AirGear

 
AirGear
Tis midnight in Tokyo which means some bedtime reading - so how about some AirGear?
Thanks to member Bele for finding Ringo in her evening wear - chapter 59 page 20 onwards.
Have been wondering where she appears looking like this after discovering the Yamato figure.
Some of the AirGear girls in action below. Didn't know this had fan service in it - prolly need to check it out for research purposes.

Seconded.
She looks nice without her glasses, wearing hat, and her hair untied.

Poor Ringo, I feel that she's  been exploited so much that it doesn't match her to do so much fanservice.

Air Gear had bountiful reaps of interesting potential. As it stands now the manga is currently in a very warped and unexpected state. 

Not to say I am unintrigued in the latest arc, but with the most recent developments it makes me question the Manga-ka. (Yeah I am also indirectly pointing this to you Kishimoto and Kubo!)

Simca's evil doing has reached legendary proportions. The anime is so short though and lacking in detail into the manga though; it should be a two-star only priority on any watch-list.

I agree. The Anime doesn't even compare to the manga, because they only decided to do one season, and they cut it off in a very awkward way.

a very disappointing way.

true, i must agree the manga is way better in terms of storyline and details..
but i feel the anime is more action pack..and i love the soundtrack - a bit of jtrance + jrap

also i found reading the manga abit dizzy and blur for me...very compact and too much drawn...if you wat i mean..

the anime for air gear doesn't do justice to the manga...
the amount of detail the manga is known for goes straight out the window...
so so sad...

Well it's from the same creator of Tenjo Tenge so no wonder it has this much fun service. That video was from the TV series, on DVD the upper crows (covering the "eyes") disappear XD

So you couldn't resist the temptation, eh Danny.
Upon watching the video I laughed at the zoomed-in crow. But I don't feel any wish to watch this series. At all. No joking.

I like the op theme. But havent seen any full eps.

Question, are those birds always there, or is there a way to remove them? Cos they're really annoying.

Unless it's the crotch, they're removed in the uncensored/DVD version, which is why I haven't watched the anime online yet.

Funny how Ringo didn't realize what she was wearing until she finished dressing up lol.

Oh! Great is a great artist and it's funny how he started as ecchi manga artist.  It's kinda shame that he doesn't draw that king of stuff anymore...

lol, Airgear. I'm surprised that you haven't read this sooner Danny, its probably one of the best ecchi fanservice mangas. And if you like Airgear, you want to check out Tenjho Tenge too (the jap version of course). Oh Great is really good at drawing, but he can't write a coherent plot to save his life.

hahahahah. lol at the crowsdidn't see that part of the anime.  I dropped it after around 4 episodes and picked up the manga instead.  ^^  Not a lot of fanservice though when you compare it to tenjou tenge (the manga...not the show). XD

Never saw it because i heard it's airing in America. Which means anime that's decent, but i'd rather avoid... i wonder how they censored all that fanservice though. People who watch anime on American TV are missing out...

Oooh, i would definately reccomend you start reading Air Gear, it is my second favourite manga series, and it really is awesome. I also think it would appeal because the manga has plenty of nice fanservice, and unlike the anime, its not covered by little crows.

Its strange, but most of the nakedness always seems to always occur at the end of the book, but i guess it gives you something to look forward to? xP

Considering Oh! Great started with doing hentai manga, this material is pretty much PG-13 compared to his other works...I love his art, but he's trying to hard in keeping the story interesting by putting too many surprise plots in nearly every other chapter...but it's still interesting enough to follow...I'm still rooting IkkiXRingo, but the story looks like its starting to lean towards IkkiXKuu...

I like the designs in Air Gear nearly all the characters are cool. But what makes me don't like the manga and anime are the character development and story. But IAM ALWAYS open for fan service such as these.

I love that stringy outfit thing lol. I want the figure... even tho it would be THE most pervacious figure of my collection lol.

Are those floating crows always there covering the nudity? I've always wondered whenever I saw bits of Air Gear.... Do you get the uncut version on DVD?
