| I still don't understand how he has never had a single anime released in the US. He is the God of sport and/or slice of life. Everyone one of his mangas gets long running anime like H2 , Touch, Cross game, and not one has made it to the the US, and given the crap we get I do not know why. |

Those are not for otaku buyers. Otaku get hives just thinking about physical exertion, let alone buying a video of it.  |

Unfortunatly ,if I am not mistaken, Cross Game did poor in sales in Japan that may be the reason why they don't want to license it .Though I wished they would do it in France just like they did for many of his animes like Touch . Moreover I can't buy the japanese DVDs since just one volume costs more than 50 euros ... .
By the way I feel like the scan looks like Cross Game ^^ . |

I love all his manga (even if I think H2 is way too long), and I'm glad he is starting a new one and most of his works are released here in Italy.  |
