-US cover (which has Milfie and Rico on it, both showing you, the reader, how much they mean to each other)
Pretty good, how they offer both covers at AnimeGamers.

Quote by uragayduckoh man, i've been looking for this! *clicks add to favorite* good job finding it! thanks very much! this is the cover to the japanese version of the first volume of GA3rd. i'm hoping they'll keep this cover when it comes stateside.


mmm i really hope to keep the cover, its awesome eh?

Good evening.
Read the comment, and thank you.

Japan tries to enter the rainy season.
It is sultry every day.
Recently, it was busy and did not do the net.
It is holiday after an interval of the tenth.
It is very the enjoyment.
