NEWS: Tokyopop Manga Volumes Pulled from July Solicitations

Damnation.

I was hoping they'd be nice & let almost finished titles finish, but we ARE talking TP. 2 whole volumes of Gatekeepers.

I seem to recall this is the last volume of Lilling Po.
I really can't see Gakuen Heaven. The title's popular. Same for Love Mode. Hopefully it's just a temporary hold on the yaoi.

Sorcerer Hunters-expected it, but there's only 13 isn't there? Again, so close. I have the old series, butr my teen's friends borrowed it so I was re-buying it because a couple volumes have fallen apart (don't know what the girl was doing with it) Hopefully my last 3 volumes are in good shape

But I would think, unless they've actually been plotting this for awhile, these things have been translated & printed. Seems strange to pull the plug now.

Here's hoping they're all just rescheduled for now-smaller trucks to save shipping costs/gas. Maybe they're taking time to put little warning stickers on the cancelled titles. "Tuff luck bunnikins. We are discontinuing this title. Search the net for Scanilations."

These are uncertain times indeed.

With the Trinity Blood novels taking a hit, I really hope they don't cut the Twelve Kingdom books. Since there's only volume released per year, maybe it will be spared?

As long as Chibi Vampire and Moon Phase aren't canceled I'll be happy.

With Trinity Blood do you think it could be possible that they are just delaying Reborn on the Mars and restructuring their releases for it until they finish Rage against the moons?

I'm sure that some of those titles have just been postponed temporarily, due to not having enough staff to work on all of them at once. So don't freak out just yet, people.

It was confirmed over at the BLU forums that Love Mode (Edit: Vol. 11) and the next volume of Gakuen Heaven are currently postponed, not cancelled.

"“Right now, these are postponed. Please support Love Mode 10 when it comes out in August. If it sells as well as volume 9 or better, it will be very difficult for us to not do volume 11."

Awww I love Suppli.

I'm hoping that Zig*Zag and Nosatsu Junkie would be saved, but I guess this is not the case.....which forces me to either buy the manga in its original language or read in scans. *facepalm* Sad

But at least that it's not being canceled completely, or else I would go nuts if they do that. Now I'm buying manga from Even though if they saved most of their titles, I doubt that they would ever recover from this mess.

Isn't it typical for our review of Gosick to go up and now look here to see the 2nd one getting delayed, probably forever. The series had promise!

And Nosatsu Junkie is far and away one of the funniest shojo, romance manga out! GAR!

That's not fair!!!! A lot of people read these volumes. WHY DOES TOKYOPOP TORTURE US OTAKU?!!!! Mad

Well out of the Tokyopop titles I am collecting, only one has any real chance of being cancelled. I didn't see the Twelve Kingdoms novels on the list so I will take that as a good sign. Though I doubt this will be the last list to come out, but I hope it is.

Also thank you ANN for keeping me updated on the situation. I was reading over on another thread that some people think this shouldn't be news. So I would just like to say I think it is, and that this is the kind of information that a person like me needs.
