I've been on this list since around that same time with various e-mail
addresses. The first time I saw AMG was the 3rd OVA when my high school
Japanese teacher showed it to us in class one day. After that I had to see
the rest of it and once I got myself a copy of the OVAs I couldn't stop
watching them, over and over again. I watched all 5 episodes at least 3-5
times daily over at least a few months. I couldn't get enough of it. I
don't always say much. Usually I am more of a lurker, not being in the
best and most knowledgable position in this list, but AMG is probably the
only manga I still follow. Due to my work and other things I just don't
have the time to follow everything like I used to.
