I have the complete volume of Real Bout High School! I have really enjoyed the manga series and now I like samurais so much I try to watch as many samurai related movies and anime as I can! Who else had read this?

Well, it is unfortunate that your first response will be negative.

I cannot give a complete opinion; I have read only volumes 4-6. A friend told me the series takes a serious turn at that point and that nothing other than character development would be lost. Hence, I will naturally assume that there is character development I know nothing about.

However, of the new characters I was fairly dissapointing. They seemed fairly spastic. Not in a literal sense, but in that their actions never completely worked for me. Certainly things are not properly explored, at least as I believe they should be. Ultimately, I'll say that it merely isn't my style.

I would comment upon and object to the fanservice all throughout the graphic novels. Not any explicit nudity, just in terms of clothing and position. A minor point, but one that was annoying.

Just looked too fanservicey to me. But I haven't read it, so my opinion is about as incomplete as they come. (Yes, I often judge manga by their covers *slaps wrist* Bad me.)
