@bennyb:
Its exactly the latter case that is what drives people mad. When Berserk or Gantz authors took 4 month breaks, I was like big deal, I'll live. I can't imagine having been totally caught up with HxH for like, the past 2 years. Ugh.
Great manga tho! Probably my favorite VIZ release next to Eyeshield 21, FMA and One Piece
Hm, seriously it doesn't hit me as hard.
I love the series because what's been, not because of the waiting for new stuff to be covered. I was like that around a year before and I will be when/if the series comes back to life. Till then I'll gladly read the series over and over, it's awesome enough for that.
It's not that I'm really waiting too, there's ton of stuff. One Piece and other great manga/anime, REAL LIFE..
I really don't understand people saying "I'll give up after <time>", how the hell? All you need to do is sit your ass and read it when it comes out. Quiting only means you won't read when it comes out, why?
I can guarantee [sp?] it, believe be you'll know by nature when chapter 261 is out. Without searching.</time>
