Alright \nyuca\, this is where you share with everyone what you are reading. What manga series are you currently reading? Tell us something about it and what made you decide to continue reading that series? Let's get this rolling? Sorry everyone, I had to use this motivational poster in its original size.

Right now I'm reading Liar Game. It's basically Death Note meets House of 9 (obscure British movie no one's seen). I started watching the Live action series after I read a sig on GameFAQs (my current sig here) and after I finished that I started reading the manga and despite some weird animation style, it's amazing.
I'm also reading the three English Code Geass mangas, but I'm determined to read them as I buy them, so it's kinda slow (one volume of each every two months or so =[)
And Naruto because....well who doesn't? It looks like it's nearing it end though. Probably only another hundred chapters till that's over....

One Piece, Bloody Monday, Zero, Full Metal Alchemist, and Ares. Bloody Monday comes out with new chapters on One Manga more frequently than the other series, but One Piece is still my favorite.

^ One Manga is my lifeline.
Currently checking one Kekkaishi and Kuroshitsuji whenever I log on -- and Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles -- for the lulz Seriously, is it ever going to end?
p__p As far as purchasing manga, I've always supported one of my favorite manga-ka of all time, Matsuri Akino so yep, I'm collecting Shinjuku Petshop of Horrors. [D; Oh Tokyopop, why have you forsaken me? Iwishthey'dfinishGenjuunoSeiza]

[D; Oh Tokyopop, why have you forsaken me? Iwishthey'dfinishGenjuunoSeiza] Read both of those. Finished petshop of horrors but didn't read tokyo petshop of horrors yet. Where's the fun if orcott isn't there. I think it ended pretty nicely. Read a bit of that genju thing. Only like the first 3 or 4 volumes. Not sure how many came out. As for manga I'm collecting, I'm concentrating on getting excel saga now. while I'm here:

PFFT Excel Saga -- I've only seen the anime so are the differences between the two media spectacular?
True, Petshop of Horrors did end beautifully - I was satisfied with it but just had to pick up the new series when I first heard about it. xD Not sure where this one is going to try to go, I do miss Orcot and Wufei Rau doesn't do much for me, but I want to read this through to the end
And far as Genjuu - I'm aware there's 14 volumes out in Japan but Tokyopop has dropped it as a project. :< Poo.

I saw the anime for excel saga first also, and boy was I surprised when I read the manga. The anime's just a bunch of gags and episodic stuff but the manga goes way beyond it. I'll just say, a lot happens. The point where the anime splits from the manga is around volume 5. They're up to volume 19 now.

Reading "Future diary" now. It's a new manga from tokyopop. I like it so far. Too lazy to write my own synopsis.
"High school 2nd year, Amano Yukiteru, is a boy who has problem making friends. He thinks of himself as a bystander and will always write down everything he sees in a cell phone diary.
Tormented by solitude, Yukiteru began to imagine things like a friend called Deus Ex Machina who is apparently the Lord of Time & Space. Seeing Yukiteru's miserable state, Deus gives him a new ability. His diary will now record events that will happen in the near future. Yukiteru is then forced to participate in a game which the winner will become Deus's successor." -mangaupdates
There's a crazy stalker girl. I really like her.
