The last chapter I read revealed who the Millenium Earl really is "whistling:

Quite a few manga on hiatus due to the artist's ill health. I know Hunter x Hunter is regularly on hiatus for long periods of time.

D.Gray-man is one manga I've been meaning to read for a long time. I've also haven't had the chance to watch the anime, I did download it once along with many others but the external I had them saved in died on me. I've seen some of it's reviews and it looked good.

It's a standard battle shonen in it's essence but, the character progression and plot make it stand out from Naruto and Bleach. Sadly it did/does not get as much recognition as the others do.

I just remembered another anime I still have to watch & it's because of it that I ended up looking up D.Gray-man in the first place. Trigun, I'm sure you must've seen it or at least know of it.

I have seen parts of it but, I have yet to watch it. What I have seen, was fairly decent. It reminded me of Outlawstar and Gungrave in some ways.

Gungrave is another one that I had but didn't get to watch, I'm starting to remember a whole bunch of anime I've missed due to my crappy WD external, I lost 3TB worth of content that I've yet to recover :cry:

Gungrave as awesome. I really enjoyed it, it's slow start helps setup the fall the two character experience in the middle and the end of the series. Both characters played strong roles, they had just seen the world slightly different from one another.

I keep everything on multiple drives, but I am looking to get a 6TB or a 8TB as an archival drive. I was thinking of a home NAS with RAID 5 but if a unrecoverable error occurs on one of the other drives the data loss occurs across all. Looks like it's multiple Drives in a NAS with no RAID is the best option.

Hmmm... D.Gray-man... That anime keeps showing up in discussions. I might have to give it gander as I'm always cautious with shonen anime, but if it's more like Hunter x Hunter than the other shows, at least in tone if not story, then I might be pleasantly surprised:D .

If I had the cash I would also have a NAS setup of my own but for now it's watch and delete for me. It took me a while to get over my tendency to collect & keep certain files but I have had to adjust to survive. The way I see it, someday I'll be in a position to re-download all my beloved content and have enough capacity for it all, even if it'll just sit there.

I've come to notice that most shonen that aren't "main stream" but keep showing up on lists for top this and that are often worth a watch, you might even find yourself a new favourite :)
