Banana Fish @ Yoshida Akimi Fan
Scans of Banana Fish covers, artwork, and sample pages from many issues of Pulp and Animerica Extra, as well as a running list of edits and changes made in the English translation. This site is in Japanese, but very easy to navigate, and all of the manga scans are from the English version. An English version of the site is available here, but the content is slim and outdated compared to the Japanese version, which is up-to-date all the way through the very last issue of Animerica Extra.

A very cute Japanese site with beautiful fanart. This site has grown and expanded exponentially over the past year - really, there's a ton of stuff here worth checking out, especially the fanart.
Double Switch
Beautiful Banana Fish doujinshi. Although the page is available in both Japanese and English versions, sadly, not all of the links in the English version work. You will have to enter the Japanese version to see all of the beautiful artwork. But don't worry - even in the Japanese version, everything related to Banana Fish is labeled in English anyway.
Banana Fish @ Yoshida Akimi Fan
Cross-listed from the "English" category. Scans of Banana Fish covers, artwork, and sample pages from many issues of Pulp and Animerica Extra, as well as a running list of edits and changes made in the English translation. This site is in Japanese, but very easy to navigate, and all of the manga scans are from the English version. An English version of the site is available here, but the content is slim and outdated compared to the Japanese version, which is up-to-date all the way through the very last issue of Animerica Extra.

English mirror of the above website. Not quite as thorough in content as the Japanese version, but still, there's quite a lot here. Of course, it's quite out of date, but still useful.
