@ninjawedding I never really had the inclination and finances for manga coincide. I just borrowed it from a friend.
In terms of ownership, I got about 5 books into Ranma 1/2 and 6 into Inu-Yasha before I got a bit soured on the genre.
@ninjawedding I don't actually know where those went. They vanished somewhere in one of the many moves.
@ninjawedding That's a fantastic excuse! Though the only one I really am familiar with is Rayearth. I played the SNES game (ahem, ROM) at a formative age and was reasonably traumatized.
@ninjawedding From what recall it was half-decent, as a SNES JRPG, though not super original.
But the ending was a bit, ah, traumatic. And entirely unexpected. So.
Rayearth II starts about as dark and stays that way for a while
