Title: Does anyone else know King of Thorn? They're making it a movie~
Post by: PaperShredderchan on February 22, 2010, 10:05:28 pm

I just recently found out that a King of Thorn movie is being released this year, and I'm really excited~
It's a very unpopular manga series that only has six volumes, but it's really good
...actually, now that I think about it, I remember hearing something about it not being printed anymore because TokyoPop is haveing some kind of money issues.

Anyway, I was just wondering if anyone else knows this series so I could share my excitement with somebody
-doesn't know anyone else who knows it-

Here's a link to the trailer:
English- http://www.kingofthorn.net/en/index.html
Japanese- http://www.kingofthorn.net/jp/index.html
^{(They're different, btw. The Japanese one is better.)}

Yes! I know it. I read it a few months back, and I loved it. I was slightly confused, and I still don't understand everything in it. x.x However, I was extremely excited when I heard that they would be making a movie a few months back! I'll definitely be going to see it! =D

I loved King of Thorns.  Ending was a little weird but is was definitely a hidden gem.  I just need to find Vol. 5 somewhere since I haven't bought it yet.

I just started reading this a while ago after reading a preview of it in Anime Insider. I'm not very impressed with the artwork so the movie should be welcome.
When will it come out?
