I was nervous for a minute, because all I could see on the "Latest Topic" name was "Wangan Midnight author..." I thought something tragic happened, but thank goodness it's a new manga. laugh2.gif

It looks really interesting! Can't wait to read it, assuming it gets scanlated.

Great, you copy-pasted from the homepage without proper text encoding and didn't actually bother linking to the page so we could fix it. Siiiiiiiigh.

Do you think the anime is named "eight" because the number eight has a similar look like a guitar?

Hard to tell, but I think it could be band name, because it is very popular among japanese rockers to use english names, song titles etc. And, it's only manga, and it was not even started, so can't talk about anime.

Or maybe the anime manga (derp.gif) is named after the band.

This actually looks really interesting. I can't wait to look at the raw scans! Let's hope someone picks it up to scan/translate. If not I'm going to have to start taking Japanese classes!

It seems that first chapter is available online:

The reader is not working on my computer though, so I wonder if anyone could capture some jpgs?

Looks great! Though, I have to say, he still draws faces kind of weird, haha. I hope this gets translated soon. One thing I would really like to see in this manga is some great references to classic Japanese pop/rock of the '70s-'80s.

Yes, the faces are typical, looks wery "Wangan Midnitish" , he really didn't try to chnge his style, but that's ok smile.gif . It looks a little sad without cars, he drew cars really great and I liked how he incorporated even the newest ones, unlike Initial D smile.gif .

I only wish for this series to run longer than C1 Runner, which made only 12 tonkobon volumes.
