This wallpaper captures the urban essence that proliferated the art of Ghost in the Shell in every incarnation of the series. Phill does an amazing job of capturing a moment of surrealism.

While there are a few, stray building angles and shadows, you find that your eye forgives the minor details and instead focuses on the overall scene that is larger than life, with lights trailing off into infinity.

Most pointless argument. My coworker thinks that these walls and VECTORING is just easy and takes no talent... -_-

Have anyone read or have gotten the first volume of Alchino? I love it so far expecially the characters. I was wondering if anyone even heard of it?

Alichino is pretty good. it falls into that strange shoujo, quasi-gothic, fantasy/occult genre o_O lol.I'm in love with the art style. Kouyu Shurei's lush visuals are enough for me to pick this one up. to be honest the story and narration is a little lacking, but if you want gorgeous lines and haunting characters this is a great series.

I read 3 volumes of it (I think that's all of it) a very long time ago and thought it looked very well-drawn but the story was lackluster.

I like the art, but the story is kind of boring. That, and I keep getting confused by who is who. Some of the characters look kind of similiar.

I read some scanlations of it a while ago, but I've been meaning to pick up Tokyopop's graphic novel. Maybe their translation makes more sense. I've heard that the manga was never actually finished, though... I hope it's not true. :(

It is true. IIRC, the 3 volumes of scanlation I read was all there was to it. I'd also like to say MangaProject always does a pretty good job so I doubt Tokyopop would have a better translation.

I agree that Alichino is really beautifully drawn. The details and the clothing styles are really spectular! But yeah, theplotline is lacking, I really only read it for the artwork XD

This manga has insanely beautiful art. The story is a little hard to understand if you don't pay attention. Too bad it was never finished. U___U

Sakura-crisis [dot] net had some scanlations up for a while but they replaced it with other scanlations because nothing came after the third book.

I don't know if i've seen prettier artwork in this particular style. it's worth the purchase even if the story is lacking. the visuals more than make up for the lack.
