Despite Stu and TP mumblings... This makes me happy! I can at least finally complete my Hetalias! It appears that vol 5 was the last volume printed in Japan. Is it the official last volume, knowing that the mangaka is now working on another project, or have more chapters been made since then?

According to the encyclopedia page, only 5 volumes were published in Japan.

I'm happy to hear this. I think the manga is actually funnier than the anime, so this is a definite purchase for me.

A sixth volume will be released this fall. Hetalia runs monthly in Comic Birz. Smile

This gives me some hope that maybe they will someday release more Fate/Stay Night Graphic Novels. The latest version by Dat Nishiwaki I consider far more better than the TV series. The manga sadly stop at Volume 11.

Levy has no shame, he's such a narcissist. I hope TP will resume publishing Gakuen Alice, and Good Witch of the West as well, but with Levy still in charge I don't hold much hope of it. Rolling Eyes

Hitler is informed of the Tokyopop shutdown ending the Hetalia manga.

I refuse to support anything Stu Levy so much as touches until Future Diary volumes 11 and 12 are released.

It was two volumes away from being done. Two. It's incredibly frustrating. And I refuse to pad Levy's wallet with Hetalia dollars when he's obviously just taking advantage of a diehard fandom for a quick buck.

I can understand his involvement with the first three volumes, but what role does he have for these two?

Well, hopefully this'll see RightStuf start branching out in the manga world.
