NEW Official RO Manga!

Hey guys,

Today I want to share with you a new RO manga that's being created by Gung Ho and will be published inside a Japanese monthly manga magazine called "Dengeki-Maoh". So to answer any questions...NO THIS ISN'T ABOUT Myung-jin Lee's original manga...even though I wished it would have been it, lol, but this is a completely new story and art style created for Gung Ho and Japan readers, which actually is rolled around the same structure of RO-Animations foundation of plot and character development.
Manga will hit Japanese stores: 5.27.09

Summarized Story/Plot :
It's center around a Female High Priest and a sad excuse for a Knight...In the story we quickly find out that the High Priest isn't your typical nice Full Support. Instead shes the most meanest unsentimental jerky support you could ever party with.At the same time, the suppose "HERO"(Dish) is having a hard time being the Knight he's suppose to be...**Cough**Rune-Knight**Cough**

They'll be joined by 3 additional (party)characters:
A cutey prissy Female Merchant &
The pretty boy master mind of tactics the Male High Wizard.

*At times a Male Priest will jump into battle or events to prove the Female High Priest wrong.

Not to mention 3 troublemakers/comical reliefs characters:
Female Ninja
Female Hunter &
The (*Pimp LOL, I'm just calling him that) Male Professor/Scholar.

========================================
My Thoughts:

The manga is actually well made, not too messy, not to perfect either. But I can see why Gung-Ho wanted to make this manga. Main reasons is that the 3rd Jobs will be introduced in a few months time in Japan and round the world...so what better way to slowly introduce their story line then with a manga of a Knight who COULD become the very next Rune-Knight or Royal-Guard.

The manga defiantly was created to keep players on the edge while theres promos to BUY the manga Japanese players of jRO will get limited items after imputing their redeem codes. Not to mention since RO2 is basically Dead for now, Gung-Ho has no other Anime to work one since they had plans for doing the RO2 Anime...so with the manga they'll be slowly producing the next RO anime under this generation of hero's.

However, when you think about this manga compare to the RO-Animation....is ALMOST similar in many ways in terms of key character development, plot, and story. The main MVP will be consider in this story will be Satan Morroc & Nidhoggr being the biggest pillars to the story, along will Thantos and Naght Siege...so yes the period of time is almost current to patches, so as I said just when 3rd jobs is finally released fully...this guy will be encountering 3rd job characters.

ANYWAYS!!!
Last treat for you guys, official manga pages just for your viewing!
I hope you guys enjoy!
