I agree, especally considering the issue with Usagi Majin that was brought up at the end of #4. I hoped they'd develop that.

Personaly I thought the ending was great, especally considering I know someone with a bit of a mouse problem. Z's comments in the last two panels (i.e. a blank stare) were excellent, as was the way Goku beat him.

Utterly hilarious. I wonder if Toriyama will do a different Neko Ma-jin series in the future, or if he'll just continue doing various one-shots.

Aren't there only like thirty-something Neko Majin in the world? He only showed us three so far so maybe...

Well if this is the finale of Neko Majin all together, I hope toriyama will at least put in some bonus material in the Neko Majin Kanzenban. An artwork section would be nice, maybe even a section that describes and gives the names of all the characters that appear in the manga. The coolest thing would be if Toriyama would surprise us with another chapter of Neko Majin Z that would only be included in the Kanzenban Edition. I gotta stop imagining things that will never happen. An ova would be nice or even a gameboy advance game.

Hehe, I'd really want a Neko Majin OAV out of this, it would be hilarous!

Great manga. Although it isn't the official ending to Z or GT, this ending suits me best. It sucked that at the end of Z and GT Goku left his family and friends.

I hope Toriyama sensei doesn't quit the business. I want to see more manga from him.

My thanks to those who put so much effort into translating and making these manga available for us. I really enjoyed the Neko Majin Z series and this was a real treat to be able to access and read the newer chapters here.

I am sure Mike and Julian [the translators,] are flattered by your remarks, but pull out 'Da Rules' [blatant Fairy Oddparents reference] and read rule #669, it states specificly "Necro posting iz the bad."

[Note: The above was an attempt at pointing out the obvious breach of rules, in a humorous way. Read the rules here, Rule #2.]

Er, Lost, I don't think you can really necropost with a sticky. ^^;

I agree with B, lost. That's why the post is made a "sticky". So it can't be moved down and people can continue to post in it.

Indeed. That is the point of sticky threads. Otherwise they wouldn't be sticky.

And on that OVA idea, I think that'd be frickin hilarious. Doubt it'd happen, but you never know. :D

About canon issues, would NMZ5 be considered canon the way Dr Slump was considered canon in DB?

I would say probably not. Though there aren't really any direct contradictions, I don't think we can simply take NMZ5 and say it is canon while excluding the rest of NMZ; not that it really matters though considering that none of it is relevant to the rest of the canon storyline.

Okay, I'm not really a fan of gag-manga's but this one really caught my attention. The fact that they starred DBZ characters only made it even better! Like I said I'm not fan of gag-manga's so it's kinda weird when I think up idea's for z in a serious dbz story fighting kuriza with goku by his side. :lol: .

By the way, If his name's z Why does that boy call him neko majin?

Probably Toriyama making inconsistency errors. In all three stories the neko majin respond to the name "Neko Majin." Silly Mr mangaka. :P

I think he added it on in the title just to spoof DBZ more.

No, the first chapter states something "This is the story of a particular Neko Majin named 'Z'."

Although it could be a "title" thing. You know, since he's a magical being and all. Like calling a genie named Bob "Hey, genie!" all the time.
