The initial few volumes' scanslations might put you off...but as you go on, by the third volume scanslations get better. ^_^ Unfortunately the manga got licensed, so I think manga volumes only till 19 are available as direct downloads. Torrents might have the stuff after that. Do inform me if you find it on torrents ^_^

The series tells the story of Ginji Amano and Ban Mido, a pair of superpowered individuals known as the GetBackers. The duo operates a freelance repossession service out of one of the seedier areas of Shinjuku, Tokyo. For a fee, they will recover any lost or stolen item for a client with "a 100% success rate". The GetBackers' job often leads them into bizarre and dangerous situations in order to "get back what shouldn't be gone". Their targets range from lost video games to misplaced components of an atomic bomb. The plot mostly revolves around their adventures, often complicated by the pair's convoluted, individual pasts and a mysterious place known as the Limitless Fortress.

The GetBackers manga series is written by Yuya Aoki and illustrated by Rando Ayamine. The series was serialized in is published by Kodansha's Weekly Shōnen Magazine from 1999 until 2007, totaling 39 volumes containing twelve story arcs with the name of "Act" and a short number of side stories. The manga is published in the United States by Tokyo Pop and currently twenty-seven volumes have been released.

Where are the scanslators? T_T

@ Jin - If you're talking of the anime, this is NOT the place.

@ Kyo - ~~~~~~~~I want post 19 vols!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Think you'll be able to scanslate the volumes? I might be able ask around and find some translators who might do the translating. No one particular in mind - but I do know places.

The vols are from Tokyopop i.e. already translated... scanning them up will be an issue since I dont have my own PC or peripherals yet... School PC's as usual... BTW I want vol 1 scanslated if you can find that anywhere... the Tokyopop idiots put the pages in the wrong order... already read it.. but still would want to know the correct order of pages so that I can rip em out and have it rebound properly...

Oh... you mean theyre still up there?? I thought Tokyopop really cleaned GB out of every site... hmmm... guess I will go back for Vol 1 then... I had actually read upto vol 3 or 4 on some website... I forget which before I stopped (no further scans) and then I bought these from Tokyopop on sale... $7 apiece I think... give or take...

Why give away such an important plot element? You should really try to read all of the manga....

Kyo!! Glad to see you're active here.

Where are the scanslators? T_T
It's been almost 2 years since the last release.
BTW, what was GB all about? I remember something about 2 guys and a trench coat wearing gentleman, but it's all fuzzy. Razz Seriously, this is ridiculous! I can't believe there isn't a single scanlator.

The only reason I didn't reply to this yesterday, was that I wasn't sure myself, that I read that right. But now my doubts are cleared, I shall second that question!

hehe.. yeah. Well what do you expect, it's been 2 years since I read or seen something significant about GB. If there aren't any new releases soon then the memory of GB is just gonna fade away.

BTW, Ace, I heard the new mods banned you for 'foul words'. They even removed all your posts it seems. Man... they are strict! I'm sorry I can't do anything since Animax asia isn't my jurisdiction, since I don't have powers or even a say there.
