Embrace it
I have been a fan of Labyrinth for a very long time so I was very excited when they created a manga sequel to the classic fantasy film. The cover art for The manga is beautiful. It's true that the internal art work isn't as good but it's still a charming story. The portrayal of Jareth is accurate to the film. From the part where Toby says 'You said you wouldn't mess with me anymore!' and Jareth quips 'I said I wouldn't HELP you anymore. There's a difference.' to the way he abruptly leaves his own kingdom. It's true that the story does read a litle bit like a fan fiction. Many fan fictions have been named Return to Labyrinth over the years but considering how many fan fictions Labyrinth has spawned a real sequel was bound to feel like a fan fiction of some sort. I love the manga just so long as Jareth doesn't turn into anything or die before the trilogy is complete. And I've been told that Sarah plays a bigger part in the second volume so I am looking forward to that. Things change. I find that most of the negative reviews of Return to Labyrinth are people who just don't want to see things change or evolve from what they loved growing up. I feel the spirit of Labyrinth lives on in this manga. The cover art is stunningly beautiful. The story, though reads a bit like a fan fiction, is compelling. I'm happy with it. So long as Jareth doesn't turn into something horrible or die I'm happy with it. I enjoyed volume one of Return to Labyrinth very much.

His name is ALucard NOT Arucard!
I am TIRED of finding products on ebay and Amazon sold out of the USA and Canada pronouncing his name as Arucard. There is no excuse for that. Just to point out what should be obvious the story of Hellsing is about a secret organization founded by Professor Van Helsing from the novel Dracula. Van Helsing has captured and enslaved Count Dracula who now answers to Alucard (Dracula backward). ALucard. It's only pronounced as Arucard in the Japanese version because the L does not exist in the usual Japanese language and is hard for most native Japanese speakers. The character is named Alucard NOT Arucard. That was a Japanese mispronunciation on the attempted Alucard (Dracula backward). It's not even that hard of an anagram! For Americans to pronounce it as Arucard feels like an insult to the Japanese. So those of you that do this. Please... Please stop...
