You can call me Suiki.

I'm spanish and since in my country GB is not licensed, I arrived the old forum looking for an english version I could understand better than japanese one. My english sucks, but i'm a lot better understanding than writing.  Grin

I'm studying japanese too! But only starting.

Who says that reading manga is a waste of time? I'm learning a lot about foreign languages.  Cheesy

Nice to meet you! It is sad that you can't find GB scans in Spanish. but I am happy that you decide to join us. It is OK if your English is not that good! I suck at English, too! And it is my native language! As for learning Japanese, wow! I tried to learn the language, but quit due to difficulty of having too many different letters...hopefully you learn enough of it to read the scans in their native language.

Hello!

It's been nice having GB licensed in the US, but that stopped just as the story was getting really interesting -- so I'm here for much the same reasons as you, to find more GB in English!  I am really thinking about learning Japanese -- I have a bit of a knack for learning foreign languages, and after listening to Japanese in subbed anime for a couple of years, I think I'm actually beginning to understand a bit!  Learning the reading of it, however, might be a bit much.   Wink

Hello! Nice to meet you! I think I missed your introduction over at the old forum.

Like you, we don't have Get Backers in my country either, if we don't count the US imports. Sucks that no more volumes won't be released; Get Backers is one of the few manga I'm actually collecting (like, "physically", with the actual volumes in my book shelf), and I don't like having an incomplete collection.  Sad
Don't worry about the English stuff, I'm obviously not a native speaker either. I still make many basic errors myself and always need to check my posts twice just to make sure I didn't screw up on some grammar.

Wow!

Thank you for all your answers! Looks like I'm doing it better than I expected...

@somehow_here: In fact, yes, there's an spanish scanlation. But the last release was chapter 85.  But I couldn't avoid to give up to the temptation of reading more in english...  Tongue

@lovux the great: Really? What is your native language?

I'll keep trying my best posting in the new forum!!!  Grin

That just so sad!! But don't worry, my group and I will try to finish up series...unless major event happen like big meteor striking earth or something! In fact, I have already edited 5 pages yesterday.  Just another 15 pages to go! So just wait a little bit more! And should see the release of it near end of next week!

I think that most of you guys have pretty good English even though its not your native language. For most of you guys, I wouldn't have even known had you not said English wasn't your native language.
