Jing: King of Bandits: Volume 7

I finally finished the first 7 and I like that the art is still so detailed and captivating. the stories are entertaining, I started reading this in high school and 15 years later, I’m still finding it cool. I’m going to start the anime next and move on to the twilight series of king of bandits.:))

The art style is different from some of the more common manga. However, this is very entertaining to read. I like it.

Well, I've read alot of Manga, but this one is probably one of the best. I've read up to volume four so far,And, needless to say, I'm pretty much addicted to it. There isn't much of a story to it, it's just about a boy and his bird in pursuit of fine and valuble treasures, while fighting evil villains along the way. Most of the events don't lead up to anything, and past events don't make any difference in the next volumes. It's fun to enjoy just an action flik sometimes though. The artwork in this Manga is Very, very good, to say the least. It's so original, I've never really seen anything like it. It's like a whole new sub-style to Manga. The best part is that the high-quality artwork is maintained through the entire thing, with going down in detail. It's also very addicting. O_o All in all, I'd say buy it. You may like it if you're not much of a storyline person, just looking for some action.

Jing King of Bandits is AWESOME. It has theifs, taking birds, and a casino! Recommed for ages 7+, this can be violent at times. If you like manga GET THIS BOOK!!!!!! There is an anime for it (like all good manga). So if you want a good boook get this!

Jing: King of Bandits is about a teenage boy named Jing and his talking bird Kir ( that can also shoot bursts of energy out of his mouth.) that go from place to place in search of rare treasures. Now I know that that sounds pretty typical but it's a little different than what you might expect.A few things you need to know about Jing before you start reading it is that 1: Unlike the majority of Manga out there, this one doesn't really have much of a continuity to it. At the start of each new story you see no indication that the previous one ever happened. Normally that totally bugs me, but for some reason it seems to work really well in this series. 2: The only recurring characters you ever see in the series are Jing & Kir. the only other mainstay is that all of the stories involve a girl in some way. All of which are either cute or hot. And while Jing is never very interested in the girls, Kir is always trying to put the moves on them, often with hilarious results. 3: Jing is not so much about action as it is about the mystery and intrigue leading up to the discovery of the next treasure. It's not to say that there isn't any action in Jing though, because there is some pretty good action in there.So far out of the 4 volumes that i've read The Lost City of Reviver story in Vol. 3 is probably the one I've found the most interesting. And 4: From first glance the art style in this manga looks very childish, and that is what kept me from buying the series when it first came out. And while Jing looks just like some kid with a spiky hairdo you will come to discover that he is a very slick character. Unlike in the anime where just by looking at him you can tell how slick he is. So while the art syle looks childish, the series isn't. This is currently one of my favorite series out right now and I am always looking forward to the next Volume to come out. So if you're looking for a series that isn't like your typical Fantasy Manga, then I highly recommend you check this out.

Jing is the best! It's the story of a crafty bandit who has a knack of getting in the strangest situations with the strangest creatures. It's a good read in the action and humor section, so, if that's your thing, you'll love this! (and if you aren't interested yet, just wait until you see the way too cute porvoras in book 2! and if that still doesn't get you interested, well... to each there own, I guess) Oh yeah, did i mention the art's pretty good too?
