Manga Information

One of the best places to buy manga is Sasuga Books. You can find their website under the "Shops" section. They can, and will special order just about any manga you can think of, in addition to artbooks and sometimes CDs and videos/DVDs. There are other places on the web as well, or if you are REALLY lucky and live somewhere with an Asian marketplace, you might find all kinds of good things in a Japanese bookstore near you. NOTE - Gravitations is currently 12 tankubons (volumes) and currently running in the manga monthly magazine "Wall Flower", so expect future tankubon.

Novel

Gravitation: The Novel ISBN: 7-7897-1640-6 Price: 880 yen.

Okay, this one is for those of you who can read Japanese well, or have a strong desire to translate. *smiles* Or perhaps if you just want to have it for the sake of it being Gravitation .. I fall into a bit of all the categories. Though it will take me a long time to translate a novel. Oh well, we all need goals, eh? ^_~ Here's the summary that was with the novel on the Official Grav Homepage:

*STORY* Bad Luck's vocalist, Shuichi Shindou, spent his whole life thinking there is no such thing as a "fated love". To be charmed by gravity, it is said, is the origin of love. By making Eiri Yuki's heart his, he gained a beloved boyfriend, on whom he persists on intruding upon, until Eiri has him move in. Hiro, Shuichi's best friend and bandmate, has a theory about Eiri's interference in hindering the concert, what with problems of laziness of Shuichi's surroundings ... Media mix expansion to be an anxious topic of this high tension love comedy, lost in the novelists debut.
