Anime Watch: 07 Ghost [Update]

Finally I have completed watching the anime series, 07 Ghost. I must say, the ending is quite nicely done but it sure leaves an opening for a possible season 2.

In the later part of the anime, Teito was persuaded by Bishop Castor to take the bishop exam in order to make himself stronger to deal with Ayanami. When he decided to take the exam, Bishop Castor gave Teito a bascule but he was unable to merge his powers with the new weapon. Bishop Castor offered to give Teito training to build up his strength and use the bascule.

Later, Teito met a guy whom he initially thought was Mikage but he turned out to be a relative of the Oak family, Hakuren Oak. Hakuren had sweared off his family ties to become a bishop as his mother had been possessed by a Kor and was saved by a young Bishop Frau.

They become friends although Teito still puts Mikage as the number 1 friend in his heart. Nonetheless, they faced the obstacles together while taking the bishop exam and they managed to pass all the stages in it. Just when Teito was about to come out from the exam area, Ayanami ambushed him. Teito has his final showdown with Ayanami but before Teito could use his full powers to defeat him, Ayanami escaped along with his subordinates.

Prior to that, Ayanami's subordinates had successfully separated Teito from his Eye of Mikhail and stole it before Teito could recover. All that is left for Ayanami to do is to capture Teito. Apparently he needs both the Eye of Mikhail and Teito for some unknown plan.

After Ayanami's escape, Teito proceed to start his journey to the Land of Seele together with Frau, who had become his mentor, to find his destiny.

And so, we have come to the end of the anime and now I am suffering withdrawals from the lack of 07 Ghost. Now I am searching for the manga version of the title so that I can get more information and story background. However since the manga has been licensed, I can't find any copies on the net. I wonder which shop stocks this manga so that I can go and buy all of the volumes.

Wish me and Teito best of luck! =D
