Elemental Gelade Volume 1

During a routine raid, sky-pirate Coud Van Giruet discovers a most unusual bounty: Ren, an "Edel Raid," is a living weapon that interacts with a human to become the ultimate fighting machine. But Van Giruet soon realizes that Ren is even more prized than he first thought. When she is captured by an evil man who sells Edel Raids on the black market, Coud and the agents of Arc Aile join forces to rescue Ren!

The long-awaited manga series based on the hugely popular anime franchise is finally here!

Reading Elemental Gelade is like clinging desperately to a rocket racing towards a munitions factory. Seriously, if you don’t believe me, listen to this--after successfully robbing a rich snob of his loot, Coud Van Giruet and his fellow sky pirates discover that among the plundered booty is an Edel Raid (a living weapon that physically bonds with its user, usually morphing into a huge honkin’ sword). Her name is Ren, and she immediately develops a bond with Coud. But soon after they are attacked by Arc Aile--an agency dedicated to protecting weapons like Ren, consequently keeping them out of the “wrong” hands. But Ren wishes to go to a place called “Edel Garden,” and asks Coud to help her escape--which ignites a fierce battle between Arc Aile and the entire sky pirate fleet. And that’s just in chapter one, folks.

Elemental Gelade is unapologetically fun, delivering action and thrills on one page, while tugging on the old ticker the next. Coud is a hero on the rise, a boy whose heart makes up for his current lack of skill with Ren. Coud and Ren’s relationship is the beating heart of the story, as he and Arc Aile form a rocky alliance to keep Ren safe while she quests for her mysterious Garden. The art is full of energy and life, in that stylistically the transition from the page to the screen (for the hugely popular Anime) is almost seamless.
 
If manga-adventure has a name, it must be "Elemental Gelade"!

I really love this manga series! I already have the first 2 volumes of it and now I'm just waiting on volumes 3, 4, 5 and 6 to arrive! :)

This is a really gravitating story. A must read. I wonder why it was taken off the Tokyopop Player. I hunted down for it... forgetting the name. Doubt i will forget it now.
