Now I haven't been on in a very long time and I decided to see if I can get on the right foot here with something that I think hasn't been discussed yet.
Now MPD Psycho is from BlackHorse....and obviously the name gives it all:
Tajuu Jinkaku Tantei Saiko) is a manga (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manga) series by Eiji Otsuka and drawn by Sho-u Tajima, later adapted as a live action six-episode TV miniseries (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miniseries) by director Takashi Miike (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Takashi_Miike). The main character is a detective suffering from multiple personality disorder (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissociative_identity_disorder), hence the name. The first volume in the series was published in February, 1997 by Kadokawa Shoten (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kadokawa_Shoten), and it consists of eleven volumes, the latest published in 2006 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2006).
Starting out as a violent detective series with a twist (the twist being the variant personalities that take over Detective Amamiya at various intervals), the series evolves into an exceptionally complex and involved sci-fi (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sci-fi) conspiracy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conspiracy_theories) story.
At Anime Weekend Atlanta, the weekend of Sept 22-24 2006, Dark Horse officially announced that they had acquired the license to MPD-Psycho. Dark Horse has released the first three volumes of the series unedited thus far.
By the way MPD stands for Multiple Personality Detective Psycho.
Please tell me if there was already a thread of this thanks.
