I watched the anime and I am wondering if the manga finalizes things a bit more. No spoilers pls XD

Considering the anime only covers the first 8 books of the 23 volume manga, I would say so.

Some of the history revealed later on isn't as um... "G" or "PG" as the beginning. If that doesn't bother you, then I highly recommend to read or finish reading the manga. Its worth it.

Here's a review of the manga here at CAA. LINK
Naruto Fanfic: Kokoro of Konoha by Sailor Dove

What is the power of the weak and the weakness of power?

What would the butterfly effects be with an OC with no chakra or ninja inclinations but a coveted special sensing ability? But that's not her only closely guarded secret. Psst, don't tell the hyper blond boy she hates ramen.

Now I must find the actual manga... Alas, manga is so expensive! and I have to go to another city to find it... T.T

It's definitely worth it. It was the first manga I ever read and I'm thinking about rereading it because I liked it so much. I got it from the library though.

If you're able to order online, then there are several legit online stores where you can get cheaper prices than in bookstores- one of my fave sites I can buy it for about $2.50 less, don't pay tax, and if I order in bulk (save up and buy a bunch, totalling over $50), then I also get free shipping. If you can't order online, then... ouch :(

They show what the normal price is on the back of the book and sell for, well, less :)
And I've double-checked this a billion times, since it's considered a family outing to go to the bookstores. I've never found them to be off on what it is.

The $2.50 is only for Fruits Basket, though- it varies depending on which manga you're getting and whether they're having a sale on it or not

They would pretty much have to pull an FMA:Brotherhood to do it, though. The anime ended in such a way that there's really no possibility that they could just continue and in any way keep it true to the manga. *I'm lookin' at you, Akito!* But, if they did start over again...I would certainly support it. :) There are many things in the manga that I'd love to see animated.

Agreed!!! Though...
The anime was very funny and quirky, but the manga quickly moves into deep/emotional/dark stuff (by volume 11) so I'm not sure how they would p[ull that off...
