ok does any one know if ever there will be or if it is even completed manga cos chu? i am only able to find chapter 1

Amazon.co.jp lists 3 collected volumes, so there's more out there. I can't imagine a short run series like that from the defunct Manga 4-koma Kings Palette is going to get licensed, though....

Just found Stravaganza - Isai no Hime. Nicely done "medieval" manga. Also, i like the artist style. Also just finished reading Reiroukan Kenzai Nariya from the same author.

It's not. It's fantasy. Medieval manga are Vagabond (Miyamoto Musashi), Vinland Saga (vikings!), and Otomo Sensou (Hussite Wars).

Its a way of speaking. I am not saying that is a "historical" manga, like the ones you listed, or Historie, for example.

Even though I haven't started reading it yet, ( I ordered the first arc and it should be arriving soon) I'm preparing to start "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure". I've heard good things, so, fingers crossed!

In case anyone cares to know, How a Realist Hero Rebuilt the Kingdom has made it into manga. It begins like an old CRPGame (said so in light novel itself):



I kid you not! Otherwise protagonist is different kind of hero who doesn't take significant part to fighting (character class: administrator; NOT fighter). I quote you light novel:
Quote
“It is said that a hero is ‘one who leads the change of an era,’”
That he does. Cliches and tropes abound, but occasionally protagonist goes straight against them in most surprising ways. And it is GOOD! At least light novels are...

It has the expected violence, but is a bit too derivative while not really fitting with the rest of the existing setting.
So, meh...

I just discovered, Marry Grave.  It's art is darn nearly same as the Seven Deadly Sins manga.  Story of slightly crazy widowed husband looking for items to resurrect his Bride. Humor is good, the story perhaps silly at times and elements of dark are balanced.  It's more Adventure/Comedy if anything else, it's enjoyable.

Their up to Chapter 28 from what i googled. However it may not be fully available per region maybe. I stop following it when it switch over to this flashback/prequel Manga.  I hate looking back, i like moving forward with the story.

I hear you. When he went flashback to the vampire lady in Last Order, I...

Come to think of it, that's where I stopped reading it. It was interesting at first. It was NOT interesting for multiple volumes.

So I got the first couple of volumes of Cased Closed! and I keep meaning to start reading them.

This has not happened yet.

And how many movies are there as well? I have the first five seasons (about 131 episodes) and 6 movies they released in the States, but have seen nothing since...

Well considering that's all FUNi had the rights too. But not anymore.
And outside of Crunchy's streaming, could you honestly expect anyone to physically release a now 900 ep ongoing series? Considering how long it took to get the original LotGH series released here? I can't really expect anyone pulling the trigger on that.

Check Hidive for it, it was part of their Beta launch portfolio.

Unless you want to spend what will probably pretty much immediately be at least a four-figure sum on Sentai's DVD box release of which a limited-edition run of 1,000 units is announced to retail for 800 USD in July this year.
